I know it is often hard for people to find out what is on the PBS demo channel, but I notice that next week, PBS is broadcasting Nova "Cracking the Code of Life" in HD next week.

The times this is on is listed here.

This should be two hours of glorious high definition on a very interesting subject.

I only wish that they would rerun "Life's Greatest Miracle" and "Runaway Universe" as well.  Both of these are suppose to have awesome 1080i pictures and are very interesting subjects as well.

Great.... So now how do we find out if and when it'll be in HD on WMVS?

kjnorman

So, this this now an advantage to the TWC channel 710 (aka PBS Demo)??    

I have noticed that the WMVS HDTV listing page has changed.  See here.  Perhaps this will finally give you the schedule you want (though probably after they have shown Nova...)

Oh yeah that's real good news.  That page has been like that for over 3 months.  It is 2/3's thru August and still no listing on that page.  Sounds like a government project...delay, delay, oops never mind.

Oh well, I thought it had changed...

Last time I checked it was an "Under construction" kind of deal.  This was the first time that I saw

As a follow up to this, I now notice that MPTV-HD now has a listing of their upcoming HDTV programs here.

But as for the 8pm Sunday demo listed -- NOT.  Just their normal 5 sub-channels -- one of which was wide-screen in a 4:3 signal (black bars on all 4 sides.)  Lovely.

borghe

I think it says the demos don't start until October.

I need to watch Reading Rainbow.  I thought it was Octember or Septober, or ???.

Even though it was my own stupidity, I'm STILL mad as hell.  Don't want to waste a mad.
