weirdness with speakers last night

[pmckeealaska]

OK, so I was watching "Contact" with Jodie Foster on HBO last night and at the start of the movie, the sound kept going in and out of my right front speaker. I turned to other channels on the satellite and listened to some music and had no problems. Does anyone have any idea what was going on here? I just hope my right front speaker isnt messed up!!

It was probably HBO's problem if you have not experienced it with anything else.

Yeah, I've had that happen with Directv... Someone just droppped the ball. Actually, once they had the surround channels comming out of the fronts & vice versa. I freaked for about thirty seconds until I changed the channel.

I get commercials every once in a while that come out of the surrounds only. Used to have a channel that only came out of the right front.
