    Any new info on INHD?

    INHD is owned by a cable consortium, I believe it consists of Cox, Comcast, and Time Warner. While it is available for any company that wants to make it available, they current pricing method is you have to pay for each digital cable subscriber. Most people that subscribe to cable only subscribe...

    How well do you know your beer?

    I got 12 out of 12, but then again I am in college and have all these beers in my bottle collection and have about 200 bottles lining my kitchen. It seemed like a good idea at the time to start a beer bottle collection. I was wrong because all about 40 tasted like total ass

    Ok, Sunday Ticket is over. Can we expect any new HD channels?

    Pretty easy they start upgrading them first, because sunday ticket subscribers pay the most money usually, and is not a huge group of the subscriber base. For the people with HD recievers none could get the interactive features because those recievers could not support it except for the mpeg 4...

    Component vs SVHS etc on Viewsat Extreme

    monsters are a pretty good price if you can buy them with an employee discount, the markup on them is rediculous and seems to be higher then most accesories because most of the people that walk into the store fall for the salesmans bs

    Static In Rupert's Satellite Dreams

    I think comcast signed a deal with Tivo because there guide is downright terrible. Its the worst thing in the world. Tivo might have also given comcast a great deal to use there software too because they lost their deal with Directv. I was back at my parents house and used on demand a lot, and...

    Good Vid Cards to get that have DVI (TV compatable) or HDMI (TV compatable)

    It won't break it, but if you leave static images on for long periods of time you can experience burn-in, but for most people that is not really a problem. On the video card front im not sure, but someone else will definately be able to help.

    Receivers and All-in-One-Units with AC3

    I have no heard of such a thing, but that does not mean it doesn't exist. If it does I would imagine its relatively expensive and it would prolly be better to find a reciever that matches the output on your pansat.

    Probably a dumb question but I will ask...

    I agree with silver surfer on this one. I got my HD-Tivo from Robert and hes the best, very fast shipping and awesome customer service.

    Probably a dumb question but I will ask...

    I am not sure if this is correct, but it is my understanding that they will give you a credit of $100 for buying a DVR. I think this applies to HD-Tivos as well but if you buy a SD-Tivo for $99 then it is free. Not sure if they charge tax.

    I have been trying to find out how to scan on my HD-tivo for months and im convinced i am retarded. It is no where to be found where direct tv claims it to be. i can test my signal strength but can not add new channels. I know the channels are broadcasting but when i tune to them on the HD-tivo...

    Is Do It Yourself Installation Possible?

    I installed my system myself and was able to get a credit for doing so. It was very easy. About a kit I remember they used to have one and I think it was made by RCA. Not sure if they are still around but radio shack would be a good bet. If they don't have a kit you can always buy the supplies...

    anyone have Samsung DLP w/ D* HD ?

    You can save yourself the money and keep the cables you have right now if your using DVI. With the digital connections, it will not make a difference at all what cables you are using as long as its not that long and has a good connection. With the analog hookups it makes a world of difference...

    Sure Baby, I"ll Change

    We are in the same boat. I miss all the HD, but I still have voom hooked and directv looks better. They are both hooked up over Monster cable components(got them cheap cause I work at best buy) on a calibrated RPTV, Voom still beats the crap out of Direct quantity wise but the picture is not as...

    May 1st where will you be? Dish, Cable or DirecTV?

    I went with Directv and got an HD-Tivo. My cable company is Cox and the only additional HD channel is Starz. Directv announced the most aggressive HD plan, but if Cox or Dish offers the Voom 21 and/or DirecTV does not offer uncompressed HD I will go to the better offer. I myself am a movie buff...

    Voom dead, which service now for HD?

    But at 9.99 a block they can keep wishin. Playboy was worth the 14.95 a month because some of the shows they had were funny. The hd porn when spice tv came on was an added bonus.

    New waiver system at DirecTV for HD DNS ? ? ?

    Not sure if this is the right place, but I'll give it a shot. I just got an HD-tivo switched from voom and I live in Lubbock,TX. My CBS and ABC are owned by the same affiliate that does not plan on doing HD any time soon. Can anyone give me advice on "moving". I really have been wanting those...

    $1,000 for a DVR is ridiculous

    I just talked to Robert, and he gave me a great deal. I highly recommend anyone wanting the HD-tivo to call valueelctronics.com you will not be disapointed.
