    Stream - New software?

    It’s a shame because it’s the best picture quality in the house. I have the LG C2 OLED and there’s even a newer one out, the C3, and also more expensive G3. Just remarkable displays. Heck even now the HDR really pops on this Thursday night football game via Amazon Prime Video. I spend 90% of...

    Stream - New software?

    Thats really shortsided of app developers. Its the best looking TV in my house. Can go on youtube and search for OLED test videos. Its remarkable, especially like OLED starfields or that black background with the honey stick. The black is 100% black. The color is so vibrant. The LG OLED...

    Stream - New software?

    I like this look on my Roku’s and Sony Android TV. They also added the 4k channels to the guide. I just wish they would release an LG WebOS version of this app. With LG ranking extremely high with their OLED TVs, it would be nice if my C2 OLED would have the app so I could turn in the client...

    Possible good Tapatalk News

    Wow I came here just to see what was going on with Tapatalk. I think I had 6 different emails from various forums regarding cutting Tapatalk access September 21st. What’s strange is they are all worded identically. Doesn’t matter if it’s a car forum, a technology forum, fishing forum, etc…...

    DirecTV goes back to the 2 year price guarantee

    Xfinity is also offering 2-year pricing on any of their services. HOWEVER, whats NOT INCLUDED is below-the-line fees. For example, the Broadcast fee, RSN Fee, Set-top box fee, all are subject to yearly increases. I'm lucky that I am in a market where DirecTV does not charge an RSN fee. Plus...

    DIRECTV UNIFIED BRAND COMING APRIL 6th.

    Yeah, the osprey box is great for that remote/direct channel entry. There are still loads on ebay. So after April 6th will you even be able to use one on a DirecTV Stream plan? The BYOD stream service is ok, but for whatever reason, even if the client equipment has a number pad or voice...

    DTV gemini

    Ok so why not just create a Google TV app that acts as a Genie client. I mean the DirecTV Stream app works pretty good, but it doesn’t show ALL the channels or view recordings right off the DVR. Osprey doesn’t have a coax port does it? So it’s all IP via Ethernet or WiFi to genie anyway right...

    DirecTV lays off hundreds of managers as cord cutting accelerates

    Costs are getting too high for everything. First thing to go is nonessential services like satellite radio and tv. Money better spent on food for survival if it comes down to it.

    TNF prime video in Guide

    Probobly because its not arm based. Anyway I found this guide. I installed DirecTV app on two of my Rokus and now I can watch most of the channels on them. I think I may turn in the receivers since I seem to get whatever I need through the app. I'll just keep the main HR-44.

    What equipment to expect?

    We had those scientific Altanta boxes. First the original ones were more like down converters. If you put the TV on ch 2,3 or 5, the channel numbers displayed on the box were all off by that many channels from the channel 4 the TV needed to be on. They had a mysterious AU button, which did...

    In a hotel, how does 41 directv channels in analog work

    The cable company in our area has about 11 or 12 huge dishes in its back fenced in lot. D&H they say on it, I think.

    In a hotel, how does 41 directv channels in analog work

    The hotel I stayed at had a oversized white dish on the roof. Could that have used with the proper lnb’s to make it receive signal stronger since the dish is bigger? If it’s not used for that, who knows what it’s there for. There was a larger tower as well and i couldn’t see that roof...

    In a hotel, how does 41 directv channels in analog work

    Yeah and I work for a company that has an office in the hospital. We needed connectivity for voice and data and at first Comcast screwed it up. They connected the eMTA modem AFTER the hospital's integrated mDTA setup, so there was no return path or digital. Took a few weeks to run hardline...

    In a hotel, how does 41 directv channels in analog work

    The hospital has thousands of tv's. Every room has them on walls and many rooms have PDI hospital flat screen TV's on adjustable arms that can be positioned over the hospital bed. These have integrated nurse call buttons and speakers in the corded remote. Some of the systems are linux based...

    In a hotel, how does 41 directv channels in analog work

    Yeah here they use Comcast and two mDTAs. Cable is split between two Vecima Terrace TC600E’s. 6 cable cards with 6 streams of decoding per card - 36 channel output. Two 1U rack mount units offer 72 analog channels. Terrace TC600E – Vecima I’m more familiar with that system from working in IT...

    In a hotel, how does 41 directv channels in analog work

    So probably something like this, minus the Harmonic NSG9000 (theres no QAM - its all analog) View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Xmts37o0AU

    In a hotel, how does 41 directv channels in analog work

    I know right, with only about a 400 MHz coax distribution.

    In a hotel, how does 41 directv channels in analog work

    I should say that one channel is just a black screen and another is static even though on the card it’s listed as a hotel info channel. There’s ghosting and fuzz, but I don’t know how they got the AR right. Cspan is letterboxed on a 16:9 display though).

    In a hotel, how does 41 directv channels in analog work

    I’m in a hotel for Labor Day weekend for a beach vacation with my family. They have channels 2-42 in analog (looks terrible). The aspect ratio looks correct but it’s washed out and fuzzy due to being analog. At check in one other guest said some of the channels had no sound. The guy said ok...

    Free XM/Sirius

    Thanks I just came here to find out why the XM is working in my car. CarPlay was lagging and crashing so I thought I’d try it while my phone was rebooting and I was surprised I got more than the preview channel.

    Streaming is so popular sirusxm launches new satellite...?

    Maybe they launch a sattelite because an older one is nearing the end of its life. Maybe there’s an issue with one and they need to replace it. I doubt they can add sattelite just for bandwidth. I doubt SXM radios are SDR tuners. They have a hard coded, fixed tuning bandwidth. In fact in my...

    Discovery Plus

    The wife is interested in this service but it really stinks they are charging for it when we already pay for the Discovery suite of Channels. Why don’t they make the $4.99 ad supported version either that for cord cutters, or FREE if you log in with a valid...
