    HD Locals without HD Access

    I thought you could get your HD local channels even without the HD Access fee? I even called Directv 2 times before canceling HD Access to verify I'd still get HD Locals. They kept insisting I would. And now that I canceled I don't even have my locals and guess what? "I'm sorry for the...

    HR20 USB port

    What's the usb port on the front of the receiver for? Is it for external hard drives later on? We can't do what Dish just started letting people do with external drives huh? I was just wondering if there will ever be a way to record HD content onto an external hard drive connected to my...

    Changing Channels is a PAIN!

    I think I'm just going to buy a DirecTV HR-20 HD DVR from my local costco to get this problem out of the way. Do I need to use my phone line to use the HR-20? I only have 1 phone line.

    Changing Channels is a PAIN!

    Hello, I hope someone here can help me because DirecTV doesn't seem to want to! I have an H20 HD Directv receiver and am using the original remote. When I hit the channel UP button, it goes to the next channel fine. But if I hit the channel up button again right after hitting it once...

    Pixelation and Picture Drop out

    DirecTV tech came out last week and installed new wiring and put a hole in my bedroom wall for the new cable. Ofcourse that didn't help at all. Still getting pixelation and picture/sound drop out. I'm located in Atlanta, GA and I didn't notice any posts at AVS about picture drop outs on...

    Pixelation and Picture Drop out

    They replaced the receiver with one manufactered in august of this year though. But I still get pixelation. Now I'm starting to feel like putting a hole in the wall to run cable through is a bad idea :(

    Pixelation and Picture Drop out

    Nope they haven't offered me anything in the 7 times I've dealt with them so far. Someone is now coming out tommorow to drill a hole in the wall and add a cable through there. Didn't want it to have to come to this but I guess I have no other choice. I hope it works, I'll update here after I...

    Pixelation and Picture Drop out

    I've had techs come out 7 times now. Yes thats right, 7 times. I'm getting pixelation on my local HD channel 11(NBC). Sometimes it's just pixelation for a few seconds with sound drop out and sometimes the channel just drops out and I get a black screen and then the picture and sound comes...

    $70 Charge for what?

    Why does DirecTV insist that I have to pay $70 for a technician to come out and take a look at my setup if I'm not getting a signal? Shouldn't not being able to watch programming fall under something DirecTV has to cover paying for? I have to pay more money because of lowsy installation or...

    H20 - Picture black and no sound

    I've been using the component connection for about a week now. I did have the sound go out once but that was only once. And the picture went black once too but it stayed black for more than a few minutes so I figured it was something wrong with the feed from that local channel. Other than those...

    H20 - Picture black and no sound

    I'll start by pointing out that I was one of the people that had there receiver doing a bunch of reboots earlier in september. I never did anything about it because after a day or so the problem went away, I think it was a software update that solved it. But I just wanted to mention that incase...
