The Cubs Channel 668_1 HD has the Giants Feed. The Giants HD Feed has the Reds Feed. What Yo Yo at DirecTv is pushing these buttons for the Game Feeds? This is All Wrong.
Well The Giants feed has been switched to the Correct Feed in HD. But Channel 668_1 which is supposed to be dedicated to Comcast Sportsnet Chicago's HD Alternate Feed is still showing the Giants Feed.

I'm getting 2 feeds from the Giants though in HD and as a Transplanted Cubs Fan I still want the Cubs Feed. I guess I could watch the Game on Channel 668 but it's not in HD
I just figured it out I think. As soon as the White Sox-Cleveland Indians game goes final they will probably have the Cubs-Giants game from Comcast Sportsnet Chicago in HD on Channel 640.
Apparently CSN Chicago is still going to do Sox Post Game Live even though they're already past the allotted timeslot. After that, they'll switch to the Cubs HD telecast.
Channel 640 is telling me "This Program is not available in your area" What The Hell is going on? DirecTv needs to get with the program. The Cubs Telecast is supposed to be available in HD.
I am still not receiving this game from Comcast Sportsnet Chicago in HD and I'm supposed to be able to. it's telling me the program is not available to my area (727)
I was watching the game on EI -- ch. 746-1. That was the HD feed of the Cubs broadcast.
The HD feed of the Cubs broadcast was cut off sometime in the late innings. I'm not sure exactly when it happened because I was doing other things while the game was on. I was watching the HD feed one minute and when I came back my TV was on ch. 746 and 746-1 was dead.
I called DirecTV and the specialist I talked to said that MLB had blacked it out. I pointed out that I wasn't in the Cubs blackout area AND that I could still see the game on three other channels (the Cubs SD feed and the Giants SD and HD feeds) AND I had already watched 7+ innings on the Cubs HD feed. The specialist said she understood but that blackouts came from either the teams or MLB and they had no control over it.
So, basically they want me to believe that the Cubs picked up the phone and told someone at DirecTV to black out only the HD feed of the game more than halfway through it. Is that even possible? Smells like a mouse to me.

You gotta love it. I called 2 weeks ago about this issue with the Dodgers HD feed. One minute I'm watching the game the next minute it tells me "blacked out in my area" I'm in Minnesota.. I called and the CSR said the same thing MLB makes the blackout rules. What a bunch of crap.
Still not as bad as Mega March Madness. At one point all four feeds were blacked out for about 45 minutes.
