STAR ID Error?
« on: April 12, 2010, 10:40:32 AM »
Hi STAR Team,

while going through my Youtube videos, I noticed that the STAR ID on the Verizon FiOS IntelliSTAR for Richmond, VA has a little "dot" where the ID# gets displayed. It doesn't display a cable co. logo nor channel number. It will, however, display radio info (just the "Call to be part of" part, not an actual station).

Pic is attached. It's from July 2009, but I think the STAR might still display like that.

I remember seeing this seeing this same STAR in April 2008 and it did the same thing.

Could this be because of two headends using the same STAR? :unsure:

STAR ID is 27100. :wave:

I've gone off on a journey to be a moderator at another forum, but this place will forever remain home for me~

Verizon headends do not display the STAR ID or Verizon FiOS logo on station IDs. It's an issue with Verizon, not TWC.

Ah, I see now.  I only asked because I saw images on Silicondust with the Comcast headend of Richmond and the configs were exactly the same.

And btw, here's a Comcast headend just like this, however this one seems to be on an XL unit
Naples WeatherStar XL - 10/24/09 First Day In Florida

Please refrain from requesting support for issues you are not currently experiencing. I don't consider this appropriate to post since you are basing your evidence on a 9 month old youtube video. ;) Please just keep in mind next time
