So after waiting for 10 min, he turned it on. I can't pay $320 after throwing money for baseball which I am...

    Not having the MLB Network probably isn't hurting Dish much

    Myself, like most other baseball fans, watching live games in prime time. So this report is somewhat worthless.

    DIRECTV to Launch ESPN 3D to Millions of Customers Nationwide

    3D is not for me, constant headache, I will not be suprised if we'll hear some links to brain tumors later. 3D = SD on steroids. That said, I am not against it, if somebody wants it and somebody wants to provide it - so be it. I'll just pass:-)

    vip722, TV2 (IR control?)

    Look for Next Generation remote extender (~$35). There is no better product to accompish your goal. I use it with Harmony remote in the basement home theater to control all equipment upstairs.

    HD DVR causing TV to turn off?

    It is your TV and not DVR. My TV (Mitsubishi DLP) likes to turn itself off very often:mad:. It is a manufacturer defect and apparenty they can't fix it. So check your TV manufacturer website and/or Google your TV model with turns off

    DIRECTV Now the Exclusive Satellite TV Provider of RTVi Russian Television Network

    Both D* and E* should close their Russian programming. Because it costs too much and the choices are very limited. Who are interested in broad Russian TV selection should look for the online service Webtelek.com, $15/month for about 70 channels.

    Good deal NFL-ST

    ...at that time, but he couldn't convince me. Now, two days ago got a bill, and thre was a line for Superfan $16.xx for 1 of 6 payments. So I called D* and they said that it was not cancelled. The guy offered $24.99 for 6 months + Superfan free + $5 off for 6 monhs for movie package. I agreed...

    Are there ANY former E* users that have switched to D*?

    ...independent programs in HD. It cost me extra $5/month. With Dish I should shell another HD DVR fee ($6?, do not remember) to accomplish that. As for the quality of hardware and GUI features I can't see any advantage for one provider over another. Overall I like D* much more now then I liked...

    DirecTV does not support multi room DVR functionality DISH does

    :rolleyes: According to your info D* doesn't need to do anything. You can have a second HD DVR for just extra $5/month. So you will have 4 tuners for 2 HDTVs and can watch two independent programs in HD for less. I am glad I switched and ordered a second HD DVR from D*. With E* it was more...

    NL CENTRAL

    Although, having CC last year was a fun, and Brewers will miss him, I think that they will be overall a better team: one more year of experience under the belt, playoff feelings, better coach, Ben Sheets is a good player, but Brewers never had 100% from him because of all his injuries. Go...

    The White House wants your opinion on The DTV Delay ACT Bill

    I will not send my comments. The whole delay was initiated by Obama. So what is the point. He got the bill he wanted. And all these messages are just wasted keyboard clicks. The same will be true for the comments about the stimulus. Even if all 200 mln. opposed it will send a message it will...

    Signed up for Dtv yesterday, canceled today :(

    All you needed to is just to be sure that it was written in there notes, so just call them ans ask to read notes. If it is written, then they will deliver. At least it happened to me, when they gave me a partial credit for a second HD DVR HR20, they couldn't provide, on a condition that I will...

    Thinking Of Switching To E*, Need Advice

    I have a very different opinion. A lot of confusion here. I had Dish, know very well 622 HD DVR receiver, and can tell that D* is on par with it. "Slowness" of D* receiver is mostly caused by a native resolution feature turned ON (BTW you can't get it with E*). If yoy turn it off you will get...

    how to hook up more then on TV to DirectvHD receiver

    Try HDMI 1-> 4 splitter. Try one from Monoprice. It did not work for me. Maybe because two TVs I have are 1080p, and projector is 720p. I use 2 HDDVR for three TVs. TV1 is connected with component cables with HDDVR1, HDDVR2, TV2 is connected with HDDVR1 with 50' HDMI cable, projector is...

    DISH NETWORK® UNVEILS BIGGEST HIGH DEFINITION UPGRADE IN TV HISTORY

    ...that RSNs are not national channels with Dish. So there is some fuzzy math here. We are talking at most 120 channels subscriber can get. With D* all channels will be available. THey are reaching to that D* magic number, fuzzy math helps a bit, but in reality they are still behind the HD leader.

    Question if I switch from DISH

    It depends on your kid's TVs inputs. If they have HDMI, then use HDMI cable. If not then use RF modulator. I use HR20 and HR21 on a main TV with component cables and use HDMI outputs from the receivers to feed my HD projector in the basement (40' HDMI cable + 50' Toslink cable to a sound...

    Differance between

    I have both HR20, HR21, and find only these differences other then OTA in HR20: 1. Slightly different color schemes (maybe because I use different TV inputs). I like HR21 colors more. 2. Different resolution for program guide. I like the look of HR20 guide more.
