    Directv stream 4k live channels added

    Thanks on the work-around options for the FOX 4K events... I did not think of going to their App..... The White Sox 4K games are a loss I guess, although one of the games this week is on Ch. 106 so we get it on Stream... Sort of ironic given this Sunday's game was lost since it was on 107.

    Directv stream 4k live channels added

    Thanks, did not know..... I do see a PR issue when higher profile events, like some simultaneous World Cup games get the overflow channels 107 and 108. But yeah, I know that's way in the future.

    Directv stream 4k live channels added

    This past weekend there were live 4K sports on DTV Satellite chs. 107 & 108.... but DTV Stream did not get them because the 4K channels on Stream stop at Channel 106. Is this a technical glitch that the Stream engineers need to fix ?

    DirecTV Latin America forced to walk away from its Venezuela uplink facility

    It appears that DirecTV was the main, if not the only, source for TV news and entertainment for the Presidential Palace and for the government buildings, in addition to serving most of the population basically for free. El Nuevo Herald has been reporting that they are now basically disconnected...

    DirecTV Latin America forced to walk away from its Venezuela uplink facility

    Streaming ? Are you kidding ? In Venezuela most homes are lucky if they have electricity for more than a couple of hours a day .... and running water. Millions have fled to neighboring countries as refugees. Satellite TV was government price-capped at about 50 cents per month. DTV was...

    The OFFICIAL DISH / HBO Thread

    He's a moron because you do not like his humor ? Bill Maher is the main reason I subscribe to HBO. Nothing to do with politics. Just a smart, well-rounded, well-produced show.
