    5x8 Multi-Switch 47691-5MS

    It's not going to work, Ed. First, a multiswitch is not a splitter. Second, a non-SWM DirecTV system cannot have the satellite signal split.

    Why no Canadian channels?

    <SARCASM>Well, maybe if there's a substantial Canadian population in the US that wants to watch programming in their native language perhaps DirecTV will provide it to them...</SARCASM>

    HR-23 DVR Questions

    If it hasn't been said before, receiving DirecTV signals outside of the Continental US, Alaska and Hawaii is illegal. If DirecTV finds out you are doing so, your account will be canceled and you will be liable for any early termination fees.

    HR-23 DVR Questions

    You didn't purchase a receiver from e-Bay, you purchased it from (hopefully) a DirecTV authorized dealer who posted it on e-Bay. You didn't purchase it, you initiated a lease. Yes. It is DirecTV's property.

    New Receiver: HR-23 HD-DVR

    No. You would not be able to record from them, nor would the channels be integrated into the guide or tunable through the DVR.

    It's official, no more national HD for D* this year

    The only sports league that restricts access to their 24/7 channel that I'm aware of is the NBA. You either have to have the NBA League Pass, Sports Pack or Premier. The NFL Channel is available to anyone with Choice or above and the NHL channel is available to Choice Xtra/Plus DVR/Plus HD DVR...

    WTTV has been available in HD for a long time. I'm not sure of when DirecTV started carrying it, but it's been a while.

    HR21- Can it output SD and HD simultaneously?

    Smaye, the HR 10 was known for having an underpowered output section that could handle SD or HD but not both at the same time. It also could only output HDMI or component, but not both. The HR2X series all have a more "robust" output section that can output on all connectors at the same time.

    Poltergeist Commercial for DirecTV

    But one has to wonder... DirecTV starts airing the Poltergeist commercial and suddenly, all their HD DVRs are acting as if they are... Possessed! Coincidence? I leave it up to you...

    Upcoming DirecTV Local HD Markets (October)

    Has anyone heard from vurbano? I'm a bit worried about him. The last post from him said he couldn't wait to get home. I hope he didn't have a heart attack from seeing his locals in HD.

    And I know of at least twice as many households that switched to Dish and came back to DirecTV-some within days-so what's your point?
