Hey it sounds great and works great if you can work around the remote. I paid next to nothing for mine last Christmas. The only regret is that remote.

The BBC World News HD is high up on my wish list. Still hoping they will get a deal done with Starz so we can have a few more of those in HD.

Something interesting to look for this year is Speed becoming Fox Sports One and possibly Fuel becoming Fox Sports Two, Fox Soccer becoming Fox Sports Three and Fox Soccer Plus becoming Fox Sports Four.

Nayan,

It would not surprise me at all on those Fox Sports Channels.

BBC World News HD shows things are still coming and if a Starz deal gets done, we should have a steady stream of HD for at least one more year.

BTW: Apparently BBC America is moving to standard service for TWC NYC so a renewal deal likely got done here.

What we need is more Fox Sports Channels but then ESPN will have to counter added a 3/4/5 and so on

I have the VSB200 soundbar and I got my BH remote to work with it easily. I'm pretty sure I just used the easy set-up going through the codes one by one with the channel button. It was over a year ago, so I'm not 100% sure.

Kevin came across some interesting new additions in The TWC Kansas City notice that are being added to their Sports Pass that likely are in the cards for us.

TV Games (SD Only)
HRTV (SD Only)
Universal Sports Net HD
One World Sports HD
Outside Television HD
Fight Now HD

The are 3 HD channels above that were just finding out about.

With BBC World News HD being added in TWC markets too (SD Only in KC), This means we could have more in our notice this month than we think.
post #15757 of 16333
Yup, just what I want; more channels I'll never watch that Bright House can use as a reason for raising my bill.rolleyes.gif
post #15758 of 16333
I'm pretty sure that if channels were ala carte you'd be paying heck lot more. I may not watch many of the channels offered now but I am sure some do so I don't mind paying to subsidize their channels like they do mine smile.gif.
post #15759 of 16333
Maybe instead of ala carte, you build your own bundles to keep the cost down like group any 40 channels or 80, or.... etc. Then you could possibly maintain some lower costs over just getting the specific channels you want.
post #15760 of 16333
All of those channels outside BBC World News are likely going to be on Sports Pass which is already it's own tier.

I have noticed that almost every time TWC announces a channel to be in a specific tier bright house has it in the same tier shortly after or before the adds hit TWC. I really think that programming is not the only thing that TWC and Bright House share. I think they share technology and system designs such as having SDV and Navigator/startover/lookback.

+1, I doubt that anyone has more than 40 channels in their favorites. If I could lose the 160 channels I don't watch and lower my bill......wink.gif


Hey Bright House! How about a "Pick 40"?? biggrin.gif


Yeah, I know....Bright House lower my bill???eek.gif
post #15763 of 16333
If you count sports then yes I have well over 40 in my faves smile.gif.

One World Sports HD also has an Austrian Channel that's does show lots of Local Sports that you see on other Networks here in the states like NBA,MLB and so on.

Can't wait for some professional badminton action! Gotta love that it looks like BH will finally offer the ultimate channels for gambling degenerates in TVG & HRTV.

I'm thinking about cancelling the Spanish package that I ordered when beIN Sports was launched because I just don't watch their Spanish channel that match and a lot of that is because channel placement. Currently the Spanish channel is on channel 1919 and the English version is on 1163. If BH put the Spanish channel on 1164 I would be more apt to check it out but 1919 is pretty much out of range of all of the other sports channels and it's pretty much out of sight out of mind. I would think BH would get more orders for the Spanish package if they put the beIN Sport channels next to each other because I could see some people impulsively ordering the Spanish package if there was something they wanted to watch that wasn't available on the English channel when flipping channels.

I have the sports package and I have beIN on there. That One World Sports looks cool and I would probably watch that.

I would love to see those HD channel added to my market smile.gif We are at 143 HD channels right now. I might actually get those channels because TWC has seemed lately to give the midwest systems the same channel adds as the Texas region fingers crossed.

Oh and TWC Sportsnet and TWC Deportes seem to be offering games that say you team is the Dallas Mavericks you can watch the game with LA sports casters live and it is not blacked out but you can't watch any other games besides your local markets team vs. the lakers. I wonder if this will be the same for the Galaxy games?
post #15770 of 16333
These notices the past week with BBC World News SD/HD and the new sports channels for KC and Kentucky make this week's notice intriguing.

It's nice to see new HD and it seems like TWC/BHn is really going to want to max out that Sports Pass. Getting the Racing Networks and adding out of market RSN's is making their Sports Pass better than Direct TV's.

Eventually, I think we will eventually get more Fox Sports RSN's and then if they decide to add the Comcast ones, we might literally have all Sports Channels with the exception of LongHorn Network.

Sports Pass jumped to $10 a month or so after NFL RedZone and adding the new services in those TWC areas (I'm betting those channels were cheap) will justify the jump.

Then again, we might get nothing in the notice but if we do not, these additions allow BHN to keep giving us a steady stream of HD for at least another year.

Now, give us Sundance HD already.smile.gif
post #15771 of 16333
Found out from Yimitz that his paper does not arrive on Thursdays until mid to late afternoon.

So, we will not get the notice in the morning unless BHN goes early with their notice here. We will probably get ours Friday but given how the notices have been smilar across BHn systems the past two years, it will provide hints as to what we can expect.
post #15772 of 16333
Hopefully we'll get some nice HD goodies to end the year smile.gif.
post #15773 of 16333
I did not get my paper this morning. Doubt there is anything till Friday though but if someone got it, please check through it.

GODTV is coming.
post #15775 of 16333
mgsports,

?
post #15776 of 16333
GODTV is on WACX-DT 55.2. It's a broadcast channel. Not one of the HD additions being discussed.
post #15777 of 16333
What I would like to see added is the rest of the Away and Home team feeds in HD for MLB Extra innings so I can drop mlbtv for a more reliable stream.
post #15778 of 16333
Peter,

I think those eventually could come. They could at least make Game 10-14 available in HD along with Team 10.

BTW: No notice today so we will get it tomorrow. We will get a likely peak of ours when Yimitz gets his Michigan paper late afternoon to early evening and I know Kevin is going to dig up The Indiana notice for us in the early morning hours tomorrow.

May we get some nice HD announced.

I doubt they will, as they haven't added any of the other religious sub-channels.
