    Finally signed up....Disappointed

    So I got DirecTV hooked up last Friday, but I am disappointed in the picture quality. I have mid to upper 90s signal strength, the DVRs are set to 1080i output and I am hooked up with HDMI. The problem is that on premium HD channels I'm seeing a lot of compression artifacts and on all HD...

    AAA discount?

    So if my wife signs up for DirecTV over the internet, can she the call prior to install and add the AAA discount or can you only get the AAA discount at the time of ordering?

    2 DVRS and MRV?

    Can I have two HD DVRs and one HD Receiver and use MRV from every box? What I mean is can I view recordings from one DVR to the other DVR or only from an HD Receiver? Can I view recordings from both DVRs on the HD Receiver?

    So...I requested a SWM. Will I get one?

    I ordered service from D* and requested two HR23-700s, a standard HD receiver and a SWM Dish. All was notated on my work orders. I know that this was notated because I called back and a different CSR read the notes and all the info was there. Then she went on to say that she can't promise...

    Thinking about going back to D*. PQ any better?

    I am thinking about going back to D*. I left a few years ago, prior to the Mpeg 4 rollout because of picture quality. Has the HD picture drastically improved on D* since '06-'07? Is it still "HD-lite"? Thanks.
