I can see that. It probably isn't that popular except among UFC fans and some "extreme" sports.

A couple of weeks ago you asked for new HD channel suggestions.....What kind of response did you get and are any of the ones mentioned in the hopper to get added??......Thanks....I would love to see DIY and FuelTV as well

Really? I don't watch it much but the UFC events in HD would be nice. I'd watch it a lot more than some of the other HD channels we get. Most of which get no use in my household.

1022 is working for me. I just checked on both my boxes. I don't think I lost it. I know my wife recorded something on Tuesday and was watching it last night. Have you tried all the typical things to get it working?

they havent shown music in almost a decade.... dont see what the big deal is.... they should change their Name to TeenTV or SnookiTV.

Seems our box does weird things with channels.

if i leave it on a channel all night, goto work, come home (7pm) and turn on the TV it says channel off air (Motorola Overlay), but pressing guide brings the picture back. and Im able to rewind no problem..

does it on any and every channel i repeat the procedure on.

Just checked....Still off air as well as Comedy Central and Spike TV.....Not just on one box but all 4 boxes...I guess a call to Cox is in order

Can anyone tell me exactly what Expanded Service is? I have not been able to equate that to anything on the Cox price list.

http://ww2.cox.com/residential/hamptonroads/tv/pricing.cox

It never has been easy to equate line items on the bill to price lists on the Cox site.

thanks...

If you go to http://ww2.cox.com/wcm/en/residential/datasheet/hamptonroads/channel_lineup.pdf
the second column labeled "Cox TV Essential" are the Expanded Service channels.

Did you ever call Cox and if so what is the deal? Did you get this resolved?

Problem fixed itself....As of Friday afternoon.....Channels 1004, 1007, 1010, 1013, 1014, 1015, 1022, 1032 & 1056 were off air....All came back on around midnight Friday...

I called Cox Friday morning and spent 45 frustrating minutes (The guy could barely speak legible English) on the phone....We did everything under the sun with no success...

Cox Tech came out Saturday afternoon and told me that there had been an accident with a car hitting a telephone pole on Thursday about a mile from my house.. He said that Va Power had to replace the pole before Cox could fix their cable. This apparently was completed late Friday night.

A question to Cox folks.....Why doesn't the phone techs have information as to incidents in the field that affect service????.. i.e. damaged poles, etc....This could have saved me the 45 minutes I spent on the phone with this guy on Friday. The field tech was very frustrated as well, as he had been on several service calls with same issue I had....It would be great if the different departments shared information. JMO....

Right now, Reelz is on 1220 instead of NHL HD......the guide shows it is NHL HD, but that is not what is playing, but it is playing the programs listed at http://www.reelz.com/reelztv/
post #7430 of 8033
Is it still doing it? I'm watching NHL HD right now.
post #7431 of 8033
OK we found the problem. It has been fixed.

Does this mean we have lost Reelz??
post #7433 of 8033
Technically we never had it. lol NHL sent the wrong id for their programming.
post #7434 of 8033
damn, add Reelz to the list of channels we'd want then.

Kelly's Heroes, Coach... Decent lineup.

So, how is that discussion going? Haven't seen any activity in this thread in weeks. Certainly would like all those HD channels without having to go whole house DVR.

I second that.

Does anyone know about availability of the smaller non-DVR HD boxes? I just got a new bedroom TV and that huge old STB just doesn't fit anymore.

I went to the Greebrier location and switched out that huge box for the small one today, they said they had plenty of them.

Does this smaller version have a time display or is it a solid black front?? The clock is the only reason I am holding on the larger box.
