    PPV recording question

    I think that's a good idea. I'll do that tomorrow. But that's not what happened. BOTH receivers (which are HD DVRs) have BOTH PPV recordings available. In total, we show four recordings of the England-Argentina rugby match. Each DVR shows TWO recordings of the match - one with a K next to it and...

    PPV recording question

    Thanks for your response. It's kind of crazy. Even though we've got two DVRs, we initially tried to set the PPV to record using one remote. However, it has recorded available on both DVRs. Also, the other one, with the "K" next to it (which it sounds like is the one we ordered online) is also...

    PPV and phone line

    Can you order movies online without it? Is it just so that you can use your remote or something? I forgot to say thanks to everyone for the suggestions of ordering PPV online. I did that and it showed up on both DVRs, so thanks. We'll do that for the PPV rugby matches we want to watch.

    PPV recording question

    Last night I tried to order a PPV rugby match using my remote, but because we aren't hooked up to a phone line or the internet, it didn't actually show up on my account (I phoned D* to verify). So I cancelled that order using the remote and it shows up as cancelled in my Purchases list...

    PPV and phone line

    Thanks. I did the test and it said "Cannot Detect Phne Dial Tone for PPV and Caller ID" and that I'm not connected to a phone line. I went to the "More Info" section and it also says I'm Not Connected to the internet. So I guess that answers that. Thanks for the info on how to test. What is the...

    PPV and phone line

    So I should call them to get the Cinema Connection Kit? Is that something that should have come with Whole Home DVR, or is that something extra?

    PPV and phone line

    According to my account, I've got Whole Home DVR. Does that mean it's connected to the internet? My internet is still with Uverse, which is what we had before we switched to DirecTV. I don't think there's an internet connection where the cable comes in for the satellite. Is it somehow connected...

    PPV and phone line

    We're new subscribers to D* as of about ten days ago. We have two HD DVRs - I think they're HR-24 (?). They are not connected to a phone line, and as far as I know they're not connected to an internet connection either. We want to record some of the Rugby World Cup matches, which are PPV. I...

    Rugby World Cup - how to get a PPV package added?

    Yeah, we saw that! At least we'll be able to afford to watch a few more matches. Still not a reasonable price for all matches, but way better than it was.

    Rugby World Cup - how to get a PPV package added?

    Yes, it's terribly expensive. There are 40 pool games before the teams get into the quarterfinals. Do the math. It's ridiculously expensive. Four years ago with Dish we had the entire Rugby World Cup - all games - for $199. I'm truly shocked they aren't offering a package to watch all the games...

    Rugby World Cup - how to get a PPV package added?

    I just sent an email to that address - using the proper "." and "@" of course - and it came back as undeliverable. Does anyone have a more current email address?

    Rugby World Cup - how to get a PPV package added?

    Thank you. Yes, that was me posting as rugbyfan. I found that thread on google. It seems like there are plenty of people out there who are just as frustrated, upset and disappointed as I am. I will email the President tomorrow. Thank you for giving me the email address. I hope they can figure...

    Rugby World Cup - how to get a PPV package added?

    As you can tell from my screen name, I'm a rugby fan. I switched to DirecTV this week for the purpose of watching the Rugby World Cup, which starts next week. I was told when I signed up that DirecTV would offer the entire tournament as a PPV package deal. Now that my system is set up, I find...

    Two DVRs - my remote operates both at the same time

    Just wanted to say thank you to all who helped me with the problem with the remotes. I finally have them working with their separate DVRs. Such a convoluted process to get there. I appreciate you all being patient with me and offering your experience and various suggestions to help me out. I...

    Two DVRs - my remote operates both at the same time

    Thank you! I swear, I felt like I was going crazy. I kept saying "It's not there!" and everyone kept saying, "It's there!" I'm running on almost no sleep for a week, and I kept wondering if that was the problem as to why I couldn't find it, but now it seems it's just different equipment. Thank...
