Nice effort but the potion is very specific to the ears.... sorry

So will Gary be able to work his Magic and get us Boomerang in Orlando?

Conjuring up the potion now but having a very hard time finding the ear of the purple spotted horned toad. You don't have any spare do you?

Gary,

LOL!

Nah, I'd actually be happy if E! and Bravo were ever dropped although that is highly unlikely.

I don't want no basketweaving channel either.

I just want the best HD lineup anywhere to keep getting better. Just wait until Chiller HD is officially out.........

Honestly I'm blessed with everything we have obviously because of what I do and I must confess I watch but maybe 4 channels and not much else....I don't have time for TV because I'm either working on my house or chasing down the latest thing for you guys.....and the rest of the time is spent with my dog child. Pretty boring eh? Oh and I do make time every year if possible to chase my adrenaline habit.....this year being the exception but just this year....will make up for it next year.

HDO I think you would even go gaga over the Basketweaving HD channel just so long as we could add channel count Over the years its become very clear you live for the count.

Add my request for the Boomerang channel please. I miss those good old cartoons.

I know this is probably already on its way, but it would be nice to have the rest of the Starz, Encore and Plex channels in HD instead of just a few in the Orlando area. Boomerang from Cartoon Network is also one that many have requested in the past and seems to be available in some Bright House markets, but not in Orlando for some strange reason.

I also noticed that we recently got access to Starz Play, and Encore Play, but why on earth was Plex Play not included in that deal as well?

Please add Plex Play, Showtime Anytime and access to the CNN TV online service

I agree with Boomerang. It seems to be on every BH system except Central Florida. I don't see how that makes sense.

Not Google, not Intel and certainly not Motorola.

So Google Intel & Motorola have no interest in this market segment? And you base this on first hand knowledge or on the fact that they tried already to negotiate and work out a product that content providers would approve?

»Paid YouTube Channels Launching Soon

Its only a matter of time when Youtube/Google will get major content owners to the table.

Netflix has brought its own original content and that does pay dividends, viewers seem to like, so does netflix.

»news.cnet.com/8301-1023_3-575808···content/

Intel and Microsoft dreamed of working out a way to get streaming service to the masses. Microsoft planned on using X-Box as the platform according to online news. (If you really believe in that sort of thing)

Can you see the writing on the wall?

Remember this conversation? As I remember it I pointed out that Intel was clueless about this business and it would never happen...

I direct your attention to »That Ultra-Hyped Intel TV Service? It's On Life Support

Case rested....

Does the "deal" include only Showtime? Or also NBC Sports Live Extra? Thanks

The deal was just hammered out within the past three weeks...please....allow some time...the interfaces and all the detail work needs to be done, tested and ultimately deployed. There is no such thing as cookie cutter with any of this.

Showtime Anytime was in the deal. Not sure when Bright House will add it though.

I thought for sure that we would get the showtime anytime app out of the big negotiation thing with CBS, but no dice. I would get some use out of it.

To expand on jcarrera's post, maybe in the Series Manager, when you go to edit a series, have an option "Suspend Recordings", and it would be nice if that series would have some sort of icon in the Series Manager that gives you a hint that the recordings are currently in suspended mode...?

Copied from »[CFL] Vacation suspend for DVR record settings

Please give us the ability to 'suspend' or put-on-hold the recordings we have programmed in our DVR so that, when we go on vacation, the DVR does not fill up.

Currently, we have to delete the programs and re-enter them when we return--a major PITA.

Only one thing... Please add NBC sports live extra.
I am a BHN subscriber, and BHN is the only TV company available where I live. The only things I ever watch on tv are golf and soccer, especially BPL (British Premier League). Some of the soccer games are played on weekdays (Monday to Friday) when I am not at home. I am very unhappy that I cannot watch these soccer games away from home, because unlike all/most other major networks, BHN does not offer NBC sports live extra to its customers. Why do you not carry NBC sports live extra?

Well again, I can tell you how DirecTV does it, and it isn't all that great (but it is something I guess).

When you plug an eSATA drive in, it actually REPLACES the internal hard drive. So you aren't adding capacity to the internal drive, which kinda sucks.

I would just like the Ports active to expand Recording space......and I just can't image why that would be a obstacle since the SA DVR's......at one time....had this port active and did support an External Drive. The Customer is not in any way changing or altering the BHN Equipment.....they are simply plugging in an External hard drive..... a drive they purchases at their expense.

Push and shove would be against you in this case. While your MIGHT be able to view the files you would be hard pressed to view, manipulate, move or back them up.

Yeah that is a shame. DirecTV is the same way. DirecTV will allow eSATA drives though, but it isn't a backup, just an alternate hard drive. They don't have backup functionality yet which is a shame.

If I said it once, I've said it 1000 times: eSATA ports enabled on all equipped DVR's.

If push comes to shove, one should be able to open the DVR and remove the drive, then put it in a cheap, basic enclosure and access the filesystem via computer. Just reinstall the drive when you're done
