    Any Surprises Coming?

    Getting Direct tomorrow, leaving Dish... Whole House DVR question: I understand that I won't get 1080p due to the fact that my main tv has DVI or Component hookup, but will get 1080i. Upstairs tv 720p HDMI connection, but looks good even now with Dish. Now main tv is hooked up component...

    dish complaints

    can't get anywhere with dish when I call--- I've got HD, but can't get Buffalo Sabres games in HD when they're broadcast as such, on an Alternate Channel. (that's the way I find it). Also asked, why they don't show something new under 'free preview' channel for the month for people like me...

    tv aspect

    Thinking of a vip622 setup, but I'm worried about tv2 composite going to my Panny plasma. It gets good sd reception on cable. Can I use the aspect control on the tv so that I don't have to watch tv in a 4:3 configuration? The other thing that I'm worried about is using the cable run in the...

    vip625

    I'm under the impression that if I have 4 tv's, and got the vip625, I could plug into the house' coax wiring from cable and one at a time, could use my other 3 tvs. Is that right, anybody? I'd like to knock off any $ on the system that I can, using HD for 1 tv and forget getting 3 other sd...
