    Did they just take another channel away?

    We used to have NFL Network on this tier, I think we have Top 100, it went away about a year ago. Now, DIY network is gone. When did they do this? I am tired of them randomly moving programming to higher tiers. We are moving next month and I guess we will get Uverse now.

    Discovery HD

    It doesn't look that great to me. Mythbusters and Survivor Man are blatant Zoom-In's on a 4:3 source and it looks like crap. They credits are even cutoff at the end of Mythbusters.

    MonstersHD is slacking

    I love it. There are 2-3 good movies a week on there at least.

    XBMC upconverts nicely.

    Came back for HD

    I had Comcast, and then Time Warner, when they took over my area (DFW). Time Warner took NFL Network, threatened to take the local Fox affiliate away, and threatened some other channels. I got fed up.

    Anyone else fed up with TNT-HD??

    I have found TNT-HD almost unwatchable, except for NBA games. The way they stretch it makes me dizzy!

    Just Got New HDTV

    For longer runs, it does make a difference, but that is a moot point.

    Came back for HD

    Am I am not dissapointed so far. Food HD rocks, at least as far as the wife(fiance) factor is concerned. "Hey Food HD is showing different stuff than Food. This means I have TWO Food Networks now?" lol... HDNet Movies is cool. I have already DVR'd about 5 movies, including Top Gun:D The...

    In CS HELL!!!

    All of this just to order Satellite? Damn...I am not prank calling the CIA, I just wanted to watch some TV! I waited till my fiance came home, and used her phone and it worked like a charm. Thanks for the help. It was amazing to me that it was hard to navigate through their phone system...

    Mavericks - anyone getting on RSNSW 366 ?

    That is a shame. I would watch more basketball and baseball if it was in HD. With such long seasons, I would rather not watch the SD crap and just wait till TNT and NBC show the playoffs in HD.

    In CS HELL!!!

    The thing is, they show my account was in good standing, but she wouldn't/couldn't explain how I had an active receiver. I leased the receivers, but she was acting like I owned them. I kept the shipping records for about a year, and never heard anything back from them again, so I assumed my...

    In CS HELL!!!

    A little history: I was a subscriber to DN for about a year in 2004/2005. I voluntarily canceled service, in good standing, in Jan. 2005 and sent back all equipment. I recently dumped Time Warner Cable, and was looking to get HD from DN. Everytime I call, it thinks I am a customer, and...

    1 Satellite input only?

    Is there a way I can run only 1 Sat in line to my 522 if I just want to use the 1 TV tuner?

    Picture Quality

    After having dish for 1 week now, I can see that it mostly occurs on "regular" channels, like TBS, MTV, etc... The compression is much better on HBO and MAX. I guess they save the good bandwidth for thier premi channels.
