I just saw the HD LF on my SD feed. Is this the thing now? or a blooper? it was at 4:09PMEDT
Definitely a blooper. Or Dish Network might have screwed up something over there, who knows.

I don't think its a blooper. Its in a new flavor that isn't on the regular HD one. It just happened again too @ 4:18. Also a logo in the upper right corner was the YWT one.

Is the Dish Network Intellistar LDL cuing over the HD LF?
EDIT: Scratch that. Turns out the SD Satellite LF updated.

Its not cuing over to it. It starts as the HD LF. I think TWC may have finally made the SD look like the HD. It has a slightly different design than i've seen of the actual HD version.
EDIT: It is a new version, no blooper.

The moon almanac appearing at :48 was indeed an error. This should be corrected as of this afternoon.

Apparently i lied about no LOT8s bugs anymore... a new one debuted



As for the animated ads, the sponsor ads will still animate just as they did before August 2008 :happy:

I have a question about the XL:

Does the XL show road markers for US roads? I've only seen them on IntelliStar's. Thanks in advance for any help.

Only places in major markets with XLs containing a metro map can US and state highway markers be seen; the XLs radar map is just a large file with all the interstate highway markers embedded into it, while the IS's maps have the borders as a seperate overlay from the actual map image, thus making any road markers movable and editable  :yes:

I'm a weatherman. I love my weather. I would love to go any trips if the weather is nicer.

The LDL turns on and off every 10 minutes during Special Weather Coverage.
