    No surround sound for smart TV apps

    So I recently had a fireplace and built-in bookshelves & cabinets installed. Since I had been out of the tech game for so long (I was still rolling with a 2002 Mitsubishi projection TV) I wasn't as up to date on what wires I should have had roughed in for my TV and A/V receiver for surround...

    Can recorded programming be transfered to new receiver?

    I am getting new equipment today and have a lot of recorded shows that I haven't gotten around to watching yet. Is there any way to transfer recorded programming from an older receiver to the new one?

    Service tech said he'd be back to install support arms...

    And he hasn't come back or called yet...it's been a week. Here's what happened. On New Year's Day the service tech came out to realign my dish that had been blown off position by high wind. I didn't have to pay for the service call since a tech had been out on Nov. 1 to realign the dish after...

    Pixelation/static on HD ch. 544, all other channels fine

But not for long...

    How hard is it...

    ... to basically become your own tech? For instance, my dish is located on the roof of my house and I am thinking of buying a ladder and fixing the dish on my own when the wind knocks it out of whack. The dish has needed to be realigned 3 times in the last 2 years. So, if anyone is able to move...

    Phone line connection question....

    What will happen if there is no phone line connected to the HR-20 receiver? Could not having a phone line connected to the receiver be the reason my local HD channels (as well as other HD channels) are currently out? Am I missing important updates? I noticed the most recent software upgrade I...

    HD Channels hit or miss

    OK, here's my problem. Monday night, none of my Washington, DC local HD channels are working. I am getting the 771 message, but even that is flickering in and out. I call DTV and they have me reset the receiver and swap out the cables connected to the back of the receiver. Nothing is working...
