Hey, Just wanted to know if others out there were getting North/South Carolina locals instead of Portland-Auburn, Maine locals. I've contacted DISH and they said it'll be fixed as soon as possible. The local PBS station is coming in fine. Are any of you experiencing this? Thanks! EDIT: Back...

Well, WGME in Maine isn't gone quite yet..

Did did that with our local PBS station not too long ago... after many issues, they switched back to putting the whole 16:9 picture in the 4:3 image.

I've done that and the effect only lasts a few hours.

I got this update as well- I have noticed a dramatic increase in the time it takes for the guide to pop up after pushing the guide button. It was bad before this update, and now it's even worse.

Just a note on this- you can call and get a free receiver replacement without this plan under warranty. You will have to haggle to get them to drop the $15 shipping fee.

Is the 222k MPEG4? I have tried the HDMI cable I connect to my Xbox+component and no matter what the 222k is always least clear.

Just a quick correction, I have a 722k, and the output is defiantly set on 720p. The TVs information screen confirms this. I guess I am referencing a type of "unclairity" in the picture and notice that the image on HD channels is blotchy. I don't think it's my TV because things from my...

Hello, I've been bouncing back between 720p and 1080i to try and see if I can see a difference. Based on threads here, I settled on 720p. I have also tried both Component and HDMI with no visible difference. In addition, I have worked around with my TVs settings. I am thinking, based on...

Sling isn't provided by DISH at all, when viewing slingbox content, one connects directly to ones slingbox at their home IP.

I have been a DISH subscriber since this February and can now say I've noticed a noticeable decline in HD picture quality. Netflix HD streaming from my Xbox looks better and less blotchy than DISH HD does. Does anybody know what is up with this? Have they been reducing the bitrate on HD...

What DMA are you in? Presque Isle? What CW do you have? Portland-Auburn?

GAH! The DMA next to mine, Bangor,ME is getting PBS and the CW in HD. My DMA doesn't have that. People are always talking about how easy it is to "move," is it really that easy/can it be done on the website?

Anybody?

To avoid opening another thread- What is the deal with superstations? Looking online, it says I am eligible for the UPN and WB ones. What are the benefits to these if one already MyTV and CW locals? Are they offered in HD? Thanks!
