I was looking into getting a Roku player to use to be able to watch MLB Extra innings, and as I understand it you subscribe to MLB online then hook the Roku player to your internet connection and then into your TV you can get the games on your TV. Have any of you used this method to get MLB...

Yes Digi I checked the website and it says New Orleans has HD locals, plus Fox (ch 8) which was listed as SD on the uplink a few weeks back is also listed as HD avaible so that uplink was either a typo are since that uplink they reached an agreement with the local Fox network. Now I have mu...

Digi, have you heard if the New Orleans Fox Channel (ch 8) will be HD or SD, because last week when they were uplinked, NBC, CBS, and ABC channels said MPEG4 HD, but the Fox channel said MPEG4 SD. We were hoping that was a typo, but have you been able to find out if we will get Fox in HD, or SD...

This weeks uplink report should be very interesting, that is assuming they start upllinking Ciel 2 on Wednesday

That brings up a question I have about the conversion to digital. When the locals go to all digital and shut off the Analog, will that give them more power to use to transmit the digital signal? What I am asking is since many stations have been transmitting both analog and digital for awhile...

Hey DBSorgie, I noticed on your new list you had early 2009 next to New Orleans. Have you seen something that says this is the case, because I have been waiting for the New Orleans HD locals for 2 years now, and I hadn't seen anything saying we would be getting them in early 2009. Man I hope you...

Digi, since they are puting the Lafayette, La. HD locals on Ciel 2 at 129 do you think they will put the New Orleans HD locals, whenever they do provide them, on 129 also? I thought in the past you said they would probably be on 61.5. I hope they put them on 129 because then I won't need to get...

I have a locals related question I hope someone on the forum can answer. I currently can't get my locals over ther air, (and of course Dish doesn't carry them) because I live a little too far from the transmission tower. My question is when they switch to digital, will I like have a better...

So if they are putting CSTNO HD on 129 is that a good sign that we might get the New Orleans HD locals soon, and that they will be on a 129 spotbeam instead of 61.5?

Digi have you heard any update on when dish will carry the New Orleans HD locals?

Can I use a sling box to send my Dish HD signal from my receiver in the living room on the first floor of my house to my second HD TV in the second floor bedroom, and can it be done wirelessly?

Scott what about our local HD channels? As I understand it once dish gives New Orleans its HD locals they will be on a 61.5 spotbeam, so if that happens, and I really don't want a wing dish, then wouldn't I have to go to EA to get everything I get now (A250) plus my HD locals?

Scott do you have any idea how long before it will be available to existing customers? Are we looking at a couple months or will it be more like 6 months to a year or God forbid longer. And please no one answer with the infamous it will be available to existing subs "SOON"

Yes that is it thanks

I need to buy some HDMI cables. I remeber a company many of you guys recomended on the forum, but I can't remeber the name. All I remember is that it satarted with an "M" Micro something I think. Can someone shoot me they name of the company. Thanks
