    Native Mode.. Bad for the TV?

    The H20 Native mode is obviously the best choice for PQ, but will all that resolution changing have a negative effect on the life of my plasma?

    Has anyone found a code that works on the RC24 for the new Norcent 2023 LCD TV? Both Norcent codes listed in the manual do not work.

    Up and running in Dallas

    I am now getting the Dallas mpeg-4 feeds after my install today (Still no ABC/WFAA Channel 8). Everything looks fine except for some white artifacts on CBS 11. Anyone else notice this? Sound is good.

    Another Clueless D* CSR Story

    I've been waiting for 3 weeks to get my rebate form in the mail for my H20. I finally called today and was told the form is actually on the web (that would have been nice to know 3 weeks ago). After reading the form, it turns out that unless you live in Detroit, the rebate is only good if you...

    Getting the Most out of my EDTV/D* HD Receiver

    I have an EDTV that will display up to 480p through its component inputs, however it supports up to 800x600 through its VGA input. Is there any way I can take advantage of this? My HD receiver has a VGA output.. Can I (using some kind of hardware) somehow transform a 720p or 1080i signal into...

    Dallas LiL.. No ABC?

    For some reason, WFAA (ABC Channel 8/9-1HD) is not listed as one of the new HD locals on the D* site. Anyone know why? I was really hoping to get it since it's the only Dallas channel I can't get with my antenna.. Mainly because they stupidly broadcast in VHF (9-1) instead of UHF like everyone...

    Last of the 12 LiL Markets Are Live!

    All 12 markets should now be offering HD locals. I am in the Dallas area and was able to get my dish and "tenative" install date. Like all the other stories, they are still charging $99, unless you ask to talk to customer retention. They waived the $99 charge for the dish and installation...

    Will my monitor sync?

    I have one of those EDTVs that also has a VGA input that can support up to 800x600. Will this monitor sync with a HD receiver putting out 1080i (effectively 540p) via its RGB output, or will I hit the wall with 480p?

    Resolution Question

    All, I have a HIRD-E86 D* HD receiver that puts out 1080i on component. I want to use it with my EDTV, which has a RGB VGA plug and supports up to 800x600 (The component inputs only support 480i/p). Is there any kind of VGA transcoder out there that can get the 1080i signal to convert to a...

    Want to get rid of your mpeg-2 HD Receiver?

    I'll pay $30 plus shipping if you have upgraded to the H20 and want to get rid of your old receiver. I need a receiver for my EDTV (I don't care much about not being able to get future HD channels).. It has to do the following: Work with DirecTV Put out 480p on a component cable Have an RF...
