    HD Channels

    As the number of owners of HDTV's climbs so will the HD broadcast content offered. Networks hoping to survive in a competitive world will lose viewers without providing increased HD broadcasting. Whether the Cable or Satellite providers are able to keep pace by having the necessary bandwidth...

    New Channels Next Week?

    Since many of these networks are still not broadcasting a lot of their programs in HD I guess most of us would welcome more HD content from the networks over how many channels are capable of displaying HD. Now that would be progress.

    Will Directv give free HD locals ?

    They can! Just simply raise the monthly base subscription cost accordingly and tell you HD locals are included "free". Come on get real. Anyone you pay a fee to for service is not giving you anything for free it is included in the cost. Advertisers love pople like yourself who think otherwise.:D

    How much HD CONTENT are we getting?

    Absolutely amazing! I have been visiting these forums for a few years now and all the constant rant was more HD. Now that there is more HD (which will continue to grow) we are seeing arguments for dropping HD. It just proves forums are the breeding ground of whiners. But I guess that comes as...

    So now dates for the next set of HD stations?

    So where did all the whiners, snifflers and conspiracy theorists and naysayers from last week go?

    Missing B-Band Converter...

    Why don't you order the free ones and get that going. If you find one locally for sale and don't want to wait then you'll have spares.

    Compensation for the Directv Lies?

    One has to wonder what ranting, raving, babbling, nonsensical childish immature prattle will flow from his keyboard after October 1st (along with his trademark periods)................:D

    Compensation for the Directv Lies?

    I often wondered where those who have no life gathered. Now I know. Another great mystery of life solved.

    Compensation for the Directv Lies?

    Unfortunately that's the thought process of the clueless who have no knowledge or understanding of tort law or what is involved or the grounds for such action. DTV's appropriate answer to this kind of foolish statement would be "Go ahead sue! There is no legal standing or foundation." :D In...

    Very dissapointed in D*

    "In September" is the company's "Official" public statement, and not some interpretation of a CSR response posted in a forum. The month has 30 days not 19. If Oct 1st comes with no expansion then everyones' complaining has validity.:up

    Very dissapointed in D*

    The official voice of the company is its public information and promotions officer. The CRS's are certainly not the official voice of any major corporation. To believe otherwise is foolhardy at best. They are low paid worker bee's who are under allot of pressure from callers and who are...

    Very dissapointed in D*

    I may have missed something here, but I don't recall EVER seeing an official announcement from DTV that today or any specific date for that matter was the launch date for HD expansion. What I have seen in here is a bunch of people feeding off each others rumors and claims of insider information...

    Problem on the 103b ,,Help!

    Why don't you simply wait until the test phase is over before wringing your hands and panicking over your readings?

    networking

    Somewhere in these forums I saw a step-by-step Networking set-up for WMP11 sharing between your WIN XP pc and the HR-20; but I can't find that string. I have a wireless home network in place with a main PC and router and three other PC's on the wireless network. How do I add the HR-20 via...

    Owned HR10-250 upgrade to HR20 best deal

    Amazing how some people expect something for nothing like it they earn it by subscribing. Kinda like going to your local gas station and demanding gasoline for the same price as last year cuz you buy there all the time. Amazing.:rolleyes:

    Why does volume level vary so much?

    The thing I have noticed on some channels is the volume goes way up when a commercial comes on.

    I am getting HR20 - Is it stable now?

    It always been stable for me. Had mine since September 06 and it has functioned perfectly.

    VOD For DTV

    Doesn't sound like it: DirecTV subscribers with the company’s high-definition DVR receiver and a high-speed modem connection will be able to access more than 2,000 on-demand movies — many of which will be in high-definition — as well as the cable-network content. Shanks said DirecTV will...

    Be careful with your h20 swapouts

    I have both an H-20 and an HR-20 for which I paid nothing. Got the H-20 in August and the HR-20 in September. Saw all those people paying a couple of hundred bucks early on from Value and others just to be the first to have one. Renewed 2 yr contract on the original HD upgrade in August...
