I do not have any problems with the transfer. It took time for HD, but was done succesfully at the end.

my 612 has signal strength aroung the same level. My signal quality is very good. For a channel that is bad, got to menu->6>1>1 and look at the strength for that particular transponder.

The problem with compression is the latency. To compress a video into MPEG2/4 at the box and decompress the video back at the TV2 takes time. If you change the channel in TV2, it takes some time before the channel changes. Correct me if i am wrong on this. Copy Protection: "Content owners...

I agree to what you said. But the real problem with DLNA is the speed of data on home network. To transmit HD without compression, the speed must be in excess of 500MB. Untill now no network was able to reach that speed. Homeplug or wireless. It will take some more time, at least 2 years.

DLNA soon? I am not sure about it. I heard from some one internal that All vip models have the hardware capable of doing dual HD. They do not want to put 2nd HDMI out which would be limited in length to 20 feet using HDMI cable. Then HDMI extenders must be used which are expensive. Imagine...

Echostar partner Frontier wins E block airwaves NEW YORK, March 20 (Reuters) - Frontier Wireless, a partner of U.S. satellite television company EchoStar, has won wireless airwaves in the "E" block spectrum auction covering almost all of the United States, the Federal Communications Commission...

Right now, the speed is increasing and it is at altitude of around 16000 miles. What is the max and min altitude this bird is going.

It wont be exactly the same size. it would be around 22 x 28. Just a speculation. Slighly smaller. I heard it would be in between 500+ and 1000.2

I hope eastern arc comes very fast, so that people on the east wont have to put 2 dishes. I heard this eastern arc dish would be approximately the same size as 500+.

Probably they are trying to create another 3 set of satellites. As some one mentioned you need more than 2 satellites to make an arc. Just like they have 110, 119 and 129 using one dish, they are creating another 3 satelites to use the similar type of dish. two of them would obviusly be...

Can dish create a 3 satellite system by collaborating with DTV (77,72.5 and 61.5), so that they can use modified 1000.2 dish.

I am from india and people in india have to pay only 300rs month. which is 7.5$. Its not HD but a lot of channels for very less price. Here I pay around 100$ for same service although different channels.

People in india wont be able to receive dish. Why stupid discussion about call center people watching international channels.

Eastern Arc??? What is this eastern arc??? I checked a link couple of days before that it will be group of 3 satellites. But dish does not own any other location other than 61.5. I was not able to find that particular link again. But could not find it again.
