Did anyone else notice that the Texans-Dolphins game was not carried in HD for Sunday Ticket? I wouldn't have even known the game was broadcast in HD except that while I was watching the Red Zone HD channel, they jumped to the Texans-Dolphins game and lo and behold it was in HD. The only place it was carried on ST was channel 704 in highly compressed SD.
Am I incorrect in assuming we were promised that each and every HD game would be passed along to us as SuperFan subscribers? Did they run out of bandwidth to put this HD game up?
I would like some answers on this. If anyone knows who to contact at D* ,other than a clueless CSR, I would appreciate it.

I have no idea why it was not carried but we were not promised every HD game, just over 180 HD games.

I believe it has been suggested elsewhere on this board that they dropped 1 HD game so that they could show the MLB playoff games in HD for those without MPEG4.
I do believe it had to do with the bandwidth required for the MLB playoffs on TBS.

180 would be approximately 95% of the projected number of HD games FOX and CBS will do this season.

Did anyone receive this game OTA in HD? There have been other games captured in HD that have not been broadcast via Super Fan this year. Never would have noticed except for the highlights on NBC Countdown. I am also displeased that the HD games have to share channels. Often the early games will run late and you lose a portion of the first quarter of the late games.

Local stations had this game in HD, only ST was without this game in HD.

I realize it is little consolation but next year this wont be a problem.

Superfan was only $99 to get the game in SD.
yea for $99 a year u get to hear/see Andrew_Siciliano (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_Siciliano) take u to all the best games every year lol.
but as to why the game was unavailable im guess because of bandwidth issue and mlb playoffs coverage.
im starting to see mpeg 4 nhl ci channels in the guide so hopefully next year when cbs does all games in HD, this will be correct.
