HD LF issues
« on: May 20, 2008, 01:44:53 AM »
I don't think there's a thread like this here, so here it is.

The HD LF just failed massively during the 12:38 AM CT LF. Remember how the SD one froze the weekend before last? Now the HD LF is frozen on the national outlook for Tuesday (from the 1-minute flavor). Two minutes of staring at the national map is always fun. I wonder if they have someone monitoring the HD LF right now to spot this problem.

The HD channel is falling apart. SD is showing EEWC; HD is showing commercials right now. :huh:

1:03 CT - The HD channel tried to do an LF, but the screen went black and switched over to the rebroadcast of EEWC already in progress.

Now a recording of the 11:08 PM CT HD LF is playing on both the HD and SD channels. WTF? I wish someone with a STAR was up to tell us if the LF is cuing or not. It seems, however, that everyone is watching the HD feed right now, meaning that no STARs are currently active. The DirecTV SD Intellistar certainly isn't working right now.

This is the same sort of thing we saw around the holidays when they instituted that annoying Travel Box graphic. They better not be pulling any of that again.

Woah, that got really weird at 1:58 AM CT. First the HD LF played on the SD channel per the norm tonight, but then suddenly Adam Berg's EEWC from Sunday night started playing! Then the feed kept switching between the SD emergency feed and Adam Berg until finally they settled on the emergency feed for the remainder of the LF period. At the top of the hour, *tonight's* EEWC started playing again, but everyone is still seeing the HD feed.

I'll be recording the SD feed until 5 AM CT, including the hour with the aforementioned error.

Yeah, I saw that. I figured they'd have to fix it as they got ready to go live.

HD feed is fine as well now.

Actually this didn't happen to me, because I have Satellite. I think you recorded probably at 1:58 AM CDT. I recorded Evening Edition West Coast, but apparently there was no HD LF issues for me since I have Dish Network
