Has anyone ever tried using one of these to capture HD from? Blackmagic Design: Intensity I believe the card will not decrypt HDCP but it would be nice if we could archive HD broadcast from our satellite boxes. If someone were able to interface this with MCE (and your hardware was...

You're telling me...now only if those Red Sox would lose a game or too to make it interesting....Don't flame me Red Sox fans:) Hopefully, when the new channels light up, out of market viewers will be able to watch all of the Yankees in HD...and all the other MLB games as well.

I actually was asked to pay full price by retention while ordering a new HR20. I have been an EI subscriber for 5 years. Have they posted this renewal informations on their website yet? I can't seem to find it.

You know, I actually disagree with most of the people in this thread. Baseball is generating the kind of dollars right now to pay these salaries. Would you rather see the owners get even more filthy rich by putting a salary cap in place. And to be honest, do you really think it would help the...

Sports Programming including Sunday Ticket and MLB Extra Innings (which gives me several Yankee games in HD) and my Tivo based upgraded (via PTV-Upgrade) DVRs. Also, Directv's Customer Retention has upgraded my equipment for free (I have 2 SD DVRs and 2 HD DVRs) for the last 3 years. I am...

Nashville OTA looked good and sounded good. I did think ABC's looked a little sharper last year. (probably due to 720P vs NBC's 1080i)

Anyone watching the Yankee vs Seattle game on Channel 95 this evening? For some reason it is not HD. (Even though the guide says it is) Are they having technical difficulties? I also am not watching the game live (I just got home) and it appears the broadcast did not start until the 2 outs...

One of my SD directv tivos stayed unplugged for about 6 weeks while we remodeled a new media room. The tivo kept all of the programming. The only thing I had to do was call Directv because it appeared to deactivate. The call took a few minutes and the receiver work as normal when I hooked it up.

I have to say that I am a happy D* customer. One thing that I have not heard mentioned in this thread is the customer retention dept. from D*. They have always gone above and beyond to keep me happy with what they can provide. I currently have two HD DVRs (Mpeg2 Tivos) with the first one...

XM hands down because of MLB and NHL NFL and its 16 game season is best watched on TV. (I don't know too many people that have a football parties and listen to NFL games on the radio) Also, I'd rather pay for Sunday Ticket when it comes to NFL than pay for a Sirius subscription. Baseball, with...

Blackouts on ESPN Something definintely did change this year with ESPN. I live in Nashville which is considered Braves, Cardinals, and Reds territory. (Even though they are all in different states and about 4 hours away) Luckily I am a dreaded Yankee fan but I am also a baseball fan that can...

Fusion TV Gold USB Unfortunately, there is not a way to get your OTA HD signal from your set top box to your laptop. There are several very expensive solutions but nothing really practical. It interested check out the HTPC section in the AVS forum. There are some other ways to do this...

On Monday the ESPN feed of the Braves-Dodgers game were blacked out too in the Nashville TN area. The ESPN feed has never been blacked out in the past. It was only showing in SD on Fox Sports South. How can they black out the ESPN network...does this mean they re-negociated their contract...

Hey I saw lines too but it seems they have fixed it. However, here is something interesting. I am watching YES now and they were showing highlights of the Phillies-Cardinals game (I believe that is what was on channel 647) The highlights had lines also. ....Maybe this means that it actually...

Blackouts are are big pet peeve of mine also. We are in a day and age that the technology should be available to provide the paying customer access to these games. I am a huge baseball fan and subscribe to XM, MLB.tv, and MLB Extra Innings on Directv and there have still been some big games...

YES network sent me a reply I forwarded a question to YES network and here was their reply. It's nice to hear that the Yankees Batting Practice will not be blacked out. However, there unfortunately is not a definite way to determine what HD baseball games will be available on DirecTV from...

Thread for Upconverting DVD Players Here is a pretty good thread on just about every upconverting player available. http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=423609&page=1&pp=30 Unfortunately, my Neo-digits did not rate very high by some of the users. However, I am still extremely...

Are there any displaced Yankee fans with these answers? I am pretty pumped about the new upcoming baseball season. I am an out of market Direct TV customer (in Tennessee) with the Sports Package and the Extra Innings package. (I have been since the YES network went on air in 2002) I know...

Neo-Digits Player and Upscaling If you asking about the neo-digits player, the answer is yes. It will upconvert to 1080i and 720p via component video. The player has a set-up menu that allows you to change these settings at boot time. One other good thing is neo-digits offers very good...

Anyone here use a Neodigits HVD2085? I actually use a Neodigits HVD2085 that will upconvert via HDMI but will also upconvert your video via it's component interface. (...so no need for the HDMI switcher) The quality of the video looks great IMO. If you are lucky enough to have a 1080P HDTV...

I have used my SD Tivo with my pinnacle breakout box. It came with the Studio AV_DV Deluxe. It is very similar to the dazzle product. You may not be able to capture at full resolution but the SD Tivo is already compressed so it should look OK. Capturing the video via an analog solution and...

Thanks for the welcome and thanks for the information. I guess I am just a bitter displaced baseball fan that has problems with the Fox network's exlusive rights to out of market baseball fans. I live in Nashville and there have been Saturdays that my local Fox affiliate will just show old...

It is most likely the Fox rights on MLB Mostly likely this is not DirecTVs fault. Fox has the exlusive rights to baseball on Saturday afternoons. Even if YES is in your local market, they still can blackout your HD feed and only keep the SD feed. If YES is not in your local area, then you...
