    truTV HD now here!

    Why do people who have service through one provider, feel the need to post on a Forum dedicated to another provider? When I was with DISH, I never went to a D* Forum. Why would I? I've now been with D* for 4 years, and I have no plans to visit a DISH Forum. I think the 'my Dad's better than your...

    WHDVR with three HR24s

    I have Whole Home DVR and three HR24s. I use the i-pad app to set all of my recordings. It allows you to specify which DVR you want to record to, and you don't need to interrupt your viewing to do so. :)

    No Internet detected after HD gui update

    My HR24 did the same thing. Just run a Network system test. I did that and it re-established the internet connection and fixed the problem.:)

    HR-24 and new HD guide

    I got the National download version about a week ago. I have it on my three HR24 DVRs. I find it faster and smoother than the old guide.

    HR-34

    Purchasing the HR34 as a stand alone device that can feed other rooms in the house is great....in fact that's what it's designed for, but those wanting to replace an existing DVR in a Whole Home DVR Network with an HR34 had better work out how many connections their SWM has, because in many...

    Do you have the latest HD User Interface?

    The new HD Guide (057B) automatically downloaded to my three DVRs yesterday morning. I love it. Once you get used to the different look of the Guide, you realize how much better and faster it is.

    Hello all. Opinions needed.

    Hi Andrew, The initial cost of the DVR will be interesting, but after that, its Just a box with 5 tuners instead of two.

    Hello all. Opinions needed.

    I have three HR24 DVRs, and they are nice boxes. Early next Year though, DirecTV will be releasing the HR34 DVR. This new DVR will have 5 tuners, allowing you to watch one channel and record four others on the same DVR. It will also have picture in picture. If you are going to be a single DVR...

    HR24HD DVR Noisy Hard Drives...

    When an HR 24 overheats and you reboot it, it runs through a series of cooling cycles. The internal temperature has to get to 125 degrees before the device will engage the start up procedures. it produces on screen messages telling you that it won't boot up until an internal temp of under 125...

    HR24HD DVR Noisy Hard Drives...

    Acceptable temperature depends on whether it's in a closed cabinet or not. I have two HR24s. Both run very quiet. The one in the entertainment center runs at 116 degrees. The one out in the open runs at 106. Both temps are fine and within normal parameters. I had a very loud HR24 about a year...

    Directv contract with Fox networks coming up...AGREEMENT REACHED

    It's just a game of 'Blink'. The deal will get done, and the irony is that there will be a non disclosure agreement preventing either side releasing the details of the agreement. I can pretty much write you the press release if you like. It's just a question of whether some channels go dark...

    Directv contract with Fox networks coming up...AGREEMENT REACHED

    Guys, this all comes down to two companies posturing over contract negotiations. Neither one of them can afford to let the situation get totally out of hand. FOX wants X and D* is offering A. They will meet somewhere between those two points in the Alphabet and all will be well. If some channels...

    Directv contract with Fox networks coming up...AGREEMENT REACHED

    The sad thing is that the only loser in the game is the customer. If the Broadcaster demands and gets a large increase in the carriage license, then the Satellite Provider will pass some of that onto the customer. If a smaller increase is negotiated, then the channels may go dark for a few days...

    Getting ready to leave DirecTV

    I never understand why someone starts a thread like this. If you don't like one provider, then vote with your wallet and go with another....especially if the new provider has HD channels that are important to you and are not offered by D*.

    DirecTV Soccer channels

    I don't know which particular channels you're referring to. I watch the English Premiere League games on ESPN2, FOX Soccer Channel, and FOX Soccer Plus. They are all HD, but the two Fox channels are pay channels.
