Post by: IceManNYR on May 06, 2012, 05:03:11 PM: We still get the local forecast on the SD Weather Channel.
The HD channel has never had the local forecast on any FiOS systems.
If I'm correct no FiOS system has the IntelliStar 2.

Post by: IceManNYR on May 06, 2012, 05:54:04 PM: Yes' the SD channel has the standard IntelliStar graphics and local forecast.
The TWC App is an additional service that is a part of the FiOS Interactive TV Widgets.

Post by: TWCDude on May 08, 2012, 12:02:55 PM: Even I noticed that the TWC App has been added as well. That's good if I'm watching TWCHD and would like to get my LF w/o relying on the satellite feed.

Post by: HulkieD on January 22, 2014, 01:38:30 AM: Oh god I hope it holds up. The Intellistar for VHO8 is a little more stable, but still wonky. (Are maps supposed to be green or white?) I'd love to watch 619 and see local forecasts.

I just switched to Verizon Fios. Is this app still available? Is it only on the HD Channel?
