    Weird HR20-700 issue

    Mine has done this a few times. I just assumed it was from updates or something.

    HR-20/21 upconverting question...

    I've got an HDTV and an HR-20. I just recently bought an upconverting DVD player, and I was pretty amazed at how much better SD DVD's look upconverted. So, I got to wondering. Does the new HR-21 upconvert the SD channels? I tried putting my HR-20 on an SD channel, turning off native, and...

    Would VOOM channels be better as VOD?

    Plus, it just makes good business sense to offer all the HD channels the competitor offers and more.

    Would VOOM channels be better as VOD?

    I'd be happy with that. Just make them a premium HD, like HBO or whatever. I'd pay an extra five bucks a month for them. I know everybody bashes the heck out of them, but I'd really like to have them.

    VOOM channels?

    Have there been any more rumblings about Directv getting the VOOM channels? Not that I don't love all the HD we've been getting added, but... Well, I know everybody knocks them, but I kinda like 'em. I've had a chance to watch them quite a bit at a friend's house. Specifically, I would...

    I will never do business with directv again.

    This is a little off-topic, but... A lot of people kept telling this guy to cancel within the 30 days or whatever and he said he couldn't, and some people didn't seem to understand that. Well, for what it's worth, when I first signed up with D*, I had an issue with them and was advised by...

    Gray screen of death on 498

    I tried the pause-unpause trick, and I got the congratulations screen now. Kinda ridiculous, though.

    Gray screen of death on 498

    Sorry to start another thread, but there's way too much stuff to wade through to find the answer to this. 480 and 481 both confirm that my BBC are working. However, 498 gives me the gray screen of death. Why am I not getting the "Congratulations" screen and what do I need to do? (If it's...

    An Update

    I'm still getting the gray screen of death.

    An Update

    498 is in my guide. It doesn't give me a "Searching for satellite," but it doesn't give me an information slide either. Just a gray screen. Anyone else getting that?

    SO freakin' MAD!!!

    Cute. Again, what are you, about 8, 9? Either that or usually people that use "effeminate" or gay slang in a derogatory way are closet homosexuals who secretly hate themselves. Something to think about. The only thing I "set out to do" with this thread was vent and get some advice on how to...

    SO freakin' MAD!!!

    Are you sh*tting me? Girly? Wow. I seriously hope you guys are f**king kids in real life. Because if you're not, and you're actually two grown men calling another grown man "girly" over an argument... Holy Christ is that sad. What next? You gonna threaten to beat me up on the playground...

    SO freakin' MAD!!!

    You guys are ridiculous, seriously. I understand some people not thinking it's as big a deal as others, but only a f**king mental defective would sit here and try to say that what Directv did was just peachy. Somebody sells you something and tells you you're going to get it all the time...

    SO freakin' MAD!!!

    P.S. For the people that keep commenting on my anger... Please keep in mind I had just gotten off multiple phone calls with DirecTV at the time I posted this thread. While I'm still angry about the whole issue, I'm MUCH calmer now.
