Saw it earlier today, must have been by mistake, as I couldn't find it again. Who will be the first to complain that it is not in HD

Yeah, with that ugly guy there, maybe it's best that it's not in HD.

Seriously, I can't wait to get home and check this out. It looks like a really neat feature.

So it looks like they are now using 8 video streams for the information channel now instead of just one and when you select one of the options it switches the video to that channel. Also, why put a 3 min. pause between the video loop. Why not just have the video loop as soon as it is finished.

Pressing exit when watching channel 1 causes the screen to go black. It will stay in this state until ya enter a new channel.

Its simply a relocation to Channel 1 - used to be on there already on the other channel for some time.

Watching her was better than Cinemax....I remember the days. Should have known she was Canadian.

Please bring her back! Thinking about her warrants hi-jacking a thread.
