    I haven't had a chance to validate any of my titles in this state yet.
    On my computer these are showing as SD only. So it looks like it is only for the pass-through to MA.

    The Big Red One is HDX on Vudu
    Chisum is still SD on Vudu to buy/rent, though the quality at the bottom states HDX
    Jeremiah Johnson is still SD on Vudu to buy/rent


    You might be seeing higher quality if they recently imported in that higher quality, while Vudu may not offer them yet. Unless you D2D'd them with the higher quality? I know of one title that was sold for the longest time on the site in SD only, but you could D2D it in HDX.
    I see. Yes, they have all imported to my account in HDX.

    King Of Kong: A Fistful Of Quarters has lost HDX Status.
    Two steps forward, one step back.

    Most of the remaining SD movies I have on Vudu and in the OP's list, which are available in HD elsewhere, are from Warner Brothers. Here are the ones I have in SD on Vudu:

    Badlands
    Broadway Melody
    Get Carter
    Goodbye Girl
    Night Shift (1982)
    On the Town (1949)
    Sommersby

    FelipeF, might we see these WB films and the others in the OP's list get an HD encode at some point?

    From the first post in this thread - your post:

    Can you purchase The Time Machine in anything other than SD? Can you watch it in anything other than SD? No? Then it's not HD at Vudu. Vudu will not import an HD purchase of The Time Machine from another MA provider. Vudu is only passing through HDX to MA. Which is great but not what your list is by your own definition.

    Maybe you need to research what "checkmate" means too. We're done here.

    Again, great for you. I said Cobra plays for me in SD despite saying "own HDX" - and it still does as I post this.

    My point was that you're going to have to verify your titles because you didn't. Literally the first movie in your list (The Time Machine) is only SD. Can't be bought, converted, or played in anything but SD. How's that for research?

    Also, Cobra played right away in HDX for me.
