WHNE PSIP data screwed up?

Post by km1125 » Wed Feb 07, 2024 7:53 pm

Can't seem to get the PSIP data on WHNE currently. TVs default to 3.1, which comes in fine, but won't show the rest of the subchannels. On one TV I can manually tune to 3.9 and it will come in, but on other sets putting 3.9 in results in the TV defaulting to 3.1.

What happens when you try it?

Anybody else check this yet? All my TVs are still seeing the same issue.

Very few people probably watch their channels with any regularity.

Given the fact Bridge News LLC now owns WHNE, the fact the picture quality of NewsNET remains mediocre is bizarre. I had hoped they would be upgraded to HD. Sports News Highlights is unwatchable due to the hideous graphics cluttering the screen.

I have all those subchannels turned off. it's a combination of the programming and a weak signal.

Do any of you actually get 3.9, or can you only see Newsnet on 3.1?

I noticed WHNE pared its channel lineup greatly.

3.1 is now Newsnet.
3.2 is now Sports News Highlights.
3.3 is now ShopHQ.
3.4 is now ACE.

The first three channels now appear to be in 720p to my eyes. 3.1's audio codec is malfunctioning.

3.4 is in grainy 480i.

The infomercial channel, extra home shopping channels, TheGrio, Heartland, and Retro are gone.

It is nice having 3.1 in quasi-HD now. The graphics clutter on 3.2 drives me nuts; the on-air look is obnoxious. Put two tickers at the bottom of the screen - one with scores and headlines and one with betting info. The right-hand panel looks stupid, takes up far too much screen space, and should be abandoned.

The text in the blue bar is correct. The channel numbers appearing below the logos? Not so much. 😉
