Title: IntelliStar degradation for real!
Post by: beanboy89 on July 23, 2008, 04:18:38 PM
I came from work today to see this on my IntelliStar:

It is like that on every screen that is not a map. And no, it's not my tuner, either. It appears like that on TV, too.

What the heck??  :blink: :wacko:

It's probably an issue with your cable company

As of 4:28 PM ET, the problem is fixed. I believe the STAR might have been rebooted.

My local radar just showed a rainbow of colors covering the whole screen! I never seen anything like that before.

My Intellistar is messing up again, the traffic map was blacked out with the highway lines visible.

As of 9:58 am, the map is still in the same state.

Seems like quite a few people have had issues with the traffic map lately.

Was it because there was rain and ice everywhere or was it a graphical glitch?

It was both actually, there white, yellow, orange and a few other colors that came up all over the radar. It was back to normal on the next lot8s.
