    HLG working on 4K Channels?

    Today, 10/07, I’m watching football and baseball on the 104-108 4K channels and the color looks very flat. This is usually caused by a mismatch between the video being sent and the TV receiving it. The commercials especially look very flat. The same football game on an SDR channel, ABC Texas vs...

    IIHF Hockey Tournament Video Quality Sucks!

    If you are watching the tournament you have seen the poor quality of the video. It almost looks like it’s in 480P. Anyone know what’s causing it? I’m thinking it has to do with the info strip on the bottom being inserted instead of overlayed. The result is that the 1080P picture gets compressed...

    Screen Art Timing

    I’m having trouble with my words here so I’m not sure my names are right. My issue is that the screen overlay that comes on after I hit Pause on the program starts to quickly. I would like to change that on each individual client to a longer period. Perhaps 45 to 60 seconds. I’ve poured over the...

    Remote Setup

    I’m trying to reprogram my RC73 remote to remove my tv and add power on/off to volume control. Using the normal process I couldn’t see a way to remove the Sony TV so I just named my tv a 3M. When I tried to do the audio device I found the 2nd option worked for volume but not power. My Denon...

    I just bought this HDMI Splitter: View: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0891L7XDH?ref=ppx_yo2_dt_b_product_details&th=1 It works for my 1080P projector but doesn't for my new Sony A80J TV. The image is full of horizontal static lines. I tried pasting a picture but that doesn't work. It would seem...

    Software Version Numbering on C61K?

    In following a thread on an issue with 24P being displayed on athletic events on 104 I noticed that the posters were on Version 0x1624. That thread was two years old. I looked at my current version updated in August and it is 0x1582. I'm 41 versions to the negative. What's happening here? Does...

    Need Remote Programming Help

    I think this is an elementary problem but it's been so long since I've messed with my system I can't remember what I'm missing. I wanted to change my remote from IR to RF and also control my Denon AVR for volume and power on/off. It worked for RF change and volume control but not power on/off...

    Is there a receiver in the line, past or present, that has an analog out port? I want to use it for hooking up a pillow speaker and using it at night. Also, it needs to be wireless.

    Recordings Re-Order?

    After being a DTV customer since 1996 I just noticed yesterday that I could view sub-sections of my recordings list by choosing a sequence located in the left column. I think this is a neat feature but I would like to expand it or have to ability to sequence the entries my self. For instance, I...

    Sports Programming Costs?

    I am being billed for a Sports Package($13.99) and Regional Sports($8.49). This seems high. I only watch CSN Bay Area and CSN California on the regional. Isn't that included in the Sports Package?

    Folders in Recordings List?

    I have a fair number of concerts in my recording list. Is there a way to create a concert folder and move my recordings into it? If not, is there a way to sequence my recordings by moving them up or down in the list?

    61K Locked at 480P Output. Any Ideas?

    My C61K seems to be locked on 480P output even though under resolutions it says that my TV supports 720P, 1080i, and 1080P. I know this because my TV tells me the input resolution. I've unplugged it and rebooted, to no avail. Any suggestions?

    C61K Cutouts. Any cure?

    Both of my C61's that are connected to a NR17 server cut out on recordings constantly. Is this a common known problem. Any fix? I don't want to replace the server because I have about a dozen valuable recordings that I don't want to lose.

    Once again, My Teams not right. Any Work-arounds?

    My Teams is a really neat feature that Directv has offered for at least 5 or 6 years. However, it has a major flaw that has not been fixed even though I have been complaining to them forever. Basically the problem is that it will record your team's game on the first channel that it comes to in...

    HLG(Hybrid Log Gamma) on Genie?

    Can anyone tell me the what is known about Directv's implementation of HLG? HLG is similar to HDR but for cable and satellite transmissions. I know that it shows up on my LG OLED in the upper right corner when I tune to 104 after I received an HLG firmware update to my Denon receiver. But it...

    C61-700 Locked on 720P. Any Solutions?

    For some reason it's locked on 720P for my 1080P projector. I have Native "On" which I think is supposed to pass 1080i, 720P, and 1080P on to the projector. The c61 will not allow me to choose the other resolutions, only 720P. I have a Denon Video Processor after the AVR that is connected to the...

    Are 104 - 106 UHD channels 30 Hz or 60 Hz?

    I'm having trouble with my 4K splitter passing these channels through to my two UHD panels. One is a Vizio P70(2014) without HDR and the other is an LG B7A OLED that supports HDR and DolbyVision. In both cases the splitter will not pass the UHD signal through unless I pull the power plug and...

    Directv RGB or Ybcr?

    I've been having trouble matching my C61 to a DVDO iScan Mini or their Air3c wireless hdmi system. When I run it to either DVDO device and then to my TV, a Vizio or an LG OLED, the picture turns pink. DVDO's rech says it is because the Directv receiver is putting out RGB and the TV expects Ybcr...

    I have a 4K HDMI 1x2 splitter that depends on the HDMI connection for power. I have the two outputs connected to two HDMI inputs on my Vizio TV. The input on the splitter is connected to my C61-700 4K receiver. Before I connect to the C61 the two monitoring lights for output are brightly lit...

    Anyone here have experience with both of these? I'm considering switching from DTV with my Genie HR44 to the Mediacom Tivo. Not sure which Tivo it is but just like the Genie it is a DVR + client concept. I'm interested mostly in video quality comparison and functional capabilities. Hopefully...

Unfortunately he decided to hook everything up and when it didn't work he started unhooking coax connections in the antenna area.

    Remote Control for my client C41-700

    I don't like the new remote that came with my client. D* specialist says the old remote won't work with it. I have found that it does work if I use it in close-in IR mode. However, because my setup has the client behind me I wanted to use RF. When I went to the Remote Control setup I didn't see...
