Are the ads supposed to be overlapping the radar shots like this and is it happening on SD as well?  this is happening when programs go to break

This is something I find weird, we might be breaking record lows tonight and Sunday night with lows in the mid to upper 50's (which is very early this year, this is a pretty powerful cold front  ) Anyway the record low screen isn't showing up on my IntelliStar yet and even the NWS is forecasting colder with a low of 54 for tonight and tomorrow night, but they aren't mentioning it in their forecast discussion. 

Weve been getting lows in the mid 60s down here like how your seeng 50s

I usually stick to filming in the department stores, subway stations and parking garages

You did?  i dont see clips from you of elevators

THat's becuase I recorded them on my old Sony Handycam (the one where I recorded tuner-style TWC clips in 2007) but the USB doesn't work.

USB? The handycam is a DV camera and does not have USB transfer but uses firewire

Those who are into filming elevators, do NOT think about recording them at a shopping mall.... as I got out of the mall today a security guard stopped and asked me to remove all the videos I took of their elevators (since the malls are obscured with security cameras).

If its a Simon mall they will crack down. I assume you went to King of Prussia Mall btw

i just upgraded to Dish HD and noticed that the regular SD version of TWC aka 214 is a sec behind the HD feed. i wonder if the Satellite InterlliStar is the reason for the delay. and also on the HD feed, they didn't show the "Dish Network" logo and "Sirius Satellite Radio" logo on the "The Weather Channel is brought to by you local Cable operator" ad they show, so I guess the HD feed is a raw feed not hooked up to any Star.

HD feeds have no STAR unless your in Nashville or select suburbs with Comcast

As for the Cablevision NYC STAR i think that could just be a feed from TWC to them with the LF coming from one of their Viz computers
