    DVR HR21-Is there a way to configure video output?

    as in when I try to record an HD program on a non-HD DVD recorder (to "down convert" to 480i). For now, I just want to get a really good SD recording to play on standard DVD players. Is there a way to do this? My experience is that the HD shows (football games) don't record very well even...

    Poor quality using 625 for non HD on new Samsung 56" DLP???

    Does anyone have a Samsung 56" DLP, model hlr5668w? If so, are you getting a good picture with your Dish 625 hooked up? Mine sucks (at least ESPN and ESPN2 - anything with sports motion). Is there any issues with the 625 because it is a DVR where the picture quality will suffer when hooking...

    Good internet TV stores?

    I'm going to buy a Samsung DLP 56" TV in the near future, and brick and morder shops cannot touch the internet stores (no sales tax helps, but base price is also way cheaper). Any suggestions on where? Or horror stories on where NOT? Thanks!

    local channel options?

    Dish doesn't carry my local channels in their system. Is there any way I can get other NBC, ABC, CBS and FOX? Someone suggested changing my service address to Minneapolis or St. Paul (I'm in Rochester) but I'm not real interested in that ... won't the phone line detect where the reciever...

    Does Tivo work with DishNetwork?

    This might be how I can get around the 625 DVR functions not working with my basic cable provided local stations ... if Tivo will work with Dish (maybe not since they are tight with DirectTv), maybe I can plug in my satellite output as well as cable into Tivo? Not sure if Tivo can reconcile...

I live in an area where I don't get Local channels (Rochester, MN), so my only option is to keep cable for them or get an antenna (I kept basic cable). The only...
