Any way to find out what actual HD content is broadcast on RTE HD?

    Is there a website that i can find a guide or somethng that will actually say what upcoming programs will be broadcast in hd rather than upscaled sd.

    The guide on the saorview box doesnt seem to indicate.

    Yes. Saorview need to get their act together on this. Why cant they flag upcoming HD material in the EPG? The worst thing is they did this at the start and then stopped. Heres the the EPG info from the Magners League final last May:

    Interestingly that picture reveals another little idiosyncrasy about the in-band EPG, namely that there's a single space before every program description. I see it in Windows 7 MCE as well, and it does my head in (I'm a bit OCD about such things admittedly :))

    No official guide :(

    They list the upcoming live sport here: http://www.rte.ie/sport/sportontv.html indicating which ones are HD (only Champions League for the next two weeks).

    Apart from that, Pan Am on Monday nights is the only thing that's in HD.

    Another one to add - from Saorview Twitter feed.
