 Change of VOD feeds

Anybody noticed that the normally watchable VOD feeds for their area are now scrambled....I am not able to watch my neighbor fast forward through soft core porno anymore...

Have to find something else for humor now.....

Up until A short time ago tuning through the digital cable bands, one would find the on Demand feeds for their node. They were broadcast in the clear. You could see the pauses and fast forwards they the user was doing. That seems to have changed now with Comcast, as they have now started toe scramble the feeds, so that only the actual user can see it. Probably what should be done, but it was always fun to tune around and see what the neighbors were watching on the VOD.

You must have a "Clear QAM" tuner, then just run the scan function, In NC Indiana the 87-90 digital channels were used for VOD. (89-2, 89-4, etc.), but they are now scrambled so I cannot see them.

Which, may I say, is loads of fun when your mom is visiting and flipping thru channels on your new TV.

It affected all cable operators, but updates were released to fix the problem.
