CBS KOLN 10
8/31/08
Noticed problem starting at 7:00 pm

video is "stuttering" again and the audio is off about 1 second.

Problem has been during Big Brother, Cold Case, CSI, and Local News and continues.

No issues on 10-1 OTA

Update:

Problem was still occuring on 9/1. No problem from what I could tell on 9/2.

Turned to local news last night 9/3 and problem was back on both HR20 & HR21.

This morning audio was off about 3-4 seconds. Audio was ahead of video.

Am I the only one seeing this? Could there be a problem with my setup? There is no other problems with any other channels other than the known glitches on ESPN. OTA seems fine for this same channel. (KOLN 10)

I answered you on the other thread, but I don't think its your setup since you and I are getting identical problems with HD KOLN thru Direct. I have H20's and an HR20 also, and I'm using the SWM8 for my multiswitch so that I can combine OTA with Direct, and just use one line to each receiver. If we're getting the same problems at the same time, this is obviously a Direct/KOLN transmission problem that I'm sure they'll figure out soon enough. But one of us had better keep posting updates so that Direct can monitor the problems, since they use dbstalk to monitor these things. Looks like its just been you and me lately, lol.

Anyway, tonight CSI looks fine on KOLN 10, so I guess we'll see if it holds...

Well, it us again in Lincoln. Turned over to the news this morning on KOLN (10) and the video stuttering and audio problems are back again for the 5 or 6th time. Problem was fixed for about a week and now is back. Sure hope this gets resolved before the new fall programs start. I may have to switch back to not so reliable OTA. :(

Is anybody else having issues on KHAS (5)? It has been going on for about a month now. Approximately every 20-30 minutes the sound will have this strange clicking echo and then drop for about 4-5 seconds. I've noticed it on Heroes, Chuck, Sunday Night Football, My Name is Earl, & The Office to name a few. Not sure if it just my reciever or if it is the local station.

KOLN issues are back again. Last night during CSI: Miami it was very subtle, but this morning during the morning show it was a little worse.

Again, not sure if this my setup or not, but KHAS is still having audio cut-outs for about 4-5 seconds every 20-30 minutes.

Also on Monday's episode of Heroes at the 20 minute mark all voices were very very muted. You could still hear doors closing, people walking, all the debris flying around, but peoples voices couldn't be heard unless I turned the tv up all the way to 80 and then it was still very quiet. This lasted until the 33 minute mark. Commercials during this time played normally.

I've seen these issues as well, but then again I've had on again off again problems with most all of the HD locals since they started. Looks like these stations are still working out some kinks in this process.

Do you happen to know when us Lincolnites should expect HD Fox?

huskernut - I read that KTVG (Grand Island Fox) should be up sometime in December. They have the equipment and are currently installing it.

I've been having the same issues as everyone else. KOLN is mostly unwatchable due to video stuttering or A/V sync problems.

Does anyone know the status of KHGI out of Kearney?

KOLN Problems are back again. :shrug: Well they were last night and this morning. I was going to post earlier in hopes it would get fixed for tonight, but I got busy at work. Seems like we get about a week out of each "fix" and then it returns.

Guess I better switch the DVR to OTA tonight.

Problems on KOLN (10) are back again tonight. Stuttering video and horrible audio sync. Wish someone would fix this properly.

Both HR20-100 & HR21-200

Anybody else having problems with ABC - KLKN (8) HD. It's not working on my tv, just a blank black screen. All the rest of my locals are working. My receiver is a HD-DVR - HR20-100.

I have an HR20-700 and KLKN has been working normally.

However, not sure if this might be related, but last week my off-air KLKN reception was gone for a couple of days. Now I can receive it, but the signal strength is much lower than before.
