1080 Bc

[tomcrown1]

I just got a e-mail from Dish stating that 1080BC in 1080P is now available for September @ $2.99 to rent anyone else got this notice??

Does anyone have 1080BC in 1080P???0

 

[neoabacus]

i did too, did you notice in the fine print though "$1.00 ordering fee applies. "

so i'm guessing its really 3.99

Yep I saw that and Charlie is trying to save us money???

Probably, because if I can't see it in my guide, I can't order it. :up

 

[neoabacus]

I just looked and I have the "new" 6.13 software and the 10,000 BC VOD in HD in my guide

I've adopted that philosophy, not having the 1080 movies on my 622. So far, they're movies that I've seen, or don't want to see, so Dish is actually saving me from myself by not giving them to me.

I'm still working with folks at Dish on the 1080P movie non-receipt on my 622.

No news today other than my contact is still working on it.

I am on L613 on my 622 and still no 1080p.

Same here. I am Legend in HD disappeared and no new 501 channel with 10000 BC. I have one of the origional 622s when they were first released.

I got that email too. It's worthless to me, as my 722 STILL doesn't have any 501's/VOD at all.

That's the date they built the pyramids, using Mammoths, to pull the blocks into place! hehe.


Or, it's the date they made the sequel to 10,000BC, but this one doesn't SUCK!

Ha! My lowly 622 got 10kBC 1080p on 9/1. Not that I care to spend a dime on it. What the hell is going on here again. Some folks have it, others don't or maybe never will! I guess we can look forward to many months of $2.99 specials til they figure it out.... I wonder just how hectic or smooth DirecTv's offering will go when they offer up 1080p.

I'm still waiting for my contact at Dish to explain, and for them to figure out what's buggered up.

They really are not sure at the moment, and are investigating with input from me and the threads here.

Well, they've put it back in my hands, since I finally got the 1080p VOD this morning.....

I have one receiver with this movie and one receiver without. The receiver that did not have, I am Legend, in August has this movie available while the other that had, I am Legend, does not have it. Plus, my 1080p TV did not "qualify" to even watch it. What fun, Dish Network is having with all this crap! A hurican is a'comin so I don't have time to mess with it.

Got a call from my Contact at dish, and they had me:
1) disconnect my EHD
2) Disconnect my Broadband
3) remove the other receiver from the dish comm list
4) disconnect phone line

Now we see if 10,000BC shows up between 0200am and 1000am CDT.

You can still watch the movie, it just won't be 1080p24, rather 1080i60. PQ will still be great.

I'll look for your append in the morning but all I can say is that's a stretch. I can say from my experience, that 1, 2 and 4 aren't applicable. FWIW, I have one TV and run the DVR in single mode. I only hook my EHD when I want to watch an archived movie or archive from the DVR to the HD. My phone line is always connected as well as my Broadband. I just hope they figure this all out or modify what they expect a 1080p capable TV to be.

fredp:
I agree, it's a stretch, and I'm not hopeful, but we at least need to play the game. They are looking at my logs, and working with me, so that's a start. They do want to get to the bottom of this.
