Well now. . .

First thanks for clearing up some misconceptions I have had.

At the SMPTE conference in Pasadena a few years ago, in the book shop, I
looked at a book devoted to PSIP that was easily 2 inches thick.  Not an
evening read or something that could be digested while putting out all =
the
daily fires.

I admittedly mis-spoke about cable re: EPG.  I haven't any experience =
with
digital cable.  I should know better than to make assumptions.  With my =
DBS
service, when it says "No Information Available" It would be nice to be =
able
to see the stations own program guide.  Not that it would necessarily =
have
information either.

If audio delay were such a snap, why is it I have to stop watching =
programs
so often because of such bad lip sync?

I will have to be more careful to note if this is more prevalent on DBS =
than
OTA.

The going work you describe in regard to PSIP is encouraging, indeed.

Do you know if cable and/or DBS operators pass through local HDTV =
content or
is it trans-coded to reduce bandwidth?=20

Regards,
Tony
