Get Sage! (sorry couldn't resist :) ) You trained MCE to use the VOOM remote correct? When MCE changes channels do you see the LED on the front of the VOOM receiver blink? It blinks everytime it detects a valid IR code. If it is not blinking do your have the IR emitter connected to the...

I have several ota stations such as pbs that are 21-1, 21-2, 21-3, and 21-4 - does anyone know how to tune those channels directly using the remote (and not using channel up/down or guide)? The reason I ask is I have a PVR system that sends channel changes using the 0-9 buttons. Some STBs...

Yep - you would need another tuner card in addition to the one in the bundle. It seems like SageTV does support the IR Emitter included with the package. The only downside to it is that it only has one "emitter". This would need to be located somewhere when it can shower all of your receivers...

I believe the retail kits for both ship with the same remote control - the retail kit for the PVR-150 also includes an IR emitter - though I have not tried to use it with SageTV. For channel changing duties I would recommend the USB-UIRT - it has native support in SageTV and can be used to all...

The Convertx box is a MPEG-4 encoder - the Hauppauge cards are MPEG-2. The advantage of MPEG-4 is you get *roughly* the same quality but take up a lot less hard drive space. If your ultimate goal is the best quailty recordings - go with the hauppauge cards. The PVR150 is a great card for the...

The Voom box has a picture format menu setting (this is under the advanced settings) that enables you to output 16x9 content as "stretched" vertically instead of inserting the top and bottom black bars. If you record this stretched content (using all 480 lines of the capture capability of your...

Try SageTV SageTV is also worth a look - it has the Voom listings, supports multiple tuners (I have my 3 voom boxes connected to it and capable of recording 3 things at once). It also allows for me to connect analog cable or other providers. MCE limits you to 2 analog tuners and 1 OTA HDTV...

I have two Voom receivers in one room and was wondering if anyone has found a way to set the remote address of the receivers (so you can use 1 rmeote to uniquely address 1 receiver). Most other Motorola stbs have this capability.

Ah, Thanks!

Ok, I must be a little slow :o I go to option 7 "Installer Menu" which has 4 options on it - if I understand correctly I should then just have to enter "8" twice and the menu should pop up correct? Nohting is happening for me. I also tried "5", "6" and "7" twice - no go, so I must not be on...

"Zoom" button for Voom - hidden menus? I have a new 3 room Voom system and two of my sets are HD - no problem, they have aspect ratio buttons that allow me to toggle AR for those channels that broadcast 4:3 content on an "HD" channel. However I have one older SDTV that has no such settings. I...
