I have viewsat hd 9000 and I have echo3 61.5 bird, yesterday when i rescanned I got new 17 hd channels with no video for example channels numbers 502,505,507,510,512,513,516,518,521,524,525,527 etc.
I have all in one 8psk card installed.
below is the setting on TP it got scanned with no video.
[B]TP:12545 S/R:20000 Pol:V FEC:5/6 MOD:DVB[/B].
I tried to change it to
[B]TP:12545 S/R:21500 Pol:V FEC:2/3 MOD:TURBO8[/B].
but still no video.

I know hd 9000 supports 1080i and 720p, and these channels are comming in 1080p.
My question is, Does it still possible to get these channels in 1080i with some settings as I tried to do above or will there be new bin comming with this support?
Does any body testing this?

No broadcaster is using 1080P, the 1080P is downloaded to harddrive from the satellite, just like downloading on the internet.

1080p is a 1080i upscale, Yor receiver and yor HDTV must be able to support it

What yo scanned is probably 119

But I do know DN is doing changes to their HD services and conducting many tests
When that fully happens yor 8PSK will be a scrap metal and yor FTA HD receiver will be as good as the $120 regular SD receivers
I don't think they are fully ready with it yet

I adviced against HD FTA receivers in the past

Read it says nothing about channels in 1080P, Dish network gets there programming from C-band just like every other cable or mini dish provider, there is no broadcaster distribution 1080p to there customers, the only programming in 1080P is there downloads. I am Legend was the first 1080P download from Dish, it's simple to under stand, it would be impossible for them to send there customers 1080P on a channel as it does not exist, plus it would take at least 15mbps using H.264 DVB-S2 so if Dish ever did 1080P they would probably try using 10-12mbps and it would look like crap just like there current SD and HD, garbage.

If you want 1080P download it or get a blu ray player.
