Sorry, thought you meant Media Share for viewing JPEG's, listing to MP3's and watching MPEG2 videos, and when used with something like PlayOn streaming content from NetFlix/Hulu, CBS and others.
Those are different, I will add that as well.

Right now it is only MRV that is available via CE. The rest are available to everybody.:up

Why block a good picture. That is why I keep a cordless phone next to my chair.
It is only temporary and my cordless phone is never where I am at. :p

DirecTV interactive features:


Many interactive game packages or game mix channels (LP, CI, EI, ST, MM, ex) with 8 channels
Sports mix (8 channels)
News mix (8 channels)
VOD correlated with each channel (for example TLC is 280 so TLC VOD is 1280).
The Weather Channel
Internet programming
DirecTV2PC
Mediashare
Game Search
iPhone and other networking phone DVR programming
MRV (CE only now)
Caller ID

Feel free to add to the list on your own.

That's funny. Anyone who doesn't agree with you is emotional. :Dlol
No, just you and TomCat


Look.its the nature of sportsfans TOO emotional. That's what drives all this religious fervor over the sportspacks and D*!Need evidence of making things emotional. Stereotype much?


Me and hemi are the only guys bringing any straight thinking into this thread.

Anywho, I also prefer D*'s upcoming MRV solution to E*'s. E*'s way of doing it one reason why I won't switch to E*. I don't like how two rooms have to share the 2 tuners and single hard drive. That limits the recording flexibility.

Amoung my 5 DVRs I have a DVR in my living room and one in my den. The one in my living room is primarily used by my wife and I. The one in my den is used by my 2 daughters. Their's is almost always nearly full of the teen and preteen type stuff. A lot of stuff from Nick, Disney Channel, etc. If my living room TV had to share a hard drive and tuners with the one in the den, there would be no room for my stuff and lots of recording conflicts.

The title is wrong because counting RSN HDs channels DirecTV still has more HD channels than dish.

How many do each of you have under Direct and how many under Dish? Good Question? Not sure! When I joined Satellite Guys I had only D*. But this place made me look into E* within a few months. But I had Both HD services up untill last Fall ,so I'm not really sure on the post counts.

I asked him in another forum and he said that he is unable to post in the WZ.

I did not previously realize that he could not post here. Due to that fact, I will not make any post in response to his prior posts him since he will not be able to reply.

Cool. I see it is a CE now, that is why I am not familiar with it.

Let me update my list then of interactive features on Direct:



Many more interactive game packages or game mix channels since they have more game packages (LP, CI, EI, ST, MM, ex) with 8 channels
Sports mix (8 channels)
News mix (8 channels)
VOD correlated with each channel (for example TLC is 280 so TLC VOD is 1280). There are way more than 4000 choices
The Weather Channel
Internet programming
Networking with your PC
iPhone DVR programming
MRV

Not just iphone dvring.

That is why i went ahead and bought three. The dual room viewing was useless to me! Also only have HD tv's so really useless to me!

The part time or full time status of a channel isn't based on content, but availability. If it was based on content, many of the regular hd channels wouldn't be considered full time. Directv rsn's are available nationally for those willing to pay for them, regardless of the content, therefore they are full time channels.
