    Using tv speakers with uverse receiver

    I was able to get the tv speakers working by changing the digital audio option in the uverse receiver to stereo from surround. I guess that means that my Panasonic ST60 hdtv will not accept a surround sound signal from the the uverse box. Thanks.

    Using tv speakers with uverse receiver

    I had everything hooked up yesterday and I wanted to know if it is possible to just use the tv speakers on my Panasonic hdtv when watching uverse tv. I don't always want to fire up my full home theater sound system when watching uverse. I currently have an hdmi cable going straight to my tv from...

    No new HD in Garland,Tx.

    I thought about going back to TWC but the new HD channels that were recently added are only available in Dallas, Mesquite, Plano and Richardson. TWC said Garland would not get them until the end of the year. I don't see why they can't do it now.

    Regular network channels w/o cable subscription?

    Thanks stevenl for that information. I guess they can put this internet trap on without having to go into the apt. The guy who came out to pick up the cable box did not do anything except pick up the box. Thanks.

    Regular network channels w/o cable subscription?

    I recently canceled my cable tv service with TW about 6 or 7 weeks ago but I kept my high speed internet with them. I had a cable box but they picked that up and I tried connecting the cable directly into my Sony HD tv and I was still able to pick up channels 2-99 along with a number of digital...

    RoadRunner BW Increase

    Beware if you upgrade to RR basic speed and already have a discount on your account. When I got the flyer in the mail, I called to make sure there was no catch and was assured that there would be no price increase. Well when I got my next bill it was $36.00 a month more. I called and they said...

    HDNet now on TWC in Dallas

    I actually live in Garland,Tx. but as of last Thursday I have been receiving HDNet and Universal HD. HDNet looks very good and I would have to say it looks as good as INHD. I am glad they added these channels since INHD2 has gone away. Anyone heard about them adding ESPN2 HD anytime?

    No more INHD2 in Garland,TX.(Dallas)

    I don't know how to force an update on the cable box but I did get a message from TWC saying that my cable box may need to be reprogramed since getting the new channel lineup. I have not had to do that but I don't really even know what they are talking about when they say "reprogram your cable box."

    No more INHD2 in Garland,TX.(Dallas)

    :mad: Well the new TWC channel lineup went into effect yesterday and I don't have INHD2 anymore. I called and they said it had been removed even though several weeks ago they said it would remain when the new channel lineup started. This is very disappointing because I really like INHD2 and the...

    6412-DVI to HDMI connection

    Anyone using a DVI to HDMI connection on their 6412 box and how well does it work? My next hdtv will have a HDMI input only and I was going to get one of those DVI to HDMI cables but I wonder what success others have had using this. I could upgrade by box for one of the new Comcast boxes with...

    Muting problem with DVR 6412

    I think this may have been mentioned before but when I turn on the tv while the dvr is recording something, it sends the receiver into a mute mode. I can't do anything until after the recording is over. Thanks for any help. Matt

    Sound level problem on Moto 6412?

    The only thing I know to suggest is to try the digital coax output on the 6412 or even the analog outputs.

    Comcast installed today in Dallas

    I was having trouble getting Discovery HD along with bad reception on some analog channels after the initial Comcast installation. Comcast came back out today and the tech took a reading of the signal and did something to the cable outlet in the wall. All I know is that all the channels look...

    Comcast HD

    Comast HD channels have been outstanding so far. I just got installed last weekend. I like the dvr also. It is my first experience with one and it is rather cool. I wish channels 65-99 came in better. I have been told 2-99 are analog and some of them are pretty much unwatchable. One of them is...

    Comcast installed today in Dallas

    Update on my Comcast installation: I was wrong about Time Warner taking over for Comast in my city. I live in Garland and so it is not affected. It applies to Dallas. I am now getting Discovery HD and it looks great for now. I still cannot get the free On Demand movies to play and I can't get...

    Comcast digital box question

    If you go into the menu with the digital box off, you can change the "4:3 overide to 480i, 480p or off. I tried all three but it made no difference in the analog channels. I ended up leaving it at 480p. I do use the DVI output on the Comcast box and it works good for all channels even though...

    Comcast installed today in Dallas

    Thanks for the various input on this subject. I tried using the splitter and it really made a lot of difference on some of the channels what were not that good but it messed up some other channels that were ok. I am going try some other cable on it tomorrow. Using composite output helped a...

    Comcast installed today in Dallas

    I just had Comcast installed in Garland(a suburb of Dallas) today and it went rather well for the most part. The installer told me right off the bat that HD was not available in my area for right now but would be in a few weeks when Time Warner takes over for Comcast. Well I was not too happy...
