Streaming FIOS TV Music Channels
I would like feedback and a response from a VERIZON REP.
Would like to see a service where we could stream the Verizon FIOS music channels to a computer or a wireless speaker to listen to the music throughout the house.
I use the musc channels all the time and would like to have it streamed through out my home.
Couple of comments:
1) This is a help forum. Requests for new services should go here: http://forums.verizon.com/t5/Share-Your-Ideas-with-Verizon/idb-p/ideas
2) That being said, you can take the audio output of the STB and connect as input to any device that can then stream.

Music channels in Zone 2?
Hey all - hopefully someone here can help me out. I've also posted a similar question on avsforum. Here goes. My Fios DVR is connected to an Onkyo TX-SR 605 via HDMI. This receiver offers "Zone 2" functionality that allows me to listen to audio on my outdoor speakers - and I can listen to a different source than what is playing in Zone 1 (my family room). The catch is that only sources connected to the receiver via analog will play in Zone 2. In addition to the HDMI connection, I have also connected the Fios DVR to the receiver via analog audio cables. I am unable to get sound to come out of the outdoor speakers when selecting the input source that I have the cable box connected to the receiver (cbl/sat).
Does anyone know what i'm doing wrong, or is there no way that I can listen to my Fios music channels outside under this setup?Should work if you hooked up the red and white RCA jacks on the BACK of the STB to your receiver. All audio and video outputs are always on (I have mine going to a VCR and it works the same time my TOSLINK does to my AVR and the HDMI to the TV. The only thing you might try is playing with the fixed / variable and vloume audio settings in the onscreen menu from the DVR (MENU -> SETTINGS -> AUDIO -> etc.).

Music Channels via Computer?
I can get lots of FIOS music channels on my TV. However, I want to listen to them in another room and not have to turn my TV on. Is there a way to get them on my computer directly via Internet? If that's not possible, it seems I should be able to run a wire from a sound-out socket on the back of my Motorola QIP 6416-2 set-top DVR and use that as the source of the music. Which outlet should I use?
I am not aware of the ability to get the channels via the internet.
For audio, simply connecting the audio out (red/white on the bottom row of outputs on the back) to an audio input of a stereo or other system would do the trick. -
How can I stream pictures and music to an Sony TV?
It seems there is no app in the store for streaming pictures ans music to a sony TV from the iMac (LION OS).
I was using a foreign program called EyeConnect or alternatively PS3 Media Server 1.50.0 but it is not satisfactorily.
Does anybody know an apple possibility (...app) or similar for proper connection to the sony TV by WiFi?
Thanks in advance.Use this to get the items in your iTunes library and then sync to the other device

Montgomery County Maryland and working fine here.
Try to reset your STB or DVR by unpluging it for a couple minutes, and then pluging it back in. Sometimes that may help. But it may be worrking for you now anyway? -
Can stream movies and music, but have to sync photos?
I can stream movies and music without taking up space on the AppleTV. I can't seem to figure out how to stream my photo library instead of sync it. Is that possible? Or must I sync the photo library to be able to browse it the AppleTV?
a brody,
Per knowledge base article http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305139, photos must be synced and cannot be streamed.

X1 Music channel delay and video function issue.
For the longest time we have a delay when switching from a video channel to a music channel. 1 time out of 10 the music plays instantly. The other 9 times we have to wait 30 seconds to 7 mins for the music actually play. Sometimes the X1 resests itself. Even with no one using the net or voice, so it's no a bandwith issue. I've reset the box numerous times. Calling Comcast they say swith the box out. I'd do that but they both have saved programs. So that can be a last resort I guess. For the video, here lately when when we fwd or rwd the video it does not respond for a few seconds. Example: You hit rwd the video to where you want it then hit play. It Keeps on rewinding for a few seconds and when it does stop and play, your way past where you wanted to be. I changed the batteries in the remote, no help. No need to reset the X1 because it Resets self, 2-4 times a week when trying to listen to music anyways. X1 really does suck though, from day one. I prefer the old hd box...
Sounds like you have some kind of connection issue with the X1 system. I would call Comcast and schedule a tech visit.

I can not get an audio stream from any TV channel on ipad
I can not get an audio stream from any TV channel on my ipad ,please help me fix this problem
Muneer-
What App are you using to get the audio stream? Safari should work unless Flash is involved.
I have used the free NPR App to listen to radio stations, but I don't know if it works with TV stations.

I have been streaming videos and music from my phone and iPad. I just got a new MacBookPro and when I try to stream from it, I get the mirror image, but no sound. ????

Streaming photos and music at the same time
can someone explain to me how to stream my music and photos on my Apple TV at the same time (ie photo slideshow with music playing) I know you can do this if you sync everything but my music is 100Gb and doesn't fit on my apple tv or I would like to stream my music and sync my photos if possible?
Same Question here. I have over 50gb of Photos so syncing is out for me. I'm okay with streaming all content, music , videos and photos but I want to hear my tunes while watching the photos.

Signed up for two years two months ago and now they are taking away my Music Channels!!
I signed up for the triple play back in December for two years, HD ultimate. I received an E-mail yesterday that all of my Music channels 1800 to 1845 will be gone unless I pay another $35 a month!!
I called up and Verizon says our provider is changing their plan. I indicated I signed a two year contract with Verison and I can care less about their provider isssues.
So what are my options? Anybody else dealing with this **bleep**?
ThanksI wouldn't assume because you or others may not have receive notice as an indication that this isn't possible. For example, I have yet to receive any notice from Verizon about the removal of the Bridge TV & Funimation channels like many other customers. Verizon is dropping the ball with exisiting customers and their own customer service reps based on conversations I had with them. I'm not sure if it is conscious tatic or effort of not informing exisiting customers of programming changes. But it seems to be an ongoing issue by just the posts you see on this forum.

DCT-700 music channels...
The music channels are coming us having temporary technical difficulties on my DCT-700 stb. It has been like this for a long time now. When are these "temporary" issues going to be resolved or are they not going to be?
Christian, you are giving out wrong information. Business customers need to subscribe separately. All the music channels are in the basic Prime package for all residential customers.

LG blu ray players to stream FIOS channels wireless
I am looking to try using a wireless LG blu ray player to stream some channels from FIOS instead of having to purchase additional cable boxes for some bedroom TVs. I can not find the technical requirements I need in a device to get this to work. Is FIOS DLNA compatible? Has anyone found a wireless blu ray player that has had experience with streaming channels from Verizon as is advertised on their website?

The first link contains support information for LG streaming devices. At the bottom of the page it shows the two currently supported Blu Ray players. You would need to do your own evaluations in regards to the wireles. But right now I have for example, Redbox Instant Beta loaded in my Iphone and it streams Via 3G or Wifi.
The Redbox Beta list of players is not final, as the service is being tested.
Not the same as a BD player, but my X box is streaming those 75 channels with an ethernet cable, and I have not tried it with wireless.
Samsung information is also available from Verizon.
I hope this information is helpful. They may not show it but here are Verizon's listed devices that can download the app from the app stores.

Streaming Films and music from iTunes to apple tv stops after a while
I have two apple TVs second gen and when I have been streaming music or movies to one of them I find that the films or music play for about 10 minutes or so but then stop. After that nothing can connect to my wireless network including phones, laptop, iPad or apple tv.
I have tried streaming a movie from my iPad using file browser app but suffer the same problem. I have only been able to rectify this by resetting the apple tv. I have also had many conversations with my servic provider but the problem seems to be only when using apple tv as I can stream to my laptop or phone perfectly fine. Can anyone please help me as I have spent lots of time converting my DVD collection to mp4v only to not be able to watch a full film!!
I have been told there is an issue between apple tv and iTunes. Thanks in any advance.As an update, I can confirm I watched a film last night on my apple tv2 and it played all the way through without a hick up. I changed a couple of things so can't be sure what worked but what I did was:
1 changed the channel by broadband comes in on to improve signal (that said I dont know if the one I'm using is right).
2 reset my external WD my book live to re-sync with the router
3 turned off the option allowing my mac book pro to go to sleep and turn the internal HDD to sleep when possible in the power saving menu.
4 shouted at it and made degrading remarks about the efficiency of apple products compared to the floor less performance (although less glamourous look) of my WD tv live box which works without hick up btw. Although cannot play iTunes downloaded files...who to blame.
And it seemed to work. For now I am happier than I was but still not convinced it will serve me as well as I would like but here's to the here and now...watch this space. -
Multiple devices streaming the same music on Family Plan
If I get the family plan for 2 devices, will we be able to listen to the same songs at the same time? I want to be able to stream music on multiple devices yet have the option to listen privately. Will the family plan offer this?
It will store multiplle devices.
