I had a very serious audio problem, basically SP3 no longer supports HD audio. If you try to load updated audio drivers, you cannot load the MS UAA drivers, this leaves you with an unknown PC device that won't install. Windows XP SP3 Not Even out the Door and Already in Need of Fixing? -...

I love this site for tracking gas prices. The graph tells the whole story. http://www.eia.doe.gov/oil_gas/petroleum/data_publications/wrgp/mogas_home_page.html note Jan 2007 was where gas prices took off again, Just about when the new Congress took over.

What bothers me most about this whole situation is that Directv management gave the CSR's the 19 Sept date and told them to distribute it. Now that that date has not materialized, they have left the CSR's hanging in the wind with no update and no additional information. A poor way for a...

" Finally the word on what you've all been waiting for. Q-When will the OTA tuners in the HR20-700 be activated? A- Um, there's going to be a download sometime in the future. Q-Is that within a month? End of year? A- Sometime in the future. I'll try to find out more Saturday, leave your...

How about changing the logon to Tom Bombashill, :D :D BTW I can watch NBC, ABC, CBS, FOX AND CW HD without either D* or E*

In court, you can demonstrate that the HD lite format is not anywhere in the ATSC spec, which is the definition of HD. http://www.atsc.org/standards/a_53e-with-Amend-1-and-2.pdf Clearly D* loses, what next? D* agrees to broadcast at 1280X720P or 1920X1080i, thus meeting the ATSC...

In fact, call them and ask them three different times, that way you will get three different answers.:D :D :D

I run both of the composite/audio signals from the back of my D10 at the same time, works fine. On my H10 I send HDMI to an HDTV and composite video to a computer, that works fine also.

call BS on the H20 statement I still have an H10 and it was off there too.

I assume you have a D* box and are trying to split the signal from your satellite dish. If my assumptions are correct, you are out of luck. The onle solution is run another coax.

If this is true, and D* has nothing to do with negotiating the blackout rules, then why isn't cable subject to the same rules? They aren't, I have already checked with cable companies and verified what they said with friend who have cable. D* negotiates these rules with MLB and FSN, they get...

We receive FOX SUNDAY MORNING NEWS in HD from our local FOX station OTA. Don't depend on D* to provide you anything in HD. In fact the have recently renegotiated the HD sports blackout rules to take away much of the HD sports they were already providing. See my recent post titled BLACKOUT.

ON 8/2/2006 I spent two hours on the phone with Directv, trying to get an answer (BTW I was disconnected 4 times, thank goodness for the redail button). Here are the basic parameters. I have HD service, MLB extra innings, and the Sports pack. I live in southern TN (my assigned " home" teams are...

Only 9% of Americans may own HDTV's, but remember that 9% probably controls 90% of the discretionary spending (that's how they could afford an HDTV in the first place) . That 9% are the ones who buy D* premium channels, PPV, etc. And if they aren't high rolllers, then they are high tech...

Is it raining?

I have learned that I want to know more about FTA, and a free dish would help me get started.

consider spending $100 and buy a battery backup system, Costco has a good one. It will almost certainly fix the problem. I would also call out an electrician and have him check out your wiring to see if there is a more severe problem.

I would like to win the Fortec Mercury receiver, because I can't win the lottery and this is a good second choice.

check the ATSC standard, search for the "high definition" definition http://www.atsc.org/standards/a_53e.pdf D* would appear to be in violation of the part of the standard that talks about "HD quality", although it may only be a recommendation....

Drop the HD package put up an antenna and get HD locals for free.

I am glad to hear that you found a reliable CSR (sarcasm).

Let me relate a story illustrating the insanity of blackout rules. I watched (D* Ch 647) a Cardinals vs Pirates game last night. I noticed today that 647 was rerunning last night's game. I turned to CH 647 and guess what? The game I watched live last night was now blacked out on the rerun...

Why not run a commercial that says "Dish Network is adding HGTV HD and FOOD Network HD and we're not. Remember when we say somebody up there loves you, we could be talking about the Dish Network satellites....

Everyone needs to understand that it is not just blackout rules that prevent MLB EI from broadcasting games. For example if FOX Regional Sports (or anyone else) has bought exclusive rights to a game, then MLB EI cannot brodcast it. This creates a situation where even if you buy MLB EI, there...
