    optical sound faster than HDMI?

    my 700 is hooked up to the screen with HDMI and I have an optical cable going from the 700 to my 6.1 reciever. I noticed today when I turned my reciever on to listen to XM and still had the TV volume up a lil, I could clearly hear the reciever was beating the TV to the words of the song...

    Loss of signal

    no I have all four lines ran, hence I lost 1 of 4, we have an regular tivo and a 700, so the 700 got two from the slimline and the tivo got the 3rd from the slimline and one from my neighbors 3 LNB. I still dont know what caused the line to go out..

    Unique situation around my HD upgrade ...

    or you can move from the chicago addy to another chicago addy or suburban address off a friend, let them come out and install it, take it down yourself and reinstall it in the rockford address.. my friend has done this with Moline already.

    has anyone ever lost a line off 5 LNB

    yeah I did some more looking at the system from inside the apartment, and the line that went out was one of my original 3 lines, during installation I had them run a 4th line for me with the slimline. that line has seem some "action" in the weather dept. so i think its unlikely that the cable...
