HD Pixellation Back (Again) in Philly in Verizon FIOS TV http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r18874406 en Sat, 05 Dec 2009 22:54:52 EDT Sat, 05 Dec 2009 22:54:52 EDT Re: HD Pixellation Back (Again) in Philly http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18903398 keyboards : Well, I was watching a show recorded Friday on SCI-FI and I had the weidest experience. About 10 minutes into the show an Allstate commercial came on and the DVR kept jumping between 10 minutes and 55 minutes (with pixellation) and finally settled out at 55 minutes meaning the show was almost over. This was recorded at 10:00 PM (EDT).

Anyone else ever seen something this weird? :huh:]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18903398 Sat, 18 Aug 2007 22:23:05 EDT Re: HD Pixellation Back (Again) in Philly http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18900394 JeepMatt : Just watched a little bit this morning - not seeing any tiling - but was watching Food HD - it was almost like "pulsing" - like it wanted to tile..but then didn't.

That's the only thing i've noticed since Thursday night. Obviously since the group ticket is still open - they aren't comfortable with the results yet.

Who knows?

I think it's funny that we're down to reporting what's NOT wrong.

Apparently our "group ticket" is still open and being worked. They are analyzing all feeds being sent to Philly.

My personal ticket did not have any updates - only that it was linked to the group one. All updates and status changes will be reflected in the group - if any of you decide to call in.

HDNET, HDNET MOVIES, ESPNHD, ESPN2HD plus Life, Hallmark and SCI-FI have all cleared up for now with 100% signal strength. It appears the equipment change in Philly fixed some but not everyone's bad signal.

It looks like all the trouble channels at my end have cleared up (For Now!), the ESPN1 & 2HD are showing 100% strength and no breakup.

Copy of what I sent to Joseph,

Looks like the change may have helped some of the people but not me! As of right now via my slingbox I can see that 120 Life, 826 ESPNHD, 827 ESPN2-HD, 833 HDNET, and 834 HDNETMV at a minimum are still showing pixellation on my Tivo series 3.

The softness could be an after-affect of the hardware swap (if they did it).

If you can, update Joe of this.
Once I'm able to get in front of the HDTV and poke through the HDs to make sure I'm no longer seeing that problem, I'll do one big update of my Direct ticket.

If the trade off is softness on the news channels vs. unwatchable everything else, I'll take the softness.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18893081 Fri, 17 Aug 2007 09:50:06 EDT Re: HD Pixellation Back (Again) in Philly http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18893062 JeepMatt : Knarf-

Sorry to say my signal in Newtown,Pa is still bad as of 9 AM. Same channnels have the same digital breakup as the last few days. Again, the problem seems to only show up on my Tivo 3 tuner and not on my tv with cablecard and I am curious if everyone else is seeing the problem only on their DVR or other cablecard tv's.. I'll check the signal later from work on my Slingbox and chime in if there is a change. I hope the quality of life is improving for the rest of you using the DVR.

Checked things out this morning - and, just like later last night - things looked great.

I'm also waiting to confirm if they did swap out the bad equipment - as everything looked even sharper today. The HD's were quite 'poppin'. :p

Let's all hope they've finally figured this thing out.

Anyone else, please chime in if you're still seeing any issues.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18892747 Fri, 17 Aug 2007 08:41:39 EDT Re: HD Pixellation Back (Again) in Philly http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18890827 noping : Looking decent here as well*, no severe tiling/lines on USA Network and Universal HD like last night. Thought they were waiting until "safe hours" to fiddle with the equipment?

This might sound a little pessimistic, but how long is this "fix" going to last, how long until this problem pops up again? Or, have they really fixed it once and for all?

Yes - CSN-HD looks great tonight - best of the 3 nights this week. Of course Ryan just struck out again with a man on 3rd...but....at least no tiling! :p

I recorded Top Chef, Mythbusters, Criminal Minds, Honey We're Killing the Kids, etc. last night and didn't see any problems with them. If I hadn't checked out this morning the channels that were mentioned by others I wouldn't have thought there was still a problem. But I do watch FoodTV-HD and HGTV-HD alot and they clearly had problems this morning. Sooner or later I would have watched them and seen a problem.

And since I came back around 5:00 pm I haven't seen any more tiling. Go figure.

My experience earlier was that it was very brief, but now I see no problems.

Edit: If I hadn't known they hadn't replaced the part yet, I would have thought I was losing it. ;)]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18889378 Thu, 16 Aug 2007 18:53:56 EDT Re: HD Pixellation Back (Again) in Philly http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18889299 JeepMatt : Surprisingly, I haven't seen any tiling or breakup since i've been home tonight.

Dear God...it keeps getting worse. So now we have no confidence at all this will be fixed tonight.

The issue is with the equipment that supplies the Philly VHO the video feeds. Which makes sense - since I could watch CSN-HD last night with no problems. VZ gets CSN and CSN-HD via a direct fiber feed.

It all depends on what your watching.

I just watched the 1st 3 innings of the Phils game on CSN-HD with no breakup at all.

I turn on Starz HD - I get tiling and dropout within seconds. I see it on Showtime and HBO HD.

I turn on Starz West SD - not seeing any tiling. I flipped through HBO Zone SD earlier - major tiling.

So if we all sat and watched the same thing - we'd all be in the same boat. :p

I know you don't want to hear it from me, but if you're going to post your opinion so am I. Hopefully, folks from Verizon won't read this thread and think everyone is going to sit back and say "Oh Well - Could Be Worse" to unwatchable television they're paying for.

It doesn't matter what "anything else out there" is. I don't give my money for "anything else out there." I give my money to Verizon for a service. Their end of the bargain is to provide that service.

No, Comcast overall picture quality is not as good as Verizon. What does that have to do with this? Absolutely nothing. What good is "crystal clear" picture if what you're seeing are crystal clear tiles across the screen every 45 seconds? What good is "CD Quality Audio" if it drops out every three minutes?

My kids have completely decimated my 40"LCD. The Playstation2 on the bigger screen, and the Nintendo GameCube on the PIP on the 40"LCD.

They even stole the DVR and put it in their room.

All this for being at work all day. My wife had no idea what they were doing because she was out doing some yard work (that the kids should have been doing themselves).

I will be putting everything back together this evening so I can see how bad the PQ is. When I confirm it, I'll add to the group ticket.

Last night, CSN seemed immune to the tiling. For some reason, I think the equipment issues only affect the channels they don't obtain locally.

As far as Comcast - yes, even in Wilmington, their PQ is terrible. Their HD offerings look extremely cloudy.

I really just hope they've nailed this and make the change tonight. If not - we're stuck with this until the following evening.

Too many times in too few months...
Well, I'm in the Philly area and have been affected by some of the pixelation problems that have occurred. I just came back from my sister-in-law's place and we were watching some recorded Dirty Jobs from the SD Discovery channel. It had what I would call a fair amount of pixelization and audio drop-outs. I remarked about how awful it was and they said it's always like that and that's what it's like with a digital feed. They didn't see it as a big deal. They've always had Comcast. If it went on for a couple more weeks maybe they would call it in. Those of us here at Fios on Dslreports would have been reporting it immediately. They said it happens all the time on various channels ... no big deal. And I sure wouldn't want to give up the PQ that I get with Fios. My nephew said that our SD looked like their HD and that our HD was incredible. (And I didn't even prompt him. :))

Also, Comcast in this area at least (Philly suburbs) is missing quite a few HD channels – FoodTV, HGTV, HDnet, NFLNet is extra cost, etc. So not to push one over the other but there are trade-offs all around.

My guess (as has also been suggested to me) is that there is a piece of equipment that keeps failing (and has been since May) that VZ won't replace, because it is too expensive, however they keep trying to band-aid it instead.

PS - Thanks for those that just opened threads in the Direct forum. ;)

Verizon fed me that one last week, my phone, TV, and Internet were all out.
The power light on the BBU was on, all the lights on the ONT were on, my wife had the washer running, and the Central Air was chill'in nicely. My power was on.

The dumba$$ FSC rep cold not be convinced that I was not experiencing a power outage, it had to be a power outage, no way it could be a Verizon problem.

The guy actually tells me that the Diagnostics on the ONT indicate a power outage.

I must commend them for at least trying to blame others, when it's clearly their fault.

If theres an effin Power Outage, how are you reading the ONT diagnostics, I asked????

Oh, well maybe it's a power outage at the CO then. OK, the CO is out, again, HOW ARE YOU READING THE ONT DIAGNOSTICS??? DUH :uhh:

IF you are familiar with the West Chester CO,

North East of the West Chester U campus, on High Street, across from the Burger King @ Price Street,
you would know that that CO is sitting on enough Battery and Diesel Generators to power all of West Chester.

I doubt they have had a power outage there in decades, the building is built as a Fallout Shelter.

"It's a problem with your electrical wiring and/or PECO," remember? :o

Noticed some tiling and other issues on some SD channels late this afternoon, don't know if anyone else has experienced that...
That's what you get when you don't pay your water bill on time.
I recently had some tiling problems in my shower, a little grout and some silicone caulk fixed it up real quick :p

Noping, anyway, your talking to JeepMatt, he's in DE.

It's Delmarva Power not PECO.

Are you guys seeing it anywhere else? I just saw it on HDNet as well.

They'll swap the offending board with the one that does NOT have the Picture Quality problems for the rest of the week, and we can have a nice week of excellent TV to watch for a change.
