    Already have FIOS Internet & Phone - how difficult to add TV?

    Thanks for that awesome response JPL. I am switching to all HD from having 2 HD and 2 SD boxes so I will make sure to inquire about the HDMI. Did they provide the HDMI wire for free as part of the installation? Our DirecTv is connected from the dish to a multi-switch then to the various...

    Already have FIOS Internet & Phone - how difficult to add TV?

    We are supposed to have someone add TV to our existing FIOS Internet & Phone. How much work do they have to do to switch from DirecTv to FIOS TV? They aren't going to run new cable right? Don't they just have to take the outside cable wires off the DirecTv dish and connect them to the FIOS...

    HD Feeds and RSN feeds I haven't been reading these posts because I'm swamped with work and going back to school, but I see the CI appears to be set up for HD with a -1 Channel for every game but only To Be Announced in the description. Has anyone gotten an update on their plans? When I...

    NHL Center Ice, Any HD Broadcasts, Home and Away Feeds ??

    When I first got CI years ago, if you paid for CI you got to watch the games on the NHL Channels (700's) or on the RSN. Then, one year they changed it so when the game started, you had to go to the 700's to watch the game, but the last few years it was back to if you paid for the game you could...

    New Directv HD on their website

    Software update Last night, my wife noticed we couldn't access our HD channels so she called D*. I'm not sure I believe this, but the CSR she got told her that they had just updated the software for the new HD channels and some customers would have to call to get them to reset something. Just...

    Big Ten Channel Active

    Big 10 I was looking through the guide last nite and noticed it showed 219 as an alternate Big10 with the Northwestern game listed and channel 221 as another alternate Big10 with Penn State listed. Does this mean they will show both of these games on those channels or is that only if you live...

    FSN & MASN Full screen on HDTV

    I have HR-20's also. I'll check the settings again, but you'd think it would affect every channel not just a select few. Thanks for the feedback though.

    FSN & MASN Full screen on HDTV

    Has anyone noticed some of the FSN and Regional Sports networks are showing up as full screen even though they are not HD? Its not a setting on my tv either because most of the FSN channels still have the sidebars. Last nite I was watching the Big 10 preview on FSN Pittsburgh and even though...

    Odd changes: Resolution Settings Reset

    Has anyone noticed a problem in the last 3 or 4 days? I have 4 TV's 2 of which are HD and all are connected to DirecTV. Tuesday evening, I went to watch one of the HD TV's and the screen resolution had been reset to 480 and the Guide appeared to have shifted to the right. I went to the HD TV...

    Buff/Ott game NOT on NBC

    NBC, really shows how far hockey has fallen in the US. Fortunately, I can pick up channel 4 (washington nbc feed) in hd so I could watch the game. But don't think the local ABC affiliate was any better 2 years ago when they had the nhl playoff games. Then, ABC channel 2 in baltimore showed a...

    Red Wings game on 95 in guide but not

    What's up with DirecTV and the NHL Playoffs? The game tonite is supposed to be on ch 95 but there's just the logo screen and the music. What good is having HD if they're not going to show the damn game? Rob

    FSN Pittsburgh NHL blackout

    I don't think you get to watch professional sports games with the Fox Sports Package on D*. When it was baseball season, could you watch Pirates games? I have the Sports Pack and that allows me to watch any Fox Sports across the country except when a game is being shown that is part of a...

    CBS - NFL today

    CBS should relinquish their rights to televising NFL Games. They only show 3 games per week in HD. What a p. o. c. network. They're an outright joke. C'mon CBS, spend some of that money from those horrible reality shows that the morons watch.

    I'm getting new D-TV dish w/local HD, anything to be on the lookout for?

    D*TV is installing a new line into my recently finished basement along with changing the HD receiver upstairs to the new 5 line w/local HD channels and getting rid of the antenna on top of my house. Has anyone had this done recently? Is there anything I should be on the lookout for? The...

    Are *PRESEASON* NHL games blacked out on Sports Pack?

    The St Louis Blues preseason game was blacked out in the mid atlantic last nite. I was able to see the NY Rangers - Boston Bruins game though. I think its silly to black out preseason games anyway. You'd think the NHL would use the preseason to entice viewers to watch the regular season...

    Are *PRESEASON* NHL games blacked out on Sports Pack?

    Sorry for being a Johnny come lately, but I noticed the same thing as a long time CI subscriber so I emailed DirecTv and here is the response I got: Dear Mr. Brooks, Thank you for writing. We offer Regional Sports Networks (RSNs) from across the nation, which show professional, college...

    Receving HD Local with Antenna from DirecTV

    Just wanted to get some feedback on this, I bought the HD package from DirecTV in September including the $50 antenna. It was hooked up and everything appeared to be ok except that I live 10 minutes outside of Baltimore and I could only get the Wash DC HD local channels. After haggling with...
