Title: Incredible - Never seen this before!
Post by: Gil on June 02, 2009, 10:59:47 AM: The background on my IS is not displaying! It's icons, with very faint gray text on a black background.

This is the most bizarre thing I've ever seen.

EDIT: There's no TWC video either. The top part of the LDL (where it says NOW, TODAY, TRAVEL, etc.) appear as normal, but the main body text of the LDL is on a black background.

Post by: Al on June 02, 2009, 11:30:49 AM: that seems to be happening very often now. i captured a few pixs from when my start did that, but the background was completely black, the font was completely legible (white) and the icons were actually shown.

Post by: Gil on June 02, 2009, 08:51:03 PM: So is this just happening to me? I've had this ALL day, and no TWC video is showing either.

You mean like there is no TWC feed after the forecast? Call your cable company. Sounds like either the STAR needs a reset or they have screwed something up with their connections

I get no TWC once the LDL comes on. So that 30-second timeframe between the end of the LF and the LDL, the video feed is there. :huh:
