SEC Network HD/STB Issues

bransfrye · ‎08-16-2011

The SEC Network HD just became available to me in Northern Virginia yesterday (Thurs. 9/17). However on my 2 oldest STB's (QIP 6416 DVR and QIP 6200) channel 575 shows up but without audio and a pop up window that says to the effect these STBs don't support this channel. My QIP 7200 and 7200-P2 accept the channel just fine.

Any ideas?

Does it give you an iption to upgrade?
At one time, they were giving out free upgrades to 7XXX boxes if you had a plan that supported channels in MEPG4 but only had 6XXX boxes.

That's exactly what it is. He needs to upgrade the old box. I believe they are still giving free upgrades out.
