3abn Ppv Dish should add 3ABN as a pay per view network, $100 goes on your bill every Sunday!

My take.... This topic does beat a dead horse, but here goes.... If you have an analog HD set, for example a CRT or CRT projector, go for component. The signal has to be converted from digital to analog at some point anyway, so if your set top box does not do the conversion, your TV does...

Sorry to say this, but Yes HDCP is here to stay. You will have to use the component inputs with your plasma to use the 622. The only way I know that you could work around this is to get a 211 box modded with the R5000 usb output at nextcomwireless, then output the stream using software...

It worked for me I am a former VOOMER, and I signed up for Dish Today over the phone. I got a 942 for $250 plus $5 per month, an 811 for $5 per month, and a free install. Not a bad deal. You just have to pick up the phone. Chris

My take on MPEG4 There have been rumors about this for months. Would E* start leasing 942's if they had to take them back really soon? There are a few possiblities on how this can be done. 1) There are two hardware decoders in the 942. 2) The current decoders can be flashed. 3) The...
