    Price increase greetings from the Deathstar

    I canceled service today. Offered $50 off for a year but I declined.

    Price increase greetings from the Deathstar

    Which is exactly why it makes little sense to me to keep paying for Directv 4K.

    Price increase greetings from the Deathstar

    I get my RSN from YouTube.tv. I got in at $35 per month just before the increase to $40. It's a great deal for me as it includes The Golf Channel. To get the Golf Channel in Directv Now I would need the Go Big package at $65; $30 more for just that one channel in my case. I lowered my...

    Adding a C61K not purchased from Direct.

    If I purchase a C61K from Solid Signal to replace one standard mini, and they activate it for me... will Directv lock me into a new contract because of the equipment change? I currently have a HR54, one C61K, and one standard mini. Edit: This FAQ from Solid Signal seems to answer my question...

    Directv to air Olympics in 4K on 106.

    Select package is all that is required. It was an ATT support forum post by an ATT representative that incorrectly reported the Ultimate requirement.

    DirecTV HLG HDR

    It is possible that the tx-nr656 does not yet support HLG. Try bypassing the Onyko and connect directly to the LG.

    Directv to air Olympics in 4K on 106.

    Atmos audio was a bust for the opening ceremony rebroadcast. At least until I disconnected my center channel speaker and turned up the volume to reference level. Otherwise all you can hear are the NBC talking heads.

    Directv to air Olympics in 4K on 106.

    4K (down converted from 8K feeds), HLG HDR, and Atmos. I hope that Directv is going to include all that NBC is making available. Blogs | Sports Video Group “We are taking the 8K feeds with HDR from NHK and downconverting them to 4K in the HLG [format]. We have a couple of circuits going home...

    Directv to air Olympics in 4K on 106.

    I just called Directv Customer Support. The representative told me there is no Ultimate Package requirement. I told him about the ATT Customer Support post to the ATT Forum and he said it was an error. It is being escalated to correct it.

    Upcoming Events in 4K

    What's with the redirect to a viglink Mayfair Shopping Ad? Getting paid for Ad redirects? Removed bad link.

    Directv to air Olympics in 4K on 106.

    But the Ultimate package is required. I would rather it be Pay Per View than have to upgrade my package.

    Next Generation DTV NOW Coming This Spring

    Why are there posts regarding satellite receivers in this Directv Now thread? I am interested in what might be coming next for Directv Now, not trouble shooting satellite and on demand issues.

    Getting 4K HDR

    If your TV reports that it is receiving HLG then you are getting Directv HLG. My 2017 LG OLED also reports receiving HLG for channels 104 and 106. Directv is not sending HDR10. It is HLG. I believe the 2017 Vizio TVs received an update to support HLG. My LG switches to a HDR picture mode...
