    I have Voom equipment that is/was leased. (Dish, Receiver, Remote, antenna, etc.) Has anyone been told what is to be done with them? I see posts talking about using the VOOM dish for receiving E* 61.5 transmissions?? Did Voom and E* agree to this as part of their deal? I have disconnected...

    Problems with the COX HDTV DVR

    Cox 8300 HD-DVR I got the Cox HD service and a HD-DVR (8300) when Voom folded. I also have Dish and have a 522 DVR with that. The 8300 seems every bit as good as the 522 plus of course, it records in HD or SD. Very satisfied with it and Cox PQ.

    VOOM picture quality - DVI vs. component

    I have DVI out to my Sony (It is digital) and component out to it also. I switch back and forth and have never seen any difference whatsoever. I was also expecting a big difference with the DVI cable, although I don't see how anything could provide a better picture... It is excellent.

    A&E, E! & Oxygen right now has really bad PQ

    Switched to Direct TV for comparision. Direct was normal and OK. Voom has short horizontal interference lines and a really poor picture. Not complaining! Just sending this so maybe someone can check out root cause.
