.Tv Channels Being Dropped?

It looks like verizon may be getting rid of those .tv channels that no one likes. The .tv channels are missing their logos and from my experience with other channels that i know of that have been dropped in the past that is never a good sign for a channel if they are trying to remain on the fios guide. It is too much of a coincidence that entertainment studios.tv channel 558, cars.tv channel 599, pets.tv channel 633, recipe.tv channel 676, and comedy.tv channel 695 are all missing their logos. Channel 1002 espn 3d hd is also missing its logo and as everyone knows espn announced that the channel was going to be dropped real soon because the ratings simply did not justify the cost of the channel. The .tv channels have been there since 2009 and if they are about to be dropped in september then that makes sense since tv providers usually try to get their act together by then and start to add or drop channels that their customers want or would like removed. I was told two more were on the way but perhaps verizon finally woke up and realized that no one wanted the channels and that the addition of two more would send the wrong message that they do not care about what their customers want. We will find out real soon if these channels are about to be dropped and if so then there will be no more byron allen owned channels on the fios guide. His channels will exist only on the at&t guide. Let's see if anyone starts a campaign to try to keep the channels on the verizon guide like they have with some other channels that have been dropped. I seriously doubt they will. This could mean there may be more hd channels on the way that people had not anticpated because it will free up a lot more space on the guide. Verizon needs to step up big time in this area because the competition like comcast and directv are adding more hd channels every month. Comcast just released a six tuner dvr called x1 and they are going to be releasing a new hd guide while verizon still has a 2 tuner dvr.

To the OP, your conclusion about the .tv channels going away because there are missing logos is wishful thinking.   In VHO3 there have missing logos on a number of channels (mostly local, but some national) since IMG 1.9.4 rolled out in the area.  I reported it to the development team but nothing has been corrected, and the channels remain.  It's been three months since the logos disappeared.
Sorry to throw water on your hope, but I don't think your prediction will happen, in my opinion.

    iTunes 11 seems to shuffle just fine for me.
    You can restore much of the look & feel of the previous version with these shortcuts:
    Ctrl-B to turn on the menu bar.
    Ctrl-S to turn on the sidebar (your device should be listed here as before).
    Ctrl-/ to turn on the status bar.
    Click the magnifying glass top right and untick Search Entire Library to restore the old search behaviour.
    If you want to roll back to iTunes 10.7 first download a copy of the 32 bit installer or 64 bit installer as appropriate, uninstall iTunes and suppporting software, i.e. Apple Application Support & Apple Mobile Device Support. Reboot. Restore the pre-upgrade version of your library database as per the diagram below, then install iTunes 10.7.

  • The background on my ipad is pink and constantly moving after being dropped

    the background on my ipad is pink and constantly moving after being dropped.  Any suggestions?

    Hello mickd1505c,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    It's appears as though you need to seek hardware service for your iPad since this occurred after you dropped it.

  • My iphone 4S made a humming sound then dropped my call..now my calls last a few second before being dropped.

    My iphone 4S made a humming sound then dropped my call..now my calls last a few second before being dropped. What is the reason?

    Thank you very much guys.  Looking back on how I ended up in this situation in the first place,  I started by google searching "apple support",  clearly I was mistaken and ended up calling one of the google adverts instead of real apple support.  My wholehearted apology goes out to apple whom obviously did not answer my phone call.
    I belive that this is the advertised number that I called and the misleading ad that comes up when I google search apple support:
    Call For Apple Support1 (866) 691 7793
    apple.support.mytechhelp.com/
    Get Professional Tech Support. Call Now.
    Boy am I red in the face.  These people are masquerading as genuine apple support people when clearly they are not.  I think tonight I will call them back and simply scream vulgarities at them for as long as they stay on the line.
    A good lesson has been learned by me and hopefully anyone reading this.
    Get your support phone number from the apple website and not a google search. 
    Man do I feel dumb,  although I would feel a lot dumber if I had bought into the pile of garbage these people were trying to feed me.
    Apple I hope you litigate a cease and desist order on these people because they pretend to be the real deal.  They did not even try to correct me when I called them apple support, nor did they properly identify the company that they are truly representing.

  • Multicast Channels Sound Drop Outs / Picture Pixel...

    Had this issue for months now and its totally unique to broadband channels.  Its been a problem since leaving sky and joining BT in august.  
    Had around 5 engineers out who all say "Im the wrong type of engineer for this job, all i can do is check your broadband"
    Sound just randomly drops out and picture quality on ondemand such as kids is getting noticeably worse.
    Im on BT Infinity and get 79Mb DL which im told has no errors whenever an engineer checks however the guys on the phone tell me they can see my line is losing packets.  line correction has been applied and my speed was halved to 35Mb! This did NOT fix the problem.
    Watching channel 4 HD at the mo and if im being honest its like the kids have the remote and keep pushing Mute.  
    Had a REIN test and nothing is interfereing 
    Im at the end of my tether
    Oh and Both Box AND router have been swapped out
    Its a Black BT Vision Box and BT Home Hub 4
    Anyone had this issue and got it fixed?

    I wonder if the issue might lie with the HH4. Do you have an HH3 to hand or could you borrow one to try?
    I know that is not very helpful. The only other thing might be to swap to a YouView box.
    I assume you have tried different ports in the HH4?

  • Wireless 2.4ghz channel keeps dropping out on HH5

    As per title really. Recently the HH5 has started losing the 2.4ghz connection. 5 GHz still working fine. Have reset the 2.4ghz connection and all is well for a while, but then drops out some time later. Really irritating now as my PC only uses 2.4 band and I keep being thrown off my office VPN...
    Please help...

    You can get a 5GHz dongle, wireless-ac preferably for the PC.

  • Label is getting invisible in 2D plot when 2 or more channels are dropped in to VIEW

    Hi
    I am trying to plot two channels on the same graph.When I am dropping the first channel y axis is displaying the unit but when I drop the second it disappears.When I transfer to report also it is not coming.Do any body experienced this problem.how to solve it
    Certified LabVIEW Associate Developer

    Hello mjaugustin,
    This is expected behavior if you only have one Y-Axis in VIEW.
    Have you tried selecting "n Y-Axes" in the settings for the graph? That gives you the result you would expect. With only one Y-axis, we cannot determine what unit you would prefer to see on the axis ...
    Let me know if that helps,

  • Fix for 5 GHz wide channel ON drop outs on AEBS!!

    change the channel from automatic (36) to 161... haven't tried others.
    open the airPort Utility app
    click on the base station
    got to manual set up > wireless tab
    radio mode: 802.11n (5GHz)
    IMPORTANT! Channel: press Option while Clicking on the Channel combo box and choose 161... found out from the instruction manual that this option + click gives extra options... also extra options for radio mode as well... non- n options
    wireless options: wide channels ON
    press update
    may have to restart you Apple TV... press and hold "menu" and "-"/down button... wait a bit and from the menu press "restart"
    and no more dropout with 5GHz wide channels on!!!

    Ok - just to make sure Apple hears about every one of us having the problem. I never had any issues with my wireless connection prior to the 2.01 upgrade but now streaming from my Mac to the AppleTV using the Airtunes function doesn't work for more than 5-10min before the network connection is dropped.
    Configuration:
    - AEBS running a N only 5GHz network and using Wide Channels - latest software & firmware
    - AppleTV with 2.01 software
    - iMac used for streaming
    I'm not planning to switch 2.4Ghz or stop using wide channels (I already have a 2.4Ghz G network thank you )- so please Apple we need a patch!
    Kind regards

  • Looking for trouble shooting help -Connections being dropped from app.

    I need a little help in hunting down the source of a problem. We have Oracle 10gR2 (10.2.0.1) running on Solaris 10. The web application is based on WEBLOGIC on another server also running Solaris 10 with a new firewall in between. When started, the application will get 176 connections to the database. Over time, still working on how long, the connections get dropped. The profile they app is connecting to is for unlimited connections and connection time. I do not have an setting to disconnect after idle for x minutes. Even the listener spawned processes die. Other applications from other machines also have problems if idle for a period of time, SQLDeveloper, SQLPlus, TOAD, SQLNAVIGATOR.
    We are trying to hunt down the source of the problem but are at a loss. I have checked and verified that the oracle instance does not have a parameter set to kill idle connections for the users the apps are connecting as. The sys admin says there are no unix parameters he knows about on either solaris box that is killing connections and that the firewall settings should not be killing them.
    A duplicate environment running all the same versions of software work fine, the only differences between the two is the box and operating system, Sun V120 w/Solaris 8 vs. Sun V40Z w/Solaris 10.
    This system goes live in two weeks so we are trying to get this figured out soon. Any hints on where to look or has any one else had similar problems?
    thanks

  • TS3274 What to do after being dropped?  Now screen is black and gray.

    What do I do if I dropped an Ipad and now it has a black/gray screen and won't do anything?

    Sorry, but dropping is accidental damage, and it's not covered by your warranty. You can take it to the apple store and see wha they can do or see about an 'out of warranty replacement', read pay a reduced fee to swap out your broken one for a refurbished replacement.

  • Styles being dropped on network shared folder files in Dreamweaver CS5.5

    Hello, apoligies if this has already been solved but I could not find anything similar. Recently we have upgraded our staff from Dreamweaver CS4 to CS5.5 and are having some issues with pages dropping the stylesheets which are linked relatively. The relative files are located on a shared network drive which is mapped in Windows 7 as a drive (e.g. My Computer shows the drive as R:).
    In Dreamweaver design view up the top it reads:
    Address: file:///R|/acrrm/tinnitus/course_content/001.html
    and there is a yellow bar up the top which reads:
    'common_styles.css' is a remote file and cannot be edited.
    We never had this issue before so I was wondering if it was a new limitation of CS5.5 or if there was something I should look out for in the site definition.
    Interestingly enough I was able to fix this on one machine by randomly toggling the live code/view buttons, havent had any luck doing that to other machines though.
    Any help would be much appreciated.
    Here are the specs:
    O.S: Windows 7
    Version: Dreamweaver CS5.5
    Site Definition: Network shared drive

    Interestingly enough I was able to fix this on one machine by randomly toggling the live code/view buttons, havent had any luck doing that to other machines though.
    I would have to say that this operation could not possibly fix anything.  I suspect that simply waiting the same amount of time as this operation required would have returned the same result, and it sounds like there is some latency in your network.
    Your site is entirely contained on a network shared drive, right?  Or is it that only SOME files are on the network shared drive (R:)?  Also, where is it you are seeing this?
    Address: file:///R|/acrrm/tinnitus/course_content/001.html

  • French accented characters in a barcode are being dropped when scanned by a handheld scanner

    We have an issue when our pdf417 barcodes contain french accented characters é,à,è, etc and are scanned by a handheld scanner.  As a result Montréal is decoded as Montral (the é is dropped).  We are using the Datalogic PowerScan 7000 and a Motorola Symbol DS6608 handheld scanners.  We currently have a ticket open with Datalogic.
    The problem does not exist when the barcode is decoded by LC Barocded Forms.Decode.
    Talking to someone, they indicated that this is pretty common with handhelds.  However, I did find this old post from lee sutton  http://forums.adobe.com/thread/332743 where he uses a keyboard wedge?
    Has anyone had to deal with a similar issue (non-english chars) via handheld?
    Can anyone recommend a handheld that does read non-eng characters without the wedge?
    Is there something in the encoding from Designer that i can do?

    When you're decoding with the hand-held scanner, you'll need to ensure that the decoder itself supports the scanning of extended characters AND if it's a keyboard-wedge scanner, ensure that your keyboard is in French or Canadian-French mode or the simulated typing won't happen.

  • Since installing Airport Express wireless connection to other devices keeps being dropped

    Our home network consists of my MacBook Pro 15", my wife's quite old Compaq notebook, an Apple TV, and recently, an Airport Express.
    The router is one that was provided by our ISP, Alice/O2 in Germany. I think it is made by Siemens but its model name is Alice IAD 4421 WLAN (in case anyone in Germany is reading this.)
    My MacBook connects to the WiFi broadcast perfectly every time, as did my wife's Windows laptop until recently. Between our two machines there was a total of one single occasion where the signal dropped, and a restart of the router got it back up and runnning.
    The Apple TV was set up without any problems at all, the wireless connection dropped out once over the space of 6 weeks.
    About 5 days ago, I bought and installed an Airport Express which has so far served the sole function of providing Airplay to 2.0 speakers in the kitchen, so I just selected 'join network' when setting it up in Airport Utility.
    Since it was installed, video playing over Airplay to the Apple TV keeps stopping, with the message 'Apple TV is not connected to the internet', the AE itself suffers from dropouts in audio, (the LED has always stayed solid green) and my wifes notebook can only join the network after she has restarted it.
    A restart of the router helps for about an hour, but the problems keep recurring.
    Does anyone have any idea of any changes I can make to the AE settings, as it seems to be the cause of the dodgy connections to the other devices?

    Hello mathias1711. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    Let's double-check your AirPort Express Base Station's (AX) settings for streaming iTunes ...
    Perform a "factory default" reset of the AX
    o (ref: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=108044)
    To set up AirTunes on the AX, either connect to the AX's wireless network or temporarily connect your computer directly (using an Ethernet cable) to the Ethernet port of the AX, and then, use the AirPort Admin Utility to check these settings:
    AirPort tab
    o Base Station Name: <whatever you wish or use the default>
    o Wireless Mode: Join an Existing Wireless Network (Wireless Client)
    o Wireless Network: <select the existing wireless network>
    Music tab
    o Enable AirTunes on this base station (checked)
    o Enable AirTunes over the Ethernet port (optional)
    o iTunes Speaker Name: <whatever you wish>
    o iTunes Speaker Password (optional)
    In iTunes:
    iTunes > Preferences... > Advanced > General
    o Look for remote speakers connected with AirTunes (checked)

  • Data being dropped after joining Fiscal Time with Fact Table

    Hi,
    In my RPD, i have jolined the Fiscal Calendar with my fact tables : Fiscal Day is joined to Create Time column in the fact table.
    Fiscal Day Data is : 6/6/2006 12:00:00
    Creare Time Data is : 6/6/2006 11:45:49
    6/6/2006 11:56:50
    When i pull the fiscal day column with the other columns fromthe fact table in the report, i only see a subset of my data. I beleive this is due to the timestamp and it is causing to drop records.
    Is there anyway, i can join this and not drop records due to the timestamp.
    ANy suggestions will be appreciated.
    Thanks

    I assume that fiscal day table is at the day level. I would suggest that you store the date in an integer format (for example 20060606 'YYYYMMDD') similarly you may store the creation_date_key in fact table which is also in the same format, then do a direct join. This will be provide good performance for your reporting since you are joining integers and not date or char formats.
    If you want time of creation date also, you might want to store it in a seperate column in say HHMMSS format, this when joined with time dimension will allow you hierarchical reporting for time too.

Maybe you are looking for
