    942 power reset

    Thanks Brad, of course you are right, and I should have mentioned that I did not have this problem before 2.27.

    942 power reset

    FYI - As a result of this reboot, every night, my 942 no longer provides a signal to my plasma (HDMI connector). Every day I have to (blind by memory on the remote do... menu, up three, enter, up two, left two, down one, right two, enter) which resetd the HDTV output from 1080i to 720 P, which...

    BLACK screen on TV

    I tried your suggested list with the same result as Tracy. My TV's tell me they are getting no signal at all. Am calling dealer. But it just seems unlikely that three units would go bad in the same week. It has to be something simple. Thanks for the list.

    BLACK screen on TV

    Came home from a week away, and none of my three 942's are showing anything on their respective tv's. Zip, nada, nothing. Did a 10 second power reset, and no change. I am getting sound but no picture at all. Can change channels, and hear the sound change, but no picture, no guide, no DVR, zip...

    Dish, Direct Tv or Cable?

    I have four VOOM receivers and spent the last few days on a suicide hot line. Am coming out of the funk now and thinking DirecTV to replace three and a Comcast Digital for the fourth (lower resolution set). Would appreciate any help with which of the two (Dish or DirecTV) has better...

    May 1st where will you be? Dish, Cable or DirecTV?

    I found VOOM because I had Comcast and Comcast SD was so poor it was unwatchable on a 50" plasma. The HD was fine, but when I watched Fox, or CNN, or MSNBC, etc. it was a nightmare. At least the SD on D and E are watchable. VOOm was perfect, and this is really sad.

    Just got a call from Voom in which I was told Voom won't end at the end of the month.

    I am not giving up. In this league we are talking about hardball. There are.more than likely, negotiations going on. They may have stalled, and Cablevision is now saying: "rather than accept your deal, we will shut it down". It is a poker game, and sadly, employees and subs are mere chips in the...

    I Can't Tune my local channel after V7.33 (Please post here)

    Sean, In a previous post on the other thread I mentioned missing OTA channels. I was dead wrong. When I got home and checked their RF strength-- it was not there. There is enough strength to get the guide, but not enough for the picture. I am in Fort Lauderdale, and receiving all the channels...

    New Software Version 7.33 downloading now...

    Sorry Sean, am at work and do not have access to the receivers. From memory I know that channel 5, 25, and 29 are strong, am getting the guide, but not the picture. When I get home I will update fully.

    New Software Version 7.33 downloading now...

    Thanks Sean, then I will assume that if my OTA antenna can get receive it, then I should be able to see it. Sadly, that is not case for several channels down here. I will call a CSR.

    New Software Version 7.33 downloading now...

    Am having the same problem in Fort Lauderdale. My sense is that my receiver is detecting the channel (which has good strength) but that the software is not authorizing me to watch it. Is it possible that since I get many channels (being very high in the air between Miami and Palm Beach) that...

    BREAKING VOOM DVR News from CES!!!

    Despite all the parsing of words, it is hard to see how this is not great news for those of us that want VOOM to win. Thanks to Scott, Don, Ilya, and Sean for this update, I am a month of ahead of the information curve thanks to this thread. Thanks to all.

    How important is the DVR to you as a Voom customer?

    Here is a paste of some comments on MPEG4, the delay in the DVR due to MPEG4 is a question sadly, not an answer. Forum: The VOOM Forum Yesterday, 11:26 AM Replies: 80 Sticky: CEDIA-2004: VOOM (Day Two) Views: 4,784 Posted By Ilya Whether the MPEG4 upgrade will be mailed to...

    How important is the DVR to you as a Voom customer?

    Today, when I saw the Voom DVR was a 2005 intro, my heart sank. Love my VVV, but need that DVR badly. Did I read on a thread that the delay is due to the MPEG4 upgrade? First the upgrade and then the DVR?

    I want an HD DVR SOOO BAD...tempted to switch.

    We are also dying to have an HD DVR, but we have had two Tivo's (SD) and both failed after about 18 months, both times with tons of unwatched Soprano's (and this year Deadwood) episodes unwatched and lost forever (or at least until the DVD's come out). I do not think the DVR is at the same level...

    Are you getting a signal from 321, 593 & 594 (post here)?

    Have all three in Fort Lauderdale, when tuned the channel says: "subscribe and receive this channel immediately by call 1 800 GET VOOM"

    Voom Dvr

    I called for the list, and they said there is no list, and when we call in for requests to be listed, rather than tell us there is no list, they make a note on our account that we want the DVR. I was told they are in "testing" mode now, and that they are told not to give an introduction date...

    OTA Issues and New Software 6.20 Download Tonight!

    Technut, can't you get it over the air, instead of phone? Going to "system settings", then "installer menu", then "installation wizard", then "verify voom", the "ok", then it will tell you an update is available, and follow the instructions. I am new to this Forum, so if this is old news, my...

    OTA Issues and New Software 6.20 Download Tonight!

    Yahooo! One very big difference after the update, no white screen switching channels. I am using the DVI, and very often when changing channels I had a white screen for a few seconds until I changed back and forth, or waited, now it seamlessly switches channels. GREAT!
