    Thanks for the smart as s reply, but neither one of these threads say anything about ESPNU HD it about the lack of HD channels that DTV is offering compared to other providers. Nice try on making a point though.

    DirecTV HD channels lineup

    Does anyone know when DirecTV is going to have ESPNU in HD? It seems like a few other carriers already have it available to there customers in HD, so I'm wondering why not Direct.

    why are HD channels on 70's and then again on higher numbers

    I've noticed that I get some HD channels around the 70's # and then again on the higher #'s. why is this? Does 1 have a better picture quality than the other?

    Picture quality on ESPN basketball games

    Lately I have been noticing like a white flash going through my TV while watching basketball games on ESPN, ESPN2 & Big Ten Network. These are the only channels that it does it on. I'm wondering if this is a broadcasting issue or a DTV tech issue. If anyone has any other info or has noticed...

    Wires on DirecTV box

    I just recently bought a new TV stand that has the wire management system in the back... What this is, there is a tube that travels all the way down through the back of the stand so all of your wires can go into it instead of being visible. What I'm worried about is having RCA cables and HDMI...

    ESPN's poor picture quality lately

    Has anyone else noticed that ESPN and ESPN2 picture has been flashing lately almost like a camera flash going on in the background? I thought it may be my HDMI cable going bad so I switched over to just regular SD broadcast and same thing. Hope it's not my TV. If anyone else noticed this let me know

    DIRECTV black bars on the side of pictures (letterboxing?)

    Makes sense, So then if it is not being broadcast in HD then why is the picture quality better with the "bars"than if I was to switch over to the standard definition of the same channel. It's all very confusing to me !!!! Thanks,

    HDMI Cables

    Should I replace the HDMI cables that Directv gives through the install and replace them for some of the more expensive ones that are sold at like best buy, circuit city, ETC. Will I notice any picture difference? Thanks

    DIRECTV black bars on the side of pictures (letterboxing?)

    I Have had HD for about a year now, and just bought a new Plasma TV. Why when sometimes I watch ESPN2 I get black bars on the side of the screen. Some say it means the show is not in HD just digital picture, others say because it's not being broadcast in 16:9 so the bars go there so the picture...
