I truly despise Time Warner (yet another money-sucking vampire squid) which is why I'm going out of my way to figure out my other options. Just wondering if anyone has thoughts on video streaming? Is the video quality up to snuff and do you get buffering/lag time issues? I basically have CNBC running all the time, so I need a robust solution.įyi. This may be another option instead of getting an adapter. Can anyone suggest a digital adapter that would work in this scenario?Īlso, I've never streamed video from my cable box before (I do rent one). From searching around on the internet I haven't been able to figure out what exactly I need to buy.

I called TWC and they say that I can use a 3rd-party digital adapter, however they refuse to give me any information on brands/models/functions of such an adapter. The research I've done on this (on this site and elsewhere) seems to indicate that in fact it's to prevent people stealing cable and/or to drive additional revenue through the sales of adapters/boxes. Their pitch is that they're converting certain channels from analog to digital. TWC is now requiring that every TV in my home has a digital adapter or a set-top box, if I want to watch certain channels like CNBC.
