Video removed?

He probably removed it because someone rated it a one star.

No, I removed it because I figured out what the problem is, there's a cable outage here.

Anyone know if the video feed problem is on TWC's end or my cable provider Comcast? I can't check any of the other channels because unfortunately my cable remote is broken of all days......

Everything Else TWC / Re: TWC overusing production music

« on: June 22, 2009, 05:45:15 PM »

The use of production music has been happening since late 2005, but ever since late last year, they seem to use nothing but production music on all the shows except for PM Edition and Weather Center. Even the openers don't have the original show music on a lot of the shows. Why are they doing this? It makes their productions really sloppy. None of the other news stations I've seen are anywhere near as worse as this. All the local stations use their own themes as bumper music. So IMO, TWC should really get back to using each show's respected theme music.

I don't understand why they are doing that either , it's always so random and annoying at times hearing something different on every show every day.

TWC must've discontinued the 1 min product playlists. The normal 2 min lfs on :08 and :38 and 1:30 flavours at :18 and :48 are back.

The one minute flavors are back today.

Darn.

my twc feed just got knocked out since the local radar at 8:38am edt has this happened to anyone else?

Only the audio is working and Local ad inserts are working

Main TWC video feed is down on my star + local forecast

This exact same problem happened with the E.L. STAR back on Memorial Day. It may take a couple of days for video feed to get restored, so be sure to notify the STAR team about it. The Intellistar here in Lansing is working properly.

Mine is working fine too, I was recording a segment then that I missed an hour before.

They need to fix the YOUR WEATHER [LDL here] problem with the teasers... the LDL is covering the bottom part.

They do need to improve on that, other than that I like the new opener and lower thirds, I figured they would change it anyway.

Jeff Morrow announced that Jen had a baby girl yesterday, so she was right when she said the baby would be born on the first day of Summer/Father's Day, Apparently she pinned down that being her due date for months! Congrats to Jen and her new baby girl!

Soo, Fathers day is 2morrow. I am gonna go back to Target to pick up my Fathers Day Project. It's a custom made Photo Album that has pictures of the whole family. My sister made a customized necktie from Wal-Mart, and my mom is gonna buy a new cellphone. I am also gonna do barbeque-ing! 

Uh oh! Keep the fire extinguisher nearby! Lol

Hope it goes well for your dad Ana!

Happy Father's Day!
Also, as of 1:46 AM EDT, it is now summer!!! 

TWC has been featuring some interesting summer gadgets today! My favorites are the two I just saw a few minutes ago: Solar Powered Backpack, and a USB Powered Fan! 

I like the one about the air conditioned clothes, I would wear that every day of Summer.
