    Downconvert HD instead of crappy SD

    I fully appreciate that Dish, Direct, Comcast and other providers have a limited bandwidth with which to pool all of their content on but other than that and forcing people to pay for upgrading to HD packages, why don't providers cut down on all the duplication of signal and simply downconvert...

    Sharks fans SOL AGAIN!

    My package pre-dates the Turbo HD package and the customer service rep said that my package should have the RSN HD but my zip code disqualifies me from getting it. If I lived 5 miles east or west of where I currently live I could get it, they said! That's why I'm pissed!

    Sharks fans SOL AGAIN!

    That's the whole point of paying for a service, isn't it? So I don't have to leave the comfort of my own home to enjoy my favorite sports team! And as stated above Dish DOES carry the channel, but won't allow me to have it because of zip code stipulations, whatever the hell that is! And your a...

    Sharks fans SOL AGAIN!

    I just got off the phone after reaming out the CS idiot who told me the only reason I don't get CSNBA-HD is because I don't live in an available zip code to qualify for it!!!!! WTF!!!! My father lives 6 miles form my house and he can get it, BUT NOT ME!! I literally live 3 miles from Shark's...

    Sharks fans SOL AGAIN!

    Regardless, because of the nature of the Total HD package, any HD channel available through Dish Network should be made available on my package. I signed a 2 year agreement stating that I would get every HD channel available on Dish Network (besides Premium Movie channels) and if Dish adds...

    Sharks fans SOL AGAIN!

    Thanks, but 629 is blacked out in San Jose because CSN Bay Area has the rights to ALL Sharks home games!

    Sharks fans SOL AGAIN!

    419 is for those that subscribe to the regular packages, I subscribe to HD Only package. 419 is NOT an HD channel, which is why I am pissed off!

    Sharks fans SOL AGAIN!

    For the second season running Dish has dropped the ball on aquiring CSN-HD leaving Bay Area customers out in the cold when it comes to Sharks home games. Does DirecTV carry CSN-HD Bay Area cause I'm quite tempted to switch if they do. All Dish customer service was able to give me was a lame...

    Dish and NHL-What's the problem?

    It's almost like early adopter angst! Not enough HDTV penetration in the market for dish to be as concerned as they should be, and those of us who jumped onboard "early" shoulder the responsability of puting the screws to Dish to support channels we want! I've done this dance before. It's OLD...

    Dish and NHL-What's the problem?

    I attempted to watch the Sharks game 7 on Tuesday night on Versus HD but it was blacked out, of course! I called Dish and was told that the Sharks were responsible for the blackout and that Dish could do nothing about it! This blackout Bullsh!t agrivates the piss put of me, and Dish pointing the...

    Dish and NHL-What's the problem?

    I live in San Jose and would love to watch ALL of the Sharks games in HD, but 2 factors are stacking against me: (1) I have the HD stand alone pack and (2) the Sharks seem to have made a deal with Comcast to broadcast MOST of their games in HD through CSN, effectivly screwing me out of see most...

    when will dish fix HDMI on the 612?

    Melony, just as romans8:28 stated, if the input is available on your HDTV, use the 612's component video output and your problem will go away!

    when will dish fix HDMI on the 612?

    I explored this issue since receiving (2) 612's back in February and have used Component video to handle all signals with them since then. And since we can't expect 1080p signals from any service provider anytime soon, component will be just fine for me! I still keep in contact with Dish...
