Can I connect 2 TV's to an HR-24 Receiver? 1 is HDMI, 1 will be Coaxial The second TV is in an adjacent room so all I have to feed it from the receiver will be a Coax. I realize the 2nd TV will not be getting HD feed. Any help is appreciated. FF

DNS - I was using an Infrared converter for remote (dont recall the brand). My wife changed the battery's and mistakenly thru the "transmitter battery cell" away thinking it was a battery! All of my DIRECTV receivers are outdated. One went bad and they cannot send me a replacement as they are...

Thanks Mike - I was not aware of the HDMI splitters - I will look into that. Do you use one remote for both rooms? FF

I have 2 TV's in 2 separate rooms connected to one DIRECTV H20-100 Receiver. The rooms are back to back and receiver connection is in a shared closet to both rooms. One is connected via the HDMI output the other via the component video output. They both watch the same channel. I am...

Thanks for all of the feedback on Diplexers. I figured that the was kind of 'old school'...but he is willing to come to my house and make sure the dish has a clear shot to the satellite without me signing up first. (I've been told by Dish that I need to subscribe - then they will send someone to...

I spoke with local installer today. I'm considering Dish and told him I wanted Two 222Duos for 1 HD and 1 SD upsatirs and 1 HD and 1 SD downstairs. (No DVR) Anyway I asked how the duo works as far as feeding 2 TV's and he said I would need to run an additional line from the HD TV to the room...

Chip - Does that mean by receiving a replacement for a faulty receiver my contract will auto renew!!?? Thanks.FF

I tried resetting the receiver several times. Thanks for the advice on replacement receiver potentially initiating new contract. I was told that it would not because I have no current contract but I do have the monthly maintenance agreement which allows me replacement without contract renewal...

Looking for some diagnostic help. H20 receiver is ~4yrs old or more: HDTV with H20 Receiver working last night. This evening turned on and nothing but audio. Turnedon DVD player and working fine. Connected the DVD HDMI and connect to the H20...no video just audio. Tried Component video out of...

Hmm..... Was pricing things out with DISH and was told their 211 receiver (the one they were suggesting) would not work in that manner. Was told that if HDMI was connected then the component video would not work. I have been considering switching to DISH from Directv. Currently have a Directv...

On single tuner HD DISH receiver.......Can the HDMI and the Component Video outputs be used at same time? Thanks. FF

Thanks for the Diagram..... I was in discussion with DISH for pricing etc. and was told that on their single tuner receivers the outputs are "switching" ie; if you are using the HDMI output to an HD TV then the other outputs are "off". This would not allow me to mirror feed the TV in the...

Hello - I have been a Directv subscriber for ~10yrs. and have been thinking of switching to DISH. Mainly trying to cut short term costs through introductory offers etc. I called Directv last night to try in essence to re-sign up (currently not under contract with them) with one of the promo...

Thanks lf88. Today I wall mounted a 32" HD LCD in bedroom that is pretty much back to back to the alcove in living room where I have DIRECTV HD20-100 receiver and a HD TV. I put in 2 "old work" duplex receptacle boxes directly behind the 32" wall mount (120V and the other for A/V)...

Enough said.

Thanks. I'll check out Startech.... As far as the D_tv and the D_H..... its called an underscore....what I used before I saw the D* and E* others use in posts. Should I just be saying straight up DirecTv and DISH ? Just a new user here trying to get some insight....thanks for yours

I posted this on the D__H forum and would like to see what feedback I get on the D__tv side....... I currently am long time subscriber to D_tv and considering switching to D__H so that I can take advantage of promo offers and reduce my long term monthly cost as much as possible. Current...

Any recommendation on where to get diplexers? Does D_v use diplexers or just DISH? Is there any relevance to the location of these dual receivers and using a remote - distance/walls etc.? Is there a good affordable universal remote I can buy and program so I can leave one each of the "duplicate"...

Thanks to all for the replies. I was hoping not to hav to drill any more holes in the deck. I guess I'll see...I plan on calling D-v this weekend to discuss cancellation. I hate to say it but I have the same old gripes - never anything worth watching, tired of a $100 a month bill and I hate...

Hello - I am thinking of switching to Dish and have a couple of questions. Will DTv want me to send the entire dish and mount back to them? If not will Dish's dish fit the Dtv Mount pole? I have the Dtv 5LB mounted to a back deck and it has the curved pole with the 2 support braces screwed to...
