I have a vip 622 and it seem like ever since I received the update (where I got "TurboHD") it starts the recording about 10 seconds early and cuts off the last 10 seconds of the shows. I know I can extend the time of the show manually, but that cause problems with other recoding. Anyone else...

Thanks, Currently we have the BronzeHD and PlatinumHD. I was going to try and remove the PlatinumHD from our account, since we never watch those channel, but maybe I will hold off now.

I am sorry if these have already been asked/answered, I have searched but did not find anything Besides going 1080p, what is the TurboHD? Currently we pay $10/month for the BronzeHD package, with TurboHD, is this going to go up to $24.99. That is a 150% price increase. I am not a TV...

I noticed last week when I display the guide, there are double channels being displayed. For example, it will have ch2 and then ch2 HD; ch3, ch3 HD, and so on. Is there any way not to display this? I seached in the menus but did not see anything, and also searched the site but again did not...

i will have to double check when I get home, but I think it said for DHA.

I subscribed to E* in Dec, I signed the 18 month contract and used a Club Dish. The CSR on the phone said I will get $49 back for 18 month contract AND $49 back from using Club Dish. I have gotten 2 bills now, and I only see one $49 credit on my first bill. So my question is, should I be...

I got E* installed last week, and I am trying to figure a few things out. I have noticed when I bring up the guide for only HD channels, some local HD channels are being broadcast on 2 different channels, meaning channels 002 and 8000 something. Can I assume both channels have HD 24/7? Or...

Cool, thanks everyone!!!

I am getting the 622 installed tomorrow. I have ordered a HDMI cable from monoprice, but it has not come yet. So I was wondering if the s-video cable will work to view HD until the HDMI cable arrives? Or will the s-video only with with SD? Thanks!!

I was wondering if someone can recommend a good installer in the Union City/Fremont/Newark Area for a new install. I am interested in the 622. Also, is it possible to ask to have 2 dishes installed instead of the Dish 1000? Thanks in advance!!

In the FAQ there is a question about buying equiptment. So maybe if the receivers break they will replace them with whatever they use in their standard install. No matter with the receiver is HD/non-HD, DVR/non-DVR.

Has anyone called D* to verify this? I do not think the lease covers it, becuase if it did, why does D* offer a protection plan (http://www.directv.com/DTVAPP/global/contentPage.jsp?assetId=900030)? On that page it states that the protection plan covers: Covering the cost associated with...

Thanks damaged!!! I really appreciate it.

So I am going to upgrading to the HR20 (but not till December or January) but why does D* charge an upfront cost (i.e. the $299) to lease a receiver you have to sent back? Maybe the answer is "because they can" or "they want to make more $$" but if we can not keep the box why do the charge...

I ran accross this article on ziffdavis (http://review.zdnet.com/DirecTV_HR20_HD_DVR/4505-6474_16-32065196.html). One of the things it talks about is the recording time: 30 hours of MPEG-2 HD, or 50 hours of MPEG-4 HD. I have always heard in recorded 30 hours of HD never 50. So my question...

I am looking to find out the installer's name on who installed my D* system, and was wondering if call D* if they would give it to me? I lost the guys business card that he gave me. They did a really great job the last time and would like to give them repeat business. When I order my...
