HD Tagging On Cablevision Channel Guide and iO Digital Channel Guide
Effective Wednesday, July 6, programming that has been produced in
HD format will be "tagged" or highlighted with a gold background on
the iO Digital Channel Guide (channel 100) in all areas. At the same
time, in Woodbury, Norwalk and Westchester only, the Cablevision
Channel Guide (channel 14) will be updated to highlight programming
that has been produced in HD format that can be found on that
service's corresponding HD channel position. A launch schedule for
the remaining service areas and additional information will be

Beginning Wednesday July 6 and continuing through Thursday July 14th
all Scientific Atlanta 1850, 4200 and 4200 HD converteres will
recieve a software update. The upgrade will take place between the
hours of 1am and 5am on the first scheduled day in deferred mode,
and 2nd day in immediate mode. The area specific schedule is too big
to post here. You'll know you're getting the update if you're up
late and see scrolling numbers on your box.
