    Want a new HR54

    The only way to guarantee you'll one is to do a 4k upgrade or buy one from solid signal. Sent from my PH-1 using the SatelliteGuys app!

    Quick question on running 2 T.V.'s

    Both the HDMI and component work simultaneously on my hr44.

    Ready to dump Directv

    Maybe you have Native on in the settings.

    Getting DTV, who-what-why-old timer needs advice.

    No comparison to me on my 65" Sony. D* is much better. Much sharper and clearer. The compression artifacts on E*s picture are atrocious.

    New Guide UI now rolling out (plus HDR support!)

    No slow down here. Only thing I notice is some stuttering in the guide scrolling when ad banners become visible.

    I've noticed that recently too.

    Genie Fast Forward ?

    Genie has an equivalent Hopper 4x speed, plus the skip to tick feature which is nice, too.

    Any new software coming?

    The downressing is one main reason dish's picture looks so soft.

    Any new software coming?

    I switched from dish a month ago. The directv PQ is noticeably better on my 65" Sony. My hr44 has been fine so far. Don't miss the H3 with all its bugs and the PQ is so much better, especially for sports.

    I made the jump from DISH to DirecTV

    So, how are you liking DirecTV since it's been a little while since you switched? I'm seriously thinking now of switching from dish. Would you still consider the PQ on DirecTV better than dish? Since I upgraded to my xbr65850c from a 50" plasma, the softness of the dish picture and the...

    Banner Ads?

    I agree, but it was only a matter of time and at least they're not interspersed throughout the the guide like some other providers

    Banner Ads?

    The H3 has only one at the bottom of the guide. You can set it display ads or tips, but can't turn it off. I frankly rarely notice it.

    I made the jump from DISH to DirecTV

    I've heard the DTV picture is crisper, but what about compression artifacts/noise, especially in solid surface backgrounds? Noticeable?

    Sony XBR850C

    I think it looks great. Not sure where you've read that, but Sony is know to have some of best up scaling in the industry.

    TBS & TNT Basketball

    Agreed. No macroblocking on mine, but the full court camera view is soft. I have H3 with a sony xbr65850c.

    Sony XBR850C

    I've had my 65 850c for about three weeks now. Really happy with it. Upgraded from an 8 year old 50" 720P Panny plasma.

    H3 - Audio Dropout?

    No audio drop outs on mine. I've been set up since release.

    Hopper 3 hookup to remote tv with no Joey?

    I have my main TV connected with hdmi and a second tv connected via component. Works fine as only one is ever on at a time.

    The hdmi cables that ship the H3 and joeys..

    The cable that came with my H3 says High-Speed on it. It's molded in one side of each plug housing.

    Hopper 3 on non-4K?

    Not true. It will work fine on non-4k TVs.

    the "I now have a hopper 3 and I have questions" thread

    Mine works like the others. H3 will turn on TV, but won't turn off TV. Turning off TV won't turn H3 off either. So, it seems to work right when powering on, but to power off you still have to manually power each off separately.

    Impressions of 52.0 remote.

    I like it. Had mine since release. I use it on my main tv in the living room and I have a 40.0 that I use in my office. I like the 52.0 better.

    DVR Menu sorting?

    I always had my HWS group shows by type, so H3 is no different in that regard for me. I then sort by episode number so the recordings are in order from older to newer. It sounds like you don't want the same shows grouped together? I don't think that's possible.
