For those of you subscribing to DirectTV, have SHOHD, and are using a Hughes E86 STB.

Any ideas why DirectTV SHOHD, Channel 543/91 is not listing the "HD" designation on any of it's programs in the EPG? There are many HD programs on SHOHD, but the "HD" designation is not being listed like it used to be. To find out if a program for SHOHD is truly showing in HD format one must refer to the HD Guides (TitanTV, HD Galaxy, VOOM, etc...) via the internet. All other HD Channels (HBO, HDNET, HDNM, EPNHD, etc...) are listing the "HD" designation in the EPG correctly when HD programs are being aired.

It has been like this for a few weeks now. Same thing happening in VOOM.

SHOHD has always been that way. Sometimes you get the HD. Try their hd schedule:

I say that's a very good reaon to avoid subscribing to Showtime. Another good reason is that there aren't really "many HD programs on SHOHD" -- it's more like there are occasional HD programs on SHOHD. And Showtime's movies are not, generally speaking, as good as HBO's.

Re: TitanTV -- Since the site's makeover on 1/6/04, the HD tag is no longer seen in any of their search results. (It is still seen in the grid.) They claim to be working on this oversight, but it must've turned into a difficult problem for them.
