Thanks. That info is helpful (or will be once I take a closer look at what nodes I have and where). But what I am most curious about is whether having 6 feet of RG6 (or maybe even rg59?) connected to whatever it is the installers are using will work. All of the cable is easy to replace except...

I had a Hopper and Joey set up yesterday. They ran new cable on the outside of my house. This was OK, as we were able to enter the house with the air conditioner piping hole and everything was hidden well. But to get to my upstairs rooms, where I may want to add some joeys, I would have to...

I use the DishNetwork wifi adapter. On occasion my wifi signal drops out for a second. After this happens, the Hopper does not reconnect to my wifi. I have to manually re-select the router in the Hopper's broadband menu and reenter the password. (And yes, I know the wifi signal problem is...

While not the biggest deal in the world, I'm sure there are many like me who rely on their DVR to record their shows. I'm sure that for the few who monitor dish network news and participate in regular conversation on a forum like this one were on top of the situation. I'd imagine that most...

Agreed. "Almost every" is not the same as "every". It is just short of it.

LOL! No. I'm glad D* has new channels. I want them to get as many as they can. Either this will pressure E* to do the same, or I have a better option I can switch to. Either way, improvements at D* are better for me than if D*'s HD lineup were static. I was just offering a suggesting...

I guess I would still say that "almost every week" is almost "every week. Regardless, I would also say that one week out of six is neither every week nor almost every week.

The post in question was made on 9/30, so channels added on 9/26 do not count. The average since that prediction was made is 5.8, with only one week out of 6 being in the 10-15 range.

Almost every week and every week are not close to each other? They are almost the same. That is what almost means. And no, I did not forget to quote other things from you. I brought up the claim I wanted to discuss.

So all non-premium HD channels at D* have to purchased as a package, just like the all the non-premium HD channels at E*, including Voom. Or are you claiming that I could pick and choose only the HD channels I wanted at D*? Could I, for example, get SciFi and Discovery, but not Food or...

Indeed. Also "10-15". Pardon my paraphrasing.

The content is NOT exactly the same. The visuals are a part of the content. Change the visuals, you change the content. Movies in HD are far closer to the original than the same movie in SD. I won't watch movies in SD on TV (though I will watch upscaled DVD's). The content is changed too...

Who said it was not a yes or no question? If you would just read what people say, you would not have this confusion. Why do I "infer" the OP is trying to draw a conclusion about content? Because he says so. Here is the question, with the the next sentence included. "Would you folks...

:eureka I remember a time when a certain someone was running around the E* forums declaring D* would be adding 10/week, every week.

Er....just like all the other non-premium HD channels. The fact is, there are very few channels you can get outside of a package.

Good lord. I'm going to use an example that I think you can understand. Consider a show, created to be shown in HD, about the art of painting Because this show was created for HD, it shows very detailed images of the brush strokes. The HD film work is a part of the content. It becomes a...

I'm going to post the question to you, yet again, in the futile hope you will actually read it. "Would you folks that really like Voom, still watch the channels if they were only in SD?" Note that the word "content" is not in the question. If I answer "no", does that mean the I don't like...

Exactly right. Asking whether a person would watch a given HD channel if it were in SD does not get you information about the quality of the programming on that channel.

To be clear, people who complain about the programming they pay for in forum dedicated to such discussions have no life. People who complain about people complaining about their programming have.....what exactly?

Of the new HD channels, I'd probably only watch Sci-Fi. I guess I watch Monk a few times/year, so USA would be number 2 for me.

It seems that everyone except you understood the problem with the question and answered accordingly. Notice that no one answered with just a "yes or no". Hell, the sentence of mine you bolded and accepted as an answer did not address the OP question at all, but rather addressed the issue of...

Paranoid? No. I just READ the posts I respond to. He asks if we would watch Voom if it were in SD, as says he is asking because he wants to know if we watch because the content is good. Because the question does not directly apply to what he says he is wondering about, I answered his...

For God's sake. If I answered "no", he would take that to mean it was a problem with Voom content. His conclusion would be wrong. Read that over and over until you understand it. Hell, reading any of my posts before responding to them would have cleared things up for you. I answer...

Not all demos do are limited by time. Some are limited by scale. There are just 5 songs in this demo. I'd expect the demo would let me play each several times. But no biggie. I haven't decided yet if I will buy this. My wife is too busy to play games now, my son is perfectly happy...
