    Harmonic Encoder Improvements? (Feedback Need it)

    I should also mention that Dish ESPN HD also had just a bit of the above mentioned motion floor artifact. Slight softening and dirty film. Like a window that needs cleaning. My viewing distance from the 34XBR960 is 6 feet. daveoo

    Harmonic Encoder Improvements? (Feedback Need it)

    Two minutes ago VOOM ESPN HD looking pretty good. Motion over the floor softens the floor and imparts a dirty/grainy look. No pixel breakup or streaks. XBR960 with component conn and DVE calibration. daveoo

    Harmonic Encoder Improvements? (Feedback Need it)

    My post from yesterday on ESPN HD VOOM with streaking was viewed on XBR 960. Has nice resolution. The streaks were like taking a pencil and moving back and forth horizontally and creating a shading effect. Seen on floor with motion and some on other shots. daveoo

    Harmonic Encoder Improvements? (Feedback Need it)

    I just did another Dish/VOOM comparison on ESPN HD at 14:00. Very close and the same as three days ago. Correction: The Lumi Sharpness is fixed on the VOOM 1080i input. WOW did I see some color blocking on Rave and Ultra last midnight. Gone in AM. This was on my third rcvr that...

    Audio Irregularities with B&K Receiver

    Thanks for the advise. Got off my but. Couldn't find exactly what you suggested, but I re-did the settings for processing and got reliable sound for now. The unit is getting rusty and forgets some settings when powered off. daveoo

    Audio Irregularities with B&K Receiver

    With VOOM rcrv hooked optically into my B&K 307 I get unpredictable audio. This is not dropouts. I may have audio just fine then switch channels on VOOM and lose all audio. A few more flips of the channels brings back the audio. Having to flip, up or down, thru 2-10 channels before audio...

    Harmonic Encoder Improvements? (Feedback Need it)

    Backrub over. Watched VOOM HDs. No breakup or pixels. Rave, Ultra, Lab, Worldsport and Rush. On World Sport soccer I noticed that the distant field has some softening on motion, but I have to watch specifically for the artifact. daveoo

    Harmonic Encoder Improvements? (Feedback Need it)

    Since my last post I started watching VOOM HDs and saw some breakup/pixels (B/P) on close motion WorldSport, motion Equator and motion on Rush. Then I went to the premiums and saw none of the problems. I returned 10 min ago to the VOOM HDs and could find no B/Ps for about 10 min. The B/Ps...

    This is more compelling than VOOM in the short term for me. I will plug join the Pub again. A few bucks helps keep this forum going. Daveoo

    Some good/bad News (Depending how you want to take it)

    Well, they sure know parts of the internet is a buzz about VOOM. Just called and had a CSR confirm my 7 Mar install. Still on but maybe that is all they can say for now. Was appreciative of words of encouragement. A sad and humble tone in CSR's voice on exit. They are just small pebbles on...

    Looking for new installs

    Beautiful install. Might put a kink in my neck tho. Lots of lazy boys or reclining HT seats needed. Some may go to this extent just for room decor tho. Daveoo

    Hi; Outside plug for a good forum. This event is compelling and entertaining enough for me to appreciate the SatGuys efforts. A few bucks donation is nothing compared to some of the content subscription rates quoted here. I'm half complete on my VOOM install. Just need the...
