It can record on 5 tuners at once. It can only output 3 streams at once.

He is (however rude) correct. It is against OSHA regs to remove your shoes. He should have a second set of inside shoes or maybe disposable covers.

Yup. The walmart ratio is 60% 720 for PDP.

Looks like the current Best Buy ratio is 25% of PDPs are still 720 acording to their website. That blows my statement about "most" out of the water. In the field however when installing satellites, the ratio is reversed, at least here in Central Oregon. Now when I do custom work for the gated...

Let me fix that... most plasmas -in the field- as in installed base, still have a native 720P panel. The point at which 1080 became dominant in PDPs was early 2012 (overall, not at a given price point) but damn I still see a lot of entry level sets with that res.

So. OP has a 722 thats connected to an AVR with HDMI. AVR was connected to an HD CRT with an HDMI to DVI adapter and he had a great picture. He replaced the HD CRT with an HD LED/LCD and removed the adapter so its straigth HDMI. And now the picture sucks. He said that other HD sources look great...

The folders are meant to seperate different peoples recordings in the home so suzie and greg and bill all have different folders for their stuff and arent deleting each others recordings.

From your description you have 3 passive devices hooked to the node: 1 tap and 2 splitters. You can only have 2 devices and Hopper Internet Connectors (if you have one) count towards that total. So remove the second splitter as a test and see f that helps. If so, call them back out to make it right.

A trick I have used with sucess is to take a vhf/uhf amplifier to feed that antenna back into the reciever. Use one with adjustable gain and only turn it up as far as you need.

I dont interface with them, the owner of the shop does. I have a grudge against RS&I from back in the NRTC Directv days when they cost me $20, 000 and my Dtv dealership. Screw them. I can find out who the rep is though. What is it you want to know?

Im in central Oregon actually. Been here since 2008. Had a shop in NW Arizona from 97 -2007. Like it alot better here but the snow can be a pain. Still, it beats 160 degree attics and the variety of deadly things you encounter under peoples houses in the desert.

About thirty percent of my hopper installs involve 2 hoppers. If I arrive at a house and there are more than two people in residence there and especially if they have kids, I talk them into the second hopper on the spot. About 70 percent go for that and the rest seem convinced that they won't...

Check the splitter to ensure it passes voltage through both ports. Alot of then won't pass voltage at all or only through one port.

I have 2 hopper and no joeys. Have to go to a local retailer and pay $200. Be sure they include and install a HIC. Be sure they know something about the hopper system and have done at least a few dozen. Some important points during the install: critical that every single connector be changed and...

I have hooked a single hopper to a tv in the livingroom with hdmi and a tv in the bedroom with component. Both in hd and used the same remote for both because the tv were identical. Works great. Wouldn't be so easy with joey though, they have one hd (hdmi), and one sd (composite). Problem with...
