    IPTV in Clarksville, TN

    Clarksville Department of Electricity provides cable and internet services. It's nice having an alternative. CDE has supplied the town with fiber optics. The picture is clear. I have basically the same package as I did with charter, and I save $30 a month 128.00 vs. 100.00. The interne is 10...

    Why are some charter HD channels not available in my area

    I know that there are more HD channels that I could get, but they are scrambled. I emailed charter about this, but they never answered my question. They just tolme me they are not available. Don't I pay the same price as everyone else?:confused:

    Is it possible to record digital OTA video?

    Is it possible to record digital over the air tv signals using a regular vcr or dvd recorder? I tried this today with a dvd recorder, but I could not get a signal. I can use FireWire devices. I have two ports. I recently discovered these. What are the cheapest firewire devices out there?

    OTA HD/DTV questions

    When I run my microwave, my digital TV goes out. Is there a way to prevent this? What is DTV link for? Is cable wire the best thing to get OTA HD? I didn't think that was possible, but I guess I was wrong, because my TV picks up both 720p and 1080i, and 420p OTA. Would I be better off...

    OTA Questions: Does digital provide a stronger signal than analog?

    I am thinking about upgrading my analog bunny ears (electrical) to HD/Digital bunny ears antenna. Currently I get about three channels clearly. Would a digital antenna get better reception than analog, when traveling the same distance?

    Thinking about cancelling

    I have had dishnetwork come to my appartment 4-5 times because of shotty installation work. The manager explicitly explained how he wanted it installed. Also, they did not place a pad under the non-pentrating roof mount. I told DN to tell the tech. to call me the day before. They did not, and so...

    I am using a HDMI to HDMI cable with a ViP 211 and and RCA Scenium DLP TV. I can get signal from the composite imputs that run into my DVD recorder. I thought the cable was bad, so I exchanged it at Wal-mart, but it's still not working. Am I doing something wrong? Or could either my TV or...

    525p: Playstation 2 option

    I have recently bought a new game for the PS2, and it allows for progressive scan. My TV can handle this, but I get no signal when I try it, so it reverts back to the orginal 489i in 15s. Does anybody here use the PS2?:rolleyes:

    Sattelite aloud on rental properties?

    If I understand this, it means that a landlord can not band satellite as long as they abide by certain guidelines?:tux: http://www.dishnetwork.com/downloads/pdf/getdish/what_is/LLP_Release_Form.pdf

    Will my 811 work at my friends house who has HDTV and using DN?

    I have a friend who has a high def. TV, and uses DN. He may have a Super Bowl party at his house, and I was wondering if I could simply hook up my 811 reciever since he did not get one. Also, does DN offer the Super Bowl on pay-per-view. He can't get local channels well, and I can't get them...

    Second thoughts about DN: slimeballs

    I had to personally call in and cancel the free promo for HBO, Showtime and cinamax channels! They were going to charge me automatically when it expired.. Those pricks. I made them take it off today! What makes them think they can do that! I never asked for any of those channels, and I assumed...

    Dual Layer DVD's

    I saw a Dual Layer (DL-DVD) today at Wally World. (Walmart). It had nearly 10 gigs. I was wondering if this kind of DVD would be good for recording HD on DVD's. I've heard from others hear that many DVD recorders can't do HD very well. My CyberHome DVR-1200 has componant imputs for HD...

    Why no HD locals through my dish?

    I get local channels with my subscription, but not HD locals. I live in a white area and can not get OTA broadcasts. So why does DN not offer these channels as well through thier 110 Satellite?:cool: I may email them and ask.

    Do I need to buy an antenna? My TV has a tuner

    My TV gets both digital and HDTV signals (integrated tuner). Do I need to buy a special antenna? Or can I get the HD and digital broadcast with a regular antenna. I am renting a house that has an outside antenna just waiting to be used.

    Will DishNetwork add more HD channels to the 110?

    I have to pay for a 2nd sat. to get voom or cbsHD. Someone suggested I add local channels, but I get them already with 110 (cheapper way to get voom). I feel jipped that I asked for HD, and they did not put in the right satellite installation when they came 2 weeks ago.:mad:
