So you're saying this change is not permanent? :unsure:
No not sure where you got that. As far as I know this is the schedule

FAIL/ They played Lady Gaga as they went to break during the 8pm hour of WC. /FAIL
 :facepalm:

Interesting...did someone catch a clip of this? I wonder what song it was; I can't imagine Lady Gaga as production music. :blink:

We don't have a dedicated HD thread?

TWC HD is here.  Pretty looking thing.  HD Local is super smooth (smoother than video on YouTube).  No HD STAR here yet.

The HD local is running at around 60fps. Not much can capture that

Damn tuners and deinterlaced recording are to blame in a way :rofl2: but its neat to see it at 60fps. In fact when i first got TWC HD i was like amazed at how smooth it was cuz it wasnt that smooth on Youtube :P
I've gone off on a journey to be a moderator at another forum, but this place will forever remain home for me~

We used too...what happened to it, Martin? :blink: I know it hadn't been used in awhile, so is that the reason? :dunno:

It was locked due to lack of activity and because I didn't think there was a demand for it. Programming Graphics/TWC and Your Cable Company took the place of it I thought. If you all want to see it open we can certainly do that :yes:

At 9:30 something this morning, there was a travel map with the XL Fog, and Sunny icons on it.

Really? :o That must have been a sight to behold. I didn't know TWC still had the XL icons outside of the XL itself.

LO8 L Bar  on DP!!!!!  I saw it at the top of 2PM CT DP It just like the testing TWC did in late september during DP  the 16%LDL opened and closed the segment and the L Bar was in the middle. No L Bar in the 2:10 segment.  When TWC did it, it did not look like an error to me.

Might have been a test for the other longform programming? (other than SS 5-7pm EST)
