HD channels with Video & Sound Problem 5/29/04

[rollerfink]

I just got done watching on the record with Bob Costas on HBOWHD and the signal was breaking up and there were frequent audio drops. It was fine for the earlier broadcast on HBOHD. Then I flipped around and this is occurring on all HBO channels but not on any others. My signal quality is at 96.

Is this happenning to everyone?

I saw it breaking up too. Hopfully Wilt is working on things and thats the reason.

I'm watching Rocky on TNTHD right now and its doing the same thing.

 

[rollerfink]

At least it's not just me. Hopefully they're taling time away from the BBQ to fix it.

 

[Scubasoul]

Yep, audio problems galore today.

Drop outs on HBOHD, ShowtimeHD, EncoreHD,... then I rebooted.

 

[rollerfink]

Did rebooting fix it? I haven't tried that yet.

audio vidio dropouts

Anybody experiencing dropouts my digital signal keeps going off and on and the picture pixelates any ideas?

 

[ChetK]

Yes. I'm getting them too. Specifically on MAXHD and TNTHD.

 

[Scubasoul]

Nope, just did a quick check and still have them at least on EncoreHD (plus some video break-up as well)

 

[Scubasoul]

Yes, see the "HBO" thread as well.

They seem to have some problems today.

I saw it on HBO HD west and TNT-HD. I did not see it on HBO-HD East.

 

[Sean Mota]

Merged both threads... which showhd is breaking up east or west? I have seen the same on encore hd as well. I have sent an email to wilt to check this behavior as well. So please be specific with channels and what you are seeing so that he can have as much information as possible. Thanks.

It seems to be happening on all HD feeds, but nothing on SD. unplugged and rebooted but not curing problem. Can't call voom because after on hold for 10 minutes you get a please call back and less busier time msg..

Wonderful.....

 

[Scubasoul]

Sean,

I believe it was ShowWestHD, but I was just switching channels randomly and saw it on quite some channels.

Now, I can't remember all, I just know it was there.

I do not think it is happening in every HD channel. There has been mentioned already of HBO-HD West, Encore-HD, TNT-HD.

Showtime HD which feed east/west or both?
Cinemax HD which feed east/west or both?

 

[Sean Mota]

I looked at ShowHD west and did not see it. Remember to stay in the channel for at least 5 minutes before changing it

 

[vurbano]

I didnt see any of it on the exclusive channels. I did on HBO though

 

[rollerfink]

For me it was happening on all HBo channels, both HD and SD. I didn't notice it on other channels and I'm away from the TV right now.

 

[vurbano]

HBOE and W are screwed up

 

[vurbano]

Showtime east and west seem ok
