To the OP. I live in Columbia, MO and have lost the Cardinals and the Royals games on Dish. I'm an MLB.TV subscriber and subscribe to a VPN service (something I'd recommend if you ever use public hotspots). VPN lets me route my internet traffic through any number of cities, so I can see all...

Thank you to everyone for your replies. Christina, I held down the SAT button for one minute. SAT lights up on the top of the remote, but nothing else does. Holding DVR+Guide also lights up SAT, but it doesn't do anything more. I never get any sounds. I'd un-paired the remote and receiver...

Everything went fine, the installer finished a little before noon, and I went off to work. I was watching TV on my joey (small, slave receiver) last evening about 8 PM, and saw a message that I had a remote software update and could cancel it by pressing any key. I pressed any number of keys...

I was really looking forward to having the premium channels free for three months (switched to Dish on 11/30). I have a 7 yo and have missed a lot of promising movies since he's been around. I've been terribly disappointed to find out that Starz has stopped showing films in their proper...

Well, I got an email at about 4:30 this morning that my DirecTV account has been disconnected. That's progress! I do have a problem with the government letting U-Verse buy DirecTV, but their support had gone south long before that acquisition. Way back in the days of the usenet and...

When I called DTV last month, I was sent to retention. Once I explained to them that Dish had already been installed and that I was under contract with them for two years, they let me cancel (or so I thought) within five minutes or so. She told me that I had boxes on the way for my receivers...

So I was a DirecTV customer from Sept 1995 to Nov 30, 2015. I had Dish installed that afternoon and called DirecTV to cancel my programming that night. I was told that boxes would be here for my equipment in two weeks or so, I would be missed as a valued customer, etc. The boxes never came, and...

I've never used this, but it looks perfect for streams. http://www.fountainware.com/Products/AudioDelay/

IIRC, DirecTV and MLB tried to work out a monopoly like DirecTV has with Sunday Ticket. The federal government made some noise, and both sides backed off. Dish dropped MLB Extra Innings though. This was maybe between the 2006 and 2007 seasons?

I bought this little toy: http://www.sportsyncradio.com/ It lets me delay the Cardinals radio broadcast to match the television. It's overpriced, but I LOVE IT.

I've bought individual months of mlb.tv before, and I have a media PC connected to my main TV. The problem is that it only gets a 4:3, 1024x768 window in the middle of the set, with black bars on either side. I was hoping that that the package showing up for Dish in all of the TV listings...

I've been considering switching to Dish for a few years now. One of the things keeping me with DirecTV is MLB EI. I remember Dish dropping it years ago (after 2006 maybe?). There is nothing about it at dish.com, and I can't find anything to lead me to believe that Dish has it except that all...

I am pretty sure that I am the only Aggie who has posted on this thread, and all I said "Long time no see, guys! I loved the game last night!" I was just dropping in to say hi because I've been spending my season on other sports boards. If I'd known I was going to be ambushed by some jackass...

It's well known throughout Texas that his father owns land in the oilfields outside of Tyler, TX. They're loaded. That's how he afforded the courtside NBA seats. Here's a 20 year old kid who has the world by the balls and knows it. More power to him.

Insecure?!? We kicked your asses all over the field on national television. Why would I be insecure? Oh, and I got the WAC comparison from the game thread on soonerfans.com. Dig through and find it for yourself. I don't remember what page it's on, but I happen to agree with it. The 70-63...

Long time no see, guys! I loved the game last night! :D There's a guy named Tim Griffin who blogs for the San Antonio Express-News. Below is a link to his thoughts on the game and on OU's program. I think that a lot of it applies to the Big 12 in general. The Big 12 started off as a very...

I don't blame DirecTV for this. If you're going to have teams in every major sports market starting their own RSNs and demanding $3 to $4 per subscriber, what else are they supposed to do?

The Rockets and Astros have started Comcast Sportsnet Houston. Comcast is demanding $3.40 per subscriber for television providers in the Houston DMA. Needless to say, it's essentially only available to people with Comcast cable at this point. Only 40% of TV viewers in Houston can see Rockets...

Well, I posted my problem to another board and got the response pasted below. I'll probably type up an email this afternoon and send it to KXXV and KCEN, the two Waco channels whose local repeaters aren't in the guide. There are 200k people in Brazos County. I can't imagine that they don't...

I gave DirecTV my sister's address in Houston many years ago. At the time, nothing in my market had gone HD except for a special all-HD PBS channel. I've kept the Houston locals as my wife grew up there and has watched KTRK news most of her life. I have an hr21 receiver connected to my...

I am going to bump my own thread as I am getting serious about this now. If I want America's top 200 + HBO + Multi-Sport, my billing should be (after initial pricing expiration): $59.99 + $18 (ouch) + $9 Extra receiver fee (two total HD and one SD) = $7 All DVRs for $7 Total = $100.99 Have I...

Joker Phillips is toast. http://www.ukathletics.com/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/110412aac.html

http://www.chron.com/news/article/Fans-of-local-teams-stand-to-win-as-new-network-3907606.php It's interesting. HSE was launched in 1983 and was the first RSN. Astros road television games had been on KRIV television and then KTXH for as long as I can remember. Then Astros owner John...

If you look at pre WWII MNCs in college football, it is very common to have any number of schools claiming titles for the same season. As far as I am concerned, we were just late to the party on this one. The conference title claims are completely different. A number of Aggies have spent the...

Apparently we just haven't put up the '$' sign denoting those as division championships. http://www.aggieathletics.com/ViewArticle.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=27300&ATCLID=205389912#football :rolleyes: Yes, it's lame, and I am hoping that it isn't a sign (no pun intended) of things to come with the new AD.
