    I have noticed that since DirecTV added the "scoreguide" feature my caller id display doesn't work on those channels. It works fine when not tuned to a sports channel that offers scoreguide. Any suggestions?

    Is there a way to record without a DVR?

    Since I changed to DirecTv and got two H21 HD receivers, I find that I can't record to my vcr because the H21's require a B band converter inline to the receivers. I tried using a splitter but that resulted in no signal. Is there a way to record to my VCR or is a receiver with DVR capability...

    Final Dish Bill After Switching To DirecTV

    I switched to DirecTV April 5, 2008 and cancelled Dish the same day. I have yet to receive a final bill from Dish. My 18 month contract would have been up in October of this year, so I should have had a penalty to pay. They sent me a box and I returned the HD receiver, remote and LNB about 10...

    I would like a few suggestions on ways to fill the screen of my 42" plasma when watching stuff broadcast in the 4:3 format. Should I just go to some soft of zoom setting on my TV remote?

    Can't disable "Native" in H21 receiver

    I had DirecTV installed yesterday (4/5) and I can't disable native in the HDTV settings under video. I have a 720p widescreen and have TV type set to 16:9 TV resolutions set to 720p. Should I choose an additional resolution as well?

    Set up VCR to record off air from H21 receiver.

    I noticed that there is no coax output on the back of the H21 HD receiver. I used this output on an older receiver to feed the video signal to the VCR antenna in coax so I could record OA signals. I only do this once in a while, so I didn't opt for the DVR. Is there any way to do this or am I...
