Removing the duplicate HD channels on 1000-1950
Greetings, Back on my Cox October 2020 bill, they announced the following: ===================== IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR COX PROGRAMMING HD CHANNELS on 1000's Effective on or after 12/3/2020, we're making it easier to watch the channels you love. We are removing the duplicate HD channels on 1000-1950. You can still enjoy the programming previously on these channels by tuning into the lower 2 or 3-digit corresponding channel number. Example: 1010 go to 10 / 1143 go to 143 Your DVR recordings, favorites and parental controls won't be affected, so you won't have to do a thing. ================== To this day, this change has not occurred on my end, though I've reset my Cox cable box numerous times since December 2020 to see if it'll update (using both the online reset tool and by unplugging the power & cable lines from the cable box). In my channel guide, I still have the 2-digit HD channels and the corresponding/duplicate 1000-series HD channels. For example, I have a channel 24 and 1024. If I favorite either channel, both get favorited. I can watch either channel, as I cycle through my favorite channels. I understood why this duality of channels existed during the years that Cox was transitioning from SD to HD. But according to the Cox announcement on my bill, this condition would be eliminated and shouldn't exist any longer. So what's going on here and is there a way to resolve it? Thank you4.1KViews0likes6CommentsHow often should you reset or unplug your box? My friend treats his contour box like a computer and reboots it daily or right before watches something. Especially in HD. Necessary or not?
Why do you have to constantly unplug or reboot your contour box? Box is under two years old.1.2KViews0likes2Comments
HD CABLE RECEIVER BOX
Hello, I have Economy TV channels, a HD TV and a cable box. I want to get rid of the cable box and just connect my TV direct to the Cox cable..I did this, scanned but no channels were there. Does Cox have to re-program or come out to me ? Thanks ~Solved3.2KViews0likes5Comments
HD Receiver Fan Noise
Just got Cox subscription, and have an HD receiver that constantly has the fan running whether the box is in standby mode or on. Is there ever a time the fan shuts off? It's annoying from a noise perspective, as well as being a potential energy eater as well even when not using the TV or HD receiver itself. Wondering if this is normal or not, and if it can be avoided.Solved24KViews0likes38Comments
Trouble after upgrading regular advanced cable to HD box
Hi, hoping someone has experienced this or has any advice for me. I recently learned I could get an HD advanced TV box for no additional a charge. I took my regular box to the cox solutions store and swapped it out for the HD one. When I hooked it up, it went through to the TV correctly but would not load properly. So I took it back for another box. This time, it won't even go through to the TV via HDMI. It says no signal no matter what input I put it in. I've tried three HDMI cables, and checked everything and it won't go through to the TV at all. How else can I troubleshoot this? Thnx2KViews0likes1Comment
