Shaw sucks
 
Once a week I look forward to my white trash guilty pleasure, Cops.

It comes on at 8pm on Ch.28 (Fox) and goes for a full hour. Two episodes.
This is some of the only broadcast television I watch so I'm a little pissed that I see "No Video Input" broadcast over the sound of some Chinese drama show.

What the shit? Fuck you, Shaw cable!

murd0c 01-23-2010 07:48 PM

cops is still on? man that show rocked in the earily 90's.

LenovoTurbo 01-23-2010 07:50 PM

Haha just turned to channel 28 and a women said "Close the door, the bitch is coming up" in chinese.

spoon.ek9 01-23-2010 07:51 PM

lol sucks to be you!

LenovoTurbo 01-23-2010 07:52 PM

Apparently it's fixed just now.

El Bastardo 01-23-2010 07:53 PM

NERDRAGE THREAD CARE OF EL BASTARDO!

Its back, but I missed 90% of it. I guess someone didn't close the door fast enough and the bitch came up and in.

I think late night they show cops followed by Reno 911

I don't get that "No Video Input" thing on Shaw that often nowadays, but my cable signal skipped like a motherfucker during the Canucks game. The Punjabi coverage of HNIC didn't though.

sunny_j 01-23-2010 09:36 PM

for me, the video was blacked out with no cable

seakrait 01-23-2010 11:15 PM

for me through Shaw Digital, the sound (only) skips (mutes) every once in a while (but regularly so)... but the same program watched on my regular cable tv in the other room doesn't skip at all.

so it's either my digital box that is causing the sound to skip or it's the Shaw Digital signal itself... kinda annoying... sometimes it's the pivotal part of the show.. like "and the murderer is... [muted]"

Harvey Specter 01-23-2010 11:25 PM

Ditch Shaw, get Bell plus Bell has better overall picture/sound quality.

ivanz 01-24-2010 01:30 AM

I haven't had the EPG guide or any analog cable service for the last 4-5 days. I can watch the digital channels on the box (no VOD though), but have to press the number buttons a couple times to get recognized and everything is extremely slow. No word from them yet on what the problem is...not do they seem to care.

PiuYi 01-24-2010 02:05 AM

TypeRNammer 01-24-2010 02:12 AM

StylinRed 01-24-2010 03:32 AM

and it turned out it was Channel 8s saturday chinese movie (i totally forgot about this) turned out to be a movie ive wanted to see but totally forgot about

about Hong Kongs corrupt police which resulted in the creation of the ICAC

slammer111 01-24-2010 04:19 AM

Ikkaku 01-24-2010 07:13 AM

^ ahahaha yeah I actually really wanted to watch that movie but kept forgetting to go find it.

I called shaw last week and they had an appointment set up for me on Jan 26. Are you doing an upgrade or trying to get a problem fixed?

That doesn't sound right (maybe it was just 2 in that deal?). Only Telus TV limits the number due to the bandwidth they use (1HD+(1 or 2)SD boxes). There shouldn't be a physical limit for Shaw at all...
