The only 1080p channel that we know of is our own the Landscape Channel - details of which can be found at http://www.landscapehd.com
If you want to see us keep your ears and eyes open for Landscape as we are now cloud delivered.

And today I saw the first broadcast 1080p 59.94 video at work.
Unfortunately we don't have the the necessary option card in the Sony
SRW-5800 deck to actually play it back properly so we saw alternate
fields of picture and green background. I work in the terrestrial
broadcast end so the FCC says what we can and can't do, so from my end
it doesn't mean anything as we're not allowed to send it to you until
it gets converted to 1080i 59.94.

Er, sounds interesting, but a look at the website doesn't seem to
indicate how one actually obtains said channel in N. California....

Directv uses 1080p for some of the pay-per-view channels. Currently there
are 5 films available. The 1080p logo shows up in the on-screen guide.

Is that the rate of CableCast HD?? i.e.. twice 29.97 ?
