    Directv Now adds DVR cloud

    Yeah it sounds nice until you use it. After using a traditional DVR for the last 15 years while it’s nice being able to record a show that’s about as far as I’d go. Some of the services you can’t rewind live tv, some you can pause live tv but the time varies wildly on the station your on and so...

    New/Updated review of the big 6 OTT options

    After trying them all this is the best combo for the price. YTTV for me was the most consistent with the best DVR and adding Philo gave me all the channels that was missing from it at $51. But in the end I ended up going back to Xfinity. With their bundle deals I get 150MPS internet and their...

    Coming back

    So after a few years I'm ready to come back. I've done the Netflix/Hulu thing and I'm getting tired of it and want a DVR to archive stuff so I'm not dependent on my internet to watch tv. With the 200$ gift card deal and the 10$ month off with a referral seems like a good time to come back. Now...

    Lighted remote?

    So far the best remote I have used is the X1's. It lights up when it senses movement and then turns off shortly after.Only downfall is it eats batteries pretty quickly. D*'s lighted remote was okay but you had to push a button to turn it on and off. I have high hopes for Dish's new remote...

    Going from Dish to Comcast

    Make sure if you do get the client boxes that you get the Xi3's. These are the newer boxes that come with a SD card that give you DVR functionality and also up to a 30 minute live buffer. Also IR/RF remote

    DVR Folder question

    As of right now I don't have the missing folder issue you have(and hopefully don't get it!) The main reason I set up the folder option was to eliminate the Sponge Bob and other kid recordings I have to sift through while trying to find my programming. I imagine the request I had earlier about...

    DVR Folder question

    So Ive been back with *E and Im still figuring everything out. One thing I REALLY like is the option to create folders and have specific programing automatically go into a desired folder. One thing I noticed is when you go into a custom folder to view the programming it shows every episode of a...

    Total picture loss

    Same thing happened to me as well. It was during the first half of the World Cup final and I got complete signal loss. I ended up only missing about 15 min of the game. Posted Via The FREE SatelliteGuys Reader App!

    Hopper recording question

    I was hoping maybe at least there was a option that allowed you to record from the beginning, seems like something *E should be able to do. Oh well, I''l just have to train the wife on how to do it:)

    Hey guys I just had my Hopper installed yesterday and Ive really been enjoying the feature set it has! Now I do have one question about how it records compared to how my Genie did. So here is my question- With *D if I was watching a program and say halfway through I hit the record button it...

    Coming back to *E, couple questions

    So after getting a deal I couldn't pass up Im coming back over to *E from *D. I currently have the Genie with 3 wireless clients and Ive had no issues. Having 5 tuners has been very nice. Now my install with * E will contain a Hopper W/ Sling, a Super Joey & a wireless Joey. So here are some...

    Software update & wireless client FYI

    Ya I've tried rebooting them but it's still not wanting to connect. It's weird when I go to the add client set up on the Genie the clients will say they are getting excellent signal but they just time out when trying to find the server. Posted Via The FREE SatelliteGuys Reader App!
