Does anyone know if you can use VoIP to connect your receiver instead of a regular line?

I've only had Direct TV with tivo for three months and I love it. I had opted on sign up to get the protection plan for $7.99 per month. I'm wondering if it's worth it, or should I cancel? I'm just curious about how many of you have the plan and if you guys think the equipment is pretty...

Got my 2 room Direct TV system installed yesterday. Just wanted to let you guys know how much better my picture is. I know some of you were giving me opinions both for and against the switch from dish network. I like the tivo much better than the 522 and the picture is more vibrant and less...

If I buy a 120gb Samsung Direct Tivo on e-bay with the access card, will I be able to activate it with direct tv or will I run into problems? Also do you think that since I will be paying for the dvr protection plan that they will cover the one I would buy on e-bay?

I was just looking at the starz super-pak on direct tv and it doesn't show starz family. Comcast and Dish Network have it on there. Is that an error or does Direct Tv really not have Starz Family? Thanks.

How do you go about installing a higher capacity hard drive in a direct tivo? I'm getting a 40 gb one on Thursday. I know how to install a pc hardrive. Does it run on a pc hardrive?

I will be getting a 40gb direct tivo on Thursday. Can you upgrade the hardrive to a larger one without buying the more expensive machines, or do you guys find that 35 hrs of recording time is sufficient?

Though I haven't experienced the recording bugs etc that some report, I don't care for the picture quality. Someone else said the same thing about it. My Comcast digital cable had a better picture which is why I'm going to try Direct Tv with the tivo. My friend just got Direct Tv and he has a...

My friend just subscribed to direct tv and he has a much better picture than mine. And to boot I have a much nicer tv with s-video.

I'm just curious about something. I just had started the DHA plan with the dvr522 on 5/14. As some of you may know from previous posts I have not been happy with my picture. A service tech came out and ordered me a new receiver which still didn't change anything. I signed up for Direct TV and it...

After posting some threads on the forums about picture quality issues with dish network I've decided to make the switch to Direct TV. I only wish I had gone with them in the first place so I don't have to go through the hassle of sending all the equipment back. I have a question for those of you...

I just signed on with Dish after having Comcast Digital Cable. I really don't think the picture quality is even close to my digital cable. The locals are really crappy and even the premium channels i can see pixelling. I have a 6 month old 32 inch Toshiba that has exellent picture quality with...

Sorry. It's the Boston channels line-up. Fox, CBS, PBS etc.

Thanks. I live in NH. My friend just had Direct TV installed and he said the picture is great even on the locals. Althought his signal got knocked off briefly with the t-storms we had tonight and I still had a signal of over 100. Yeah my installers ran all new cable and everything. They didn't...

I'm the guy that had the reception problems acouple threads ago. I got a tv calibration dvd called Home Theatre Set Up disk. My picture is a little better, but still some pixellation. The local channels are definetely not as clear as my cable was. Maybe the new 522 dish is sending me will be...

I just started using dish network last Friday and had a 522 installed on 2 tvs. My#1 tv which is a 6 month old Toshiba 32 inch flatscreen has a perfect picture when watching dvds' and when I had digital cable. When plugged in with the coaxial cable there were dark lines faintly in the background...

I read on some site that you can use a super-soaker filled with rain-x windsheild de-icer to spray down a dish. I think I may try that this winter and see how it goes.

I am a new dish network customer. I was wondering if any of you use a dish heater to keep the snow and ice off? I live in the NorthEast and I don't want to have to climb a slippery roof to brush off my dish when winter comes back around.

What is a video essentals set up disk.

I just had dish network put in a 2 room system with the dvr522. When connected with the supplied coaxial cables to the tv there are faint black lines that move from left to right across the screen and at times pixelization and blurry outlines of objects. When I plugged the supplied s-video cable...
