9.12 CE software fixed my HR34 lag issue as far as I can tell. Receiver is a lot more responsive to remote commands. Cycling through the guide is a lot faster. Everything seems faster, although with how terrible the receiver has been for the last few months it's hard to remember what the...

Never downloaded CE software before, but the unbearable lag of the HR34 has me on board.

Okay, found an old IR #1 and seems to work fine now. Thanks for the help.

Just received my Sling Adapter and hooked it up. I'm able to watch on both my computer and phone, but whenever remote access is in use, the TV1 tuner on my TV simultaneously freezes. Remote doesn't respond, can't change channel or pull up guide...no response from the remote at all. As soon as...

As someone considering switching from E* to D* solely because of an international package, I hope you share whatever information you're hearing.

Great, they throw 6 pennies and a quarter in a package and try to sell it for a dollar. This package blows goats. KBS is the only worthwhile channel and its already included in PI if you have 118. I was actually hoping (or rather my wife was) that Dish would do something worthwhile and throw...

Wouldn't count on it. Comcast is using the exclusivity as a marketing ploy to get people to switch to Comcast...and the Blazers are in bed with them and refuse to put any pressure on to reach deals with satellite providers. Once they saw the team improving and getting more popular, they sold...

Funny you mention that. I taught my 92-year old grandma how to record shows on a 612 in about 10 minutes over the phone, and she can barely see or hear the tv. If she can set up an all episodes Matlock timer on her own, you really have no excuses.

Can anyone point me to a list of the 65 HD channels available in Alaska?

I just sent Betty S at Dish Network a dozen roses.

I'll take a 922 as well. Please pm me with the details, but it may take a few days for me to get back to you. I'm currently wrapping up another unbelievable deal in which I'm receiving $5 million dollars from a Nigerian prince. All I had to do was wire his personal assistant $16,000 in...

Thanks for posting this information. The number of HD games on Direct is staggering. I've had League Pass on Dish and last year we were lucky to get 1 game a night in HD. If the Dish schedule comes out and resembles last year, this just may put me over the edge and switch to Direct.

Keep telling yourself that if it helps you sleep at night, but don't expect anyone to buy the fairy tale you're selling. All the polls and all the money are pointing to an Obama blowout, as well as large gains in both the House and Senate for Democrats. You may as well start resigning...

Dear Sweet Jesus Mother and Mary, I need Fox News HD on election night! If I can't see the priceless reactions of doom and gloom from the "fair and balanced" blowhards in great detail when the Republicans are wiped out in a bloodbath across the board, my night will not be complete. I need...

Clearly, the RNC doesn't realize that rows and rows of empty seats look PHENOMENAL in HD.
