About time Prime got its act together and switched its main channel to HD. ---

With both metro Seven and SC Tasmania having primary channels in HD, there has to be pressure building behind Prime7/GWN7 and remaining Seven and SC stations. The only question is, when will they crack? ---

I think you missed this bit Luke: > [@eddel](#): > > Their schedule isn’t firing **like it always used to at this time of year and things are only going to get harder for them after Easter.** I’m pretty sure it wasn’t so many years ago when MKR got over 1.5 million viewers an episode! Not so much these days. And after Easter it’ll probably be House Rules vs The Voice vs MasterChef. Not exactly what I’d call weak competition for Seven. ---

As per Prime7’s contact page [https://au.prime7.yahoo.com/a1/contact-us/](https://au.prime7.yahoo.com/a1/contact-us/) I’ve e-mailed [info@prime7.com.au](mailto:info@prime7.com.au) again, (replying to the generic auto reply message I got when I asked why the Aus Open wasn’t in HD) asking why we’re still being treated as second class citizens. I’m not expecting a more substantial reply but hopefully it reminds them there are unhappy viewers out here. ---

I wonder if you could get away with a formal complaint about “something [in HD] you have[n’t] seen or heard [about] on Prime7”. It technically relates to a complaint about programming and the fact that regional viewers are not being treated as equally as metropolitan network viewers, which was the whole point of aggregation: to provide the same viewing choices to regional viewers as metro viewers. > There are three methods for lodging a formal complaint in relation to something you have seen or heard on PRIME7. > You must either: > Mail a letter to PRIME7, at this address (it is advisable that complaints sent via post use Registered Mail): > The Program Manager > PRIME7 > PO Box 878 > Dickson > ACT 2602 > Send a fax to PRIME7, the fax number is: 02 62423764 > Use the electronic form located on the Free TV website. ---

> [@Bluejays1985](#): > > Hope 7mate had will be permanent. 😀 God, I hope not. Seven’s premium content (i.e. everything on of the primary channel) should be in HD over lower-rating content that is shafted to the multichannels. If anything, this is the best compromise: full time 7HD with AFL breakaway. Hope you minority AFL supporters enjoy your prescious footy. ---

Just for what it’s worth, LCN-70 in Sydney will (thankfully!) continue simulcasting the main channel on Monday judging by our EPG. However Sydney will get the Swans vs Giants game shown on the main channel + HD tomorrow night. Whether or not this game is actually shown in HD (since it’s a Fox Footy production and Seven only shows games from them in upconverted SD) remains to be seen, however I would expect to see more important Swans/Giants games shown on Seven’s main channel + HD in Sydney throughout 2017. In any case, I think we can say that this switch to 7mateHD in Melbourne and Adelaide is only (very) temporary and most likely just a “once in a blue moon” thing. ---
