    AT&T disappointed with offers for struggling DirecTV

    It also depends on if your tower has been upgraded for 5G. In my area I get 300 down and 30 up on 5G. I would imagine for some that would be sufficient especially if the home service has 5G.

    I can't get The Marquee Network on my Directv

    I always thought Marquee should have been a part of the sports package. There are tons of Cub fans out here in Arizona that goes to spring training on a religious basis every year, but they are blocked out as well. Whoever negotiated this agreement was retarded. No way fans should be shut...

    Wasnt T7S the one with the slow gas leak?

    AT&T’s massive TV losses continue as another 900,000 customers flee.

    When the nation is stuck at home, streaming and watching OTB TV services, losing nearly a million customers is not a good show of the strength of your offerings. "Stephenson said he’s looking at possible job cuts and other cost efficiencies in order to stem the bleeding."...

    Today was my last day as an AT&T employee

    Kind of a surreal day as I have been along for the ride. DirecTV was a great company to work for and I was with the company pre-AT&T, back in DirecTV's peak. Great benefits and great people. The company knew that the customer was the focus as they were what paid our paychecks. The sense...

    TVAnswerman Has AT&T Predictions For 2020

    Yep, this was no secret. It was confirmed by multiple DirecTV employees who have since left the company via layoffs and some who voluntarily left. T16 was supposed to be paired with T17. ATT instead went into an orbital consolidation mode instead of launching new sats to support some of the...

    FOX43 in PA constantly glitching.

    The station probably needs to reset its encoder. By the way, you're describing the glitches, it almost seems like a PCR accuracy issue with the station. If it's an ongoing issue, I'm sure DirecTV is aware of it and it's usually 100 percent of the time an issue with the local. DirecTV has...

    DirecTV loses 1.2 million customers

    It's sad that they are not doing anything to actively keep those subs either. I'm just waiting for the day we hear of all directv employees being laid off.

    Dolby Vison and Atmos Supported?

    I'm watching the ND vs USC NBC game in 4K HDR right now. This game is in Dolby Atmos.

    Cant remotely set recording for 4K NFL

    I left on vacation and forgot to set the DVR. I know I'm an idiot. So... I pull out my phone and my laptop and try to set the game to record from there. I cant. Channel 105 shows up as no information available in the guide online through directv.com and on the iPhone app the channels...

    Adding 4K questions

    Yes. I would have asked to be swapped out to a Genie 2 as well so you could have gotten the benefits of that. If you can get as many C61k’s as you can as they work well and are pretty solid. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    DirecTV 4s

    This pretty much spells out that the satellite could be leaking gas or used more than they were aware of if DirecTV doenst know how much gas is in the tank, but they know that they have enough to kick it to the trashcan.

    CID works on Clients but no longer on HR44

    Yep, You cant even buy a landline POTS line anymore. CenturyLink here no longer offers them here. They will sell you a voip product in its place. They do that because the infrastructure for copper is so expensive to maintain. The copper plants have deteriorated so much that they would...

    CID works on Clients but no longer on HR44

    Anyone else notice the Pizza Hut ads when paused?

    Paused the screen for a bit, and noticed that instead of going to the usual screensaver, there was a Pizza Hut logo with pizzahut.com on the screen. The bottom had press any key to go back to your paused program. Interesting that ATT seems to now be selling advertising space when your...

    Directv premier protection plan

    Yes, I have had 3 Ipads, Two TV's and an AVR repaired under it. Worth every penny. They will send a tech out to diagnose and attempt to fix it. As long as the screen isnt cracked they will try to fix it if parts are available. If they are not or it can't be fixed then they will email you...

    DirecTV Now to rebrand under AT&T TV family.

    My understanding was it was a modulation issue on how they wanted the transponders configured versus an actual MPEG4 issue, they wanted to use S2 to squeeze more bandwidth out from the transponders in the combination of MP4 instead of DVBS and couldn't with the old bird as those modes were not...

    DirecTV Now to rebrand under AT&T TV family.

    You do realize they had to wait for T16 before they were going to do the MP4 transition. I believe there is a technical reason with the satellite transponders and how it’s configured on why they waited to do the transition. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    DirecTV Now to rebrand under AT&T TV family.

    I personally would like to see them develop a version of the Osprey box for DirecTV. Churn would be significantly lower if ATT offered something like that. The goal should be to keep ATT products on input 1. I'm sure people are more likely to watch your product if they have access to things...
