Red button reboot twice per D*. Worked for me. Wait until first is finished and blank screen then hit the red button for second reboot

I called the regular DirecTV number and said "cancel Sunday Ticket". That probably got me to someone familiar with the "deals" being offered. I said I wanted to cancel as it was too expensive for a "retiree" and he first told me that I was being offered the lowest rate for previous...

Hmmm, you say this will happen on Dec. 3rd. I wonder what else is going on with Directv on Dec. 3rd?

I have searched through a number of forums and have not found a mention from Directv about Altoona/Johnstown LIL in HD. I have seen lots of speculation from members but not one peep from Directv. Soooo, until there is something offical from Directv we can only speculate which means they are...

More than 1/2 of the games seem to have an HD version. (unoffical personal survey) The NBA LP channels at 751 and up all have an HD -1 channel associated with them and that is where the HD will appear. They are also on some of the RSN networks HD channel. Directv also uses some of the...

.....when you read every post in this thread!:rolleyes:

When talking about price increases, you forgot to mention the $99 increase for ST HD better known as the Super Fan. One year it was free and the next year it was $49 to $99 depending on how successful you could negotiate. That was a price increase, not an additional service. Forget the bull...

Look, D* is probably losing HD subs to E* because they (E*) have more HD with their VOOM offering etc. D* has been promising more HD capacity for several years now and it looks like it will be at least 9 more months before they deliver. These announcements are holding tactics to try to get us...

So what is Scott hinting - VOOM coming to D* or other national HD channels, a combination of both or just more LIL HD? Do I really have to wait until Monday?

Does anyone know if D* will get around to HD in all the smaller DMA's where they have LIL in SD? I specifically interested in Johnstown/Altoona PA which have never been mentioned in anything that I have read.

I live in Western MD (Cumberland) and the pixelization is really bad at times on channel 7 out of DC. I still have my DNS HD networks and find myself watching it more than the MPEG4 Locals because of the picture problems. When it is right, MPEG4 does seem slightly better than MPEG2 but the...

My DC CBS has the pixelization problem but my NY DNS CBS does not. Leads me to believe it is a MPEG4 issue. Lip sync problems are mainly on DC ABC.

Hammond22, The cost of getting a ST HD next year will be in the $250 range or higher. That has started many ST subs rethinking their signing up. It truly wasn't worth it with all of the blackouts this year, not everything in HD, etc. If you get the networks in HD, the only reason to get...

Let's see, after reading all the forums, HD set new sales are going to exceed SD this year, Dish has plans for more HD and from a marketing standpoint is kicking D* s butt, D* took away 4 HD channels from those of us who qualified for E&W DNS and then they release a "press release" that talks...
