  • Yes, I was asking you where in itunes it shows the HD icon, being in the UK we don't have HD tv shows so I can't see for myself, HD tv shows that are home brewed don't appear to have an icon in itunes but do on the tv.

  • It could if the tv is connected by HDMI, but I doubt it does, so I'd have to agree it's not syncing SD versions because it's clever, especially considering it puts the HD version on to the tv when you perform a resync.

  • I'd agree in terms of tv shows bought from itms, however if the tv were to rely on this information for determining whether to add the HD icon on your tv, then it wouldn't work for home brewed tv shows.

  • Is your tv set to use the correct input, have you tried cycling the tv output modes.

  • Just a thought, but if your tv isn't HD then perhaps the tv / itunes is just being smart and loading the SD version because that would be the sensible thing to do.

  • What my current thoughts are (and they may change) is that you have discovered a bug in respect of your tv shows not displaying the HD logo on the tv when there is a parenthesis in the filename, whereas I believe my files act correctly and always display the HD icon regardless of parenthesis in the file name.

  • You guys may have already noticed this but in Caps 'screenshot all the episodes are numbered, this doesn't happen for me with home brewed tv shows despite entering an episode number in the episode number field and the episode ID field, so it would appear that itunes doesn't use either of these fields for the data it uses to display the episode number in this view. tv however does use the episode number field for displaying episode numbers on screen.
