It's not the volume button that causes the problem. The guide button, arrow keys for navigating the menu all do it. I did more research online and have found that it's a common issue for this remote and the DVD player I have. Doesn't suprise me, it's a really cheap one (Nexxtech) Guess I'll...

Bah!!! LOL

I've heard people say that Comcast is either great or horrible depending on where you are. From what people have told me, this is a "good" area and the HD definetly looks better. E* may have more channels, but honestly I never watched them that much. It's possible that I will go back to E* or...

Anyone else have this problem?? The remote for my HD box also seems to lower the volume on my surround sound receiver. Not a big deal but kind of annoying. Comcast's suggestion was to take the batteries out for 10 mins and try it again. Didn't work, like I figured it wouldn't. I tried using...

Well as of last Saturday, I'm no longer a Dish Network subscriber. After over a year of crappy picture quality and being told by technicians "that's just the way it is," I was tired of paying over 90 bucks a month for it. Add to that the terrible customer service, rain fade, and lack of local...

I did a bit more digging and if i'm correct, all I need to keep is Dish Familly. Or if I cancel outright they will charge me $13.33 a month for the remainder of my contract. I will call comcast and see what kind of deals they could possible give me as far as paying for the cancel fee. But...

I lost my local fox about that time. My upstairs receiver came back on it's own. This garbage 211 had to be hard rebooted (pull the plug)

I upgraded to the new HD package and a 211 a few months ago. Stupid move on my part. What is the minimum programming requirement for this contract and does anyone know what the early termination fee is? I've basically had it with dish. Crappy PQ, and just now, it and craped out for now...

So does this mean that those 11 channels will be available nationwide?? That would be badass, I've wanted NESN for a long time. Being a NE sports fan and living in PA, I don't get to catch many games unless they play a local team or they are on ESPN

Correct. I'm trying to figure out why I'm NOT having a problem with the 211. 720P looks fine although it just get's upconvereted to 1080i by the TV anyway.

I've discovered a new problem with my TV. Here's my other post describing the problem. http://www.satelliteguys.us/showthread.php?t=69661 Now I haven't been able to duplicate this problem with my Vip211 both on DVI and component outputs. I have the TV type set as 4x3 #2 and 480p mode. My...

Hey all. Recently I picked up a game for my PS2, God Of War. And to my delight discovered I could run the game in progressive scan mode. Now before you ask, yes I have the PS2 hooked up via Sony component cables. When I put the game in PScan mode, the picture gets almost flickery and you...

Damn it, I knew I should have waited to upgrade to the new receivers. Now I can get a 622 for what I paid for a 211. Nuts.

You mean they are going to fly you out to India? Sweet!! I hear the food is good.

Check out the NHRA usually every other weekend. And if you've got a surround sound system, turn it WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY up!
