I believe this is possible, but I would be careful with that if you plan on getting the 942. It only has 1 ATSC OTA tuner and 2 sat tuners. So, if you have two OTA programs that overlap, you will have to record one in HD with the ATSC OTA tuner and the other in SD with one of the two sat...

Not sure. I have the $12.95/month plan. Not sure if that's the Tivo plus or not.

The only way I know that you could get guide info and have HD-DVR functionality for ATSC OTA would be to build a Home Theater PC with an ATSC tuner card. I am considering this if Voom went dead, but again, I am praying that won't be the case.

Yeah, I have heard of the USDTV. Only available in few markets, but they are going to expand. It's interesting how it works, they broadcast some of the cable favorites on an existing OTA frequency band. The $20 STB you can pick up from Wal-mart along with the $20/month service gets you the...

HDNews is one of the stations I use to show off my HDTV. The PQ is amazing! I also LOVE RaveHD. One of my favorite channels. As for OTA, the NFL games on the local FOX affiliate look great since they are using 720P as apposed to 1080i. I always prefer the progressive scan image in fast...

I think you hit the nail on the head with #7. The marketing strategy has to include the fact that Voom ALSO has the SD channels. Maybe that's why they are adding all of the SD channels they are now. Maybe even make an SD only package for those that don't have an HD TV to gain subs?

Yeah, I see what you are doing, however, I agree with CDH where with the digital signal you can retain the 16:9 aspect ration of the HD programs by setting your TV to Zoom or Stretch the 4:3 recorded program. Doesn't look too bad when doing this. Definitely not HD, but at least it fills the...

CDH, Glad it worked for you (sorta) :) Yeah, it would be great if Tivo would support ATSC local program information. For some reason, on the support section of their website it says: "VOOM offers local channels via an Advanced Television Systems Committee (ATSC) tuner. ATSC channels...

I know with everything else going on with Voom that this is a minor thing, but thought I thought I would pass this along. For issue #2, there is a workaround by telling it you have a cable box as well for the local channel info. I am not sure if this is possible on a Series 1, but the Series...

Yeah, the smiley is a nice touch!! :) :) :)

Just got off the phone with a CSR also. They were of course in total shock. The statement is from the PR yesterday. The guy I talked to said they don't have a prepared statement for today yet.

That was my first thought... and it still may turn out to be true. Very unprofessional even for Cablevision. Any request to the site gets re-directed to the message.

Damn it!! I didn't believe it until I saw it!! Of course, CVS still controls what goes on at voom.com....
