    Other Opinions...

    As you can tell I'm more of just a lurker here, but I had to respond to this. Anyone attacking Vurbano for posting what he did needs to rethink about his post. He's not doing anything but stating the truth as he sees it, and has Voom as reported it. If there isn't a deal, all of us will be...

    Rave Video Mix

    What happened? They used to be 80% music videos and the occasional concert. Now it seems they did a complete 180. They need to find a good balance of around 50/50. If you notice... they also only have the few hours of music videos on starting around 4AM EST. So they really must think most don't...

    Where's FSN?

    Similar situation with my cable company. All the sudden they seem to be doing everything right now that I don't have their digital service. But to try and stay on topic: Anyone know the channel #s for FSNs? and any other news on the FSN additions?

    VOOM STB Version 7.26 (2.30): Features/Bugs/Requests

    One more question/suggestion... Is there any chance that in the future the unit will be able to decode analog OTA and/or cable channels? As of now unless all your locals are digital you are left out. This is a huge problem as most cities don't have all locals in digital. Being able to use it...

    VOOM STB Version 7.26 (2.30): Features/Bugs/Requests

    A couple more suggestions... The ability to quickly change the viewing mode via remote commands. Instead of going to the menu to watch SD strethed or with sidebars, I'd like a quick command to do it with the remote. Also, there should be a zoom mode added, which stretches vertically and...

    VOOM STB Version 7.26 (2.30): Features/Bugs/Requests

    I don't know if anyone has mentioned this or has an issue with this but I'm used to a Hughes E86 receiver. My problem is with the amount of time given to manually enter a channel #. It is way too short IMO. I think my Hughes box gives me at least 2x-3x as long to enter a channel # before...

    VOOM Installations

    Good to hear it... I'm also glad I insisted on a second opinion about getting the service. Back in March I had a very similar story besides the dropped appointments etc... There are a few simple ways for someone to know if they can get it. First thing you need is a compass, and the exact...

    VOOM Installations

    I think low 70s is very bad reception. I think low 90s is normal. Is it a cloudy day?

    Can't add a plus pack...

    Well... here we are over a month later and I finally stopped calling the awhile back and also cancelled starz awhile back because I never got the channels, only 1-2 of the love/mystery or SD channels at a time. and... they call me today! Great guy called... was very nice and basically said...

    VOOM to employ Windows Media 9

    Funny to see all the Microsoft bashing that goes on. Looks a lot like it did before the Xbox came out... that thing sure is full of viruses and they sure have taken everyone else down 3 years later, huh? I think this is great, and although I liked Mpeg4, I really like the idea of wmv9 because it...

    Sorry to say but I won't be Vooming anymore! (Edit: Totally Back)

    I'm in the same boat as you. I only watch RaveHD and RushHD. Occasionally the Monsters HD channel, and very rarely the Cinema 10s. The rest is a waste IMO, including Bravo. I already get Discovery HD, HBOHD and SHO-HD on D*. They will need to give me the free Starz pack they offered me...

    New Software Update Tonight! (Version 00.05.68)

    Getting it right now... I have been busy the past week and haven't been here to know it was coming... I just happened to notice that part of the digital readout was on. I guess it should be done pretty soon if it started at 4:45 EST.
