dryfry Posted March 15, 2007 Posted March 15, 2007 Last night 14/3/07 I switched on Ten HD to have a look at House and my stb a Hotchip ODT4000 reported it as being in SD. This morning I again tuned into TEN HD for the morning program with David and Kim and again it was in standard definition so I re-tuned Ten in but still no HD. Is anyone else getting the same?
minchjp Posted March 15, 2007 Posted March 15, 2007 I watched house in HD, can't comment on 9am but House was in HD last night (as was letterman)
dryfry Posted March 15, 2007 Author Posted March 15, 2007 Oh well looks like time to ditch the hotchip..
LBM Posted March 15, 2007 Posted March 15, 2007 This happens all the time now, I have seen it around three or four times this month alone. At late night (during those religious shows), they switch off HD, add the Ten 1-4 and have the SD running at 704x576. I have no idea why but all I can think of is that your STB hasn't switched back (this is Melbourne is usually happens so it might have been the only time for you).

dryfry Posted March 15, 2007 Author Posted March 15, 2007 I may just hold onto it for the moment as ABC HD and 9 HD are OK on the hotchip... Hopefully Ten are just getting ready for HD AFL and are simply testing things out .
obliviON Posted March 16, 2007 Posted March 16, 2007 I remember having the same issues with Ten HD on my Hotchip 4000. It would report it as SD and the picture would look SD. However, when I power cycled the box (turned it off and on at the wall) Ten HD came back up. This happened at least 3-4 times. I have no idea why!
BribieG Posted March 16, 2007 Posted March 16, 2007 Not just ten, sometimes on 9 Kerri Anne is in SD once or twice a week. As a shift worker I sometimes have KA on in the background just for some eye candy and the cooking segments, not much else to watch that time of day but I'm not a real fan. However I got a bit annoyed about the HD then SD and then HD thing so rang 9 in Bris and an engineer got back to me (amazingly) and said "just a glitch, had to change satellite a couple of times this week". Obviously outside the ken of us mere mortals
