    Sunday Ticket

    The plan I have used to include the NFL Sunday Ticket. Since D* no longer carries this, shouldn't the cost of these plans be reduced?

    Loss of channels. No reduced cost

    I've had a D* package that includes the NFL Sunday Ticket. But this year D* no longer carries the Ticket. We have also lost local channels due to D*'s contract/fees negotiation failure with providers. While these channels are no longer available, D* continues to (over) charge for their service...

    Smart(?) Search on HR54

    Was very specific. Searched for team A vs team B. Results displayed all games scheduled for the next two weeks.

    Smart(?) Search on HR54

    Entered search for particular team (I am very specific about which game I want to search for). Shows list of events in right panel. When I select the one I want it shows a list of other teams/games. In the most recent search, I have to scroll down through 45 other events to get to the one I...

    HR54K

    Does this mean that if I only have one TV, that I need an HR54 that just hosts the C61k? And I'll be charged for two receivers even though I'm actually only using one!?!?!

    BBC America not recording correctly

    Seems like D* doesn't care about providing a good product. There seem to be more and more new and/or unfixed problems. This one is not just a minor annoyance. I don't have the time to manually do what the DVR is supposed to for me. And it's not a new issue. I started noticing it at least a year...

    BBC America not recording correctly

    Yes. The most recent shows air date of 2/09/2014. And it did not record. I have to go through the list of Upcoming shows and tell it to get those from 2014 that it missed. What a pain.

    BBC America not recording correctly

    Set up my HR22 to record only the NEW episodes of Top gear and Doctor Who on BBC America. But it doesn't record them. Don't have this problem on any other channels. Anyone else experience this or know of a way to correct it?

    Power Saver/Screen Saver

    Just one final thought. I use HDMI connections on all the HR2xs, so they "know" when the TVs are on. At some point after I turn off the TV(s), the screen saver kicks in. Doesn't it seem totally idiotic to have a SCREENSAVER running when the TV and (most important) the SCREEN is off?

    Power Saver/Screen Saver

    models are hr21 & hr22 And yes, I did turn off the power saver. I guess it's just another little annoyance that D* feels we should have to endure. Thanks for the info.

    Power Saver/Screen Saver

    Ever since the last release (0x256) all three of my HR2x boxes have been either going into power save mode or screen saver mode. I have turned off the power saver and rebooted, but it doesn't help. They either go to sleep or have the D* logo dancing around the screen. I realize it's only a...

    "Smart Search" isn't so smart

    So how do you clear the guide? I have rebooted, which rebuilds he guide. But this didn't fix the problem of missing programs in the search.

    "Smart Search" isn't so smart

    Just needed a sanity check to make sure it wasn't operator error on my part. This may have started after I got the latest release (ox59e) that was supposed to fix some of the HD GUI problems. Wonder how long this bug will stick around.

    "Smart Search" isn't so smart

    Caught part of a movie using the office DVR and thought it would be worth seeing on the big screen TV. Did the "View Upcoming" and it showed many instances on multiple channels. So I go to the family room DVR and search for the movie. All that comes up is one for a Video on Demand Channel. So I...

    DirecTV HD GUI Poll - Do You Like The New DirecTV HD GUI?

    I guess it would be OK as long as D* upgraded all of my OLD (hr20/21) receivers to equipment that functions properly with the new release. It seems that the response times have become linger and longer. It currently takes 5-7 seconds to bring up the guide.
