What channels do not allow their content on the iphone?

I received my directv nomad last week.  I have been able to transfer tosh.o and pan am onto my iphone.  I tried to transfer entourage, fox news, cnn and a movie I recorded and it sits on preparing for days.  Are there certain stations that do not allow their content to transfer to the nomad? Is there someway I can find out what will transfer and what will not?

Are the shows that are not "preparing" resident on a different DVR than the ones that successfully "prepare"?  If so, try resetting the STB/DVR.  I have found that sometimes the source DVR doesn't respond to nomad requests for content and needs to be reset. I saw this in other threads too.

The shows sit in "preparing for days". The shows and movies are from hbo. I recorded them from hbo. They are not on demand. I rebooted the DVr and have the same issue.

Do shows from other channels prepare properly?
