Extreme tiling when watching premium HD channels.
I get tiling on two of our boxes when there happen to be 3 or 4 of them on at once (worse when it's two DVR boxes). This has happened for some time where it would tile out and correct in a decent amount of time, but I absolutely lost it this past weekend. It happens most notably on HBOHD and happened for over a minute. I've called and complained about this in the past and they sent a tech out to check the lines, and it turned out there was a line that was bad, a company came out and fixed it and that helped it, but didn't alleviate it. I've had the techs reset the boxes, and I've even cleared the memory (7 up/7 down) on it and it still happens. It's increasingly frustrating, I miss the punch line in jokes or the jokes entirely all due to the tiling happens to such a degree like I've got satellite in a hurricane. It also happens on Fox Sports Oklahoma (during football & basketball games, even on the replays hours later). It's forced me to watch the channels in non-HD on an HD box because the tiling isn't as bad - yes it doesn't even fully go away on the non-HD channels. I look to you for an answer. Please assist in this matter.3.1KViews0likes4Comments
Tiling, TV Screen is tiling
I'm writing this because it wont let me answer a question in the TV Forum about this subject. Usually when tiling occurs, it is the splitter you are using in your home. Over time they wear out / short out, which causes the tiling. I am helping my GPA in vegas, and the cable guy also said that the cable, originally installed when his condo was built, is old and needs to be replaced. The cable guy also told me that COX is not willing to replace that cable through the walls, they are only willing to run new cable on the outside of the building, which is against HOA rules and regulations. Basically, somehow we have to run our own cable out to COX's cable box on our own???? Very interesting.2.7KViews0likes1Comment
picture tiling and sound spazz
For several months now I have been experiencing picture tiling and terrible sound on the major network channels and some of the cable channels, but not all. I have done all the recommended fixes ie, check connections, reset cable box, blah, blah, blah.... and none have fixed the problem. What is going on?2.6KViews0likes1Comment
