    New Customer - Cinema Kit Issues

    Well, if this is true, then perhaps *D should remove the "WATCH NOW" option from the screen and just have the "RECORD" option. One time, just one time, it let me start a movie right away, but then it started buffering, then it started again for a sec, then buffered, then gave up, told me my...

    New Customer - Cinema Kit Issues

    Nothing works. Wired, wireless, nothing. I can get it to connect either way and not have it affect the WHDVR or the C31 client, but still says my connection is too slow to watch a movie or show right away. Only gives me the option to record. Directv support refused to help, saying it's a Comcast...

    New Customer - Cinema Kit Issues

    Thanks Bob, I'll give this a shot. Shouldn't be an issue with Comcast, as I had a wireless setup with Dish and got around 8-10Mbps (powerline adapter). However, I just looked and saw an Ethernet port on the back of the Cinema Kit. Could I plug in the ethernet there??

    New Customer - Cinema Kit Issues

    I just switched over from Dish and so far I've been happy with one exception. I have the Genie (HR34) and the C31 client hooked up along with the CCK. Unlike some others, the C31 client is behaving nicely, but the Cinema Kit is SLOWWWWWW. I have Comcast internet and get around 30Mbps via...

    OFFICAL: I am STAYING with DISH Network thread

    BTW....Welcome!! :) If you are going to get rid of Direct, then yes, Dish will install a new dish with their own LNBs. You will need only one dish.

    OFFICIAL DISH / FOX ORDEAL DISCUSSION THREAD

    I don't know why you felt the need to provide evidence, most people on here know that you know what you are talking about when it comes to DirecTV. I agree with you too, Fox will not pull channels off of *D, the working relationship is too close. They won't even threaten it, hell, the contracts...

    ....and alot of people posting the same thing about every three pages, over and over again. I try my best to skip the BS to a post that still might possibly have some useful info....lol. (and I just added to the pile of useless posts!!)

    OFFICAL: I am STAYING with DISH Network thread

    Staying. I'm very happy with Dish. Over the time I've been with them they have always handled any problems quickly and professionally. For instance, we had a LNB fail (129) and I called at around midnight to Dish Tech Support. I had a Dish tech at my house at 8:45am that morning and the $15 fee...

    That really sucks. :( He's a class act. More crappy news here (at least for this Texans fan): Texans left tackle Brown suspended for four games | Houston Texans Football | Chron.com - Houston Chronicle How he allowed this to happen after all the Cushing crap is beyond me. Stupid, stupid...

    2010-11 NFL Season

    Oh yeah!! Love my Texans, even though they nearly gave me a heart attack at about 5 different times during the game yesterday. Schaub is fantastic!! Let me re-phrase - Andre Johnson, against opposing secondaries, is a man among boys. Also, remember everyone laughing at the Texans for taking...

    Why is the 922 so screwed up?

    It seems I'm about the only one that hasn't had any major issues with my 922, and I've had to have it installed twice because I just moved. Knock on wood, but other than not yet being able to archive to the EHD and the Sling issues I'm happy with the 922. Never missed a recording, never had any...

    DVR Fees - Will they continue forever?

    This is more of what I was expecting to see price-wise. It's very comparable and I'm sure I'd be very happy with Direct, so long as I got the 24 series receivers. But I'm not going anywhere as of now.

    CONFIRMED(?)- Dish Discontinuing Absolute HD Package

    :up ....though I wouldn't call it a "special". It was/is a package. But it was certainly priced as a "promo" package and those subs got to enjoy that price for years. At some time you knew this was going to end.

    DVR Fees - Will they continue forever?

    All very true. I wasn't saying that Direct was cheaper or anything, just that I think the receiver fees are too high. Like I said, I'm not going to continually bitch about it and I'm happy with Dish, and my 922 has been very stable, great receiver, so I'm grateful for that too (knock on wood).

    DVR Fees - Will they continue forever?

    Thanks for the hard work here DK. I'm surprised at the numbers. I thought anything beyond 2-3 TVs was going to be Direct all the way. DuoDVR reciever or not though, $17 is outrageous, which is on top of the $10 DVR fee (for the 922). I only have two boxes, the 922 and a 722k, so I shouldn't...

    I believe he was telling Scott to not bother explaining the situation, that it wouldn't make any difference to people who are blaming the whole mess on Dish.

    CONFIRMED(?)- Dish Discontinuing Absolute HD Package

    I've read the the thread and from what I understand Dish was in a no win situation here. Because of programmer demands Dish had to abandon Absolute, thus pissing off these customers (and others just on principle). If they would have kept Absolute the programmers most likely would have pulled...

    DISH Network Reports Second Quarter 2010 Financial Results

    DK on a *D campaign?? Sorry, but I don't see it. DodgerKing is one of the most fair, open-minded, objective, and helpful people on these boards. I'm a *E sub and while DK might call out Dish on their many issues, he's always fair, and even posts things where *E has an advantage. He also calls...

    Will this PC do the Job?

    I plan on adding a discrete card, more memory, and a better monitor in the future, when I can afford it. Or go with one of the above setups for a couple years then really go all out. :)

    Will this PC do the Job?

    I found this Acer Tower: Acer Aspire AX3400-U2012 Desktop Computer PT.SE202.006 - B&H B&H is a great online dealer as well. I've ordered photography equipment from them too many times to count and they are fantastic. However, it does not come with any protection plan or a monitor.
