I instantly like that song. I haven't noticed anything odd on my intellistar for a while now.

Well, Falsepoint was guessing that Downtwon Lansing has received 3.52" of precip for April, and starting at 9 PM EDT, it decided that we have received 3.22". I am so annoyed that the last piece of credible information was replaced by a computer guess that can't make up its mind!  :censored:
Well, the feature is pretty new. Maybe it's just a glitch or something that has to be fixed.

I hope so, it's playing the same guessing games for me too.
Well, this all just proves my point. All that it is is a complete guess. As everyone can probably tell by now, I am sick and tired of computer guesses completely filling my LF. That is why I am glad there appears to be a HiRAD outage right now, less than 10 minues after my Intellistar rebooted! (perhaps that is why HiRAD is out here?)

there seems to be a lot of complaining going around -- really; just get over it. there is nothing we can do about what you dislike, you said it already don't repeat what you've already said.

Same here! I recorded it :)
Is it copyrighted at all?

Speaking of ad crawls, I've seen IntelliStars in the area (pretty much all along interior South Jersey) showing ads about a cigar shop in the area, and has for years. Isn't it illegal to advertise tobacco products?

It is illegal to advertise cigarette products on TV and the radio.

I'm not so sure about cigars.
Wish I had a WeatherSTAR 4000. Brings back memories.

Yeah, ok. You complaining about me complaining is not going to solve any problems either. And really, it is not that bad. I have made it obvious how I feel, but I don't just complain and complain day in, day out. Try ignoring my posts when you think I am complaining.

Are they using Production Music on the LF now?
I don't even want to watch the LF anymore, the main reason I watch TWC is for the Jazz on the LF.  :hmm:

The playlist for April/May 2009 was posted in another thread recently.  Here's the link to that post:  https://twctodayforums.com/forums/index.php/topic,2122.msg92849.html#msg92849

Urm, that song is by the Verve Music Group which is a division of UMG. Better remove it...

Why remove it? If it's on YT safe then keep it there.

Yes, but eventually it will be removed and I'm not risking getting suspended.

Chances are that it'll never be removed once you are able to upload it successfully within this past year. If u uploaded a copyrighted song in 2006 then you might want to remove it but if you uploaded it recently then it's fine.

This may have been asked before...but how come some IntelliStars have Ad crawls displayed during the local forecast segments while others don't?

it's completely up to the cable company from my understandings.
