Hmm Ed does mine do all this stuff? If so I wanna learn all about it. Some of the channels here are awful can't watch them they are either too dark or all red where the rest of the channels are great. The local server here provides the service by purchasing time from another company that provides from satellite it's poor to say the least. Half the time we get snow on most the stations and others are hard to see. For all I know the time shifting is being caused by the server here. Any comments on this possibility? What do you mean by unshielded cable Louis?
