On Monday I installed a new LG G2 and ever since then every time I turn on the tv I’m seeing a message to check my picture quality settings to make sure I’m getting the highest resolution. Why am I seeing this message? It’s coming from the HR44 and not the tv. I moved my Samsung QN90B upstairs...

I own both these units and they need new hard drives. Can I use any 2TB drives? I was thinking about WD Purple drives. Someone mentioned that the HR24 drive needs to be 2.5” but I'm not sure. I was also thinking about going external but I think the eSATA docking stations are hard to find now...

I was over at my elderly neighbors yesterday and he has a 211K that he’s had for years I installed a 2 TB ehd for him about 3 years ago and every so often when deleting recorded events the receiver will lock up and reboot. He says this sometimes happens twice in a day or not at all for weeks on...

I’ve purchased two Bell 9500’s which should be delivered to my Canadian address by Friday. I’m going to be using them here in ND and want to buy the right switches. I’m already running a DPP44 but I will need another one. I see two listed on amazon that are the same yet different. Does anyone...

Who would have thought that it was going to be difficult to find an enclosure for a friends HR44? I sold him a 3TB Western Digital Purple Drive I never ended up using with my 44 back when I was a DirecTV subscriber. We went to three different computer shops and no one had what we needed. As a...

I’m trying to setup two legacy SW44’s for a friend who uses large single dishes instead of DPP equipment. He wants to add a fifth receiver. Is there a diagram out there? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Kind of. I can no longer justify paying for two Satellite subscriptions in two different countries any longer. I’ve finally had enough. As of July 1st Bell & DirecTV will both be shut down. I’m going with OTA and Amazon Prime with a NVIDIA Shield or Minix Neo 9H and DirecTV Now. With a VPN I...

Funny thing, wife and I are on the couch and she has Hallmark M&M on and I’m on my phone not paying much attention but happen to glance up and I see this pop up. I’ve never seen anything like this before as long as I’ve had DirecTV. I asked my wife if she’s seen this before and she’s asleep.

Does anyone know if DirecTV Now is available on the TiVo Bolt Vox? My friend is dropping DTV and going with TiVo Bolt Vox for OTA and DTV Now thru his TV. If there was an app through the Bolt it would be more centralized. Depending on how it all works out I might try it out as well as I...

I’ve Had my HR44 since 2014 and back then the Genie Recommends wasn’t bad it even picked up the odd show I liked. Lately it’s all garbage. All it’s been recommending is pay per view. I never have and never will purchase a pay per view. Why is that all it’s “Recommending” now? I’m probably going...

As I do most nights I was watching tv on the main setup HR44 and started getting tired and as usual I shut everything off including the HR44 and went into the bedroom and turned on the bedroom tv & H24 and was going to continue to watch the show so I get all comfortable and hit list and start...

Here in N.D. We have Heroes & Icons channel but lately it seems to be pre-empted more and more with local garbage. I’m all about local support but why don’t they have their own separate channel to air local programs. Why continue to pre-empt a separate channel. I don’t know how H&I put up with...

For a setup that is going to be HR54, three HR24, one H25 & 4K Client. What switch & LNB are needed? I know it’s a reverse band I just don’t know how many tuners it gives.

I'm a proud new owner of Panasonic's new EZ1000 OLED and it along with my other Panasonic sets from last year(I have two DX900's one at the Canadian home and one here that I just moved upstairs) are slated to receive the HLG update this year(Along with HDR10+ on the EZ1000) and I'm told it's...

I wonder if DirecTV changed their guide. I see that none of my upcoming shows have the S./E. heading anymore in my HR44. I wonder if they dropped that feature.

Is this something new? I got a call yesterday from someone claiming to be with DirecTV(number was unknown) and asked me about my service. She said that looking at their records it shows I last upgraded equipment to the HR44 in May/14 I said yes that's right. Then she asked if I had a 4K tv I...

At first I had Panasonic DX900 & UB900 with Onkyo TX-NR1030 using duel HDMI as the Onkyo only has limited 4K. For the longest time the UB900 was showing my tv as 8 bit which is wrong as I know it is a 10 bit panel. Last Friday I buy a Yamaha RX-A2060 and run all through the AVR and the Yamaha...

Over the last while I've noticed recording conflicts on the HR44. For whatever reason it's not using all 5 tuners it's only using 4. At first I thought it was because of the buffer I have set on all my shows but it's never been an issue before. So I then did a test and started recording 5 shows...

I noticed that my HR44 started freezing on live tv again. It was doing this about a month ago and stopped. It does not affect any recorded content just live tv. I noticed that the cables connected to the P.I were loose. I tightened them up and rebooted the 44. Hopefully that works

Tonight I turned on the HR44 it was fine and after a few minutes I switched over to Bell for about 40 minutes. After I switched back to the HR44 it was frozen on the channel it was on. I switched it to the local NBC which ran for about 4 mins then also froze. I did a clear my box and after it...

Today I finally hooked up my Panasonic TC65AX900 with everything going through my Onkyo TX-NR1030 since my new Yamaha hasn't arrived yet. I had Input 1: HR44 Input 2: Bell 9400 Input 3: Samsung K8500 / HDCP 2.2 Input 4: Panasonic BDP Input 5: PS4 All was working as I set the AVR to Auto so...

I know there are other threads on the subject but I was wondering what the limit is for external HDD size? I want to add two 5TB drives one on my HR44 & one on my HR24. I was thinking WD Red or Black drives?

I recently performed this on my HR44 & 24 and every time I do this the 24 will take about 8 minutes and after it reloads and goes to 100 then I get a 771 error for 1 minute or so then it always comes back fine. There is no signal issue at all & cables are tight & secure. The Genie goes through...

I've noticed that ever since we got the Season/Ep number listings on the Genie most of the time it was correct, but they couldn't ever seem to get it 100% right, but after just scanning my to do list it appears that virtually all the Season/Ep numbers are almost all gone except for maybe 2 shows...

I was looking for Fuse HD and noticed a new channel in my locals called H&I I've never heard of this channel before. It appears to show older shows KNDB 26 is the call sign. I'm going to have to look it up. Anyone else have this channel in their lineup?
