    Directv stream 4k live channels added

    Thanks on the work-around options for the FOX 4K events... I did not think of going to their App..... The White Sox 4K games are a loss I guess, although one of the games this week is on Ch. 106 so we get it on Stream... Sort of ironic given this Sunday's game was lost since it was on 107.

    Directv stream 4k live channels added

    Thanks, did not know..... I do see a PR issue when higher profile events, like some simultaneous World Cup games get the overflow channels 107 and 108. But yeah, I know that's way in the future.

    Directv stream 4k live channels added

    This past weekend there were live 4K sports on DTV Satellite chs. 107 & 108.... but DTV Stream did not get them because the 4K channels on Stream stop at Channel 106. Is this a technical glitch that the Stream engineers need to fix ?

    DISH Hacked - Websites are BACK ONLINE!

    Same here ! Just got an e-mail saying that my account is past due and to pay the amount due "to restore your service." I've been on auto-pay since 2008 and have had no paper bills since then. Auto-payment was due today 3-8-23; no debit from my bank account has been taken. The e-mail has a...

    DirecTV Latin America forced to walk away from its Venezuela uplink facility

    It appears that DirecTV was the main, if not the only, source for TV news and entertainment for the Presidential Palace and for the government buildings, in addition to serving most of the population basically for free. El Nuevo Herald has been reporting that they are now basically disconnected...

    DirecTV Latin America forced to walk away from its Venezuela uplink facility

    Source: El Nuevo Herald (Miami, Florida) has been writing extensively on this issue this week--- www.elnuevoherald.com. They explain how the government forced DTV to subsidize their service (for pennies) in order to keep the population indoors occupied. The reason given by DTV in the press...

    DirecTV Latin America forced to walk away from its Venezuela uplink facility

    Streaming ? Are you kidding ? In Venezuela most homes are lucky if they have electricity for more than a couple of hours a day .... and running water. Millions have fled to neighboring countries as refugees. Satellite TV was government price-capped at about 50 cents per month. DTV was...

    The OFFICIAL DISH / HBO Thread

    He's a moron because you do not like his humor ? Bill Maher is the main reason I subscribe to HBO. Nothing to do with politics. Just a smart, well-rounded, well-produced show.

    dish movie pack now only 10 channels ... ?

    I have the DISH Movie Pack and I'm still getting the 5 channels removed. Is this supposed to happen in the future or is it a glitch in their system ? I also have AT250 as base package if that helps.

    World Cup in 4K?

    We have already had "broadcast TV/ local stations" sports events available in 4K, such as many CBS golf tournaments.... And now the World Cup games whose "broadcast TV/ local stations" rights are owned by FOX affiliates and TELEMUNDO affiliates...... Therefore, the Super Bowl should not...

    World Cup in 4K?

    Yes, I totally agree and hope so as well ... Isn't it incredible that FIFA will be cranking out 64 live World Cup games in 4K HDR to the whole world and the NFL has yet to put out the Super Bowl, much less any regular NFL games, in 4K HDR in the USA ???

    World Cup in 4K?

    This is not correct... Please check your facts before posting this stuff.... The Swanni article linked to the DirecTV website only lists games thru June 24th and in that initial list 17 games in 4K HDR are from the FOX BROADCAST NETWORK, the remaining 11 are from FS 1.... There will obviously...

    The Repackage

    Yes, it worked ! I re-ran the OTA setup on my DTV AM-21 and now I have the 3 OTA re-packed stations again (after losing them last Friday when they changed their RF frequencies).... What a fantastic surprise to see the AM-21 being able to find the new re-pack frequencies for these 3 stations...

    The Repackage

    Thanks, HoTat ! I will try your suggestion to reset all the OTA channels on the AM-21 by clearing out all its OTA memory, reboot it, and start the set-up process again from scratch to see if it picks up the new repack frequencies for the 3 stations which moved on Friday.....

    The Repackage

    I have already checked the FCC "Repacking Dates" website and the 3 Miami stations that moved on Friday were definitely part of the repack... They did not move for any reason other than the repack as they were protected FP's with already assigned new frequencies... The repack period they were...

    The Repackage

    No, I did not lose the 3 stations because of any station lower power issues, I lost them because DirecTV's AM-21 OTA tuner has pre-set the frequencies in their database for these stations and they are the "old" frequencies before the repack.... Thus, when the 3 stations moved on Friday the DTV...

    The Repackage

    Hi HoTat, here in South Florida we just had 3 stations repacked on Friday (6-1-18) and move to their new RF frequencies....So now my DirecTV AM-21 is no longer picking them up.... Do you know whether the new DirecTV OTA database updates being monitored at The Edgecutter Forum are being updated...

    Odd breakup of OTA channels on only one receiver

    Same issue here..... My two Hopper 3's (no 4K setup) handles the OTA channels without any problems..... But the Joey 2's connected to them started breaking up the OTA channels about 8 months ago..... Totally unwatchable, breakups and pixelations every few seconds..... The Joey 2's had been...

    HR24 acting up, but only on two channels

    I agree with your theory, they have to be doing something unique that is affecting our receivers.....Same thing happened with my HR-24 this past Monday after it was "fixed" last time.... I see it on BBC World News- Ch. 346 which is the channel I watch the most.... There is no SD version I can go...

    H3 no information available in guide

    What makes me think this is a national problem ? Perhaps the fact that the posters here are not all posting from the same town, that's why.... Either way, this site is supposed to be the "friendly" site... Not the place where we're chastised for reporting an obviously legitimate problem....
