    Former Dish Net / New Customers Read This

    Okay...a new OSD was downloaded and the resolution issue has been addressed. I am just curious why it took so long for the box to receive the OSD update. (6 hours after it was added) Picture quality: Significant downgrade on locals AND national HD channels (this is very disappointing) Speed...

    Former Dish Net / New Customers Read This

    Okay...I just had Direct installed today and have the HR34/HR25.... Can somebody please assist me in improving or explain to me why the picture is of such poor quality compared to my Dish 722 that is connected to the same Sammy Plasma? I was expecting a slower guide CHECK I was NOT expecting...

    I just order D* and I am wondering if I got the 'right' equipment

    Do you think I can get them to give me an AM21 OTA tuner or do people have to buy those themselves?

    I just order D* and I am wondering if I got the 'right' equipment

    Just placed an order for service and will have the install next Tuesday morning. I asked for an HR34/HR24 and a HD receiver. Is this their top-o-da-line equipment these days? They also said I could receive a $100.00 credit and someone else would also receive if I got there account...

    Attempting to sign up for Directv and tech question and observation

    ...couldn't run my credit due to my security lock and began accusing me of hiding something. Then went into how I SHOULD have to pay all the fee's for having bad credit. The whole experience has left a VERY bad taste in my mouth about D* and now I am second guessing the who move... IS THIS...

    Since PTAT only saves data for up to 8 days...?

    That the manual timer (dish pass etc) will use the PTAT tuner method to capture the PT content thus avoiding tuner conflicts IS the above statement true as well?

    Since PTAT only saves data for up to 8 days...?

    True but that is / was not the unknown variable... It was stated that content in BOTH folders would be deleted every 8 days....and That the manual timer (dish pass etc) will use the PTAT tuner method to capture the PT content thus avoiding tuner conflicts

    Since PTAT only saves data for up to 8 days...?

    Thank you... 1. Set manual timers for all PTAT content and it will be stored in "My Recording" 2. Tuner conflicts will be avoided as the manual timers will use the PTAT tuner method to capture the content. Okay...if this is correct, I hope there is an easy way to create all those manual...

    Since PTAT only saves data for up to 8 days...?

    So this is back to the crux of why I started this thread.Simply put: If I go on holiday for 17 days, what do I need to do to make sure that the prime time shows that I watch are all available to me when I return? From the response thus far it would seem the only options is again to turn of...

    Since PTAT only saves data for up to 8 days...?

    So you are saying that they 8 day deletion/overwritten rule would apply to data written to the personal partition if the data was sourced from PTAT? If that is the case then there is no solution at this time.

    Since PTAT only saves data for up to 8 days...?

    Since PTAT only saves data for up to 8 days and then its over written, what does one do when they go on vacation and they are unable to copy shows over to their personal partition? The only solution I could think of would be to: A. Turn PTAT whilst on vacation and set manual timers...

    How stable is the HR34? Would you recomend it?

    So if I add the HR34 dvr and the HR24 DVR they will be able to share content (see each other recording) If I add the directivo it will work but will not be able to share content with the other two DVR's. Is this correct?

    New to DirectTV Questions - Installation and networking requirements

    If you have the HR34 DVR and a HR24 DVR those two device will count as 7 tuners and will be able to share content between them. If you add the Directivo it will not be able to share (that I get) but can it still be added?

    How stable is the HR34? Would you recomend it?

    Thank you for the feedback...The costco deal looks to be the best out there would you all agree? Will they give me an AM21 or will I have to buy that separately? Do they charge later to add additional STB if I don't get them at sign up?

    How stable is the HR34? Would you recomend it?

    I am debating with adding a new Directv account OR a Hopper/Joey setup. I am leaning towards D* as this will allow me to get ST. My only concern is the stability of both company's hardware as they are both new. How stable is the HR34 and would you recommend it? (as well as over a Hopper/joey...

    Joey Works Without Coax Cable?

    The network bandwidth issues(if you have one or are worried about one) is easily addressed by running it on its own network.

    Does Dish monitor and analyze ip addresses if you plug your receivers into network?

    Oh and as far as using a VPN site to site....it may work but your IPsec VPN throughput will be ungawdly slow thus present another bevy of issues.
