    Apt question....

    I am renting an apt and the patio faces south. Does anyone know if this will work for DirectTv or not. What is the best way to figure out if I will be able to pick up a good signal before they come out and tell me more. Thanks.

    Question about HD DVD's...

    I am still fairly new to HD so please forgive me if this is a stupid question. What is the difference between standard dvd's & a HD dvd? I do have a HD tv and a Sony DVP-NS75H which upconverts standard dvd's to HD. Will this work for HD DVD's? I noticed Netflix now has HD DVD's and...

    622: Found this out by accident...

    You all know if you hit the DVR button twice, it takes you to your recorded events. If you hit it 3 times, it will take you to your recording schedule. Not sure if anyone else knew about this or not but thought I would pass it along. :)
