Re: New VOD New Content / Storage Upgrades..
No SHOHD On Demand in my list, but MGMHD appeared today.
Can't play them though.... "Error Occurred: This asset is sold as part of a package. Please call 1800RINGRCN to order (SRM-9008)".
Why even put it in the menu if we can't play them in the LHV  TEASE!

| I get the MGM HD channel, but the OD MGM HD says I need to subscribe to a package.
I do not subscribe the HD tier with HD net, etc, however I have been getting the MGM channel since it launched post crush.
Also I am not seeing any of the other content Jason mentioned above, such as more Starz HD, WE HD, AMC HD. |

Same. He did say Live now or very soon, but still 90% of what he listed 2 weeks ago isn't live yet.
said by rcnman :New Content that all should be live now or very soon : HD ON DEMAND : We are adding more content to the Starz HD folder. MGM HD (25 Hours of HD Movies) (Must have MGM Channel) IFC Free (HD) We TV (HD) AMC (HD) Music Choice (HD) HD Music Videos  MGM HD (25 Hours of HD Movies) (Must have MGM Channel) - There, but doesn't work
IFC Free (HD) - Not there
We TV (HD) - Not there
AMC (HD) - Not there
Music Choice (HD) HD Music Videos - Some new videos, still not a 'large' selection. Most are upscaled, I couldn't find any with 5.1 audio, even though the guide says HD 5.1 Audio.
So basically I'll give credit for half of Music Choice since there isn't a big selection, the rest get strikes. 1/2 star out of 5. FAIL.

FAIL. -Derek- Hi everyone, it took a little longer to get the HD items pitched, They are there but just haven't gone live yet.. Here some details :
In the HD on Demand Folder :
We TV has 2 sub folders :
The Locater and Secret Lives : Both go live on about 6/22
IFC Free has an Anime Package that goes live 6/25
AMC Folder is there but content is still loading..
It's sorta hard to explain but VOD content gets pitched in batches and only a certain amount at a time. It will take some time to build up a full library in the HD section, but in the end the HD library should match the SD library for these networks in the Free Extras Folder.
There some other items on the horizon as well which I will post when it's closer to launch.
Regarding MGM, It has a full library and you must subscribe to the HD expanded pack to get access to that library. If you do and you still are getting a error that it's part of a package them PM me your account info or box info and I'll get it fixed.

We don't have the option to get an extended package, yet anyway. Is there a possibility I'd be able to call your service department and get it working for me? I'd watch some of the movies in there, but can't because I can't subscribe to the extended HD Tier because we're not crushed.
Jason, please advise as I wanna watch some of the VOD movies in the TMC folder!!!

1 edit | I agree that RCN should continue to add HD programming to its On Demand and HD channels to its lineup.
I noticed Cartoon Network (633) and LiveWell (618) were added to our HD channel lineup. I counted that we now have 82 HD channels (attached). We had more HD channels before Cinemax was removed from our package in May. |
