    Its April 17th, Did You Get Your Smart Cards In? If Not Next Round Monday

    I did, two weeks ago. They turned them off today anyway. Apparently their system isn't smart enough to know which cards to keep on. 45 minutes later all is well.

    When I pause tv on my 622 then go to resume watching it jumps immediately to live tv and I have to rewind to get back to where I should have been. Anybody else have this issue?

    Emergency Retailer Chat Recap - Aug 28th

    I think it is the record one show while watching another previously recorded. The thing that really gets me about it is that is essentially what you do with your computer all the time. It's like downloading a video file while watching the one you downloaded right before it.

    Food HD Wednesday Aug-16 is on!, no date for INHD yet

    When has this happened? I can't think of a single time things improved down the road. Once they downrez/drop bitrate it's there to stay.

    Dish fixed STARZ HD

    I don't really understand why they are down-rezing. They're using mpeg4 at 15Mbps which is more than ample for full rez.

    Not happy with StarzHD quality

    This is getting rediculous. I get the feeling they're not even trying to fix it. This isn't rocket science.

    International Services Moving to 118.7 Orbital Slot - DELAYED

    Maybe they're changing plans and are going to move the HD off 129. I know... wishful thinking.

    Not happy with StarzHD quality

    Terribly choppy on pans. Most likely cause is the deinterlacing of the 1080i mpeg2 source from Starz. Picture quality is actually pretty good otherwise. Kinda surprised they are encoding it at 15Mbps. That's more than HBO which is mpeg2.

    Scared of Sat 110

    Moving the dish around is really pretty easy. You can even push a little in each direction without loosening any bolts and see if a slight adjustment would help. If you decide to make some permanent adjustments just do each direction seperately only loosening those bolts. Only loosen the...

    FIRST LOOK: Dish 500+ Dish 1000+ and the Dish 1000.2!

    Are we sure the 119/118 lnb doesn't have individual outputs for each sat? Would explain the need for a DPP44 switch on the 1000+ (110, 118, 119, 129).
