Not totally disagreeing ;-) at this point I'm being stubborn perhaps. In all seriousness I may go with direct TV though. Also thinking to make it simple and use the main box in my bedroom which has dual outputs and the thin client in my main room. The only thing I don't know much about is how...

True but I wanted to put this in my bedroom which is where the client will be. I thought since no one will be watching the bedroom TV it makes sense otherwise won't what's being place shifted have to be what's displayed on the TV? Or is there a way to change internal tuner to not screw up if...

Well I already invested in the vulkano and if I go with dtv there isn't a sling option with the genie. Plus I'm not one for combo devices. I've used sling recently and prefer my vulkano. The 2 adapters are like a 50ish investment so that part isn't an issue. Thinking that expense is still better...

So here is the deal. I just got a Vulkano placeshifter. Its like a sling box. I want to connect my tv in my bedroom but if I switch to dish and use the clients they dont have both component and hdmi out like my current cable box that I have (uverse). So, Here is what I am thinking. Id...

I'm thinking about going dish. I just purchased a vulkano lava because I didn't know if I was going dish or dtv and I didn't want it tied into a single device. I am on uverse. I can get good quality at 750ish on up. I'm thinking about upping my internet to see if that helps but generally its...

Just got the monsoon vulkano lava and an extremely happy with it. I didn't want to rely on my provider in case I switch so I went with that vs sling. Great quality both in equipment and picture. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2

So at the moment I'm using uverse. Got the vulkano connected. Love the interface. Hooked it up wireless are the moment and surprisingly the quality is excellent. I also like that I can store on that separately and move shows to my tablet for offline viewing. Back to the converter though I think...

I had a 37" Panasonic LCD, and just recently upgraded to a 42". Basically have the setup the same, HDMI 1 is the only connection I am using. But, I would like to NOT have to manually turn on my Uverse box, Id prefer to just turn on the TV and be ready to watch. Also, I am just about to...

Hmmm now I'm thinking. I don't think the client fee is a big deal but 150 vs 50 and 24 so were talking 125 more overall. Still on uverse for 2ish months then contract is done. At that point I can evaluate I'd its worth it and give the new hopper time to hit the public. If I like the vulkano ill...

I just read this. And....... yesterday ordered my vulkano lava, go figure. But the more I'm reading the more I think ill be happy with it as a sling alternative. Its got storage to save and move to my galaxy tab or Droid phone. Is there a fee per device with dishs sling? I thought 12.99 per...

Jcran. Thanks my Michigan friend. Totally get it. Didn't know what c31 was. Now I get it. Do lastly do they charge per client, per TV.....if I were to get one strictly for my place shifter? Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2

So do u have ur sling connected to your main box? Can u explain how its all connected and what the dongle is? Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2

Maybe use an extra client and get a component to HDMI converter seems to be one solution. The other may be to just keep uverse as is but in dying to switch. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2

I will look into the converter. I was thinking perhaps such a thing exists. I don't use apple. Don't wanna use sling. I like to go against the grain and I like that when I cannot monsoon they answer. Free tech support, cheaper app, wireless, 150 bux. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2

Great idea in regards to the extra Joey. The only hitch is the vulkano only has component inputs. I just ordered the vulkano and liked the lower priced per device monsoon product but not a deal breaker. Hmmmm Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2
