mbhcity 3 Posted September 10, 2008 Posted September 10, 2008 Ellen is going HD this Monday. She moved from NBC Burbank to Warner Bros. I'm sure all of you guys know this, lol. The 'EllenCam' though, is back. And unfortunately, they have the same set. =/ They just added some plants to it. http://ellen.warnerbros.com/show/ellencam/cam2.php It'll be exciting to see how everything looks in HD though, I had been wondering when it was going to happen and now it is. Same with Entertainment Tonight, since they too are going HD this Monday. They're graphics are already amazing, and they probably look even better in HD. Oprah also went HD! It looks amazing!
mdotto9 0 Posted October 20, 2008 Posted October 20, 2008 I've seen syndicated episodes of CSI: Miami in HD on WCCO 4.
rv65 3 Posted October 20, 2008 Posted October 20, 2008 Desperate Housewives are now available in HD syndication. Same thing with Stargate Atlantis or SG-1. Also Legend of the Seeker is a new Syndicated show thats also in HD if the station is willing to buy it. I hope KSWB gets some HD syndication equipment for 2 1/2 men and Legend of the Seeker. Would be a good thing for them. House is also in syndication by NBCU not 20th century. A rep for NBCU says maybe next year.
ib-td 1 Posted October 21, 2008 Posted October 21, 2008 Oprah also went HD! It looks amazing! too bad her content sucks
james32746 8 Posted October 21, 2008 Posted October 21, 2008 WESH/WKCF and WFTV/WRDQ have equipment to broadcast HD syndicated programs CSI (WKCF) CSI: Miami (WFTV/WRDQ) Ellen (WESH) Entertainment Tonight (WESH) Everybody Loves Raymond (WKCF) Insider (WRDQ) Jeopardy (WFTV) Lost (WRDQ) Oprah (WFTV/WRDQ) Wheel of Fortune (WFTV) WKMG and WOFL/WRBW does not have equipment to broadcast HD syndicated programs (WOFL/WRBW does have the capability of airing non-network live HD broadcasts though because WOFL airs Mike and Juliet and both air college football from Raycom in HD). They probably do not have the proper recording and playback equipment necessary to air the following in HD Desparate Housewives (WRBW) Dr. Phil (WKMG) Legend of The Seeker (WKMG) Two and Half Men (WRBW)
tyrannical bastard 4094 Posted October 24, 2008 Posted October 24, 2008 Here in Mobile, not a single syndicated show is being carried in HD by any of the local stations. I'm sure this is an issue in smaller markets outside of the Eastern or Pacific time zones that don't have the capability or the money to carry (and time-shift) HD programming. But here, I'll place the blame on cheap ownership of the stations here. You would think the program providers would help make their shows HD in a particular market. Update...WEAR is now showing Ellen & The Insider in HD. Raycom Sports is also carrying SEC games in HD on WJTC.
Bucc 4 Posted November 11, 2008 Posted November 11, 2008 Live! just announced they are going HD January 5th '09 and people can create a new theme song for them, and will have new graphics
CircleSeven 1965 Posted November 11, 2008 Posted November 11, 2008 Live! just announced they are going HD January 5th '09 and people can create a new theme song for them, and will have new graphics I hope in God they don't change the Palmer theme.
Bucc 4 Posted November 11, 2008 Posted November 11, 2008 I hope in God they don't change the Palmer theme. Well I think they might, cuz they say "a new theme song to go along with our new opening!"

rv65 3 Posted November 15, 2008 Posted November 15, 2008 WBFF now has syndicated American Chopper in HD. XHDTV is also carrying a syndicated SD version. Looks like Discovery is syndicating it. XHDTV is planning a digital station by 2.17.09.
rv65 3 Posted November 15, 2008 Posted November 15, 2008 KNSD is now airing Ellen in HD but not Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy. Maybe Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy will go HD later.
Ntropolis 600 Posted November 15, 2008 Posted November 15, 2008 KNSD is now airing Ellen in HD but not Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy. Maybe Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy will go HD later. Weird... if they can carry Ellen in HD they should be able to carry Wheel and J...
ProButtonPusher 230 Posted November 15, 2008 Posted November 15, 2008 Well they're coming from different syndication distributors, so it makes sense in that they're in the process of buying new equipment, and happened to get Ellen off the ground first.
A3N 1002 Posted November 15, 2008 Posted November 15, 2008 Well, from what I read, NBC recently upgraded its Burbank location that allows them to play HD shows and commercials. Ellen is shown on KNSD as well as on KNBC in L.A. so it was much easier to get Ellen shown in HD in San Diego than Wheel/Jeopardy. Wheel and Jeopardy might be shown in HD later this year or early next year. Hopefully this is a step closer to HD news.
Weeters 1981 Posted November 17, 2008 Posted November 17, 2008 "Everyone get to see me in HIGHHHHHHHHHHH DEFINITIONNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!"
ProButtonPusher 230 Posted November 17, 2008 Posted November 17, 2008 Well, from what I read, NBC recently upgraded its Burbank location that allows them to play HD shows and commercials. Wait....NBC Network out of Burbank? They've been able to do HD programming for a while for the Network out of Burbank - When New York is off, Burbank is running the shows (if you ever notice on your local affiliates that the HD is ahead of the SD, NBC is originating from Burbank)
A3N 1002 Posted November 17, 2008 Posted November 17, 2008 Wait....NBC Network out of Burbank? They've been able to do HD programming for a while for the Network out of Burbank - When New York is off, Burbank is running the shows (if you ever notice on your local affiliates that the HD is ahead of the SD, NBC is originating from Burbank) What I meant to say is that the new servers allow NBC to distribute syndicated shows and commercials in HD to its O&O's.
ProButtonPusher 230 Posted November 17, 2008 Posted November 17, 2008 What I meant to say is that the new servers allow NBC to distribute syndicated shows and commercials in HD to its O&O's. Ah, okay. That makes sense now.
DMA 136 Posted November 17, 2008 Posted November 17, 2008 What I meant to say is that the new servers allow NBC to distribute syndicated shows and commercials in HD to its O&O's. WNBC has no syndicated shows in HD, however. Ellen is in SD.
mbhcity 3 Posted November 17, 2008 Posted November 17, 2008 WNBC has no syndicated shows in HD, however. Ellen is in SD. Yep, Ellen is in HD on KNBC.
rv65 3 Posted November 17, 2008 Posted November 17, 2008 Well' date=' from what I read, NBC recently upgraded its Burbank location that allows them to play HD shows and commercials.

Wheel and Jeopardy might be shown in HD later this year or early next year. Hopefully this is a step closer to HD news.[/quote'] WRC and WCAU are both in the HD news process. They are using the HD graphics for KNSD's newscast. So KNSD could be after WRC and WCAU.
Ntropolis 600 Posted November 19, 2008 Posted November 19, 2008 I HAve a Question is this FOX HD bug New? Yes. Are all FOX stations using this? I know before the individual stations inserted their own logo... WVBT used the ugly big blue FOX logo, WFXB used their FXB FOX TV logo, WNYW used their logo.
rv65 3 Posted November 19, 2008 Posted November 19, 2008 Thats a characteristic of the splicer. All Fox stations use the splicer for HD. The splicer switches back to the station logo. The Fox HD bug has been out for a couple of months. So it's now new.
rv65 3 Posted December 4, 2008 Posted December 4, 2008 NBC has upgraded KNSD to do HD syndication. Ellen is in HD now WOF and Jeopardy are now in HD. WOF went HD last night. Jeopardy will be in HD tonight. KNBC and KNSD share the same master control.
