I recently consolidated tv's and found myself with an extra HDVR2 box (standard def, not HD). It is a Hughes Tivo box for DirecTV. Selling it w/ remote for $45 plus shipping if anyone is interested. I have heard of this being upgrade-able, but that is not my bag. PM me or reply if...

I am about to cancel out one of my boxes (an old Hughes Tivo)due to NEVER using it. In the process, I am contemplating upgrading my current h20 to an HD-DVR. I wanted some input though... 1) If you have one of these, are you happy with it? 2) What is my best course of action for the...

How does one go about putting in a formal channel request to D*?? Canadian cable subscribers have been enjoying The Fight Network for a year now. I'd like to get in on this!

Well, I just opened up the new H20 D* sent out to me, and it is an H20-100. My old one was an h20-600. Any major difference. Which should I keep? p.s. HDMI IS working for video out.

** Please understand that I love my DirecTV. Unless Comcast PAID ME monthly, I'd never switch back, so please don't jump down my throat claiming I am a D* basher. This is a serious post about an issue that needs addressing ** I was a victim of the H20 reboots in September. After reading...

Ok, take this with a grain of salt, but I was taking a leak at a Denny's in Cheyenne, Wyoming and overheard two D* installers talking about the impending launch of C-SPAN in HD! Could this be the mysterious Channell 77 we've been hearing about?

I am considering buying a second DVR, but don;t want to deal with missed appointments and excuses on install day. I just recently upgraded to MPEG-4 and the new dish and my multiswitch definitely has the room to add a second DVR. My question is this... Is there any specific OUT on the...

I got my upgrade done yesterday. PQ is solid! My question is, why do I only get NBC, CBS, ABC and FOX in HD. Why not UPN, WB and PBS?

I had the installer out this weekend to do my upgrade. Apparently no one took the time to look at my account to see that with the number of boxes I have (4 rooms, one with Tivo) that I'd need a new multi-switch. Result was a wasted Saturday and an unhappy installer yesterday who had to brave...

I am on the line with D* right now setting an appointment for upgrade. They are telling me it is a $99 charge. Is this normal? I know I can always call back in 20 minutes and get a credit if need be.

I just checked my bill online and the second $49.50 for NFL Superfan was added to my bill. The CSR claimed they had no clear timetable for when this would be credited. Just a head's up...

I've had my Samsung box for 2 plus years now. Last night, I was at a buddy's house and th epicture on his H10 seemed a helluva lot clearer on TNT. Granted, he's got a 42" plasma vs. my 65" RPTV, so the smaller picture will always appear crisper, but the 480 broadcats seemed a LOT better...

I have a multiswitch in my attic that runs to my HD box, 2 lines to my DTivo, and 2 separate regular boxes. I wanted to add a second box to my room with th HD so I can run Picture in Picture. Do I need a separate line run from the multiswitch or can that line be split?? Am I even asking...

Is anyone else having issues with their HD channels (only a few like HDNet, Discovery HD, ESPN HD, and a few others) around 1 pm on Sundays. This is the second week in a row I've had this issue. Last week there was a bit of snow on my dish and I thought that was the issue. This week it...

I bought a Samsung SIR-T160 last year when I first got DirecTV, because it was the only receiver available to me. How does this stack up against other receivers?? Should I upgrade??

Anyone have any idea where these new HD channels that were supposed to launch late June/early July are?? I called DirecTV the other day to get a timetable and was told there are NO NEW HD CHANNELS COMING. Someone talk me off this ledge...
