    New OTA adapter

    Just got off the phone with DirecTV.. Was in DirecTV telephone hell, until I got someone at tech support who knew what I was talking about. They are sending me one via UPS, no charge, but I have to sign for it. And yes, I have a local Fox channel that is in dispute with Nexstar for the last...

    Genie menus reversed, can't read text.

    I have it on my genie client and my der receivers. Rebooting fixes it, but it comes right back. Directv said it’s a known issue? Has to be due to software update because I have had new GUI for about a week.

    Genie menus reversed, can't read text.

    I don’t care about color scheme on new GUI as much as not being able to read text on any menus, unless it’s highlighted. That can’t be a GUI that’s acceptable? (See attachments.) If I reboot it’s ok, albeit new GUI, but then shortly after it goes back to shown on attachment.

    Genie menus reversed, can't read text.

    This was probably addressed in the new GUI forum, but a quick glance there I couldn't find the answer. If anyone has more information than I got from DirecTV rep. On the GUI "upgrade" I just got on my 4K Genie, the menus, list guide etc., the colors are reversed so that there is white/gray...

    Getting upgraded equipment, advice?

    I have been with DirecTV for 2 years. I currently have 3 - H25's and 2-HR24's. Called retention to get my bill lowered and I am keeping the 2-HR24's. They are coming out Monday at no charge, to add a genie DVR, and replacing the 2-H25's with genie clients. Was it best to upgrade to the 2...

    Lag when controlling DVR thru whole house HD receiver?

    I have 2-DVR's, and 3-HD receivers. When I am in front of DVR box controlling it, everything works great.. NO lag on fast forward, skip, play etc. When I try and control the DVR through an HD receiver box via whole house in another room, the lag is almost unuseable. The picture and...

    Bill Problem, DirecTV rep tells me there was a "glitch" on everyones bills that were dated 12/26?, C

    My comment was more "tongue in cheek" rather than anger since it sort of got taken care of except for not keeping my money for 2 months, but how could EVERYONE's 12/26/12 bill be affected?, (reps words not mine) and only to DirecTV's benefit?

    Bill Problem, DirecTV rep tells me there was a "glitch" on everyones bills that were dated 12/26?, C

    I have been a DirecTV (new sub) since September. My bill went from $64.98 to $151.22 !! Of course the "glitch" is never in the customers favor. They charged me the $45 for the free HBO/Sho that I still have coming until 1/26/11 and they left off my $31 in credits and my $10 HD access...

    Will an AM21N improve my local network picture?

    I just recently switched to DirecTV from Dish. I had always watched my locals via a small inside antennae hooke up to my Dish DVR on my 73" Mits DLP., and even more so on a new projection setup. I think HD PQ via DirecTV is better than on Dish IMO, but while watching football on my fox via...

    Switching to Directv after 16 years at Dish. Questions about whole house, need internet connections

    Does this mean Directv receiver has the "option" to automatically choose the resolution of the input or upconvert everything to 1080i, whereas Dish upconverts everything to 1080i?

    Switching to Directv after 16 years at Dish. Questions about whole house, need internet connections

    I have got alot of help in the Dish network forums over the last 16 years, but I am moving to a new house and the deals with DirecTV, as well as the free Sunday Ticket for new subs are too good to pass up. I am going with the Costco deal, with 2-HD dvr's receivers, and 3-HD receivers, and...

    More 61.5 HD Migrations Coming...

    I got my upgrade to western arc, from 61.5/110/119 yesterday.. Lo and behold, this tech was able to get 129 !! (2 techs on previous visits for a bad LNB etc., said I had no 129 LOS. I have 2 - 622 receivers. Weird thing was, after the new dish installed, the 622 receiver downstairs worked...

    More 61.5 HD Migrations Coming...

    I have the Top 200 w/HD, and lost those channels today, and called them this evening. They first told me I had 129 so it shouldn't be an issue (I don't, no line of sight without mounting dish on the roof 2-story) Then I was told if I didn't have line of sight for 129 that there was nothing...

    No more HD Distant Networks?

    Call left on my answerine machine said my CBS-HD feed would end at midnight on 1/12/11, but I could call in and still get digital. CBS-HD Chicago still showing 7pm 1/15/11. Maybe they will forget to turn it off. :)

    Speculation on 2011 HD

    Haven't seen and 3D ESPN content etc., but 3D-Movies on demand would rock. I have a 72" Mits 3D and have been buying 3D- Blurays. Would rather spend the VOD fee. Sports lead the way with adopting HD programming, and I hope it does the same with 3D.

    HDMI distribution--what is DISH planning for the near future?

    Just bought the HDMI over CAT5e box from monoprice (always on backorder). Ran a dual run of 100-ft CAT5e thru my crawl space and used a wall plates that had both 2-CAT5e connectors and an RG6 connector. Works flawlessly. Spent about $60 for everything. Ended up having to buy an UHF to IR...

    FedEx

    They are seeing "alot" of those primarily because those are the "most" dropped off prepaid label items. So when they see Dish Network plastered all over the box it sticks out in their minds.

    3D

    I searched but didn't find anything. Is DISH going to offer any 3D programming, ala ESPN 3D etc. like Directv?

    DISH HD Migration off of 61.5

    I have 110/119/61.5 2-dish setup. Tried to get 129 last fall, but couldn't get line of site. Dish still thinks I have 129, even though the work order was cancelled. Will I be able to swap out the 61.5 dish and have LOS with 72.7, 77 since it is not much of an orbital change. It looks like...
