Anime Network VOD Reports/Updates/Questions Thread (2013)

Cogeco
St. Hyacinthe, QC, J2S 2Y1

I know I haven’t posted a report in about a month but that’s because everything went perfect in the updating !

http://www.dramabutton.com/until NOW !

As mentioned by Trurl514, there are 5 episodes missing in Cogeco Land :

  • K-ON 22
  • Kobato 04
  • Amagami SS 03
  • Majikoi 06
  • Mayo Chiki 06

I also thought maybe there was an episode of Heaven’s Memo Pad missing, but the series stops at 12 episodes.

Other than this issue, everything’s as smooth as a baby’s butt.

AT&T U-Verse West Bloomfield MI 48324

Night Update (not removing stuff that came in over night on the received list):
Horizon in the Middle of Nowhere Ep 1-3 labeled Horizon In Nowhere, Ep4 labeled Horizon Nowhere, like ef, it affects the ordering.
Hidamari Sketch x365 (Season 2) is following K-On!! numbering (Hidamari Sketch 2##) with ## being the episode number. I miss seeing the Ep in the labels actually.

I am going off the assumption, something that I do not like to do often, that there were no new series premieres this week for all FVOD providers according to my end. Let me know if something seems to be missing. Here is what we got…

Well, someone else is missing a finger again. It seems like Amagami SS Ep. 03 – “Jealousy” seems to be missing for several providers as well as mine. Other than that, there is a jump-gap now between Infinite Stratos Ep. 03 & Ep. 05. Everything else seems to be in order for now. I was anticipating some missing content mistakes due to the holidays. Hopefully this is all that will be missing due to that… *gulp.
:unsure:

[quote=“ttp” post=132033]Time Warner Cable, 53404 (Racine, WI)

Maybe I’m jumping the gun here, but I’ve only received 6 episodes this week. So I suppose I’ll make a list for both received and not received. I still haven’t received Psychic Squad from last week either.

Received 1/3:
K-ON 22
Hidamari Sketch x365 4
Himawari Too 7
Cluster Edge 17
Golgo 13 43
Infinite Stratos 5

Not Received 1/3:
Intrigue in the Bakumatsu 16
Xenoglossia 7
Princess Resurrection 18
Psychic Squad 25
Someday’s Dreamers II Sora 2
Bodacious Space Pirates 16
Anagami SS 3
Kobato 4
Phi-Brain 17
Little Snow Fairy Sugar 21
Penguindrum 1 (?)

Still Not Received from 12/27:
Psychic Squad 24

Like Jababbi said, we can’t tell forsure without the January schedule, but assuming the next episode is coming up next is pretty much a given. And if SpaceCobraJoe is right about Penguindrum premiering, I put it in the list to show I didn’t receive it.

I agree with your second note, Jababbi. There’s always something wonky with Time Warner’s site. Random premiers that we shouldn’t get and also some episodes get listed multiple times. But of course, like you said, that’s not The Anime Network’s responsibility.[/quote]

I have now recieved all of the episodes that were missing for me from the 1/3 update. I did not recieve penguindrum though, but I take it that Time Warner isn’t getting it. Psychic Squad 24 remains missing from the 12/27 update. Hope everyone else gets their shows.

No change since yesterday afternoon.

[quote=“rebecca1/2” post=132049]TWC, NY 13215 -

Full update appears to have shown up by early Friday morning.

I was still missing Amagami 03 and Bakumatsu 16 as of 5:30 this morning. Maybe they have shown up since then. I am also still missing Psychic Squad, Snow Fairy, Someday’s dreamer, Space Pirates, and Xeno. These shows are also missing from the Android app schedule.

I’m noticing something very odd about the DirecTV users, all are reporting something different, which I didn’t think was possible.

(Every time I think I have this stuff figured out, something new comes along.) :ohmy:

Expiring old episodes and making new episodes available happens at midnight local time. The menu for Channel 1889 gets updated separately for each time zone.

It’s possible that Amagami and Bakamatsu don’t show up because the Channel 1889 menu for the Pacific time zone was only partially updated.

-Joe

Update, Saturday morning: Those two episodes are now showing on DirecTV, Pacific time zone.

DirecTV SoCal 92780
~10:30 am PST
Two additional programs appeared in the on-screen VOD listing sometime this morning. I have noticed in the past brief differences with other DTV users, likely due to when the local box listing updates.

No new series or reruns (for FVOD 30) are scheduled to start in January 2013. (No Penguindrum - sigh… :frowning: )

Verizon FIOS 19426

No 1/3/13 update at all, Oldest versions removed but new ones not in place yet.

Thank You

TWC San Antonio, TX 78251

The missing content previously reported is now present, meaning all of this weeks content is now available.

Verizon FIOS - 13027

No updates received for 1/3.

Suddenlink
Prestonsburg KY 41653

There are zero updates. I am buzzing Suddenlink at the moment, but figured I would post here as well since the last time I didn’t get an update, they were no use at all.

DirecTV, Nationwide (but will report 74011 due to the quirky rollout of this week’s episodes)
As per Alderbaran66…

Psychic Squad 25 - "A Prayer For An Easy Birth! Hello, Baby!"
Someday’s Dreamers II Sora 2 - “Tokyo!”[/quote]

As of 11:45 PM, CT, 1/4/13, all above episodes are still missing.

Also, I have noticed that there are no more cable/satellite systems with Sub 30 lineups-all the subscriptions appear to have been converted to Sub 45. I hope this is not the first step in eliminating the Free 30 systems. The lack of any new series also is distressing, but the lack of any reruns is appreciated. If we only get 30 hours of anime a month, I’d much rather it be all new, with the only exception being running the dub version of a series previously shown as sub only. Anything else is marginalizing those of us who have no recourse to subscribe to the 45 hour service. Pardon me for being paranoid, but recent history has made me so…

TWC 2013/01/03 Update:

16 of 16 received.

schedule looks correct with no errors. 5 weeks with 16 episodes per.

5 weeks with sixteen 24 minute shows per week is 32 hours of content scheduled for this month. just a heads up on that as it MIGHT have some problems with the last week this month.

TWC seems to have repaired their NEW SHOW blue dot indicator, so TAN is no longer the only “channel” missing the indicator an hour after the shows have been updated, which makes counting 16 blue dots a lot easier in finding the new shows for the week to compare to the schedule. (TWC will probably break this in a week if it was not actually TAN related though it only happen with TAN programs when the error began months ago.)

Still no sign of Penguindrum, Snow Fairy Sugar, Someday’s Dreamers 2, Bodacious Space Pirates, Psychic Squad, or Xenoglossia.
