    Fresno State vs. Texas A&M HD???

    I watched it in HD on a channel in the 90s (don't remember which one) here in Texas. The UT game game came up next in HD, but as PPV. Didn't want to spend the bucks, so watched UT in SD.

    H20-DTC-100 MPEG2 vs MPEG4?

    The only resolutions that are HD are 720p and 1080i, so choose one of those formats to output to your HD TV (whichever one looks best to your eye), or enable all resolutions in the H20 that your TV accepts and set the H20 for "native", and it will output whatever resolution the broadcast source...

    5.1 sound

    Olderdog-my surround system shows "dolby digital" when it receives 5.1 sound, and "pro logic or pro logic 2" when it is receiving stereo. I depend on my surround system to tell me when the program is being broadcast in dd, and not my H20-600 or HR20-100. Most, but not all HD programming is dd...

    Need a little wiring help

    You do know you won't get any mpeg4 with the 3 lnb dish, right? You'll need the new 5 lnb dish for mpeg4, and D* will probably install it for free. And you'll also need a H20 or HR20 receiver for mpeg4.

    Ch. 11 Houston HD

    I'm in Angleton and have had problems with 11-1 since day one. I have audio and video drop-outs with both H20-600 and HR20-100, even though signal meters show 98%-100%. To top it off, closed captions experience same drop-outs and intermittent service. I even experience closed caption problems...

    Don't understand multiswitch

    As mcbeevee said, you need a line from the dish for each tuner (dvr=2) so yes, you need 3 lines. Retire the 3x4 multiswitch, as it will only allow access to 101 satellite. Run 3 direct lines from dish (as you have been correctly told it has a built-in 4 output multiswitch). Seeing all 3 sats...

    HD Games on NFL Network Spotted!

    I don't have NFL Sunday Ticket, and I'm watching it in HD on 95. Looks like a HD movie coming up later on 95. Interesting.

    Directv L-11 receivers

    On my D10 and R15, both are hooked up to 4:3 TVs, setting the aspect to 16:9 has no effect. I did have an old hughes SD hooked to my Mits DLP for a week or so before I got a HD receiver, and the aspect setting on it had no effect on the 16:9 TV either. Had to tell the DLP TV how I wanted the...

    Directv L-11 receivers

    I was able to find the Puerto Rico version of the D* LA website, and it offers no info about receivers, except to give general advice like check connections, restart receiver etc. No models or manuals. Says receiver mfg are Thomson, Hughes, and General Electric. That's about it, so without more...

    Directv L-11 receivers

    OK Charper-I THINK he is saying he wants 4:3 displayed with pillar box. If so, then he can set a HD receiver to do this. If he has a SD receiver, as you say, there is no setting for this, and then, as everyone else has said, the only option is to tell the TV to display 4:3 with pillar box.

    OTA Tuners (H20) ever go bad?

    D-10 doesn't have OTA tuner. It's only a pass-through to allow OTA to reach TV when the D-10 is off.

    H20 Crashing/Rebooting

    I said COULD cause it. This nothing more than my own speculation at this point, and maybe someone with more technical knowledge can jump in here. FWIW, that last time my H20 rebooted itself was watching the Bears game Sunday, on satellite (not OTA) east coast feed. But it has also happened on OTA.

    H20 Crashing/Rebooting

    I have experienced spontaneous reboots at least 4 times, while watching TV, not even touching the remote. I had posted this experience in another forum DBS Talk, but no one responded with any input except to talk about reboots while working in the menu with favorites or find by. My H20 is not...

    What could be the problem here?

    And all 4 lines from phase III dish have to go into the multiswitch so all receivers can access all 3 sats.
