AFAIK different production companies produced each of the three parts - the first used HD, the other two seemingly didn't.

I'd figured that as well - but if they weren't producing last night's one in HD, why go to the trouble of renting HD lenses?

Sadly the second "Big Blue" (cuttlefish) tonight was not hi-def either. Not even particularly good SD.

But at least the up-convert doesn't have a watermark :-)

Still a fascinating subject, and I'll watch it later.

I don't support anyone outside Perth got an HD feed?

Only 'Big Blue' and 'The Bridge' were HD. Nothing else will be HD.

That's a shame... But at least I got a nice capture of "The Bridge" to marvel at once I get my full-HD display (a purchase that's been indefinitely postponed due to Sony and Samsung's LCD panel issues and Sony's monetary greed :blink: )

I'm advised that only "Big Blue" and "The Bridge" were supplied and transmitted in HD.

"Chifley" will be in HD, but I'm not sure about the audio on it. (Check with Gepm?)

Enjoy,

Oops - That should read "Curtin" not Big Ben - sorry - Old Timers Disease! :blink:

You sure it wasn't just someone at ABC forgetting to push the right button? Just asking.

Yes I am sure, I don't just happen to 'guess' when there will be an ABC HD transmission. :blink:

(except maybe when I made the incorrect assumption that the entire series would be HD - I was actually only informed about the first episode, so it was all my doing)

There are a couple of other Australian HD broadcasts coming up, but airdates not confirmed yet.

You can look forward to the 13/14th of May for 2 x 2 hr HD of the 'Bastard Boys". The first HD ABC 'drama' about the Patrick's union fight.

I don't normaly like 'drama'/'politcal style' programs, but this is great.

The last 3 (I think) eps of the West Wing are good too.

Sorry Gepm,

Do you know the audio format for the native HD program "Curtin" yet - I think it airs before "Bastard Boys" ???

Cheers,

Jet :ph34r:

Was this in HD anywhere last night? It appeared to be upscaled here in Perth.
