    NFL Red Zone Channel

    I got Red Zone after talking to two persons. The guy from retention tried first to bity ST, but I said I already got burned wuth MLB package and mentioned that Dish has it in Sports pack. So after waiting for 10 min, he turned it on. I can't pay $320 after throwing money for baseball which I am...

    Not having the MLB Network probably isn't hurting Dish much

    Myself, like most other baseball fans, watching live games in prime time. So this report is somewhat worthless.

    MLB Package

    Got it today for the first time, 6 payments for $22/month ($32 - $5 discount for Starz - $5 discount for Showtime for six months). MLB.com offer helped to get this one. Go Brewers:D

    DIRECTV to Launch ESPN 3D to Millions of Customers Nationwide

    3D is not for me, constant headache, I will not be suprised if we'll hear some links to brain tumors later. 3D = SD on steroids. That said, I am not against it, if somebody wants it and somebody wants to provide it - so be it. I'll just pass:-)

    vip722, TV2 (IR control?)

    Look for Next Generation remote extender (~$35). There is no better product to accompish your goal. I use it with Harmony remote in the basement home theater to control all equipment upstairs.

    HD DVR causing TV to turn off?

    It is your TV and not DVR. My TV (Mitsubishi DLP) likes to turn itself off very often:mad:. It is a manufacturer defect and apparenty they can't fix it. So check your TV manufacturer website and/or Google your TV model with turns off

    DIRECTV Now the Exclusive Satellite TV Provider of RTVi Russian Television Network

    Both D* and E* should close their Russian programming. Because it costs too much and the choices are very limited. Who are interested in broad Russian TV selection should look for the online service Webtelek.com, $15/month for about 70 channels.

    Good deal NFL-ST

    I cancelled Sunday ticket three weeks ago, the guy offered some deal at that time, but he couldn't convince me. Now, two days ago got a bill, and thre was a line for Superfan $16.xx for 1 of 6 payments. So I called D* and they said that it was not cancelled. The guy offered $24.99 for 6 months +...

    Are there ANY former E* users that have switched to D*?

    OK, dual tuners, so what. For me it doesn't matter, my all three TVs are HD, why do I need a second SD feed? With Dish I had 1 HD DVR and used it with the projector (via HDMI) and HDTV (via component. It worked. With DirecTV I took two HD DVRS and now can watch two independent programs in HD...

    DirecTV does not support multi room DVR functionality DISH does

    :rolleyes: According to your info D* doesn't need to do anything. You can have a second HD DVR for just extra $5/month. So you will have 4 tuners for 2 HDTVs and can watch two independent programs in HD for less. I am glad I switched and ordered a second HD DVR from D*. With E* it was more...

    NL CENTRAL

    Although, having CC last year was a fun, and Brewers will miss him, I think that they will be overall a better team: one more year of experience under the belt, playoff feelings, better coach, Ben Sheets is a good player, but Brewers never had 100% from him because of all his injuries. Go...

    The White House wants your opinion on The DTV Delay ACT Bill

    I will not send my comments. The whole delay was initiated by Obama. So what is the point. He got the bill he wanted. And all these messages are just wasted keyboard clicks. The same will be true for the comments about the stimulus. Even if all 200 mln. opposed it will send a message it will...

    Signed up for Dtv yesterday, canceled today :(

    All you needed to is just to be sure that it was written in there notes, so just call them ans ask to read notes. If it is written, then they will deliver. At least it happened to me, when they gave me a partial credit for a second HD DVR HR20, they couldn't provide, on a condition that I will...
