Here we go again.... Man are they starting to piss me off. First it was the technical problems..those have continued. Every week or so my box magically gets unauthorized and I have to call in and have them zap it. I guess I've gotten used to that so it doesn't bother me as much. Now I...

I knew this was going to happen. I dreaded going with adelphia from the very beginning. They sucked 4 years ago when I had them and they suck now. They're showing Star Wars AOTC in HD on my local fox station...so...I tune in to Fox HD, and whaddya know....all my HD locals are...

Now the thing has stopped passing any 5.1 sound. All sound coming out of it is in regular stereo no matter if I use the coax or the optical. I double checked to make sure it's not my receiver by plugging in my dvd player to the same input the 8300 is on and it plays 5.1 just fine. I looked...

I've read that eventually they plan on moving the channels off the 61.5 sat or possibly moving the sat itself. Anyone know how soon this may happen? I'm that much closer to getting dishes officially approved in my condo, but if they do get approved, they will not approve more than 1 dish per...

Had them for less than two weeks, get home, see a nice message on my screen. "Your EXPLORER settop is NOT AUTHORIZED for use." So I call...according to the CSR, the computer that sends the authorization signals to all the boxes in my area is down. How the hell?!?!? WTF?!?!?! Don't they...

Is it possible to record based on time rather than based on programming? For example, say a program runs from 1:00 - 3:00, but I only want to recorde from 1:30 - 2:00 or something like that. Is there any way to do this? Also, say I want to record just a segment of a show. For example...

Let me explain. First off, I have to say I'm very glad someone has picked up the voom channels. However, I feel a little pissed off that they waited until the day before the scheduled shutdown to tell people about it. Especially considering that for the past few weeks they have been telling...

Well, now that I have adelphia and my condo board is reviewing our satellite dish policy, I may or may not be able to switch to dishnet. Does anyone know if adelphia has any plans to add the voom21 channels like dishnet has just done?

Help!! I realize this doesn't belong in this forum, and the actual thread can be found in the general satellite forum, but I need as much help as I can get and since this forum currently has the most traffic, I'm hoping more people will see it here. Basically my condo board is...

NEED HELP!! I live in a condo complex where currenty dishes are not allowed, although in the past they were allowed, so several people already have dishes. The board has appointed a committee to review this policy and I volunteered to research the issue and make recommendations. I think I...

I know this is a satellite site, but with the demise of voom and many of us voomers switching to cable, might this site expand and add an HD cable section for us displaced voomers?

For the love of god, why voom, why?!!?!?!? I'm not a religious man, but as of today I believe I'm going to start praying for a miracle. Got adelphia installed today. Everything was fine except the InHD channels didn't come in. The installer didn't know squat about programming so he said...

What movies did you see for the first time on the voom exclusive channels that you had never seen before, but are glad you saw them thanks to voom? They don't have to be great or classic movies, but just movies you liked that you would have probably never seen had voom not showed them. For...

I'm reading some threads about people getting great offers from directv and timewarner and comcast, but my local cable company Adelphia wouldn't budge off their standard rates and aren't offering anything special to anyone according to what they told me. I'm wondering if anyone else has been...

The most telling sign I've seen so far regarding Voom's fate! Just speculation, but.... There's a store called Brandsmart that has been offering a 300.00 Voom rebate with the purchase of a big-screen HDTV for the past couple of months. As of today, they have stopped this rebate offer.

Ok, I figured since voom is going down, I'd get the vavavoom package till they finally die. I am currently still being billed 39.95. So, I had read on several other threads that people who are still on the 39.95 plan have been allowed to upgrade and keep the 79.95 rate. I called, told the CSR...

Anyone else having the same problem? Over the past couple of days, the guide and menu on my box seem to be slow as molasses suddenly. Is it just me?

I'm in Miami and for some reason my reception for channel 4 gets much worse when the weather gets cold (considering I'm in Miami, I'm talking about when it drops into the 60's or low 70's). The warmer it is, the more consistent, the colder, the less consistent. What happens is I'll be...

I need to sell my Mits 65411. I listed it on the classified forum here, but are there any other good places anyone can recommend to sell something like this? I'd like to sell it soon since it's just way too big for the small condo I just moved into.

I'm selling it because I moved to a smaller apartment and it's simply too big for it. I love the TV, but just don't have the room in the new place. It's in almost perfect condition and has the basic adjustments using Avia. I've seen a 65311 sell on ebay recently for 1900, so I figure a...

I'm mainly interested in sports events like boxing and UFC and Pride Fighting and things like that. Any word on if voom will have any kind of PPVs anytime soon?

ok, so I'm flipping around my locals and while watching channel 10, at about 10:30 the image froze..the audio was fine though...i switched channels to channel 7, it was ok, I flipped back to 10 and got a black screen and no audio. I then changed to channel 2 and watched it for about five...

I need a good wireless video/audio sender. I currently have the one from radio shack that looks like a flying saucer and it's the biggest waste of $80.00 I've made in a long time. I get these horizontal lines constantly flashing from some kind of interference and no matter what wireless...

I'm watching the Dolphins game on channel 4-1 and am getting freezing left and right, the audio level is jumping all over the place, and maybe it's just me but there is no commentary. What happened to the commentators (although this is minor compared to the freezing)???? Anyone else having...

My dish made it through Frances, but then again we only got about 40 mph winds with some higher gusts. Ivan the terrible looks like it's coming right for us with winds of 150+. I understand dishes are rated to 120mph winds. Is there any chance my dish won't turn into a flying missile or...
