    DISH -VS- VOOM - A Settlement has been reached!

    I think Voom has a really good leg to stand on. E* has had a history of bullying (and whining) until it gets what it wants. Here is a company that is standing up to the bully and not taking their crap. The court was correct in not issuing an injuction. Case law prohibited that from...

    10 Voom Channels Gone, How Do You Feel?

    DirecTV would be genious to pick up Voom. They have plenty of capacity, so it would not hurt them at all. Sure, the turd bird subs probablly dont care much about voom, but I think there would be alot of E* defectors over this issue. Not even because they watched it, but for the principal of the...

    AMC 14 Satellite Launch Failure - What now for Dish?

    Not to rain on some people's parade here but: There are lots of other launch facilities that are not 'booked up' if they had a ground spare, they could get it up if they wanted. (Wallops Island Va is just one) Dish is not hinging their entire business on this one satellite. They have a...

    Anyone Ghosting their External Drive?

    ok, speaking of this topic.... Have they gotten rid of the 'you can only move your drive 3 times' rule? I have a 722 and 622... It would be nice to be able to share the recordings between them But... I would just buy more hard drives for storage.... you can get them pretty cheap now...

    FyreTV Beta Testing (Please Read)

    I just realized after E's post about the PQ, that I have left my box at the HQ setting DOH! I thought HQ meant High Quality... Well I will push my box up to the DVD quality setting, and see how much different things look. In the HQ setting on a 42 & 50" Plasma, as well as a 60" DLP it has looked...

    Best Way to Record LP's to MP3?

    I cant really recommend any freeware, but since you have 300, the price would be worth it. Probablly the best method is to buy Soundforge and make sure you get the vinyl restoration plugin. It works great removing the clicks pops, hiss, etc

    XstreamHD Needs Your Input!

    I think that this would be a good option for their system. Currently there aren't a ton of 7.1 systems that have DTS-HD available. Being able to decode the DTS-HD prior to the reciever would allow some older 7.1 systems to use the higher quality audio more efficiently. (I could be wrong on this...

    Philly audio problems?

    Ok, I have noticed this on and off for a while now. It is just now starting to annoy me. Fox-29 HD out of Philly every now and then has some real problem with the audio... It gets a studdering sound and 'digital' artifacts... I have a 722, but my 622 used to do it too... Anyone else have this...
