Is anyone else having the problem of some content being HD and some not?  I record Dirty 30, some record in HD, and some record in SD.  I contacted DIRECTV and they said to reset the receiver, which I did, but the recorrding in both SD and HD continues.  They also said that all content should be in HD.  Well, SPEED SPORT also recorded in SD. I have DIRECTV.  Anyone else?

I've got Directv and mine has been fine.   Everything has been in HD since they switched it to that format a few months ago.

Could you be watching some shows that were originally aired before the switch to HD, so some are in HD and some are not?

No.  I went through all my recordings that were SD, before the switch, and deleted them.  I was hoping that they would record again in HD.  Some did, and some didn't.  Last night a SPEED SPORT show recorded and it was in SD.  Some Dirty 30 record in HD, some don't.  I was online with Directv for an hour last night trying to go through my settings.  This is the weirdest thing ever.  I will move the 'set' recordings from one receiver to another, to see if that works.  Directv was telling me that they have never heard of this before.  I must have a morphadite receiver.  I can see it is just on my end, but I just don't know why....Thanks

I was thinking maybe they were recorded in SD, and the playback would be SD then. I also notice some of the recordings/shows on MAVTV are in SD. I have the HD channel programmed only on our DirecTV also, and removed our SD channel... I am thinking the issue is they were recorded in SD, so no matter what we do, it wont be anything but SD... just my $.02.

I had the same issue. What mine was I had a selection of channels under my Custom 1 settings. The old MAVTV was saved in my Custom 1 as SD. I deleted that channel out of my Custom 1 and added the new HD version of MAVTV to Custom 1 and it solved my problem... just a thought???

I looked into that but I had the correct settings.  Dirty 30 is obviously filmed in HD.  I can't see them using SD one week and HD another.  That is where the big problem lies.  I also believe this to be correct, that the channel is broadcast in HD, so even SD broadcasts will show on full screen, but be a poorer quality picture.  They don't send a different signal out because the program was filmed in SD.  It is like that on other channels.  I have some sort of issue, and can't figure it out.  I did change what receiver records MAVTV so I will see once some of my shows record.  Thanks all, for the suggestions

Lets face it,  for years this channel has had HD problems and continues too. Ive went round and round with MAV and Direct Satelite and each offers no "real" answer but BS.  Im stuck with Direct but not MAV and havent watched it for months its a blurry mess.

You say "stuck with DirecTV", I live in the city limits of Columbus Ohio, and cant imagine having anything but DirecTV! Their picture and sound quality is hands down better than anyone else! Just have to play hardball once a year threatening to leave, and then get my bill lowered for a year...
