Not sure… Just saw the tail end of ad with Channel 13 being advertised specifically for 10 Shake.

South Park is shown in the video but not mentioned above . I’m assuming repeats otherwise all the WIN viewers won’t see it unless they watch online catchup?.

10Shake - They would have been better off getting repeat rights to Bob’s Burgers than play Bojack Horseman. Then again having South Park, Bojack and Bob’s could be an animation night again like they used to have on Eleven.

Hmm interesting.
Looks like they could’ve been using Darwin as their testing ground by having 10HD on LCN 10?

I actually wouldn’t be surprised if the HD channel disappears entirely.

there’s a chance that it could become HD only to follow suit with the others.
As if. Why would they go backwards? If anything, the SD channel would go next. They have 10Bold on 1 and 12. Makes no sense.
Having 10HD on 1 might boost their ratings slightly with many people often pressing 1 on their remotes before clicking up and down.

No way. And 10 would be dumb to do so. The younger audience they’re targetting wouldn’t want to watch their shows in glorious SD.

I’m sorry but this is a ridiculous comment. They would be nuts to do this.

I highly doubt it, especially in the current environment where people are less likely than ever to upgrade their TV-viewing equipment if still stuck with MPEG2-only gear!
They went backwards in 2009 when Ten HD was replaced by One HD (and for a short time at least, One SD)!

There were good reasons. The government wouldn’t let them open more multichannels. To get around that, in a sneaky way, they used the HD channel for Channel One.
With hindsight, the government should have allowed multichannels sooner and maybe the networks maybe wouldn’t have been in such dire financial straits as they were/are. But the government had Murdoch and Foxtel pissing in their pocket.

The commercial networks were allowed to have two SD channels and one HD channel in 2009, which could’ve allowed Ten to continue running Ten in HD + SD and the new sports channel in SD.
Ten opted not to do that, favouring sport (the commitment to provide coverage of all Ten sport coverage on One didn’t even last long either IIRC) over HD broadcasts of all other programming genres.
I’d hardly call adding a multichannel going backwards.
All the networks took that option - adding a multichannel that was HD and dropping main channel HD - even ABC had ABC 24 running at 720p.

to be honest, i would not mind if we could set all the channels in HD as MPEG2-HD, i’m sure each multiplex has enough bandwidth. I personally don’t see the differences
Why is this flagged as hidden?

No there isn’t enough bandwidth for more than 1 MPEG 2 HD channel plus multis.
It’s a duplicate - has already been posted.

Even though we had no (or very little) HD main channel programming from Ten for nearly seven years?
Not to mention that even when Ten HD returned, for some time they lagged considerably behind the other networks in the amount of native HD content provided.
Fair point. But with no mention of what Ten are going to do with their HD channel (why not mention it in the press release?), I think people should be legitimately worried about the future of it.
I’m also concerned about history repeating itself and the other networks following suit if/when it’s decided they need even more multichannels in the future, since it’s likely that HD will be one of the first things sacrificed for future services.
