Anyone else having this problem?? I know it isn't a new problem, but for the past couple days I get a snowy screen everytime I change the channel, and it seems to be 2-3 times longer than usual. I used to only get it when going from HD to SD, but now it occurs everytime.

Mine does this whenever I change HD to SD and if the HD formats are different. I just thought this was how it tuned...? I set my Voom box to the auto select (all 4 bars.)

This is known bug with native resolution (all 4 bars lit). You can circunvent the bug by changing to 720p or 1080i.
Mine does it as well. It's just your set adjusting to lock in the resolution change, it is NOT anything to do with your Voom service or stb.
It's NOT A BUG, all TV's have to resync to the new resolution, and unless Voom starts blanking out their video for a longer period of time like Dish does, the snow will be a fact of life when the stb is in Native.

After hearing some of the descriptions of these problems I'm wondering how HDTV experienced some of the complainers are? And by problem I mean you can not see the picture. Usually you can not watch anything in the milisecond it takes to change the channel. There is always a "lock-in" period when switching any channel and more-so in HD. It's a problem if you can't see the picture or it in any way iterferes with watching a program; not while changing channels. Welcome to HDTV. Hope you have more savy and patience with computers....cell phones.....automobiles. Or did you decide that those things didn't work either?
Do you guys really think it's a problem? I prefer to see the snow than have to wait 6 seconds for my stinkin 6000 to change and lock on a channel and it's not even changing resolution, it's fixed at 1080i. How many of you see the snow when changing to a channel that has the same resolution? If you do, then it's a problem with your set. My pj never shows snow unless I switch resolution.techweb said:
