To answer your question, On Demand also gives you access to hit series on premium and cable channels. For example, I enjoy being able to watch the first episode of the Sopranos this season, and not having to use hard drive space to do it. It gives you a lot of flexibility accessing a large...

I like the Comcast digital and HD channels but analog sucks. I still kept D* for Tivo. Have to do that since I watch a lot of SciFi and USA, and the recording time on the COmcast box is too short. Part of me really wants to get an HD Tivo, but Ithink I shoudl wait for the new D* boxes.

Channels change on the fly with the cable card. I added one to my TV and love it. I get all the HD channels, all all of the channels included in my package with no lag. In addition, the analog channels look 10 times better through via the cable card.

1,000 mhz splitter Make sure you use a 1,000 mhz splitter to ensure quality. Before I split the feed, I had Comcast test the outlet to measure the feed. A good positive feed, ensures better signal after the split is done.

Sound Issues on ABC Driving Me Nuts Tonight Anybody getting this issue? I am getting a lot of noise that sounds like the left speaker is ratteling or blown. My speakers are brand new and this has me worried. I have to turn the sound on really loud as well. They odd thing is I do not experience...

ABC Issues, Recording Alias and Lost I have had the 6412 since Januray and had sime minor hiccups with ABC. My Comcast contact said there have been issues serving the ABC content in a few markets. Something about being one of the last stations they added and feed issues from one to the other. I...

I get that too especially when using dolby digital, optical cable. This issue only occurs on the analog channels below 100. I usually hit the swap button, and use the other tuner. For some reason one tuner will pipe out the analog SD channels over optical cable, but the other will not. It...

If the guide is wrong it will not record. In regards to the pre-empt, it depends on the adnvanced notice. My HD DVR from Comcast, and my Tivo D* boxes all recorded the President's speech, but the reordings reflected the name of the shows I have Season Passes for. Even my TV had the episode...

Getting a Comcast Cable Card Next Week! I will let you guys know how this works. I have 2 HD DVR's now, but wanted to try the cable card since it is free. I know that there will not be a guide, nor pay per view purchasing ability with the card.

High Speed Internet Deal I gave Comcast my old DSL Modem, and got a $4.99 monthly deal for Internet Services, plus a $3 monthly rental charge. This offer is for 6 months at $7.99 a month. Once the promo is over, I will probably buy a cable modem to avoid the $3 monthly charge (had to rent the...

No VOD here in South Florida. Any HD VOD, or HD Pay Per View yet?

I am in South Florida as well, and have been watching Enterprise with my OTA in order to see it in HD. I have not heard of any plans to get WB or UPN in HD on Comcast in my area. Any idea where I can find teh HD planned updates for Comcast?

INHD guide is fine here in Florida, but I have seen errors with TNTHD all week. Wrong movies listed, and teh NBA playoff game.

Added this weekend in South Florida. . .

The Motoral 6412 has a 30 Second Skip, remote control hack. I posted instructions in another forum.

TNT-HD In South Florida TNT-HD was added to my line-up this weekend in Pembroke Pines (between Maimi and Fort Lauderdale). I also heard that there would be around 7 new HD channels by year end.

Comcast 30 Second-Skip Remote Control Hack You can remap any of the buttons on the Comcast silver remote control. From what I have heard, all of the Motorola boxes' remote controls allow for discrete button codes. I am using theses feature on a Motorola HD-Dual Tuner box. Once programmed on...

Your welcome! I heard a new box is coming with HDMI ports soon. I also heard about an external hard drive, 7 more HD channels by year end, and TNT-HD being added today. I just bought a Tivo DVD-recorder which I will set up tomorrow and test some of the additional ports. If interested, I can...

User Settings and 30 Second Skip Turn your box off, hit "menu" on the remote control, and then you will have a user setting screen. You can change the HD resolution, and the SD resolution. I have my HD at 1080i and my SD set at 480P. Please not that this is for the Motorola 6412 HD Dual-tuner...

The Motorola HD Dual Tuner boxes have optical and RCA audio outs. In regards to video, there are component, RCA, and DVI outs. I have not tested the ports so I am not sure if you can output from more than one port at a time. I currently use the component out for video and optical out for...

HD Recordings Look Great! I have had the box installed less than a week and thus far very impressed. Comcast has some work to do on my cable at the junction (upgrading cables) so I will not complete a review until this work has been completed. I will say initial impressions are pretty good...

Brian, Have you ben able to archive anything yet? I have a Mac, and a Sony with firewire ports? I will ask if the ports are active.

Sean, Thanks for the info. I am a Voom and D* subscriber and was doing some research on alternatives in case Voom goes away, or an E* HD DVR replacement for my D* Tivo's (SD). I came across the article you posted and called Comcast, since the website said HDTV and DVR's where not available. I...
