style='mso-bookmark:_Toc36803554'>Can I discuss Optimum Online here?
Generally speaking, no.
Optimum Online discussions are held in the lioptonline Yahoo!
Group. (The “li” is for Long Island,
but the group has since expanded and includes users from Cablevision’s entire
Optimum Online service area in New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut.)style="mso-spacerun: yes"> See href="http://groups.yahoo.com/group/lioptonline">http://groups.yahoo.com/group/lioptonline
for more information.
Generally speaking, no.
While there is no specific discussion group for Optimum Voice, it is a
discussion better suited for the Optimum Online discussion group (see “href="#_Can_I_discuss">Can I discuss Optimum Online here?”).
No. This group is
not maintained, owned, moderated, or endorsed in any way by Cablevision.style="mso-spacerun: yes"> That being said, there are a few Cablevision
employees who regularly read and post to the group (see “Who
is Wilt Hildenbrand?” and “Who is Rick Spanbauer?”).style="mso-spacerun: yes"> However, they do this on their own time, and
not as an official part of their jobs.

Wilt Hildenbrand is Cablevision’s Executive Vice President
of Engineering and Technology. He is a
frequent reader of this group, and does his best to provide us with notice of
what’s going on with the iO and iO HDTV service. For more information on Wilt’s background, experience, and

bio page?
Interactive Optimum (iO) is a digital cable service from
Cablevision. Features include
additional channels over and above those included in Cablevision’s analog cable
offerings, digital music channels, video on demand, and interactive television
channels. For complete information, see
http://www.io.tv.
Generally, iO offers everything in Cablevision’s analog
Family Cable offering, plus about two dozen additional digital channels.style="mso-spacerun: yes"> Depending on your subscription level, it
also offers multiple channels of HBO, Showtime, STARZ!, The Movie Channel
(TMC), Encore, and Cinemax. You may
also subscribe to sports packages such as NBA League Pass and NHL Center Ice,
non-package premium channels (e.g., Playboy), and video-on-demand
services. Channel lineups differ
slightly by location; see http://www.io.tv or
contact your Cablevision office for the current lineup in your area.
Generally, you can add the basic (non-premium) iO channels
to an existing Cablevision subscription for $9.95/month.style="mso-spacerun: yes"> Other packages, which replace your current
service, are available for $64.95/month and $84.95/month (the difference is the
number of premium channels). Set-top
boxes needed to receive iO services are rented for $2.95/month.style="mso-spacerun: yes"> Video-on-demand services incur additional
cost, as do the various sports packages and non-package premium channels.style="mso-spacerun: yes"> Pricing may vary by area, and may change
over time; see http://www.io.tv or contact your
Cablevision office for current pricing information in your area.

No. The analog
channels that you currently receive (generally, the 75-or-so channels in the
“family cable” packages) will continue to arrive in analog format with iO.style="mso-spacerun: yes"> But the additional channels you receive when
you switch to an iO package (or add it to an existing analog package) will
arrive in digital.
You will need a set-top box (not the same as the one you
may currently have to receive analog premium channels) to receive the digital
channels, order video on demand services, or listen to the digital music
channels.
No. Those
televisions that do not have an iO set-top box will continue to receive the
analog channels they receive today (with or without an existing set-top
box). However, any television not
equipped with an iO set-top box will not be able to receive the digital
channels, order video on demand services, or listen to the digital music
channels.
All digital channels are transmitted in, at a minimum,
stereo and Dolby Digital, but they vary in format from Dolby ProLogic all the
way up to Dolby Digital Version 3 (“5.1”).
Some of the analog channels will also broadcast surround sound (Dolby
Digital Version 2.1 or 3) at various times according to their programming.style="mso-spacerun: yes"> Some of the video-on-demand premium channels
and some of the non-premium video-on-demand channels are also broadcast in full
Dolby Digital 5.1 surround; a high percentage of them use Dolby Digital Version
2.0. If you have the SA4200/SA4200HD
set-top box, the Dolby Digital sound is only distributed via the coaxial audio
output; the analog audio outputs are just plain stereo.
With the exception of Bergen and Elizabeth, New Jersey,
four high-definition channels are offered: MSG-HD (channel 146), FSNY-HD (147),
HBO-HD (310), and SHO-HD (330). You
must subscribe to a package that offers the standard definition version of a
channel to receive the high definition version.
HBO-HD and FSNY-HD are not currently available on the
Bergen and Elizabeth systems; this should be rectified sometime in mid-March
2003.
Most live broadcasts of Knicks, Rangers, and Mets home
games are in high definition on MSG-HD.
Most live broadcasts of Islanders and Devils home games are in high
definition on FSNY-HD. Everything else
(including replays of these games) is standard definition (480i) programming
up-converted to 1080i.
Cablevision is currently negotiating retransmission
agreements with the local broadcast stations for carriage of their digital
channels.

You must have an HDTV capable set with component video
inputs, and you must subscribe to one of the iO service offerings.style="mso-spacerun: yes"> To receive HBO-HD and/or SHO-HD, you must
also subscribe to the corresponding standard definition version of the channel
(i.e., you must subscribe to HBO to receive HBO-HD, and you must subscribe to
Showtime to receive SHO-HD).
At the present time (March 2003), there is no additional
cost for the HDTV channels provided you subscribe to a programming package that
offers the standard definition version of each channel.
Outside of New York City, Cablevision is currently using
the Scientific Atlanta SA4200 for regular iO.
In New York City, they are using the SA1850. The primary difference between the two is that the SA4200 speaks
the DOCSIS protocol, and the SA1850 speaks DAVIC.
The Sony DHG-M55CV, which was installed for iO before the
SA4200 (especially on Long Island), is being phased out.style="mso-spacerun: yes"> Customers who have them may continue to use
them, and may even exchange broken ones for working ones, but no new Sonys are
being given out.
The general (but by no means universal) consensus on the
group is that the SA4200 is a better box.
The Scientific Atlanta SA4200HD is the “official” high
definition box. It provides component
video out (as well as lower-quality signals).
The Sony DHG-M55CV is capable of receiving a high
definition signal and sending it out the IEEE
1394 port, however, Cablevision has had problems with this in some areas, and
support is spotty (it’s at the level of “well, as long as it doesn’t break
anything else”).
There are not presently any solutions from Cablevision
that provide DVI/HDMI or “official” href="#_What_is_1394/Firewire?">IEEE 1394 output, although there are plans
to offer them sometime in the future (no specific timetable has been given).

No.style="mso-spacerun: yes"> Over-the-air HDTV signals (the ones that
your tuner is designed to receive) are transmitted in href="#_What_is_8VSB?">8VSBstyle='mso-bookmark:_Toc35002662'>
format. This format is fine for
over-the-air, but takes up too much bandwidth for use in cable systems.style="mso-spacerun: yes"> Cablevision delivers HDTV signals in href="#_What_is_QAM?">QAMstyle='mso-bookmark:_Toc35002662'>
format, which is much more bandwidth-efficient (it offers other advantages as
well). In the future, HDTV sets are
likely to include tuners that can receive HDTV cable signals, but there are
none on the market at present.
You can’t.
Scientific Atlanta sells only to cable companies.
Generally, you can pick up the SA4200 at any Cablevision
walk-in center, take it home, and install it yourself.style="mso-spacerun: yes"> If you’re not comfortable doing this, or if
you don’t have a walk-in center nearby, you can also have Cablevision install
it for you.

Be nice.
No. Although it’s
true that the boxes can coexist in the same house (after all, they both attach to
the same system), Cablevision’s policy is that you can have one kind or the
other, but not both. The reason for
this is that the two boxes work very differently when it comes to ordering
movies and other services, and it creates a substantial mess in the back-end
systems to try to keep both boxes on the same account.style="mso-spacerun: yes"> Not to mention that you lose some of the pause/restart/active
rental features, as well.
Reboot the box.style="mso-spacerun: yes"> This should refresh the programming
