    Good to know. Thanks!

    Am21 and HS17

    I'm happy to be corrected, but I do not believe the AM21 is compatible with the HS17.

    Whoa! $200 install fee for new satellite customers

    I'd like nothing more than to move to streaming, but until such time that the channel lineups are the same, or the last of the birds falls from the sky, I'm sticking with satellite.

    Disney/ESPN & DIRECTV Reach Deal

    I use the Roku app on most of my TVs while keeping two C61Ks on the others. The app is terrific and does indeed provide a better picture but in the Philly market (and I suspect many others) there are OTA stations missing. That needs to be addressed. BTW, I'm not sure of your definition of...

    Disney/ESPN & DIRECTV Reach Deal

    Agree completely on PQ but although a non issue to many people, the sound is garbage. Stereo only.

    New Genie Menus Coming in July

    Thanks. Will this be for all Genie receivers? I noticed the apps section and that seems like it might be limited to the Gemini units.

    Directv Satellite Service Call

    Well, if you don't ask the answer is always no.

    Directv Satellite Service Call

    I'm glad you're happy but they should have just shipped you a new one and if you have an HS17, it's built in.

    4K channels on Roku missing

    Are you on Directv internet or Directv satellite? I use the app on most of my TVs and the 4K channels from 104-106 are always there. BTW, I find the PQ better than the satellite feed.

    Equipment no longer supported letter

    The Directv app for Roku is excellent. So good in fact that I use it for most of my viewing as long as I'm just watching a single show/event. It's not great for channel surfing, though. I'm about to send back another Geni client.

    Discounts/Equipment?

    Directv, IME, has the best PQ of any linear TV provider not using streaming so let me get that out of the way. But, I don't know what you're looking at on what kind of equipment you have but the top streamers have PQ that far surpasses anything that Directv satellite is doing ...and that...

    Back from streaming (YTTV) to DirecTV? Has anyone done this?

    There were issues with the Directv Roku app but those seem to be fixed. The PQ is fine. I'm using it on a couple of Roku TVs where I don't need boxes (or the $7/month charge for them).

    Back from streaming (YTTV) to DirecTV? Has anyone done this?

    Beyond lousy internet service, I can't imagine why anyone would watch anything on the HBO linear channels. They've done a stellar job adding 4K/HDR content along with Dolby Atmos sound on the app.

    DIRECTV Raises TV Prices

    I've nothing about them that would make it worthwhile especially with a forced contract extension. I have Rokus for streaming.
