Comcast's Flawed On Demand System

[Kenteman]

SothHoe STFU. If you disagree with someone's opinion so be it, but don't be a trolling buffoon-which you clearly are-and call people names. Troll responds to a 2 year old comment.

[sothsoeur]

Comcast Ondemand is 1000 times better than Dish/Directtv. You have to plug your box to an internet connection to get their ondemand and you have to wait for it to download before you can watch it. I love my Comcast Ondemand!

[carfreak269]

Nice music and U prob have new tv i hope

[MrToothycritter]

It happens here to. What bugs me is finding movies in the free section that cost money, tricking the viewer. More $ to con-cast. So close to switching over to a different provider.

[SymbiSpidey]

@choutchid Because Comcast has a monopoly in a lot of areas.

[DaOnlyNips]

your to poor to afford the upgraded hd box

[mistyNray]

So if you don't like why do you use it? And what do you use that's better? Satelite? Hmmm....if it rains you have NO TV

[TheFutureLooksGrimm]

Same crap happens to me. Funny I thought I was the only one who recorded the errors on camera to explain them to people including comcast. We should all do it.

[OakyDoky24]

i always get error messages

[JerseyHyde]

you guys are stupid. i work for comcast and its not due to bad software or comcast sucking. they probably just had some dumb tech incorrectly do his job. this happens all the time and if youre someone who takes pride in his job you go through all the little things to fix this. i guarentee it was something dumb like due to recessed fittings.

[DontHateOnMyCommentZ]

i have atlantic broadband on demand :]

[DDRSN2]

Wow, your's takes a lot longer to load than mine. My system pauses when scrolling as well, but not as bad as yours. Maybe it could be that the box does not have the proper hardware to sustain the software?

[Gangsrub]

dude you should be happy to at least have on demand, i have dish dish dosn't even on demand

[ana1xoxo32]

I feel bad for you. I have comcast with on demand included but it rarely crashes. Good thing too because I get irattated with technology easily. Sometimes I feel like throwing my computer out the window sometimes -.-"

[The2Wiredproductions]

MAYBE THIS IS WHY THAT FREAKOUT KID SHUVED THE REMOTE UP HIS ASS FOR

[bakedpotato1678]

Comcast on demand sucks. Theres always error messages

[HalfSharkGator]

damn my new speakers are sick!

[cablemedic207]

HMMMMM maybe your radioshit splitters and twist on fittings caused that.

[jjennings107]

This is actually the signs of an old black cable box. there slow to respond. There the dct 2000 model that shows the time and channel on the front. swap the box out. no fix call em.

[Couchpatatoe007]

my damn box wont even get a signle to on demand it pissis me off!!!

[JESUSandARIANNA]

lol yeah the system sucks, as a matter of fact i happen to work in comcast vide repair and a meta-6 means loos of connectivity from the server to the dct, needs hit and if that dhes now work it needs a ticket that takes 48hrs. we do the bay and central area of california.

and the tech sleeping on you couch!!!!!!! ohhh man that is golden LMFAO

[dadegoon2]

HAHAHHAH LMAO!! Solution:SWITCH TO SATELLITE

[Kenteman]

Wow. I had the same problem. How did I solve it? Hmm, let's see. Oh, I switched to satellite!

FU Comcast!

[TrukenX]

Im sorry man... how is your ondemand at satelite... ohh no you dont have any... because the system has NO 2 way comunication.... only an iddiot would say i have a care i like it seems to be slowing down so i would just give up driving

[sothsoeur]

@Kenteman switching to satellite is not solving that problem moron unless you prefer no ondemand at all and if that's the case why are you complaining?

[Kimbahley]

Wow, you get free movies? That's awesome.

[bitchalottameme]

upstream problem at the house. its not the system.

call for an appointment.

[n4tti1c3]

its the box reboot it.

[yubboy]

This isn't their system that is flawed, You my friend have a what we call Bandwidth problem. You got to call a tech out so that they can amp your signal out side from the pole. hope this helped. =]

[N4tti1ntampa]

@yubboy  amp the signal? what about return?

[rwhclaymation]

Go UVERSE

[musicmasterkmk]

woah your box is slow mine seems to work a lot better than most peoples. I think that not only caused by the box but by a bad cable connection.

[2pac0406]

all u need to do is unplug the coaxial cable from the wall and then plug it back dude

[scootterpootter]

Fuck Comcast, Long Live UVerse!!!

[scootterpootter]

Wow it seems as though we have a bunch of techs who like blowing Comcast on here. I just got rid of their shitty service due to this exact same problem. Some are right, it is from splitters and bad cabling, which is what the Comcast techs installed in my brand new home. When I got rid of their service, the Uverse tech had to rewire my entire home and everything works great now. LONG LIVE UVERSE, Fuck Comcast!!

[jeepsport32]

ur a fucking idiot. your prob the type that put in your own lines and shitty splitters that not compatible. its giving you a meta-6 error which could be your upstream or downstream signal strength. that is why it is slow. its having trouble communicating with the vod servers. get a tech out there or fix it yourself since you seem so smart.

[Ayien1989]

You're the fucking idiot. It's CABLE. It's not like it's communicating with a satellite where there can be LNB interference from weather.

With cable everything should be instantaneous. It's just Comcast's poor implementation for information retrieval. Firmware is everything when it comes to speed. If the damn thing can't handle the information appropriately than it will pause and possibly crash (as seen here).

Signal strength would have nothing to do with the box crashing.

[vbgfbgbgbngnhgj]

i have it mine dosent do that yours is just fucked up you should take the dam thing off asshole couse comcast is great looser now no one might not by it because of you

[Avigadro]

I *H A T E* the comcast digital firmware. It is slower than hell. Turning channels takes forever. You can't filter out channels that you don't subscribe to. Their 'on demand' has the same crappy movies that have been on for the last year. They are WAY over priced.

Where is the innovation? Comcast is a suckish monopoly and I hate them more and more every day. Your video shows one aspect of this.

Good job.

[sanjostyle]

comcast is only disappointing when customers try to get creative and install their own inferior splitters to run extra lines that aren't compatible with the equipment.

[PBNkapamilya]

didn't you see the "one moment please" note on the uppermost side of the screen???

[blackberryjuice1]

YAWN. BORING. This is such a waste of time.

[TheKyGuy]

From the looks of it, Comcast is kind of disappointing at times, am I right?
