    Anyone elses VOOM time off?

    Mine isn't off by 2 minutes, but I do notice when I use my program planner, it switches channels/turns on about 30 seconds into the show. Is there a way to calibrate the clock?

    OTA Stealth antenna

    Installing the "Stealth" higher helped me! I also had the stealth installed and recieve all local channels, with intermitant problems receiving FOX (all stations broadcast within 15 miles of me). Voom sent out the installers twice to solve my FOX reception problem with no luck. They even...

    Voom treats Charter Members Poorly

    Vurbano, what you don't account for is many of us charter members kept our other program providers (D*, E* or cable) during "free" Voom programing simply because Voom didn't have the level of sevice, quality and programing to be able to drop the other provider. It would have been "free" if we...

    Are you going to deinstall to switch to lease?

    This is news to me!! I was contacted by Voom two weeks ago requesting what programming I wanted after the "free" period ends. During this conversation, we also discussed the lease option. I was told I could wait until April 30th (money back gaurantee expiration) to decide to lease or not...

    Repeating Planner Entry?

    I've been asking for this for 4 months. It bothers me to no end that I can't set my Voom box to sync with my DVD/HDD recorder automatically each week. VCR's have been doing this for 20 years. It would seem to be an easy, programing fix, but then again I'm in marketing, what do I know about...

    Sound sync issues (not the >1sec issue)

    I've noticed this also. I can't tell if I'm "looking" for it, therefor it is there ....or if it really is there? I've noticed it since day one (Dec.)

    Fox News Is Up On CH. 412 "Thanks VoOM"

    This had to be done. FOX News is by far the most popular 24 news channel. Great job Voom and epanding your product with true mass appeal, priotity stations (top rated). Only ESPN is missing from America's (not necessarily mine) "must have" list. Now please give me a program timer that can...

    VOOM vs. DirecTV Comparison

    Unfortunately, it is a very rudementary planner that only schedules 1-2 days in advance. It can be very cumbersome in the sense that if you select a future program from the guide it defaults to only displaying a reminder that the selected show is about to begin. If you want it to automatically...

    Detroit VOOM installations

    Voom in Detroit, MI The only local specific issues I have are: 1. Local Fox station looses HD signal often. I don't understand this since I live only appox. 7 miles from the broadcast ant. 4/26 update. I now get FOX fine. We merely raised the Stealth antenna higher (orignally approx...

    zooming 4:3 to fill 16:9 screen

    I am able to stretch all SD programs, unless they are broadcast on an HD channel. For example, when watching "Freinds" via the Voom Over the Air digital receiver, it has pillars because it is not broadcast in wide mode AND it transmitted on a digital (HD) channel. I am, however, able to...

    A Poll on Voom as primary or combined content provider

    I currently carry both Voom and basic cable. However, I can only afford one provider. Voom must carry more very popoular SD channels and be program recorder freindly. I will keep Voom as the sole provider if three major issues are solved: 1. #1 cable news show missing - FOX News 2. #1...

    Voom HD vs Dish HD

    I have the latest Sony Wega 50' LCD with a 720P native resolution. I keep my Voom resolution setting at automatic as per Voom's general recommendation. Is this thread recommending I fix the resolution at 720 all the time, no matter what resolution program I am watching?

    Are you still having problems with your VOOM box (OTA Problems)?

    I've done all the stretch modes via remote. The screen inicates each mode as I switch to them, but the picture does not stretch/react to any of them. Yes, I am in Video 5. I just need to reiterate, I can stretch normal SD channels this way, it is only when there is an SD program running on an...

    Are you still having problems with your VOOM box (OTA Problems)?

    You haven't missed anything. Sounds like you can stretch and I can't. I'm aware of all the stretch modes for the GWIII, unfortunately none of them react to a SD signal within a digital/hd capable channel (ie...all locals via voom HD tuner and channels like starshd showing a non HD movie). I...

    Are you still having problems with your VOOM box (OTA Problems)?

    Sound match with visual: sometimes sound does not perfectly match visual. I haven't determined a real pattern to this occurrance....... no Voom answers on this. Does it happen in every channel or just in one or is it particular to a specific movie? I do not want to doubt what you are...
