    MLB.tv and spring training

    Directv just charged 1st installment for MLB Extra Innings. Was hoping to be able to watch some spring training games on MLB.tv (that comes free with EI) but it keeps saying I don't have a subscription. When I try linking my account by selecting cable provider, message keeps saying it wasn't...

    Issues with RC71 remote/Genie client

    Well, if it's now a known issue, that makes me feel better. Hopefully it will get figured out soon then.

    Issues with RC71 remote/Genie client

    I've had this issue since I had DTV installed last February. Every so often (twice a week or so) the remotes for my clients lose their RF setting. They will turn TV on and control volume but have no control over DTV. When I first encountered this problem, I contacted DTV, had a couple...

    Question about recording and watching simultaneous shows

    Last night I had a show scheduled to record at 9:00 on a local network channel. Was watching a ballgame and received popup saying that I either had to change to the channel I wanted to record or cancel the recording. I thought you could record 4-5 shows at once with Direct. I only had this...

    MLB Extra Innings and land line phone?

    I am interested in signing up for Extra Innings but I keep seeing that you must have a land line phone. Is this really true? They say the reason is to keep track of location for blackouts but many people don't have landlines these days. Just want to verify before signing up and finding out...

    Trouble with recording shows

    Yes, I checked at the time and looked again this morning to see if any other shows recorded. Only the program I was aware of recorded. We have 3 clients but I was the only one up at the time and the other TV's were off. Edit-Realized below that I said I have 4 clients. Have 4 TV's...one...

    Trouble with recording shows

    I was watching baseball last night when a pop up appeared on the screen saying that a recording was scheduled at 9 (in about 5 minutes) and basically said I had to tune to that channel or not do the recording (I had no other recordings scheduled at all). I am a fairly new customer (about 2...

    MLB Extra Innings and MLB.tv

    Just saw that DTV is including access to MLB.tv with Extra Innings package this year. Anyone know if there are options for people like myself who already signed up for MLB.tv?

    New DTV customer...client issues

    Just wanted to clarify what "fix" I've found in case others are having this problem. Main issue is definitely that the remote/client are automatically switching from RF to IR mode. What is causing this? I don't have a clue and DTV reps don't seem to either. Here are the steps I've taken to...

    New DTV customer...client issues

    It's an RC71...doesn't have any sliders. It's just my wife and I at home and we aren't messing with the settings at all. I'll let you know what the guy says tonight.

    New DTV customer...client issues

    What kind of human error could it be? I don't mess with the settings at all. Turn on the TV, start watching...later you may try to pull up the guide or change the channel and it doesn't work. A couple of days later, it may work again. Not saying I'm beyond an error...just don't know what it...

    New DTV customer...client issues

    Still fighting this problem. Tech came out Friday and met with my wife. He said the remote/client are switching from RF to IR and that is causing the remote not to operate the client. He got that reset and left his phone number. Of course problem reoccurred. I called him back and he is...

    Authorizing twitter app

    When I try to authorize twitter app, it fails every time. Facebook connected with no problem. I've double checked email associated with twitter, logged out and back in to twitter. Don't see anything wrong...any ideas?

    New DTV customer...client issues

    So, the techs come out today (in a heavy snowstorm) and the clients are working perfectly. They weren't working Saturday, Sunday or went I left for work this morning. Tech didn't have any answers except that a software download may have caused the issue. One of those times where the issue is...

    New DTV customer...client issues

    I've tried all the above with no luck. Client worked yesterday when the installer left. He's coming back Tuesday so I guess I'll wait until then. Kind of scary because I googled this issue and it seems like quite a few people have issues with client boxes randomly not working. Maybe they...

    New DTV customer...client issues

    Had DTV genie with 3 clients hooked up yesterday. All went well. This morning, one of the clients wasn't working. Gave the "no signal" screen. Checked all connections, reset the client, later unhooked the client from power altogether and tried resetting that way. Called tech support...they...

    Regional Sports Networks

    Thinking of switching to Direct TV from Comcast. Here is one issue that makes me hesitant. On Comcast, we get Comcast Sports Net-Chicago and Fox Sports MW-St. Louis. We get Cubs baseball on CSN and Cardinal games on FSM. I signed up for DISH a few years ago and, when speaking to the rep...
