There are two different channel feeds available for each of our Starz and Encore channels. Some video providers carry both feeds, but most carry a single feed of each channel available in their particular line-up. The programming on the East and West feeds of a channel is identical, but the West feed is scheduled three hours later. The West feed is often identified with a "w" on your provider's onscreen programming guide, for example, STZw or ENCw for the West feeds of Starz and Encore. The same identifier may be used in printed guides. You may also verify which feed you have by comparing the current program for a particular Starz or Encore channel to the East and West coast feed schedules on the website or by checking directly with your provider.
