I'm done. Scheduled a Directv install for tomorrow afternoon. There were actually a lot of things I liked about Dish but in the end I just got tired of the programming disputes. I know Directv has had disputes too but with Dish I'm now afraid of what channels or programs I'll lose tomorrow...

I cannot f'n believe this.

That's my plan. And I'm sending the tweet to the broadcaster (FSNorth in my case) and the team (MN Twins in my case). All three parties monitor their messages on twitter with regularity so I'm hoping it might create some waves.

To me, it's no longer an issue of "if you want HD sports, go to DirecTv." To me, the issue is it's 2011 and all major league baseball games produced in HD should be broadcast in HD on Dish. It's not like this is some fringe sporting event, it's Major League Baseball. This problem was...

Spoken as if from Scott himself. It's ok to want/complain/whine about any other channel but when anyone says they want their RSN HD games in HD it's, "go to DirecTv." *sigh*

I'm using component on my solo. I believe I have registered my slingbox on the website but I'll double check. I know I have an account.

Yes, works fine. Yes, doesn't work.

Receiver: ViP622 Slingbox: SOLO Phone: Evo 4G Shift OS: Android 2.2 I downloaded the Dish Remote access App and I am able to "find" my 622 receiver and I can see a list of all the DVR events I have on it. However, when i go to watch live tv or any of my dvr events it asks me for my...

I just want all of the HD events on my RSN to be shown in HD.

I'm not talking about people who don't have either provider. When dish subscribers have whined (yes, i have whined a lot) about lack of ESPNUHD and lack of 24x7 HD RSN's your response has been if you like sports, you should have DirecTV. You have said this on your podcasts and in other...

With all due respect Scott, this is not how you've positioned it before. I agree that if you want out of market sports packages you should head to DirecTV. I'm talking about when people have brought up things like ESPNUHD, 24x7 HD RSN's your response has been if you want sports, go to DirecTV...

I agree. Scott is always saying the same thing. When it comes to any other programming Scott is always going to "fight for the consumer!" and "make sure we get what we deserve" but when it comes to sports programming he says, "switch to DirecTV." Double standard.

Anyone know if the terms of the new contract say anything about NOT showing HD sporting events on Fox HD RSN's in SD??

I hold both Dish and Fox accountable. End the frickin p*ssing match and get this thing done.

Scott, Does the current Fox dispute have anything to do with 24/7 HD RSN's to your knowledge? Could a resolution change Dish's current handling of HD RSN's?

If Dish loses these Fox channels I hope Scott has a few backup servers ready for this site. Going to be an overload of posts...

I believe the last official word from Dish on HD RSN's was during a charlie chat a few months ago. Dish stated that they hoped to add some 24/7 HD RSN's "by this time next year." I'm paraphrasing from memory and I believe that chat occurred after the start of this year's MLB season. So...

Wonder if it will show 2.35:1 movies in OAR?

blts' post illustrates the most frustrating part of the hd rsn dish situation IMO. The fact that dish is being evasive, dismissive and flat out dishonest about the situation is b.s. It's not even that dish cannot broadcast all the hd rsn games in hd. They could do it but they have made a...

That depends upon the licensing agreement. If Dish pays a fee per user then perhaps you're correct. If Dish pays a flat fee for a certain time window then they could turn a profit with enough purchases. Personally I wouldn't go more than $.99. Word is blu-ray will be out on Redbox in the...

Scott, any word on whether Dish has plans to offer $.99 HD movies on a regular basis or was this just a one time thing? I rented one of the movies yesterday and it looked great. I will continue to rent at least one per week if they offer them for $.99

Wow, $.99 for HD movies? Cool. Now, if they would just show the 2.35:1 movies in OAR.

Nice to see the money from our monthly bills going to good use.

What's next? We lose ESPN and dish "launches" the home shopping network?

From my perspective the most important thing right now regarding HD RSN's is to stop missing HD games. If they do indeed turn on a few full time HD RSN's after the July launch perhaps that will free up enough TP space so none of the HD games are shown in SD. In a perfect world all of the...
