Is there a device or TV that keeps volume level or at least
constrained? My kid is trying to watch a movie on FX and the volume
fluxuation is so severe that we can't even let my kid watch it as we
are trying to have phone conversations with clients in the next room.
One second it needs to be at volume level 45, the next 18-20 is
plenty.. This is rediculous, can't even watch the TV we pay 100 bucks
a month for.. Crap...


Hey, one of my kids mentioned the same problem while watching History
Channel yesterday.
Besides the sound going up and down. it sometimes cuts out, and
sometimes both sound and picture freeze for a few seconds.
This is Comcast cable.
I blame it on digital. And Canada. Just like Tom.


Comcast is too blame for the cutting in and out of the sound and the
picture freezes and losses. It is the nature of digital information
transmission.
