    For our co-op, those channels are being assigned to our building security cameras. Do you live in a complex with some closed circuit cameras too?

    New way to watch Hd !!

    Surprised Brooklyn didn't get it about the same time we did for, as you point out, the two boroughs usually receive newbies from CV within 24 or 48 hours of each other. In fact, it seems Brooklyn might have been one of the last areas in the tri-state area, which is really strange. Even more...

    Kitchen question

    If not far and not cluttery, try running component cables out of the unused jacks from the cable box to your kitchen set while keeping your other monitor connected via HDMI (or vice versa).

    PQ Quality and sound..

    Yeah, right. Doubt a website for cable would tout the advantages of it's competitor!:)

    PQ Quality and sound..

    Beach, Could these be due split second drops in power? A while back my DVR recording stopped much earlier than scheduled. Initially I was unaware of any momentary loss because the DVR, DVD recorder, VCR and clocks were not blinking, however, I eventually found one radio that was. The...

    Hi Cobra, Please do drop in from time to time. We've all been down the same road one way or another so you are right - things can be much worse (as it has been for all of us). When you least expect it, something will come your way I'm sure!:up As far as PQ, I guess those of us in the...

    I finally made the switch...

    Hoping you have or will find employment soon - we all know how rough it must be on you and the family. Wiring varies from community to community and so (I guess) can picture quality. I've always liked the quality of the HD picture we get in the Bronx. Where you on the same feed or one of a...

    Choppy picture

    What I'm noticing on many stations (both HD and SD) is that the picture suddenly freezes and turns black for a few seconds before coming back on. There is no audio during that time, either.

    HD DVR

    Hi Beach, The only program I've retained permantly is the HD Set-Up that was broadcast over the old INHD a few years back. Everything else I wish to keep is eventually dubbed onto DVD (with HD programs downconverted to 480 since even downconverted these look a million times better than their...

    Summer Debut for Cablevision Network DVR

    Wouldn't one with a current standard cable box then be denied use of the "out to VCR" feature and the ability to watch another program during dubbing like we have on the 8300 because it has multiple tuners and a hard drive? And does that also mean in order not to mess up dubbing one would have...

    Summer Debut for Cablevision Network DVR

    And what about the "out to VCR" function on DVR hardrive units? Standard HD boxs don't have this.

    New Channel coming in May

    Looking forward to Boomerang too. Did not know anything about it till JPR sent us that link. Like others, I'm thrilled knowing I'll be able to again catch some cartoon programs I haven't seen since I was a kid. Does it transmit in HD?

    Cablevision goes HD crazy!

    Oh, I agree with you Remy, we'll obviously be getting more, it's just that the release made it appear more were to come in a very, very short time. No doubt CV did want to spin it in a certain direction for maximum effect.

    Cablevision goes HD crazy!

    You're 100% right. I was fooled and should have realized it. The announcement is spun in such a manner as to imply that more stations are to be added. One has to read it more carefully to understand CV is only referring to expanding those 30 new HD stations beyond New York City. Am...

    Cablevision goes HD crazy!

    According to a press release by CV, the 30 new HD stations are just the beginning and the lineup will be expanded over the next few months. Here's the report from Bloomberg News: Cablevision to Introduce More Than 100 HD Channels (Update2) Share | Email | Print | A A A By Kelly Riddell...

    Cablevision, Jobs, Long Island.

    I know when we received resumes for job openings already filled we still replied with a thank you noting the resume would be kept on file. Guess that's the difference between a university of higher education and that of corporate America. Most important, thank you for serving our country.

    Cablevision goes HD crazy!

    That's probably the one good thing about the blackout rule.

    Cablevision goes HD crazy!

    Yup, being all digital we've been immune to many of the HD quality problems experienced in other areas and the SDV station not available message has never been a concern for us either.

    Multi Room DVR ???

    Multi Room DVR ???

    Have reservations about network DVRs. I do lots of dubbing from my DVR onto DVD. Sudden problems with service does not affect dubbing material stored on a personal hard drive whereas it would on a network DVR. Obviously, I'm not concerned about the loss of a twenty-five cent recordable...
