    BBCAHD.....

    I am a loyal dish customer. they have problems, but they are still the best in the market. I don't have my hopes high for an activation of the HD bbca feed this week. it will probably happen monday after the sci fi that is supposed to introduce the hd is over.

    Playboy tv HD

    no offense or anything, but I have seen HD porn, and it is not a pleasant thing to watch. SD covers up a lot of the more disturbing flaws on the typical porn stars body. I realize it may just be me, but I am not really interested in seeing track marks on the performers in a porn. kind of a...

    The Dish April 1st New HD Saga (Merged Threads)

    not really a big deal for me. I am happy with the HD content. not that I wouldn't be happier with more, but so far the one HD channel add that would send me to HD only isn't even being discussed(G4hd). I am patient, some say i am abnormally so. I am patiently waiting for G$hd to appear in the...

    Infomercials-Inserted commercial volume OUTRAGEOUS!

    I have found the same thing to be true for HD, and SD programming. HD audio is much louder than SD. watching a program in SD and switching to an HD program can be jarring at times. going from HD to SD can make you think that you accidently hit the mute button.

    DISH NETWORK® LAUNCHES FANDANGO iTV APPLICATION

    I live less than a mile from a 17 theatre cinemark location that has a ticket ATM inside. I also live in a state that is notoriously computer illiterate. I have never seen a line at the ATM, and I my friends tell me that i am the only person they know that uses it. I have been to that theatre...

    Charlie Chat Recap 3-09-09

    I don't know why it came up, they weren't even discussing hd at the moment it did. the only thing i remember is that it was definitely a G4 HD logo. I recorded the chat last night, just didn't have time to review it. I guess i will have to wait until i get home tonight to scan it.

    Charlie Chat Recap 3-09-09

    last night i saw a graphic containing a logo for G4hd, but just as it came up my wife changed the channel. what was it in reference to? I don't see the graphic in the chat wrap up.

    1/29/2009 2:12am Uplink Activity Report - 6 changes

    yes, sadly WDBD is apparently having problems as well. My wife was trying to watch american idol last nite, but the audio dropped out whenever 40 showed anything in HD. sd stuff had the audio with it, but as soon as the side bars dissappeared so did the audio. same problem as when I tried to...

    1/29/2009 2:12am Uplink Activity Report - 6 changes

    the problem I have had is that fox 40 though broadcasting in HD(it comes in, but poorly OTA) doesn't come in well at all. linked up through dish though I am sure it will be clear as a bell. all other local hd is clear on dish.

    Uplink Activity 12/14/08 Young Broadcasting Stations RETURN

    I agree. The broadcast networks are more, and more every year fighting for a bigger share of a shrinking market. every year the reports come out about how overall viewership of the broadcast networks are falling like a stone. it may not happen tomorrow, or even the next day, but with every...

    Will Dish get BBC America in HD?

    I am right there with you top gear is the best show on BBCA. BBCA HD will be the catalyst to get me to go HD only.

    Get a wing dish or wait?

    nope. I didn't have to make a commitment of any kind. I followed the advice of several people on the forums here. I didn't go through a sales rep. I called the tech line, and reported the lack of reception of the HD channels as a technical problem. they sent a tech that (thanks to the...

    When will Dish ad the CW-HD to the Houston area?

    the local CW affiliate in Jackson, MS currently has no digital signal. the station did not exist at the time the FCC gave out the digital licenses, and therefore the station did not get one. however they will have clearance to go digital when the changeover happens, that clearance will not go...

    The Thread For Those Cities Without All BIG 4 in HD

    The jackson, MS fox affiliate has always been problematic about cable, and sattelite carriage. they were the last to give the go ahead to the local cable cable company(at the time it was capitol cablevision, was bought out by time warner, and is now comcast). when the government said the cable...

    No new HD for a while?

    I know how that is. because of things i learned on this site when the technician arrived to install the dish i needed to pick up 61.5 I knew more about it than he did. he didn't even know 61.5 existed, and also didn't know that HD locals were available in the area, when they had been available...

    5-07-08 HD Rumors.

    both CNN, and Fox are biased. CNN covers it up just a teeny bit better than fox, but they both are nothing more than political tools. I don't watch either of them. Robin Meade on headline news is hot. Fox? well...apparently Murdoch, and Ailes have a thing for dim witted blondes. they are both so...

    Uplink Activity 5/01/08 2:00 AM EDT -- 3 minor moves

    I am a self admitted technofacist. if there is new tech better than the existing tech then the existing tech HAS to go, and has to go as QUICKLY as possible. Broadcast TV is on its last legs. the only reason they still exist is old people, technophobes, and government interference. internet...

    Dish has been slow, but they have also been relatively sure. I am happy with the current content. more would be nice, but i can wait.
