That is a really good question. OTA quality has stayed the same. The OTA channels still give me that looking though a window feel (with the exception of our local PBS station that added a bunch of sub-channels). Also our up converting DVD player (oppo) has been extremely consistent. This...

Thank you for the clarification! Somewhere (I don't recall the exact post), I read that with the HR20, and the guys testing the HR21 + AM21 you could watch OTA tuners when the the 2 SAT tuners are in use. I will edit the original post to reflect your answer. Thanks again!

I wanted to start this post by letting everyone know a little bit of history. I was a DIRECTV subscriber for many years. I began purchasing their service when a new home I built in 1997 did not have cable service. Back then you paid two bills (USSB and DIRECTV I think) and the SD picture...

I would take that over no coverage any day of the year!

Here is a quote from the president of Versus confirming the HD coverage: "We are thrilled that Cablevision is adding VERSUS HD to its channel lineup," said Gavin Harvey, President of VERSUS. "High definition is the most valuable real estate in television and now millions of viewers in the New...

Does anyone know if Dish will be adding this channel??? Versus HD will be showing the Tour de France for the first time in HD. The channel is free to providers that already carry Versus. Will Dish add this to the lineup? Thanks!

I am in southern california and my OTA timers started dissapearing as soon as the HD LIL for my area started. My current setting is: HD only. I will try SD only from today on and report back. DISH please fix this ASAP!!!

My first 622 was a Rev C, it arrived DOA. Dual mode would not work and none of the DVR functions could be accessed. The replacement 622 a few days later was a rev D.

Thanks for the tips. I am up and running now. Thank you!

My replacement 622 arrived today. I swap it out, run a check switch confirm I can see all three satellites and proceed to the the SW download screen. It has been stuck on the software download screen with "Status: Acquiring Satellite" for 25 minutes. The green bar has not even shown up yet...

Today Dish showed up to upgrade my 942 to a 622 receiver. I had 2 Dish500 dishes, one pointed at 61.5 and the other at the 110/119. So these are the results: (1) The 61.5 dish500 was left on the building. I am ok with this as the installer was not prepared to seal the holes, etc... I...

Goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooolllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll!!!!

Samuel was robbed.... Boy am I going to miss this!

Ok anyone else getting annoyed at this? Could VOOM please stop adding channels until the PQ is restored! Bandwidth does not materialize out of thin air. Even with statistical multiplexing the new encoders have dropped the picture quality to crap... What good is more channels when the...

DLP over DVI 720p Why not post a poll?

Matt, Worldsport is one of the 2 or 4 VOOM channels that make the service unparalleled in my opinion. If VOOM goes away I don't know where I will get my "futebol" fix. La liga is where the top "brasileiros" play. I want to thank you and all the folks at WorldSport for the...

Ok D* is over compressing and downrezing right now. How do you feel about that? Also why do you say you will get the media center at no cost? Have they made any public statements to that effect? The only thing I learned from CES is that when MPEG4 is launched on D* the current crop of...

What are you going to do now? OK, Since so many think the service is on life support, I would like to know what the rest of you are going to do: (1) Nothing. I am hanging around until the signal goes away. (2) I am happy with OTA. I am going to take my time to figure this out. (3)...

Guys, Did anyone happen to catch any information regarding the recording modes on the DVR? Specifically I would like to know if is supports: (1) Name based recording. For example record all episodes of Seinfeld or all episodes of Tour de France. (2) If Name based recording is...

Goooooooooooooooooooooooooool

LOL :D

I think what he meant was: 1) From the dish to the DVR there will be a need for 2 cables (polarity like you said). 2) From the DVR to the rest of the house you need 1 coax (use the existing RJ6 cable network in your house; disconnected at the service box from the cable company of course)...

This must be a joke??? ESPN HD barelly has 10 hours a week of HD coverage. What do they plan to do with ESPN2HD???? Don't get me wrong, I am not slamming VOOM, just commenting on the lack of true HD material on ESPN...
