So I really got sick of waiting for FIOS to go live (even though this house was wired well over a year ago) at this location. I have DirecTV but I am sick of not getting all the channels I want and enough premiums in HD. So, I did the following...... DirecTV- kept- choice extra with HD-DVR...

Yet again today my XM radio is cutting out and shows one bar of signal. I'm in the Tampa Bay area of Florida and the weather has been fine and usually is lately during these cut outs. Whether listening to talk or a song, it is unbearable to have it drop out repeatedly. Before somebody says it...

So HBO has decided that they would skip a week of True Blood this Sunday July 5th because of the holiday weekend. So S2E4 will air next Sunday instead of this week. I understand the broadcast networks doing this, but the broadcast networks broadcast episodes once, maybe twice during the rerun...

Seriously, is it too much to ask for a few new HD channels here and there? I signed up with DirecTV about a year ago and got myself into a two year contract. I was happy with the DVR right away but the channel selection was lacking, especially on the premium channels. As a movie fan, I...

Anybody think there is any chance of FIOS adding AMC-HD before March, when Breaking Bad Season 2 begins? I would like to see IFC HD too and there are those that would like to see We and any other Rainblow stations. What are the chances?

Can I "move" to Miami from the Tampa metro, considering satellites my dish points at and the spotbeams?

I posted the following thread on a Verizon Forum yesterday and got no real feedback. Could some of you FIOS TV subscribers in the Tampa market and any other market read on and see if you are having the same problem? Thanks in advance. Buffalo has reported no problem, so it may just be the Tampa...

For weeks I have been seeing the ads for Center Ice for four monthly payments of $39.95. My wife and I actually talked about getting it this year during the few days of free preview. It would be kind of silly, because we are Lightning fans and live in Lightning land, but having the option to...

This has become pretty annoying. Both my HD-DVR 21 boxes are hooked to the Internet and I have been downloading some HD stuff lately from Showtime ON Demand. Periodically, I get an error message on the screen saying "there is a problem connecting to the Internet," asking if I would like to "test...

I bought into a bill of goods that I feel are good, but certainly could/SHOULD be better. When I shelled out $300 for two HD-DVRs in the spring for equipment I don't even own, and agreed to a two year agreement, I figured DirecTV would continue to add HD channels at a reasonable pace. I am very...

Lifetime Movies HD - channel 737 FX HD - channel 738 Fox News HD and Travel Channel HD would have been nice.

A few times a day I refresh the main page of Satelliteguys.us in hopes of seeing some new HD announced. Sure, once in a while there is the announcement of locals being added for the poor folks in those markets that went without locals in HD over D* for so long, but what about new HD nationals...

Yes, this has been brought up before but I have yet to find an explanation for why DirecTV is the worst offender of cranking up the volumes when commercials come on. Not but 10 minutes after waking up and starting the coffee I had Fox News on and it was extra loud during commercials as always...

While out servicing customer appointments yesterday I noticed a big Verizon sign of intent to dig off 34th Ave NE around the 10 hundred block. I was at a stop sign with a car behind me so I didn't reread what I thought I read but it looks like they are starting work digging a main fiber line...

I feel like such a geek for even noticing this, but here goes..... On page 21 in the August '08 issue of AccessDirecTV, you'll notice it is a highlights page of HD programming this month. In the second column, immediately under "BRAINFOOD," you will notice it highlights a program, "Seven...

Like many, I have been enjoying scheduling recordings to my HD-DVRs. I thought I would give the "TV Planner" a whirl today. What a joke... maybe I am doing something wrong. Based on my four star rating of Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and my not rating Underworld since I have not seen it, the...

So they have the 4th of July Game Lounge Free Preview. I have been playing around with this thing a little bit on both my HR-21 boxes. First off... it is slow... it could very well be that so many people are trying it out that it is bogged down. I don't know for sure, but it is slow. Second-...

I took the time to compare the HD-DVD disc version of Transformers and the HD version of the movie DVR'd off Cinemax HD (West). Obviously, I expect that the HD-DVD version (1080P) is going to be a better picture than the overly compressed 1080i version on Cinemax. My biggest gripe isn't the...

Today I did a comparison between CNN HD on DirecTV and the newly added CNN HD on BHN. My hookup- I currently have my BHN box hooked up via HDMI (looks better than component on my Sony HD set) and my fairly newly subscribed DirecTV box (about six weeks) is hooked up via component still (I have...

I have had DirecTV for a few weeks and most of the time while browsing the guide I put it in HDTV channels only mode and browse to see what is on. I have yet to see ANYTHING labeled as HD on any of these Viacom channels. Realizing they may just be placeholders for future content, have any of...

I just got DirecTV yesterday and two HR21 DVRs. At 2:15 I tried to record the movie Dogma and then tuned to another HD station. I got a warning that popped up that said I would have to tune to Dogma to record it. I said OK, suspicious of course. I then tried to change the channel and it gave me...

Just got DirecTV today. Finally got the aspect ratio right, but I cannot figure out how to change the color of the side bars. I don't want gray. I want black. The menu only displays playlist and various non-system settings. How do I access these settings?

I thought Dish HD was everything except the premiums. I actually considered going back to Dish for the Dish HD but I see it is missing many of the channels offered in the Dish Ultimate pack. I thought the whole point was that you could just subscribe to Dish HD service and get them all, like USA...

For all you bluray fanboys that wished HD-DVD to death- I was never a fanboy of either format. I own both and enjoy both very much so. I own two HD-DVD players (stand alone and Xbox360 add on) as well as about 50 movies. I own a PS3 and a handful of bluray movies. My complaint was my biggest...

Bright House is infamous for not knowing when "new" is no longer "new." In the Tampa Bay market we got some new HD channels in December. You guys in CFL got them in February. So, here we are four months later, and the BHN website for Tampa Bay still says "Just added - more HD Channels!" and this...
