July 2008 LDL Update
« on: July 08, 2008, 10:01:19 PM »
 :unsure:I'm not real sure about this, but according to Wikipedia, the LDL Line went from Gray to blue. Here on DirecTV, the line is still gray. Did this update only affect IntelliSTAR users?

Yes, it appears that the change only effected the cable IntelliStar. The satellite IS didn't yet get the update.

I'm pretty sure the LDL your referring to is indeed only for the IS. I could be wrong though.  :unsure:

EDIT: Billy beat me.  :P

I compared my LDL with videos from last month and I don't see anything different about it. The top part has always been a greyish-blue.

The top strip has definately changed.



The June 2 version is gray while the July 1 version is now blue.

On the satellite IntelliStars, the top strip is still gray.

Proof:

From en.wikipedia.org/wiki/intellistar

July 1, 2008

The temperature font on the LDL was increased.
The upper part of the LDL was changed from a light-dark gray gradient to a light-dark blue gradient.
