    Genie Tuning to Customer Information Channel

    I have a Directv Genie setup. I have noticed recently that my receiver is tuning itself to the Customer Information Channel (201). Appears to by happening if I power off and comeback later. The last channel I was watching is not on, channel 201 is playing. Any thoughts?

    HR34 & C31 issues

    I have one HR34 with 2 C31 clients, and it seems like everyday it is one client or the other with the black screen problem. That is my biggest complaint so far since

    DISH Drops AMC Networks (AMC Back on DISH channel 131)

    I just did an online chat and ended up with free Roku. I am on the Welcome Package, so I really didn't expect to get a credit. I had to transfer to an account specialist. 1st person claimed I didn't have AMC in my package. Said it would arrive in 3-5 days.

    How many people are happy with Blockbuster @ Home?

    I have been generally happy with the mail service. We usually don't watch more than one Blu-ray per week, so by the time I watch a movie and mail it back, I don't notice any delay. My issue is with the streaming service. Downloads are too slow. Lately, if I pick something to watch in HD, it...

    I have the welcome pack and it was an available option to add to my programming when I checked online earlier today. It was listed under "Movie Pass". Didn't add it yet though.

    Big Ten football championship game?

    I wasn't talking about basketball, was I? I was talking about football, where it is a fact that Penn State is a bigger draw Pitt. 75,00 people showed up 3 weeks ago to watch scrimmage. Harvard, Princeton, and Yale have more national titles than PSU also, but who cares about 1915. You need to...

    Big Ten football championship game?

    How many sellout games has Pitt had at home since the last time PSU was in town? Not too many, you could probably count them on one hand. They should be happy to get one game with PSU at home. Guaranteed sellout. They could even make people buy tickets for 3 games like they did last time to...

    The Dish April 1st New HD Saga (Merged Threads)

    There is no set time for the uplink! It is the same crap every week. "Where is the uplink?" It happens at different times,as somebody with over 2,000 posts you should know that.

    Anyone else using redbox??

    Remember though that it is $1 per day, not $1 per movie. And if you have it for more that 2 weeks, you bought it.

    Battlestar Galactica -- Season 4

    If they are going to get in with the natives, they can learn from them were to get food, how to hunt, how to farm. They don't have to live off the land in all cases. Some obviously will because they are going where there are no people, but I think a lot will try to coexist with tribes or...

    Battlestar Galactica -- Season 4

    If you read the interveiws that were linked to earlier, all of the Cylons are gone. The colony was destroyed, they admit that they edited too much out and it wasn't as clear as it should have been that the nukes destroyed it. Edit: Here is the quote so you don't have to go looking. Moore...

    When will the 922 be out & will I be able to watch HD on more than 1 TV?

    Most people aren't going to want to run HDMI cables through the house. I don't think that is practical. At least the current system uses existing wiring for most people. If I upgrade to the 922, I will probably try the Sling Catcher route. Once more details come out, I may change my mind.

    DISH HD absolute programming lacks RSN

    You have to switch to one of the Turbo Packages, Absolute never had the RSNs available. Can't add the Sports Pack to it either.

    I am thinking about getting Tivo

    Great thread. I have been toying with this Tivo idea for a while. Just starting thinking about what I actually watch and how much I pay to watch what I can get for free. I looked at the yearly cost I pay for Dish and never really thought about how much I was paying just to watch TV. I...

    Popup Ads

    I noticed pop up ads the other day and today my browser frose up with an ad with some chick talking and some hip hop music. Anybody else notice? I wasn't logged in at the time, so it might be from some of the extra ads that appear then.

    What happens to DishHD Absolute after Feburuary 1st?

    You might not have been told it, but the info has been out there that the Absolute package would not get new channels after a certain point. I am pretty sure it came out of a Charlie Chat. I am pretty sure the old HD packages were grandfathered in until their equipment would no longer...

    Netflix testing weekend shipping

    That would be pretty cool. I alway get a fast turn around except when I mail a movie on Friday. This way I would get my new movie Monday instead of Tuesday.

    Sirius raising prices!

    I think you will need to renew before price increase, if you wait until July to renew you will surely pay the higher price.

    Sirius raising prices!

    I wonder if those who lock in the free online listening with a new term will get upgraded to CD quality since they are eliminating the lower quality service or if those people will still get the lower grade stream?
