Hey All,

Did TWC show the Packers game in HD?  I saw the replay and it was NOT in HD, what about the live call?

If it was not in HD, I wonder if stations are still having problems because of the flooding?

It was in HD.  

I'm not sure if it was just me, but picture quality seemed a bit better than last year's pre-season games on WTMJ.

The game was in HD.   The graphics appeared to be CBS graphics with the eye logo replaced with the "G" logo.  Quality was fine.

It was in HD, but I know why there might be some confusion here.

The main field cameras were in HD and that's what we saw for most of the broadcast. But there were a few odd cameras here and there (reverse angles and a couple of others) are in 4:3 SD and were just used for replays. It was that way last year also. Probably it arises out of CBS not having their full compliment of HD equipment like they would for a normal regular season game, and of course because pre-season to us and the NFL is CBS's 'dress rehearsal' for their crews.
