Who doesn’t like to save their favorite shows for viewing later? The problem of course, is running out of room! Keyboards was on hand this week with some excellent feedback on determining whether you can expand your DVR with an eSATA drive.

Kudos go out this week to Smith6612 for his detailed and informative posts that cover a range of Verizon’s products and services, including this response on getting internet service at the user’s address.

Hi prisaz
Unfortunately, a user's IP is considered personal information.  If they post a copy/paste, we are able to edit it out. However, when it's in an image, we have to remove the entire thing.  But when we message the user, we ask them to obscure their IP and to re-post the image.
Good reason, makes sense. But couldn't you edit the image (with an image editor) and cover up the IP address? I do that kind of thing all the time with images I post here to protect my privacy (although as you know I occasionally do screw that up ). Would save the confusion and need for the user to repost the image.

    Thread of the Week:
    Our Thread of the Week discusses what to do if your TV settings keep changing- seemingly by themself! In this instance, DarkDune's FiOS TV keeps switching back to 720p after it's set at 1080i and he can't figure out why. Thanks to everyone who helped solve this issue- including the OP who built upon all the advice given and figured this out! 
    Post of the Week:
    Prisaz wrote our Post of the Week in this thread asking how to watch movies from a PC on the TV. Huge thanks to Prisaz for helping out and for linking to all the great information he learned while attended CES as a guest of Verizon.
    Member of the Week:
    Charliebarrett is our Member of the Week with this great post detailing how to make sure the YouTube widget on FiOS TV is working properly. Thanks Charlie for the great instructions!

    What is the update number causing this issue?
    Sounds very similar to this issue:
    http://blogs.vmware.com/workstation/2014/10/workstation-10-issue-recent-microsoft-windows-8-1-update.html
    Are you running the most recent version of VMware Workstation 10?
    For more support for VMware products, a better place is the VMware forums, as this forum is for Windows 8.x Hyper-V. (

    I am honored to be on the list, however I wish it wasn't for the reason it was.
    Unmentioned in your post is the outpouring of support for the Funimation channel.  This channels cancellation, due to what is quickly turning out to be a less than factual reason of 'low viewership' from Verizon, has mobilized many of your customers.  In fact, I'm sure that most of the people in your list this week were kudo'ed for posts in 1 of 2 threads:
    Funimation Canceled!
    Save Funimation Petition
    If we are to look at the pure numbers, at the time of this writing those 2 threads combined for a total of nearly 950 kudos and 3800+ views.  Even more telling:  198 of the 200 most kudo'ed posts are people SUPPORTING Funimation Channel and against Verizon's decision to cancel the channel.  (http://forums.verizon.com/t5/kudos/leaderboardpage/board-id/FiOS_TV_Entertainment/timerange/one_mont...
    IMHO (and no offense to Justin and his very helpful document) either of these 2 would have made a much more appropriate 'Thread of the week'.

    Patrick,
    Thanks my session verify function was causing the problem and I have removed it temporarily from my authentication scheme.
    I am using the "check_timeout" function that was developed a number of years ago as part of a "How To" section in the old HTMLdb days. I knew there was an issue with this routine as the newer versions of the browsers handle cookies differently and I was going to redevelop it at some point. Do you know which part of the function causes the issue?
    Many Thanks,
    Jon
    FUNCTION check_timeout
    RETURN BOOLEAN
    AS
    l_session_expire VARCHAR2(256) := NULL;
    l_cookie_exists BOOLEAN := TRUE;
    BEGIN
    IF htmldb_custom_auth.get_user IS NULL THEN
    RETURN TRUE;
    END IF;
    BEGIN
    l_session_expire := owa_cookie.get('HTMLDB_IDLE_SESSION').vals(1);
    EXCEPTION WHEN NO_DATA_FOUND THEN
    l_cookie_exists := FALSE; -- no cookie set, assume first page visit after login

    Great teamwork troubleshooting this Verizon Modem Router issue. 
    Post of the Week: 
    Thank you, jtktlw, for detailing such thorugh step-by-step instructions on connecting your Xbox Live with the Actiontek GT704-WGB wireless router. 
    Most Helpful Member: 
    This would have to go out to Justin this week.  A member wanted help with "Setting up the IMG Guide to just show channels that they actually get" We were reminded at how helpful it is sometimes to point each other back to content/solutions already previously posted. Justin had written a user guide on that very topic previously with "Exploiting TV Favorites."
    Most Noteworthy Quote: 
    "In contrast to those users who claim they aren't being given the speeds they were advertised, FiOS customers in our forums indicate they're actually getting more than they paid for."  Great observation, Hubrisnxs!

    Thread of The Week:
    If you're a parent of young kids, you can't help but know that Verizon FiOS has a new channel. That's right, Disney Jr. has arrived! If you're looking the channel, check out this thread for more info.
    Post of the Week:
    Huge thanks to Somegirl- one of our newest Community Leaders- for helping a new Verizon customer set up her Verizon email. It's always tricky figuring out a new system, but Somegirl's answer (with pictures!) got the job done.
    Member of the Week:
    Can I tell you all a little secret? I'm not a technical person- at all. My eyes glaze over the minute acronyms and tech talk are thrown around. That is why my favorite threads on the boards are those that give great answers in a clear, concise way. Hubrisnxs does just that here in a great thread about what to do when you think you're having a service outage.

    First thanks fo the kind words Heather and Armond. I really never thougt I would rate "MVP" status, after losing my job in IT support a few years back I have participated in a few forums but this one seems the most civil and informative. I have learned a lot over the years posting questions and reading real experts' posts (there are too many to mention) I am really happy to give back to this awesome community.
    If a forum member gives an answer you like, please give them the Kudos they deserve. If a member gives you the answer to your question, mark the answer as Accepted Solution so others can see the solution to the problem. Thanks !!!

  • MVP List #40 (June 2 - June 8, 2012)

    The Verizon Community Forums Most Valuable Posting List is where we recognize great work and words happening every day right here on our community. We know the success as a community is based on the continual and lively contributions of our valued members. Each member provides special and unique contributions and this is the place we try to highlight members that have stood out during the previous week.
    Thread of The Week:
    One of the trickiest- and most interesting- things about posting a question on the boards is that your original question can very easily morph into another question altogether. This is what happened within this week's Thread of the Week. A simple question asking if you can swap out a modem/router combo for a modem only has led to some great discussions on how best to use your PS3.
    Post of the Week:
    Ever wonder what happens when disputed charges from third party billing are taken off your phone bill? Minded knows- and he shares with you here.
    Member of the Week:

    I am honored to be on the list, however I wish it wasn't for the reason it was.
    Unmentioned in your post is the outpouring of support for the Funimation channel.  This channels cancellation, due to what is quickly turning out to be a less than factual reason of 'low viewership' from Verizon, has mobilized many of your customers.  In fact, I'm sure that most of the people in your list this week were kudo'ed for posts in 1 of 2 threads:
    Funimation Canceled!
    Save Funimation Petition
    If we are to look at the pure numbers, at the time of this writing those 2 threads combined for a total of nearly 950 kudos and 3800+ views.  Even more telling:  198 of the 200 most kudo'ed posts are people SUPPORTING Funimation Channel and against Verizon's decision to cancel the channel.  (http://forums.verizon.com/t5/kudos/leaderboardpage/board-id/FiOS_TV_Entertainment/timerange/one_mont...
    IMHO (and no offense to Justin and his very helpful document) either of these 2 would have made a much more appropriate 'Thread of the week'.

    Thread of The Week:
    What do you do when the router is in the basement, your wireless just isn’t up to speed, and you need to decide between a router vs. bridge vs. switch? You come to the forum, where our super users are glad to help!
    Post of The Week:
    Members who are still trying to delete files that had been uploaded to their personal Verizon websites via FTP got a boost from somegirl this week when she directed their attention back to a previous post on contacting Verizon techs and steering them through the process. Kudos, somegirl!
    Member of The Week:
    Roadking10453 was a great team player this week, catching a user’s question in the end zone and carrying it through with a timely explanation of just what the FiOS back-up battery is for. 
    Quote of the Week:
    Beyond that ... I find a little parental authority can be highly effective ... and when they don't listen, you simply remove the STB altogether from their room and they don't get TV at all.  Doesn't make for a popular parent ... but that's why it's called parenting. – lasagna

    Can't really take credit for the post; it was from  britechguy's post here.
    If a forum member gives an answer you like, give them the Kudos they deserve. If a member gives you the answer to your question, mark the answer as Accepted Solution so others can see the solution to the problem.

    Thread of The Week:
    Our thread of the week is both timely and informative as it discusses the ins and outs of the FiOS back-up battery. The thread covers everything from what to do when your power goes out, how to extend your battery life and how to stop the beeping. Many, many thanks to all who chimed in.
    Post of the Week:
    Want to test your FiOS connection with various speed tests to see how fast your speed really is? Smith6612 can help you out there with a list of speed tests to try. Thanks, Smith6612!

    I would have to agree with this. Battery Operation and the importance of the Phone in the devastation that hit the East, was most important.
