    PAC-12 Still in Limbo?

    Unless of course the HS 17 goes down and then all of your TV's are down. I know the chances are slim, but i would not be a happy camper....I'll stick with my hr 44 and the two hr 24's that i currently have.

    HS17-100 (For those wondering)

    and in that case the result would be the same. I have no cable, cannot get it, and no cell reception. I suspect, without being able to prove it, that I am not alone. Back in the day when i first got DTV, I probably would have gone for cable, just because i did not know better, so with out...

    AT&T plans to move all DirecTV customers to new streaming service

    Are you folks telling me that my 7 meg download speed from Hawaiiantel is not going to be adequate to watch HD TV or yet 4K TV? The idea of streaming is absurd and will certainly cost ATT many customers. In fact, without Directv I would need to invest over ten thousand dollars to install...

    newest equipment

    Don't forget. IF you are absolutely dying to have the one channel and Pay per View channels of 4K, you must also have a qualifying programming package.

    Non-Directv 4k ready TV - Needs C61K - New Monthly Charge?

    Thank you. Not many people think of the rural or remote areas of America. They all think like they live in Philadelphia, have blazing internet speeds, and IP would be good for everybody. Not true by a long shot. The only other area is those who want everything from a TV box. It must tell...

    Pretty Upset..

    Doing your own trouble shooting is a wonderful idea if you have had the equipment installed for a lengthy time, However, you just had this installed and clearly something is wrong. Do not let them get away free on this. Call DIRECTV and have them get it correct. It should not be incumbent on...

    DTV to broadcast 25 MLB games in 4k

    Now if they could only make a receiver capable of playing a linear 4K channel it would be a good thing, but to have to pay for two receivers in order to get one TV to view one channel, probably only appeals to the early adopter.

    RC73 Question

    Careful i bought a couple of those and they are refurbished i think. They were both DOA. So i went to solid signal and purchased at a higher price and got a functioning remote.

    Investing in Super Soaker technology

    Keep in mind Bowl season is a time "when minutes count". If one is not armed appropriately then he might have to wait until the thaw. Out here in Hawaii, it can be Kona Storms knocking out the power. Usually it is not the rain that accompanies the storm but the loss of power, So I am armed...

    KHON Hawaii pixelated, blanking, audio

    My nephew called me yesterday and mentioned the problem while watching the Notre Dame game on Directv. So I checked on my Directv and saw the problems that were described.

    Will DIRECTV Add Al Jazeera In HD This Week?

    In that the channel is now available, I would have thought this thread would have died....Have been reading about it for years and now it is on, and still the thread lingers....

    Miss spoke

    Directv seems to do this with some regularity. Back when my HR34 was new, it performed pretty well. After multiple iterations of firmware "updates' they managed to turn it into a piece of garbage. Now they are messing with the HR44 and making it less than it was "out of the box". I love my...

    Replacement equipment for bad HDMI?

    Your explanation would undoubtedly raise fewer eyebrows, but i would still challenge them to prove me wrong...Just because....lol

    Replacement equipment for bad HDMI?

    I would just tell them that my TV does not have component, only HDMI for HD viewing. Let them try to prove me wrong.

    My on-demand is down. I'm guessing this happens once in a while and is temporary. Am I right?

    IN your setup, it is successfully connected to the internet? I am only asking because you did not mention that part....

    HR44 freezes, but NOT during commercials

    Interesting... I had the same issue on Saturday. My HR44-200 locked up tight while viewing some football. The receiver would not respond to the remote, nor would it respond to touch control. The only answer was a red button reset. The problem has not coourred since. Using the national...

    Genie Error

    According to Directv, they are working on the problem. If you do not shut off your Genie, i imagine the commercial freeze will remain until you change channels or fiddle with the pause and fast forward. I always shut off my genie and when i turn it back on the commercial freeze is not evident...

    Rumor Alert

    NO, being a fan of the SEC, I can fully understand why many folks want the PAC12. But we seem to be getting to a point where every little niche league is going to have a network that Directv seems to feel that we are going to love paying for.

    Rumor Alert

    I understand. but that does not mean i have to like it. You are the person who said it was not being shoved down my throat. if i do not want it, but am forced to pay for it, then it is being shoved. It is just one of those things. I fully get it, but because i get it does not mean i have to...

    Rumor Alert

    I will not watch it but the point is that i will probably have to pay for it just because Hawaii will be considered in their territory...But then maybe, just maybe they will make everybody pay for it. But i somehow doubt it...

    Rumor Alert

    Takes two to tango. I would bet that the PAC12 also has something to do with the negotiations....There are other options for receiving the Pac12. I do not quite understand the animosity toward DirecTV but then I am not particularly happy at the prospect of having the PAC12 shoved down my...
