    Star Trek Discovery

    As far as the progenitor's story arc is concerned... I could sum up the finale in two words: never mind! Why bother with a 5th season at all with a finale like this? :eeek Man oh man. Did I mention I was really disappointed?

    Why does dish network down convert some channels to SD?

    Agree but I think it's only the SD Hallmark Family channel that does this.

    Star Trek Discovery

    Boy was I wrong! Nice spoiler. Unfortunately, the writers are hacks and didn't know how to end the series. They should have hired you. Yeah. One ponderous last breath. Fits within the mold? I disagree. This was the worst series finale since STE! (The best in my estimation was STV.)

    Why does dish network down convert some channels to SD?

    Understood. But does the contract specify no widescreen SD? Surely not! That picture-framed widescreen content is just... Wrong.

    Why does dish network down convert some channels to SD?

    Ugh! That's even worse than I have seen. I think it's Hallmark Family that's SD and picture framed 100% of the time. Why why why not just put out widescreen SD and not make it suck so badly?

    On Demand Program List

    OK I'm confused. Do you want a linear list of all the programs available under the On Demand tile? :eeek That will be rather lengthy.

    Hopper 3 Software H375

    That's a pretty extensive list. Nice.

    Star Trek Discovery

    I suspect L'ak the Scion will be resurrected, the Breen will join the Federation, and all will live happily ever after. The only question in my mind is whether Book's planet will also be resurrected, or not.

    Star Trek Discovery

    Today's episode was fairly exciting but the more frequent tough spots Burnham miraculously gets out of, the less plausible the story. I fear a kum ba yah moment coming for the series finale.

    Its TEAM SUMMIT week!

    OMG I can't believe anybody referenced that! Wow. This is what I mean by my comment (in another thread?) that we're all typically exotic. We are.

    Where else do you all hang out?

    An auto enthusiast's forum for my 300. Not much traffic (no pun intended) over there these days since Chrysler ended production last Dec 8th. :crying

    Mine went down 2 cents to $3.51.

    Anyone here interested in tough, long-lasting vehicles?

    I would sure hesitate to buy a turbo anything, given the reliability issues of air pumps spinning that fast. On the other hand, it works for the M1.

    Teardown video/photos of Hopper 3 or similar receivers

    The descriptive phrase that applies here is "typically exotic". We are all typically exotic around here. Just look at our backgrounds; what a bunch! I'm an electronics hobbyist, though that's not my education. Even though I haven't built anything in 20 years, I sure did before (went nuts...

    Teardown video/photos of Hopper 3 or similar receivers

    I hear you. I had a college roommate (many years ago) who bought a Revox just so he could take it apart and admire it's engineering.

    Star Trek Discovery

    Episode 8 was broadcast yesterday. Now there is only the season (and series) finale left which is a double-episode. Will they spread it out over two weeks or both next Thursday?

    Disney Is ‘Pretty Dramatically’ Reducing Spending on Traditional TV Content

    OK; I thought I watched enough Mickey Mouse Club episodes to understand this, but alas I do not. What "bursting out" did she do? Can you find a video because I sure can't.

    Spring Cleaning?

    Same here. Combine away. I also think that the DirecTV forums could become sub-forums of the DirecTV Support Forum a la Dish. Do the influencers (still cringe with that word) need individual forums or couldn't they all be placed into one Influencer forum?

    Hopper 3 H373 update 04/24/2024

    Meaning what? Recording? iVOD?

    Newest H3 software.

    Well, I now have H374 and I still can't delete the program I select when I've recorded the same program more than once. I have to delete them (usually both) and then restore the one I want from the wastebasket. Having multiple copies show up properly under a tile has been working fine for many...

    Which made her perfect for me because I'm the same age. :heartbeat

    What do you mean? I have asthma and have no issues with microwaved popcorn. Ha! I liked Jiffy Pop popcorn as well and I'm not joking either. Predated the microwave bag and came out pretty well. Ah, to be young again.

    Star Trek Discovery

    Well, yesterday's episode didn't advance the search much but I liked it anyhow. Martin-Green and Wiseman really did race to exhaustion to get the breathing right, but they did not dehydrate which was faked with some artful makeup. Blu del Barrio is again prominently featured on the show.
