Where is the list of movies available for the VOOM cinemas. I keep seeing people refer to a movie being on the list available, but I have not seen this list.

Mainstream VOOM VOOM is already aimed at the minority viewer right now. When my installer installed my system, he asked if I had an HD system and said that it would be a waste of time without it. I have added it to the upstairs tv (SD) and last night watched Smallville in widescreen (my bulb...

I posted this in an earlier forum. Looks like some things are happening. I don't agree with watching any "yellow dog" that is in HD. SD still has enjoyable programming. I would rather watch a good show in SD than a bad one in HD. It would be nice to have one service that could provide us...

Maybe it has already been doen, but this would be a good topic for a poll. Which do you prefer? Cropped Stretched (Shrunk) OAR By the way. Most HD receivers will do stretched for you and it does not have to be broadcast this way.

HD broadcasts should be a method of converting the original material in the best possible manner to its original intent. If it was originally shot on film, it should be a quality transfer process. Not a shape. Fit the original shape inside the box provided. Mine will be 48 x 64 or 40 x 85...

I do not want the aspect ratio of the original exhibition to be altered. Some people quote "intended" as if they know what the director intended to do and didn't. I have seen a petition to change the original 4X3 of Night Gallery to 16x9 for the DVD release. I want to see every inch that was...

I improved my OTA signal quality by removing the diplexer. When the installer came out to install my second receiver, he showed me that the original installer had not put the amplifier in the OTA antenna. That is why my signal improved and I received new channels when I removed it. He put in...

Picture quality Just got my second receiver installed upstairs. Will be disconnecting the other service. The first thing my wife said when she saw the picture was that it was so much better than the other satellite service. I also switched the two downstairs from one to the other and you...

New software in receiver installed tody in SLC I didn't mention that the PG had the rest listed as before.

New software in receiver installed tody in SLC This morning I had a second receiver added to my system. It has the new software. Upon installation the channels were the standard HD locals that I had beofre on my other receiver. A new menu choice has been added: You select Installation...

:) I called VOOM and told them I wanted to install additional receiver(s) in the rest of the house and cancel the other satellite service but the install fee would keep me from it. They waived the install fee. I am scheduled for the installation. A few weeks ago they told me they would not...

Something similar happened to mine and I had to unplug and do the pull the card thing and was then told to leave the channel on 100 and not press any buttons for 20 minutes before I changed the channel. (It's a long wait when you are waiting for it. Find something else to do.) It fixed my...

I know I am a minority, but it is a shame that with the Starz/Encore pack they left out one of the channels (westerns). Along with my HD, which I really like, I need of fix of Hoppy, Roy and Gene.

The few games that CBS broadcast of the NCAA tournament in HD really looked good.

Debit/Credit Card I also use the check card like a credit card and never mention the difference. I was double charged the first month and told that it took over thirty days to get that credited back. They told me that their system would not tolerate debit/credit cards even if used as a credit...

My strongest stations are reading about 70. The one I had trouble with would not come in until I bypassed the diplexer. It is now reading 32 and working.

FNC Appreciated Another hurdle in my conversion to VOOM has been leaped. Give me ESPN (all channels) and the old dish will come out. (I still want Westerns in the Starz Pack.)

Information still needed On Encore, they talk over the credits like a network channel to advertise something else or the same movie playing again. I like to watch the credits until the end and see the whole movie uninterrupted. Do they do this on EncoreHD? I am hoping they do not. Before I...

Sd I have done a direct comparison on my projector of TCM on VOOM and the other satellite service. Voom is sharper. There seem to be some reception problems on some channels (TNT was one the other night). This manifests itself as what we used to call sparkles on C-band. I think this kind of...

Forums The reason that I don't ususally participate in forums is what happened to this thread. I can't find the information I need because it takes an hour to sort through everything else.

I need some information before I move my Starz pack to VOOM. I have to give up the Westerns channel to get the HD channels (ouch!). What per centage of the Encore HD movies are being shown in HD? On Encore HD, do they advertise when you can see the movie again or see another movie over...

Rebooting (Five second reset) will cause you to lose your PG information. Mine reloaded in less than 20 minutes.

I had stuttering on all the HD channels when first installed. The fix was to use the 5 second reboot. The more I rebooted the longer the fix lasted until now it has been a week since I rebooted and it is good. The locals are the same as the other HD and I notice no additional stuttering.

I have gone through this problem. It got so bad you could not watch it. The solution was to send me out a new receiver. It never got installed. The first thing tried was to unplug the receiver and reboot it this way. I did not lose my program guide and it fixed it for five or six hours. I...

Also note that resolution settings on the receiver did not affect it.
