We are a week away from the REAL start of the season and I cannot find an updated schedule anywhere. D* website says check back later, but in past years that page has been one of the last places to get an updated schedule.

No word on whether or not they're doing the channels 730/1 for the HD channels again this year anyone?

They are going to need to use more than 1 or 2 channels if they are showing up to 40 hd games per week as they claim. The other sports packages are using quite a few more without much of a pattern.

If I'm not mistaken MLB EI is MPEG 4 this year so they won't be using 730/1.

Yah I believe in a press statement they said all the games would be in mpeg 4 starting this season.

I didn't know 730/731 was mpeg 2 last year, I thought they still showed some of those in the channel 95 range.

The 2008 MLB EI schedule is now posted on the D* website.

Oh Snap! You're right 730/731 were MPEG 4 last year. Sorry my mind was going in different directions earlier. MLB HD games will be -1 feeds same as the NBA and NHL.

Does anyone know if I will be able to get this game tomorrow morning? I see that NESN is going to carry it. Boston and Oakland are both out of market teams for me and I have Sport Pack and MLB EI. However, the game is not listed as a MLB EI game on the schedule posted at D* today.

So, will I be blacked out or will I be able to watch this? Thanks.
