    DIRECTV to Offer FREE MLB Extra Innings!

    It reads, like previous Sunday Ticket offers, that it's for all customers. But it's likely for new customers only.

    DIRECTV changing local channels in OHIO

    They just changed them. I would have complained if I lost HD.

    DIRECTV changing local channels in OHIO

    My locals were switched back today from Lansing to Grand Rapids. It was clearly a glitch on Directv's end.

    DIRECTV changing local channels in OHIO

    I "moved" to a zip code that was mostly in the Lansing DMA, but the address was in the Grand Rapids DMA so I was getting Grand Rapids then I just checked it today when I got home from a vacation and I now have the Lansing locals. Not a huge issue for me because the channels are HD (they became...

    DIRECTV commits to Ultra-HDTV

    I'd just like if the channels that are broadcasting now would just improve their video quality. Comparing a baseball game broadcast on YES and most other networks is like night and day. When you remove all of the ESPN clutter their picture can range anywhere from great to miserable. It's just...

    MLB 2012 Postseason

    Every single Tigers win since 2005 has been despite Leyland. He's absolutely dreadful. Valverde's 2011 season where he was "perfect" in save opportunities may have been the biggest fluke in baseball history. Just so tired of Leyland's "loyalty" to players who have no business losing games.

    771 A

    I'm pretty sure I had this error code and issue at my last apartment. The flat coax in my window coming from the satellite was worn through. I replaced it and the error went away.

    Coming back to Satellite and need help deciding

    Yes but if you want to watch professional sports on those channels you will need the out-of-market package for the particular sport/league you want to watch.

    Bring us EPIX!!!!!

    Epix has been showing more and more live boxing from Europe that is only available in the US on Epix. That's the only reason I want the channel.

    How would you change the TV networks' sports departments?

    Abolish score/news tickers during live broadcasts of games Stop with the over-Twitterfication of broadcasts Allow any person the ability to view every pro/college game they want no matter their location either with satellite or internet broadcast Abolish all blackouts of replays, news, or...

    extra inning question

    I believe if the OP subscribes to Sports Pack he will be OK (pretty sure it includes your local RSN). In some markets to see your team you need Sports Pack, for example now I'm in northern Indiana which is Detroit Tigers territory but none of the base packages come with Fox Sports Detroit, and...

    MLB Extra Inning Feeds

    For Directv: As best I understand all feeds that can be remapped are remapped (FSDetroit, YES, CSN Bay Area, Etc.), and all that aren't come from MLB (Rogers Sportsnet, CSN Philadelphia, Etc).

    Why is no one watching NBC's Thursday lineup?

    The Office has been unbearable for about 4 years now. Community is hit-or-miss. Haven't got into anything else on NBC on any night, not just Thursday.

    Difference between HR34 and HR24

    HR34 has picture-in-picture.

    Is there any way to...

    I just hit the play button and it shows up for me (HR22-100). As far as number 2 I don't know but it's definitely something I'd like to know.

    New Customers : Remember to Cancel NFL Sunday Ticket!

    Also remember to watch your bills closely. Just because you call and cancel doesn't mean it will actually get cancelled. I'm not the first, and surely not the last person who had to call Directv more than 1 time to get an auto-renew cancelled.

    Potential new DirecTV customer Q: Is getting the Home Media Center and a HD DVR overkill?

    i have 2 HD-DVRs. It's nice to have the added features and after you pay the additional fee up front it's not going to cost you any more per month than what a standard HD receiver would cost (as I understand it).

    DVD Recording issues with New HD Guide

    DVD recorders only output 1080p as an upscaling feature to DVDs. None of the new DVD recorders offer inputs better than s-video. I'd love a Blu-Ray recorder with component inputs and a built in hard drive but these don't exist in North America. The market for standalone recorders isn't huge...

    Fox Deportes (624) leaving sportspack 1/11/12

    A bunch of the Top Rank Live boxing shows are only on Fox Deportes. This is disappointing. :(

    This is why MLB restrictions stink . . .

    I blame both of them. MLB hates their own fans. They make asinine broadcasting decisions.

    Detroit locals in Memphis??

    Was just checking on the "other" satellite forum and they have an excel spreadsheet with local channel transponders lists. They list the Detroit HD locals on 103s Transponder 15. I know Detroit locals are on spotbeam but I'm getting a signal strength of 84 on this transponder in Memphis, TN...
