Take it for what it's worth, but D* told me they did their first round and their 2nd round is going to be Oct 4th. Then she back tracked and said maybe the rollout what happening up to Oct 4th. So who the heck knows. I am probably more confused now than I was before. :eek:

Yes that is happening with the HDMI cable. A lot of people are using components to get around the prob. I heard on DBStalk that it will be in the first update to fix this issue. They are all talking about it over there.

I was watching it last night on OTA and it was pretty bad at times. I just think that all of the stations really need to get there HD pic better. The only channel I really loved was CBS when march Madness was going on. It was pretty good I thought.

So is this going to have the Tivo software in it, or just the DVR software?? I have been so confused now that D* resigned Tivo for 3 yrs if they are not using them.

Sorry this is kind of off topic but kind of not. So here goes. There is a product here http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2145800&cp=&origkw=Sirius&kw=sirius&parentPage=search called the Monster Sirius TV/Radio Combiner. Now supposedly you hook this up to the sat connection...

I am not sure if this has been posted, but I just could not believe it. It is a quick article http://www.tvpredictions.com/directvdesperate030106.htm

Also just so you know probably what is happening is that the installer is trying to peak it for the ku band and not the ka. I believe the ka band is not as wide as the ku. But it could be the other way around, I can;t remember. In either case though, if the installer does go for the wider 101...

It is funny I just had that same problem with pixelation and bad rain fade. I then had the installer come back out, I got a different one this time, and he said the first installer did a very sloppy job. He remounted the dish, put 3 stabilizing arms and I am now in the high 80's low 90's with...

The guy was telling me that most installers that come out for movers or relocation do a bad job. His words not mine. He said make sure with the AT-9 no matter where you are to put the 2 stablizing arms and if they can put 3. Also make sure they are secure on a 2x4 and not just on the end of...

Update Ok the installer just left. Let me tell you that I live in the Chicago area and APEX was the installer. This is the 2nd time that I have worked with them and let me tell you they are excellent. Their attention to detail and just putting everything the way it should be is great...

I am going to have them retune and then put these legs on. Thank you for all of your help. I am crossign my fingers is goes ok. Thanks again.

Does anyone else have the stability arms on their AT-9?? Does it really help?? Or should I jsut have them peak the Ka band and then leave it the way it is?? I am having them bring out the legs though.

Yeah I am getting rain fade and pixelation. I just want to make sure the job is done right, and I am going to have them put on the two legs also, maybe this will keep it from blowing around. Now my other question is, can the wind knock it out of alignment??

Sorry about that. But for all of the transponders that I have listed. 110 and 119 are HD only and 101 is for all SD except the premiums such as HBO, Starz, etc.

You know it is funny, but the CSR said that those are the only transponders that are used. I actually heard that before also, is that true??

yeah that is cool, I knew that it had to be at aleast 70. But this is killing me. I mean it is really low and not sure the contract installers know what they are doing. But then again I was one of the first in my area to get the at-9 so maybe I should chaulk it up to no experience by the...

Just need some advice on what the levels should be for the dish and if they should put on the 2 legs on my AT-9 dish. Well currently here are my levels H20 Sat 101 Transponder 1-2 = 65, 66 Sat 119 Transponder 26-27= 44, 58 Sat 110 Transponder 8,10,12= 50,51,51 H10 Sat 101 Transponder...

I will say that TNT was so pixelated last night. It weas watchable but when the action started getting going it would pixelate. I will say that ABC was unbelievable this weekend. So I loved that. TNT was getting to me, but I guess I would rather have HD then none at all.

I know that I am probably way off topic here, but I was just thinking about this since one of my buddies got Sirius Satellite Radio. How can the FCC regulate Directv and not Sirius?? I mean you pay for Directv and you pay for Sirius. But if I get the movie packages then there is no FCC...

This happens with every HDMI cable and STB. If you let the STB change the format instead of your TV which is faster then this will happen. Do as the guy instructed above. that will make your tv change the format and it will be much faster.

I believe this was due to a firmware upgrade and there is no way to fix this. you will have to wait until you get the 5 LNB up.

They seem to have no idea as to what software release (patches) have gone out, nor do they know what the H20 even really looks like. This guys was in Advanced Technical support. What is going on over there?? I feel bad for the CSR's because they just get thrown into the fire. But I told him...

I am complaining as we speak. :) Thanks for your help.

I have an analog connection and an optical connection. I only turn the optical connection on through the Home Theater setup on certain occasions. But I do have the box connected through HDMI. Are we now saying that I have to go back to component?? I love component but I have other...

The only problem I see with turning the Dolby Digital off on the STB is that if you have an Optical Connection then it will not come through, is that correct?? I have not tested it on the H20 but I know this was the case with the H10.
