    771 error

    And as someone who used to commonly frequent these forums I’m disappointed on the responses. I asked if I can disable satellite feeds or transponders and nobody seems interested in explaining to me if that’s possible. I have one satellite coming in at 49%. My guess that is the problem. I did...

    771 error

    In my opinion if I’m getting all the channels nothing is wrong and directv shouldn’t force a message on me I can’t dismiss. Almost every other message in anything tech related you can dismiss. I don’t want a hassle here for a service that I’m contemplating getting rid of. My solution is to...

    I don’t care to talk about that now. I just want the message gone. I don’t understand why it cannot be dismissed. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    771 error

    I understand that. My point is that it’s not impacting what I’m watching on tv. All I want to do is get rid of the message without the hassle and expense of calling directv. I really dislike the service since ATT purchased. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I don’t want to do anything. I’m hanging onto directv by a thread. One day soon I’ll go to streaming. For now I just want the annoying message to go away. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Downgrading from Choice

    I’m realizing that I don’t watch 99% of what I’m paying for. My question is, do the two lower packages include local sports networks? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Hi everyone. I have been getting this message a lot lately. All my channels come in fine. I do see one satellite very weak but from what I’ve read it’s barely used for anything anymore. I guess it carries some SD channels. Anyways. I just don’t want this intrusive message showing constantly. Is...

    Never mind. I figured out you need the unit powered on to see the menu option. Thanks.

    New Guide UI now rolling out (plus HDR support!)

    I did but I can’t seem to change how many episodes to keep and whether to record only new or all. Only place I’ve seen is to drill down under manage recordings.

    New Guide UI now rolling out (plus HDR support!)

    Ok. Series options. Am I missing something or is there not a way to adjust now when reviewing the recording in the play list? It seems I have to go back to the UI and find the program in “manage recording” to make any adjustments despite the fact I already have it highlighted in the playlist...

    New Guide UI now rolling out (plus HDR support!)

    Two complaints with this. 1- I can no longer easily see the air date in the playlist. I now have to press info to get it. This extra step is really annoying. 2- the animated scrolling adds an unnecessary lag when paging through the playlist. Yes it’s pretty but I just want to find a program...

    Can you still "move" to NYC and get the east networks?

    A long time ago I "moved" to NYC and was able to get NBCE, ABCE, etc. Is this still possible? I recall it was a simple as calling up and asking the service address be updated. Any info or advice is appreciated.

    The Weather Channel....is BACK!

    I think everyone is missing the larger point here. These programming disputes and the rising costs remain a large issue for all providers. In most cases the programming is valuable and it can be difficult to justify being without the channel for any extended period of time. In this case I...

    The Weather Channel....is BACK!

    If the weather channel is going to congress claiming they provide the same vital service as a utiltity then perhaps it should be regulated as a utility --- Hrmmmm
