    Super-DMA is being released!

    Milwaukee DMA Just tried to use the Green Bay stations. They are ALL screwed up. The station call letters are incorrect as well as the program guide. I can still watch them, but what is on the guide is not what you get. Someone needs to take a look.

    Another new SEC filing (CVC 8-k): Closing of Rainbow DBS business has been delayed!

    Hobby? I doubt that. They're just look at it as a long term venture. That doesn't work in today's marketplace very well. Divest? Sure. Pass on the assets and as much liability as possible and save yourself the shutdown costs!

    Another new SEC filing (CVC 8-k): Closing of Rainbow DBS business has been delayed!

    I believe the letter of intent by Voom LLC was to assume the assets AND liabilities. Why wouldn't CVC jump at that opportunity?

    Another new SEC filing (CVC 8-k): Closing of Rainbow DBS business has been delayed!

    Well, even if CVC can offload a portion of the debt onto Voom LLC, it would still be better than assuming all of the debt plus the shutdown costs.

    Another new SEC filing (CVC 8-k): Closing of Rainbow DBS business has been delayed!

    "The shareholders should not be burdened with voom's enormous debt " Isn't C Dolan trying to assume the assets AND liabilities????? If CVC shuts it down, they're stuck with the debt themselves! Duh!

    The End of VOOM?

    I was thinking it's just a way to buy some time and get the rest of the board off his back and hope subscriber rate increases. Pipe dream, I know. But I don't want to lose my VOOM. I'm trying to stay optimistic.

    The End of VOOM?

    Aren't they finishing a brand new uplink center? If that's the case, they must have two of them. Which one was purchased by Dish?

    The End of VOOM?

    Pull the sat feed off of the back and try it. I for one like the performance of the OTA receiver. If they don't want it back, I'll use it for the locals.

    The End of VOOM?

    Re: End of Voom? Is it possible that they just sold off some equipment to generate some operating funds and plan to move forward with the new sats?

    Multiple DMA's?

    What do you mean "to everyone"? Do some subscribers have it? Or are they beta testers?

    Multiple DMA's?

    I've read a number of posts referring to "multiple DMA's". How does one get this set up? I can manually scan for other stations in the surrounding areas where I live, but I'm wondering if there's a way to specify DMA's so I can get all the guide info. Anyone have any info on this?

    Caller ID with Voom?

    Definately a bug. My Voom box is three phone calls behind when it shows the number. Strange.

    Rate the Star Wars Trilogy DVD's

    So far I've watched the first one and half of the second. The picture quality looks great. However, the sound quality on the first movie was pretty bad. Well, maybe bad is a little too harsh. It wasn't near as good as a typical DD5.1 soundtrack though. I had to bring up the center channel to...

    Network shows in HD Tonight! 9/27

    Yeah, don't you just get sick of the same old "formula" shows? The dramas are just as bad as the comedies. Predictable formula writing. It really takes the enjoyment out of watching something when you know what's going to happen next. And on top of all that...we get to watch a bunch of...

    Scam Question

    Why would you even ask the question whether this is a scam! You've got to be kidding! You're a sitting duck if you can't smell that one a mile away.

    So is fox in HD or just 480p *enhanced*

    I've been watching the Lions/Bears game and it looks very soft/blurry and over-saturated with color. I've been flipping back and forth between that game and the Raiders/Steelers game and CBS looks much better. The CBS pic looks crisp and there's no color bleeding. When the camera backs out just...

    Voom Serial Connection to Tivo

    shaun-ohio, The last time I did some research, there were no DVD recorders that will record in anything other than 2 channel. They all down-mix 5.1 (or whatever)to two channels. Sucks, doesn't it? That's why I won't buy one. The 5.1 audio is very important for me.

    channel flickering and going blue after channel change

    Yeah, I've been seeing some similar stuff. I also occasionally get a screen full of pure snow when changing channels. It'll last for about 4-5 seconds. Also when it flickers, my tv reports that it just switched to 1080i. Problem is I have the receiver set to 1080i only. There must be something...

    What are you viewing Habits?

    I couldn't vote because there's no choice for HD only. The first option was close, but it also says (ota sd included).
