Hopefully I can say this in a way that makes sense: My Tivo is hooked up in a second room where the Dish TV2 is being run (the Dish receiver is in a different room). Obviously the TIVO can't change the channel because the DISH receiver is in a seperate room. I could have sworn there was a...

Forgive me, I know this is probably an ignorant question, but after hearing that DISH was upgrading to 1080p I had a question: When I had my service installed the HDMI output on the back receiver would not work so we hooked it up using component video cables. The installer said it didn't...

From a non-industry person's viewpoint the problem I see causing people to bail on DISH is: COMMUNICATION. If you have Dish through AT&T you have a major headache with technical/customer support or getting ANYTHING done. If you don't have the AT&T package then you have a major headache...

What about Spike or Comedy Central HD? Is there ANY chance of that coming anytime soon? (is Comedy Central even in HD yet? I know Spike is..)

Before I take my sanity into dangerous waters and call Dish Network, is there a reason that my HD TNT, HDTHR, HDNET, and ESPN HD would all of a sudden be listing as "Subscription Channels which has not been purchased".. when I have had the everything package and been receiving them up until...

Quick question: I'm sure that KTLA, KWGN, etc.. are available to DISH subscribers in those areas as HD. So does anyone know why none of Superstations are uplinked to the rest of the subscribers in HD format? They obviously already have them on the satellite.. wouldn't it just be a difference...

I have always had problems with the picture quality of the Disney channel, but thought it was due to either a poor signal, or bad compression, or something that my non-tech mind knew nothing about. BUT now that we receive it in HD (even though I haven't seen an actual show in HD yet) I still...

You might wait and see. I saw the title of your thread and it's very interesting, but my 622 rebooted out of nowhere 2-3 times yesterday. It looks like it may have been a signal from DSH, because mine did it (the first time) at exactly 5pm (cst). Or maybe just a coincidence?

Does Direct know something we don't (or don't want to admit)? Why would they invest money in it if they expected it to be obsolete very soon. Meaning, they must suspect that DISH will not be adding USAHD or SCIFIHD anytime soon. Otherwise it's wasted money and the whole ad has to be redone.

This may sound a bit over the top (especially since it's my first post) but has anyone considered a class action against DISH to get out of their current contracts? The reason I searched out this forum was because I am so ticked off about the HD situation, and I've noticed numerous postings...
