    HBO On Demand?

    Blows my mind too. HBO is most popular premium network. Hell, it was the first! You may also notice the paltry D* lineup as well, and the two measly HD channels. There clearly is some major issue between the two. It could stem from the fact HBO is owned by Time Warner, and D* is their competitor.

    PIXILATING LOCALS - HD ONLY

    I am having the exact same problem here in Phoenix! Signal levels are normal (in the high 70s and 80s) on most transponders. It is happening on the local channels in both HD and SD and on both of my receivers. No other channels are affected, just the locals. It's driving me so crazy I have had...

    NO HBO On Demand...

    It seems like every cable system in the country has HBO On Demand and it is kind of silly for D* to not offer it. I am sure there have been some disappointed new subscribers.

    Changing channels on my HR21-200 is painfully slow.

    APPLY NOW: DirecTV iPhone Field Trial (SIGNUP CLOSED)

    Oh great, I botched my submission! I put my Iphone serial number in instead of the identifier. When I tried to resubmit with the correct one it said I was already in the database. Should I assume that it did not update that field?

    H21-100 & -200 CE Release 12/19 0x42A7

    Ok, I do have a MAC address so that isn't the problem. To be honest I think it just doesn't like my bridge, although, no other device I've used with it has had a problem. I tested my theory by connecting it to a secondary router that is not connected to the internet and it actually did pull an...

    H21-100 & -200 CE Release 12/19 0x42A7

    How is it that everyone's network is working and mine won't? I am wondering if I have a bad ethernet port on the H21...

    H21-100 & -200 CE Release 12/19 0x42A7

    This is my first time downloading a CE to my H21-200 since July (HR21-200 is a different story). My motivation was to try out the MRV. Since my H21 is not near my router like my HR21 i, I decided to use a D-LInk DWL-G820 gaming adapter/bridge. That bridge is literally "bridged" and I can surf...

    My Directv looks like Youtube

    I have to agree with the OP, Directv's SD channels are hideous! Not quite as bad as Youtube, but pretty close. Because of that, I will only watch their HD channels. The same goes for Starz on demand (SD)movies. I won't watch them because the compression is way too high.

    Directv Broadcasting WDSU NBC 6 on channel 361

    Because they are not airing network programming and commercials that would conflict with stations in other DMAs.

    d11

    P Smith, it would be very helpful if you added a non-technical description to your technical explanations. Also, the use of abbreviations that we are not familiar with doesn't help either. The vast majority of us have almost no idea about what it is that your talking about. It makes your...

    Signal strength for the 103 (c) sat

    The dish is on the roof and I don't have a ladder. I am renting the house so it's not really worth it to me to buy one. Does Directv charge for service calls?

    Signal strength for the 103 (c) sat

    I live in Phoenix and I happened to notice that the signal strength for the 103 (c) sat on all transponders seems really low. Generally the values are in the 60s and 70s with an absolute clear view of the sky. Is this normal? I never really had any problems until just a couple weeks ago when we...

    MPEG4 HD Channels - now lower quality?

    When I lived in Houston 6 months ago and had Comcast, the HD quality was decent. Here in Phoenix, I get some clear QUAM channels that pass through my Cox connection that I use only for internet. Most of those channels are our local affiliates and the quality is really really really bad. So much...

    DirecTV On Demand, very disappointed.

    I noticed that when I am downloading VOD content my connection is not being saturated. Meaning Directv is not pushing the content out at full speed like they could. Also, I want HD VOD for the movie channels. Currently the PQ on the SD movies is so bad that I will not watch them. Waaaay too...

    How do i order Directv from canada

    Bluegrass, the fraud and piracy statement from Directv seems geared towards those that are causing a loss in revenue to Directv. The Canadian is technically not causing a loss to Directv's bottom line because he is actually paying for the service. Ultimately if someone was ever caught, more...

    Is DirecTV MPEG4 PQ declining?

    It seemed like it was declining about two months ago, but then it went back to "normal". I have Cox cable for internet and some of their unencrypted QUAM channels pass through the filter on my line. Most of the channels are my local HDs, and let me tell you that the difference between Directv...

    New CE Feature: Welcome To Widgets

    Very odd, I have this past weekends CE, a functional network connection (I get VOD), and an HR21-200, and I still can't get the "coming soon" bar by pressing the right arrow. When I press it nothing happens. Maybe I'll try a reboot when I'm not recording.....

    New CE Feature: Welcome To Widgets

    I was not selected either, however, I have last nights CE and I can't see a thing? I'm supposed to see something, right? Also, i'm not sure if this has anything to do with it, but i accidentally put my access card number in instead of the RID when I signed up. The weird thing is that it...

    No, I just want to know how to do this: 05 - Send Diagnostics Report: requires IAMANEDGECUTTER keyword search to be enabled *** Network must be properly set up and working to use this feature *** Use the Menu+Info keys to get to the Misc Options screen Select the Report option Click on...

    HR20-700 & HR21-ALL CE Release 5/30

    how do you do the diag thingy? The notes are a little confusing. Do i do a keyword search for IAMANEDGECUTTER, and then do i press the menu and info buttons simultaneously?

    Signal Trouble on certain channels

    You are not alone. I am getting the same message on Fox Reality and Comedy Central. There may be more but I just haven't flipped through them all yet. It should be noted that I have an HR21-200 and the latest CE. UPDATE: Reboot fixed it.

    HR21-ALL CE Release Tuesday 4/1 ONLY - No Joke

    Last night my scheduled recording of Men In Trees was blank. In other words it recorded but was just a gray screen for an hour.
