    I woke up this morning to find the USA Network has been added at channel 522.

    general Home theater question.

    I use one for all of my HT equipment--it works for my needs. It's really easy to teach it functions off other remotes and set macros. The only downside is the layout isn't customizable like the Pronto or others like it, but of course, it's alot cheaper than those kind of remotes too. For...

    New HD or SD channels?(Possible New SD Channels: USA, FoxSports East, Ohio & Bay Area

    Are you really that dissatisfied with the quality now? I'm new to Voom, but not to HD, and for the most part the picture quality is great. Sure, it would be nice if there was no pre-filtering and excessive compression, but that's just the way it works in any real world delivery system. Most...

    CONFIRMED: New version 6.10 has arrived! (Please post your observations here)

    Good catch, techweb, on getting the surf bar in transparent mode. It worked for me and is much more preferrable in transparent than opaque mode.

    New HD or SD channels?(Possible New SD Channels: USA, FoxSports East, Ohio & Bay Area

    Well, from the numbers I've seen, it only takes WM9 8 mbps to equal MPEG-2 at 24 mbps. I don't know what Voom is averaging now with MPEG(I've seen some suggest around 14 mbps), but at 10 or 12 mbps, I would expect WM9 encoded material to be considerably better than what we are seeing now. So...

    CONFIRMED: New version 6.10 has arrived! (Please post your observations here)

    OK, I see what you mean. The last menu item is "Channel List" which allows me to hide channels on the guide below 100. It has always been there in version 6.0, as well. Yes, that would be nice--I don't notice any differences in the menu system itself. Maybe it just contained some "fixes"...

    CONFIRMED: New version 6.10 has arrived! (Please post your observations here)

    There is no "Hide OTA" that I can see and the installation wizard is in the installers menu. It looks all the same to me. My guide information finally came up, at least. In the systems settings it shows: Current Software Version: V00.01.10 HAL Version: 00.06.10.

    CONFIRMED: New version 6.10 has arrived! (Please post your observations here)

    I got the new software, but I don't have any programming info. or any of the new features like the transparent guide. Anyone have any ideas? It's like it downloaded the new version, but it didn't integrate it.

    stb problem - anyone else? Yes, don't reboot if you don't have to

    I've had mine off most of the day after rebooting several times. The main guide came up right away when I just tried it, but it went to a black screen when tuning a channel. I'm going to reboot and see if it works for me like it has started working for others. I just got it saturday, so...

    OTA INSTALLATION POLL: How many attempts did it take your installer(s)?

    I was a little concerned after reading some of the horror stories, but my installers were great. They were in and out in less than an hour and got good signal lock and all the channels, including OTA, in a jiffy.
