    FSN Bay Area HD

    Interestingly, in the middle of Wednesday's game, 654-1 started to show the game in HD until it was interrupted minutes before the end of the game. Friday's game should be in HD too but it is not in the guide. In my guide, 654-1 shows a PPV movie coming up. I like to get the answer to this...

    HR21-700 playback freezes

    Will my receiver download it automatically tonight or I need to push it myself? If I need to push it myself, how do I do it? Sorry that I came from Dish and is not very familiar with this DVR yet. Thanks!

    HR21-700 playback freezes

    I have HR21-700 for a couple weeks now. It freezes one or two seconds into a playback frequently. When it happens, you can fix it by resetting the unit. Reseting the unit takes many minutes and it stops your recording. Thus it is not a good solution. The problem will come back again within...

    HD RSN status update wanted

    Where is RSN HD after all this? Now the regular MLB season is about to start and we still have not heard from Dish about the plan to provide RSN HD. This is unacceptable and Dish should be liable to a class action law suite in false advertisement. We were made to believe that we would be able...

    No audio

    Another way to resolve this problem is to go to the system setup menu and do a "point dish". After that the audio will be back. At least it works for me every time. One incovenience is that it will stop your active recodings first. But it is easier and quicker than rebooting the receiver.

    942 question about 5.1 sound

    I am also interested iin the answer for this. I am runing 942 in single mode. I notice that sometimes 942 will stuck with NO 5.1 even though the source provides it. The reason is probably because it swtches to use TV2 tuner for some reason. This happens sometimes even when DVR is not...

    942 Ota

    Hi Paraox-SJ, What is your signal strength of channel 20.1 and 20.2? I get 71 to 73 but my other channel come in fine with strength 68. Do you use diplexer or you run a separate line for your OTA? Thanks!

    942 Ota

    I like to concure on this finding. I live in Bay Area and I receive many OTA channels. I have no problems with the other channels that I used to get except channel 20-1 and 20-2 for some reason. Their signal strength is actually better than other channels I am getting. I can see the picture...

    AxE, I was told by 1-800-WOW-HDTV that I need to pay $100 for the extra dish to get VOOM channels. Would a retialer waive this fee for me? I do not understand why DISH cannot use the existing dish provided by VOOM for that.

    NEWS FLASH: New Channels: LIFETIME Net, CMT, National Geographic,...

    I myself is wondering what other HD channels are out there besides INHD & HDNET that we don't have???? Fox Sport Net HD (or Regional Sport Network HD). This channel is very important for a large number of subscribers in my opinion.

    Harmonic Encoder Improvements? (Feedback Need it)

    It appears that the PQ on some HD channels have improved quite a lot today. Color saturation and brightness are much improved. Showtime HD channels improve the most in my opinion. Starz channels still look a bit over compressed. Most VOOM exclusive channels have also improved. But I think...

    Harmonic Encoder Improvements? (Feedback Need it)

    No, the PQ is not getting better. I watched a few shows that I had watched before tonight and yesterday night. They were considerably worse in my 50" plasma TV. The color is dull, not as bright or vibrant as before. The picture is not as sharp as before and is blurry at times. Scene changes...

    Help lost ABC with latest software upgrade*SF Bay area*

    Below is something that I pulled out from AVS forum. The problem we are seeing may be related to this. I assume the ATSC tuner inside VOOM's STB does not comply with this requirement. I wonder if VOOM can fix it with a new software update or VOOM has to update the hardware. January 1, 2005...

    Unofficial: Current Customer Promo on Dec. 1st

    I called VOOM today to schedule the installation to two additional rooms. The CSR gave me the same deal for new customers. I do not have to cancel my old plan first or suffer any interruption of my VOOM service.

    Help lost ABC with latest software upgrade*SF Bay area*

    I have the same problem. Interestingly my TV's ATSC tuner can pick up the signal with no problem. I heard that ABC recently changed their broadcast format (MPEG-4?) to conform to FCC requirement. VOOM's STB apparently cannot decode the new format but many ATSC tuners can. I just called CSR...

    Info bar and plasma burn-in, see-thru info bar?

    I am concerned that the PG info bar on the bottom of the screen could develop burn-in in my plasma. The info bar shows up for 5 seconds or so every time you switch a channel. When I watch an OAR movie, I do occasionally see an image retention of the info bar on the bottom of the black screen...

    Over The Air Scanning Questions (PSIP data missing post here)

    I played some more with the OTA scan. The problem I reported that the PG would not come in for channels not found in most recent saved scan corrected itself after I did a cold reboot (with actual power cord unplug). Interestingly after the cold reboot, a few new channels I picked up from the...

    Over The Air Scanning Questions (PSIP data missing post here)

    Sean, Not quite. Using NBC as an example again. I had the NBC channel mapped and its PG before. In order to receive NBC, I have to point my antenna to a degree of 14. Most of my other local channels can be received with my antenna pointing at degree 310. Now suppose I point my antenna to...
