HD Cable Sucks[views:2061][posts:26]______________________________________ [Jul 23,2006 6:30pm - the_reverend ""] the audio never synchs with the video |
| _____________________________________ [Jul 23,2006 6:37pm - xanonymousx ""] hmmm.... comcast? comcast always has communication errors. home many spits do you have in your house you may need a cable amplifier |
| ______________________________________ [Jul 23,2006 6:40pm - the_reverend ""] I think the line has 0 |
| _____________________________________ [Jul 23,2006 6:44pm - xanonymousx ""] thats odd maybe they are working on it in your area? |
| ______________________________________ [Jul 23,2006 7:06pm - the_reverend ""] for the past 2 1/2 years? |
| _____________________________________ [Jul 23,2006 7:09pm - xanonymousx ""] that long!? have you ever called them up to see what the problem is? i mean you are paying extra to have some extra pixels of pure hd greatness. |
| _____________________________ [Jul 23,2006 7:12pm - pam ""] fuck comcast. |
| ______________________________________ [Jul 24,2006 6:02pm - the_reverend ""] INTERNETS! the basic channels are fine, but the ones that broadcast normal cable encoded for digital are so off. also, digital cable lags behind analog cable by 8 seconds. everything's in synch |

More than likely the cable coming into the building is split 50 million ways, much like here in my own condo. 2) Set up your cable! go into your settings menu and make sure you're not set up for digital video and analogue audio or something like that. 3) call your cable company and tell them the problem. It might be a converter in your box gone bad, or something equally simple. |
| ______________________________________ [Jul 24,2006 7:17pm - the_reverend ""] 1) nope, each condo has it's own line coming in from the street 2) hm.. I'll have to look at that. 3) I will after #2. Fox is always like that. |
| ________________________________________ [Jul 24,2006 7:46pm - ArrowHead nli ""] 1) For real? You lucky, LUCKY bastard. I get shit internet speed, and my cable blows. I pay for a second digital box in my room, but the on demand feature won't work. They said theres nothing they can do, because the signal is spliced so many times that they get lost on the way. It's that way in most condo and apartments. |
| ______________________________________ [Jul 24,2006 7:56pm - the_reverend ""] aw.. you are making me blush. you say the sweetest things about my cable |
| __________________________________ [Jul 24,2006 8:00pm - succubus ""] it's because our condo only has 5 units =) |

| ____________________________________ [Jul 24,2006 8:39pm - MattKings ""] the only HD channel that does not synch up is fox through my Comcast HD box, other than that comcast and HDTV rules |
| ______________________________________ [Jul 24,2006 8:54pm - the_reverend ""] and fox is the only one that counts. so it's not just me? that's good. |
| ____________________________________ [Jul 24,2006 8:59pm - MattKings ""] yea its actually FOXs problem now that i think of it. I sell TVs at sears and we would get FOXHD right off a HD antenna and the audio did not synch up either. |
| ______________________________________ [Jul 24,2006 9:04pm - the_reverend ""] maybe it's just a feature that we can't understand? |
| __________________________________ [Jul 24,2006 9:10pm - powerkok ""] not mine, mine rules.... |
| ______________________________________ [Jul 24,2006 9:11pm - the_reverend ""] yours doesn't have this awesome advanced feature? I feel sorry for you |
| _____________________________________________ [Jul 24,2006 9:14pm - DrinkHardThrashHard ""] For real? When I move to the new condo I was thinking of getting this with the new TV....is it worth the extra bucks? |
| _____________________________________ [Jul 24,2006 11:15pm - MattKings ""] yes it is, HDTV is awesome |
| ___________________________________ [Jul 24,2006 11:21pm - dertoxia ""] it's not that your tv audio isnt synched with the video......your eyes arent synched with your ears. meat skewer up the nose should do the trick. |

Phone your cable company, and schedule an appointment for a repairman to come and service your house. When he arrives, dismember him and run some of his parts through a meat grinder. CArefully stuff natural pork casings with the meat, eventually incorporating it into a gift basket you leave on the steps of some executives at the cable company. I don't know, just an idea. -Timothy JOhn |
| ____________________________________ [Jul 25,2006 2:27am - MattKings ""] its not comcasts fault, its definitly fox. Ive seen HD Fox on a bunch of feeds, dish, comcast and antenna, and its all the same in this area. done |
| ______________________________________ [Jul 25,2006 2:36am - the_reverend ""] HDTV is f'n awesome. those sunrise earth shows are the bomb. and TV shows shot is HD are crazy. you can see everything. |
