    Buh Bye Charlie, Hello DirecTV

    Found a solution. Under Options in the List menu the very bottom choice gives you the option to view only local recordings only in your list. That did the trick for now, while it does hide her list completely from my list at least I know that with a few remote button pushes I can see her list...

    Buh Bye Charlie, Hello DirecTV

    So almost a week later I'm more than happy with my switch. I can't say that I have any complaints other than one minor gripe. My gripe is that when I setup a series recording for say a program at 11:00pm, rather than it recording that series at 11:00 it wants to record it if it comes on...

    Buh Bye Charlie, Hello DirecTV

    So after 10 years as a DishNet sub I made the switch to DirecTV. Had 3 HR24s installed today with Whole Home DVR and the internet connection kit. So far so good although it's only been 4 hours. Tech was very very professional and did a superb job with the install, especially considering it...

    HR21-700/H21 vs HR24/H24

    And this is exactly why I will not switch, (though I really really want to) until I can be guaranteed to get HR24s. To the OP, personally I think you should call and complain and see if you can get anything done. Being locked in to a contract with inferior substandard equipment would eat at me...

    Sure I will, I'll just wait till the older models are no longer being made and put in the field. :)

    what dvr will i get?

    Hrmm no guarantees of HR24s on a new install, guess I better not move to Directv just yet. Really really want the Whole Home DVR but don't want to get stuck with 3 outdated receivers.

    Tallahassee ABC HD PQ Terrible

    Last night for some reason the PQ on the Tallahassee ABC HD feed got terrible. The SD feed looks better. The HD feed is very pixelated and blurry. Any other people with Tallahassee ABC HD noticing poor PQ? I've reported it to Dish, let's see what happens. And before anyone asks, it's not...

    Compatible Hard Drive 622

    Well today it appears that the harddrive has pretty much failed. After an hour on the phone with DishNetwork, getting transferred 6 times to 6 different tech people who didn't know what the hell to do, the 7th person was able to do what needed to be done to get a replacement 722 in the mail to...

    Oh, that sounds like a plan. Thanks. :)

    Compatible Hard Drive 622

    DHPP? Is that short for leasing the equipment from Dishnetwork? If so last thing I need is more dollars on my sat bill. It's already high enough :( If I'm unable to procur a replacement drive I'm hoping this thing will hold on long enough till the new Dish receiver with the built in...

    Compatible Hard Drive 622

    Apparently the Seagate ST3500830SCE 500gb is discontinued and I can't seem to find one anywhere. Does anyone know if there is a new version? My 722 Harddrive appears to be slowly dying and I would like to try a harddrive swap before I fork over another 400 bucks or so for a new 722.
