Gotta love the DVR. Most of this kind of thing is not time sensitive for me.
Hehe Well same here, just put the show as a series record. But I know alot of people here for some reason don't have DVR's.

Thats VERY strange. They must not have different East and West Coast Feeds.... Sucks for you West Coasters....
I've never felt like this was something that was unfortunate in any way. So my opinion is that it really doesn't "suck" for us on Pacific Standard time. There is a single feed, because of the nature of the type of live programming they have. Many smaller networks like National Geographic use the same type/time format.

Anyhow, I can't wait for the show to begin.
 
Speed, because of live programming can't be delayed by the cable company like channels such as Discovery, TLC, etc are. So yah... 10pm EDT means 7pm PDT.

Although most everyone airing at 10pm EDT / 7pm PDT will rerun the same programming @ 1am EDT / 10pm PDT. (a la Food Network)

It wouldn't be the cable company delaying the programing, the network would have a seperate West Feed. Thats how we and most Major Networks do it.
 
Networks, and HBO, Showtime, etc all do. But (to the best of my knowledge) the smaller cable networks don't. To my knowledge there is no Discovery East and Discovery West feed.... But that information is old.... they may have added channels.


But with Discovery, I watch my shows at the normal time, then its on again 3 hours later. So if they had seperate transponders for east and west, why would they do that?
 
I was actually going to mention that I notice a few of the smaller cable networks repeating programing throughout the night. Mostly I thought as filler but it would work to keep West Coast time.

I would have thought SPEED was a bigger network than that. Haven't noticed but does Speed repeat prime time 3hrs later? Also having alot of live programming is no excuse for not having a West Network. We do alot of Live Soccer and we just reshuffle programing for MTN and West Coast feeds.

Holy crap...that's my rendering!! When did this get out??

I did two different designs...the other which I liked much better but this is cool. So what's the deal?? Is this design being built or what? I just got back from Cabo and stumbled onto this and it's exciting to see my rendering on the home page of [FJ].

woot! Speed HD just launched yesterday. It would be awesome if this broadcasts in HD, but odds are it probably will only be SD. :(
<scurries gleefully yet hesitantly downstairs to TV to see if cable company added it knowing they probably didn't yet>

Sorry...I've been asked to keep it confidential therefore my lips are absolutely sealed.

The other rendering is much better than this one...I think anyways. I guess we'll see if it ever 'pops-up' somewhere down the road.

In the meantime...as I said...I'm sworn to secrecy.:evilgrin:

Oh...and heck no I wasn't surfin' the net in Cabo...too busy waitin' in line to see Sammy Hagar at the 'Wabo'!! Sammy rocked...but that's a story for another thread.

^^^^ i'll be waiting :)

can you tell us anything about the rendering? rendering of future product on the car perhaps?
It's a Focus .... has some color on it .... and some nice wheels...

If he could really give information, you think they would have any problems with him giving up the image?
