    How to Watch Live TV from my PC (Placeshift)?

    I just switched from Dish to DirecTV, and I'm having some buyer's remorse already. The DVR technology is way further behind with DirecTV. Hopper, channel skipping, Sling, etc. all seem to be more polished. That said, I was talking to DirecTV support and was trying to figure out how to watch...

    PIP - DoublePlay - Football - How to Switch Programs in PIP

    I'm blown away that I can't figure out how to use PIP or DoublePlay on my HR44 to accomplish a trivial thing. First, I want one game in PIP and one game in main frame. I want to easily and frequently switch between the two. On Dish network, I would select one channel, then select the other...

    HR44 - Can I used Ethernet? DIRECTV Says No

    My HR44 is installed right next to my Wireless Router. I was told by the installer and an online DIRECTV support person that I could not use hard wired Ethernet to my router and that I must wirelessly connect the HR44 to the router. I did hard wire it initially and it worked, but I heeded the...

    HR44 RF Remote that Controls AV Receiver

    I just got an HR44 and I'm upset that unlike past DIRECTV and Dish network remotes, it will not turn my AVR on or off. It does control the volume, so now I must unnecessarily leave my AVR on for maximum convenience. I was going to get an RC66 remote, but I learned they don't work with HR44...

    Wireless Joey without Dish WAP

    Hi all, I've got a long-term visitor coming in, and I plan to buy a Wireless Joey from Amazon or eBay. I also want the wireless one so I can move it around and use it outside from time to time during BBQs, etc. I called Dish, but they want an installation tech to come out and it costs quite a...

    Replaced HR22 with HR23 and now RC24 RF remotes perform poorly

    My HR22 bit the dust (constant crashing) and DirecTV replaced it with an HR23. However, now my three RC24 RF remotes have severely reduced range. I used to be able to use them anywhere in my bedroom or office. Now I have to deliberately point the remotes towards the room with the HR23 and...

    HR22 Freezes and Crashes (Brand New)

    My DTV HR22 receiver constantly stutters/jitters (with artifacts and often audio distortion) during playback, often bad enough that it makes watching things unbearable. Twice after severe stuttering the receiver has completely crashed and shut off forcing a red button restart. It's aggravating...

    DirecTV Gurantee - CS Lied to Me!

    I just had DTV installed last week. I signed up via a phone CS rep. I asked her how long my contract was for and she said 1 year. However, I called today to ask a question about the rebates and I was informed my contract is 2 years. I made my decision based on the fact that with the rebate...

    Help: HR22 Splitter Problems

    I just got my HR22/DTV setup installed, replacing my Dish setup. With Dish, I was running an RF modulator taking my RCA signals and running them back into the coax lines. Back in my closet (where all the coax runs), I had a splitter. It had a DC-Pass from the satellite signal (from roof) to...

    Which RF Remotes for New HD-DVR Receiver (Unsure of Model)

    I just ordered DirecTV and need to order 2 RF remotes for my other TV/rooms. They told me I couldn't order the remotes until I had the service installed. I'd rather get the remotes now so I can use them immediately upon installation (I'm installing an RF modulator). I don't know which box...

    HD-DVR 200+ Package, Does it Include Fox Sports Net?

    I called to get DirecTV today and the phone rep said Fox Sports Net isn't included in this package, yet online it says it is included. Does anyone know for certainty. In my region it's Fox Sports Southwest. I want to make sure I'm getting that. Thanks also to the member who gave me the referral.

    Help: Want to switch from Dish, but unsure about HD DVR Plus functionality

    I'm month to month with Dish Network who I've been extremely satisfied with for 5 years, however, it appears they will not offer NBA League Pass so I am going to switch to DirecTV. The reason I love Dish is because of the VIP 622 receiver I have. I am able to pump video through the COAX in my...
