    My daughter is walking!!!

    Her first birthday is on November 2nd and the past two days she has mastered the skill of walking on her own! :D It is so exhilarating to see her beaming smile every time she lets go of the wall/table and slowly places one foot in front of the other. Fatherhood is so awesome!!!! :D

    If I'm dreaming...

    please don't wake me. Since finishing my Home Theater, complete with hand made built-in entertainment center, a few months ago the wife has been getting frustrated whenever a show she want's to see isn't HD (like The Apprentice). If it's not HD she doesn't want to watch it in the theater...

    How in the world...

    ...are the members of this forum able to post at the times of day/night that they do? Some are only here from 9am-5pm... Others are only here at night... And others will post all morning, all afternoon, all evening, and into the next morning, like having posted all day and night untill about...

    I give up...(somewhat of a rant)

    MAn, I giVe up. The attitude at Sone of the other online forums I frequent is absolutely disgusting. There is this one forum I like to monitor that is supposedly about HDTV programming, but all I read lately is people getting chastised for complaining about the downward spiral of HD quality...

    Does D* brainwash it's subscribers?

    I see that a few have seen this thread already. This has to be the most insane thread I have ever seen at AVS. Dvlos has been trying valianltly but I seriously think D* is transmitting some sort of subliminal messages or something. :eek:

    Has 6.10 increased your OTA Signal Quality?

    Last night was the first oppurtunity I had to tinker with the new software as I received the download at 2:38AM on Wednesday. I have noticed that the Signal Quality and Signal Power numbers for my OTA channels have increased rather dramatically. Example My FOX station was the worst channel I...

    One Reason for S/W delay...

    This post by Sean looks like one good reason for the delay in the software update.

    Do yourself a favor...

    and don't look for issues that you don't currently see i.e. the documented microstutters. If you don't currently see them then ignorance is bliss. Don't look for them. Once you see them you will see them forever. Until I got bored yesterday and decided to fiddle with my system I had never...

    Anyone watching Voom right now? I'm perplexed.

    Stayed home sick today. Just woke up and decided to watch some HD. Turn on Voom and within five minutes I loose signal. I really mean lose too. Signal quality dropped from around 95 straight to 0. It just seems odd that it dropped to zero. I was watching last night and all was fine. I haven't...

    DivineHD is not a "new" channel

    After reading through page after page of everyones opinion of this announcement, I found it very interesting that most folks (besides the theme of the channel) feel this is a waste of bandwidth. This channel is not using any additional bandwidth. It's been there the whole time, it's just been...

    Remember that movie....

    where Jim Carrey plays the Riddler and invents that device that sits on top of the TV and sucks out your intelligence? Sometimes I feel like that device is VOOM. I find myself getting sucked into what ever is on in HD. Like last night, I went down stairs to turn off the HT and the Flames-Sharks...

    Do you turn your STB off at the end of your viewing day?

    I am trying to conduct a little experiment. In the options and settings menu there is a field for the time since your last reboot. This time seems to be connected to how long the box has been on. I am wondering, if not everyone experiences micro-stutters, black screens, etc. at the same time...

    PG has "HD", but show not HD?

    Last night the PG showed the Apprentice as being HD with the symbol on the info bar but the show wasn't HD. Am I wrong in thinking that "High Definition" requires, besides the resolution, 16:9 aspect ratio. Granted the PQ from my local digital NBC broadcast was of very high resolution, but it...

    Look up at Scott's anouncement

    Let's get some participation here. Post now and get our pics in later.

    Voom is definitely a niche service

    It would be interesting to see what a forum like this would have looked like during the first six months of D* and E* broadcasting. Heck, a lot of the problems we are experiencing even occurred when terrestrial cable companies started selling "digital" cable. If you are happy with your...

    Is it just me or are there some real a**holes on other forums?!

    I don't know what the deal is but this forum is the only forum that I participate in that isn't overflowing with cocky know-it-alls. I mean, yeah sometimes one can read the wrong emotion into a post but most of the time these people are just blantantly being a prick. Whether it has to do with...

    Top of HDNews missing? Mitsubishi owners try this:

    Has anyone else noticed the very top of the image missing from HDNews? It is most noticable when the weather is on. When the weather map is being displayed the title at the top of the screen is only showing the bottom half of the text. When I hit the Voom button the inset in the upper right...

    Washington D.C. Metro area Voomers

    I didn't see it in the list so here it goes. Anyone from D.C., Maryland, or Northern Virginia fell free to post comments. I am in the Manassas area and am having OTA reception problems with the stock Stealthtenna. Voom is working with the installer to get me the upgrade. I can pick up...
