1080p HD Channels?

[alkax3]

I was wondering will there be a 1080p version of HBO and other movie channels? Cuz theyre really popular and it would be good to have those. Does NFPS have any plans for it?

EDIT: I Meant live channels

I think you may want to consider the bandwidth requirements for 1080p streams. iks doesn't offer 1080p only 1080i at the best, thks

sure they have plans. What them are not many know, nor would we want to announce upcoming plans, as sometimes they don't always work out. Then who looks like the fool ?

This is not that hard to figure out and reasons why you received no response on this thread is not that hard to figure out either. Don't be so surprised :eek

And yea, what K00lKatT said too.

There's also security to think of, bunch of those streams would be a dead giveaway..JMO

Maybe im a n00b but cant they follow the cable TV strategy where you have the choice for both. I mean not all channels but movie channels would be good

Not many, all HBOs and some channels like AMC, TBS... But the truth is that is not true HD as long as the video is in motion. Just like youtube where you select 1080p but still you get big squares while the camera is moving.
