HD Channels showing SD

Some of my HD channels are only showing SD, including but I don't know if it's limited to, HGTV, DIY, Food Network.  I flipped through the guide to Comedy Central and that seems to be in HD.  Yes, I'm sure I have it on the HD channel.  Has anyone else had this issue?  Is it temporary?  Is there a fix?  Thanks.

Signal showing up as SD on your TV?  or just the picture pillar boxed?  These channels do show some older stuff which only upconverted SD programming.

There is a known issue right now with the listed channels that is coming from the networks side. Most are complaining about the video being stretched out. When will it be fixed? Who knows, I guess whenever the networks fix it, hopefully soon.
