TWC INHD problems

[cglaser]

Has anyone else with TWC Milwaukee been having sound and pixilation issues with INHD?

Both INHD channels have been dropping the sound and producing bursts of pixilazation for me the past few days.  It will drop the sound for about 1/2 second 4 -5 times a minute I get about the same rate for chuncks of pixilazation.  My other HD channels are fine.

Just kinda wondering if anyone else is seeing this.

I have not.  Is this a new service for you?  If so, you may wish to check cabling, connectors, etc.

iN HD is great - lot of it comes in 2.0 DD but some 5.1 DD without any problems...check your cables and feed.

 I had problems once with the 6 connections in my house and the TWC guy came by and installed a amplifier for free and then I had good signal everywhere. Sometimes its what you don't check.

But not IN HD, not so far.

Well whaddya know,  I switched to a different coaxil cable and now everything is good.

Wierd how a cable could cause only a few channels to appear screwy while the all the other channels are fine.

Ah well.  Anyway, thanks all.

I had the exact same problems but once the house was rewired all the channels came in perfectly. The technicians even rewired the outside from the pole to the house thinking that was the problem.

You have discovered the effects of ingress...  signals outside of the coax getting in.  Use good cable, install the right connectors using the right tools and keep connections slightly over finger-tight & virtually all of your internal wiring problems will be over.
