    Hey all you fanbois, calm down. There's like 10 responses to my post and not a single one ANSWERING the question. How about if you don't can't contribute then don't post stupid stuff and waste our time? Let me rephrase the question: *IF* Voom goes dead at the end of March, what will...

    Is the Voom coax HDTV?

    Hey guys; The Voom box, it has many outputs. I ask about the coax outlet that the Voom box has. In my parents house, they have a system installed that takes a coax input and can modulate it throughout the house. Their Voom box is hooked via component cables into their projector and...

    Voom remote throughout the house?

    Hey guys! My parents have a complicated home video thing setup. The way it is setup, there are three Voom boxes in the house, but the output of a Voom box is fed via coax into this modulator which can send it to whichever coax outlets in the house that you want. So, say we have a Voom box...

    Voom on a 4:3 (PG sucks!)

    The Voom STB is currently connected to the TV via coax. It's a 24" SDTV. This is at my parents.. Should I go use composite cables to hook it up? Or stick with the coax? I have their STB setup to letterbox the widescreen content so that it looks ok on their TV. The problem is the letters...

    Voom on a 4:3 (PG sucks!)

    Hey guys! The Voom PG looks horrible on a 4:3 TV. What can I do to adjust the format of the PG to make it look proper on a 4:3? I already adjusted the video so the channels themselves look ok, but scrolling in the PG sucks and all that. I'm sure its a configuration issue.

    Solution to the phone line problem ...

    Aye.. Functionally, since the Voom box has a USB port, is it possible that they could update the firmware in to allow it to use a USB (wireless?) network interface card to talk to voom?

    Solution to the phone line problem ...

    Sorry about the language - just frustrated with trying to be somewhat on the edge of technology -- purchase a HDTV, but local cable doesnt have HD programming. I want the best satellite system, but it requires an ancient phone line which I had to have re-hooked up (I only use my cell, I dont...

    Component video switch box

    Hmm, that Madcatz, that seems so cheap. It always worries me when something that claims to do the same thing ranges from $30 to $300 in price. Anyone know the bandwidth on that thing?

    Solution to the phone line problem ...

    Do what Tivo does. Why do you need a phone line? It's stupid. I'm reading about Tivo, and it says Tivo can connect to a wired or wireless home network. That's a beautiful solution. Put a little 802.11b wireless card in the Voom STB. Nice! Of course that requires updating all the...
