    Does anyone know what this is and cause?

    There have been numerous threads about this issue on DBS, dating back a good 3 to 4 months. This issue has been going on for a long time and it isnt your equipment. Its a D* MPEG-4 issue and it isnt going to go away until D* fixes it.

    audio stuttering and glitches on all HD channels

    All this stuff has been going on for months now. I dont exactly get glitches every minute like the OP is stating, but glitches nonetheless. Video and audio, everyday, without fail. I see it on all 3 of my setups, and I see it on every other D* HD setup Ive looked at in the last few months...

    More Audio Sync Issues -- Need Help

    Please refer to my a, b, and c scenarios as outlined in post #19. I forgot to mention option D though: The guy whose favorite steak is a chuck steak and will settle for anything :) And dont forget option E either: The guy that has a secretly vested interest in Directv and would wallow in...

    More Audio Sync Issues -- Need Help

    I have made 8 posts on this site in the past 17 months. In one of them I made mention of you, that was today. And for the record a 1.3 cable does help, it certainly does not eliminate the problem. Directv has had sync issues on their HD channels since at least mid 2003. Its posted all over...

    More Audio Sync Issues -- Need Help

    I cant say I know 50 D* HD subs, but I know at least a dozen. I also know at least a dozen people with Charter HD. Everyone I know has audio sych issues with D* HD from the beginning of time, including myself. Everyone I know that has Charter HD never has audio sync isues, including...

    MPEG4 HD Channels - now lower quality?

    Well, I would say that all the transponders on 103(c) are at an acceptable level, the lowest being 79. What Im seeing doesent look like signal issues to me at all.

    MPEG4 HD Channels - now lower quality?

    Yeah I looked over at Lyngsat and it is on 103, but I dont know what transponder, so I really cant check it. I did go and check all transponders on 103, but when I go to the signal test screen it shows 103(s), and 103(c). Im not sure what this means but on 103(s) Im showing 4 active...

    MPEG4 HD Channels - now lower quality?

    I dont know how to tell what transponder/satt that channel is on. Let me know and I will check. Tx

    MPEG4 HD Channels - now lower quality?

    I just came back to D* about 6 weeks ago, been pretty impressed with the MPEG-4 channels for the most part. When I do see see pixelation/motion artifacting I pretty much chalk it up to bad source material. MPEG-2 channels are hideous though! lol Anyways, just a few days ago I decided to take...

    A&E HD - Low Signal - TP27 on 129

    It is pro rated based on how long you had the service before cancelling. I believe the full amount is $250, but I could be mistaken there. My fee was actually $162, I had paid $20 of it and had planned on paying $20 a month until it was payed off. Before I could do that they sent me to...

    A&E HD - Low Signal - TP27 on 129

    I cant believe how many problems DISH is having with that 129, and that they are moving forward with more HD channels that will rely on that broken down piece of crap. To me its to the point where a class action lawsuit is in order. They have people paying top $$$ for all their HD, and their...

    RSN's HD no longer to be spot beamed ?

    Oh yeah, I understand that. The person that mentioned it was referring to the RSN sports pack though, as near as I could tell...

    RSN's HD no longer to be spot beamed ?

    Wouldnt all pro games just be blacked out as they are right now in SD? I cant see that being a big draw really.

    RSN's HD no longer to be spot beamed ?

    I suppose they probably have, but I would think the ability to offer HD RSN's to an entire RSN viewing region would be a goldmine. Right now here in Michigan FSN Detroit HD is only avaialable on a very few cable systems outside of the Detroit area. I despise D*, but I would move over to them...

    RSN's HD no longer to be spot beamed ?

    Oh of course not, they wont announce anything. They might actually make money out of an official announcement :0 What sense would that make?

    Who the hell is TvBob? LOL..Im assuming its an inside joke of some sort?

    RSN's HD no longer to be spot beamed ?

    Couldnt agree more, outside of a paid sports package (Sunday Ticket/MLBEI etc.) RSN's will proably never become available on a nationwide basis, in SD, HD or otherwise. All I want is FSN-Detroit HD up here 250 miles north of Detroit where I get FSN-Detroit is SD. I believe D* will rectify...

    RSN's HD no longer to be spot beamed ?

    Like I was saying, its only common sense. No, I dont know anything for a fact, just as no one else does. And Im not talking about anyone in California getting full time NESNHD, the chances of that ever happening are slim to none. Im talking about them making the HD RSN's available outside of...

    RSN's HD no longer to be spot beamed ?

    I would call it a pretty safe bet that they will address the RSN HD situation very quickly when the new satts are ready. Directv has always been about catering to the sports fan, I highly doubt thats going to change. No one here knows for a fact, this much is true. I think we all have enough...

    RSN's HD no longer to be spot beamed ?

    Hmmm...Thats ridiculous that their employees are teling you this. At the time FSD-HD was added to D* they put out a clear and concise announcement as to what counties would be getting the HD feed. Lucas county definitely wasnt included. I remember calling them to check and make sure I...

    RSN's HD no longer to be spot beamed ?

    Why dont you just change your service address to the Detroit area Jimbo? I suspect maybe its because you dont want to lose all your Ohio SD RSN's?

    Would Losing Distant Nets Cause You to Switch to DirecTV?

    I would not switch to Directv if they were the last HD provider on Earth, regardless of any circumstances.. I would rather have nothing than have Directv.
