So I used to use this forum a bunch about 12-13 years ago but as my career moved along and my family grew I kinda let the Dish Network and later on Directv techs take over my TV viewing. However, I have returned hoping for some information. I currently have DirecTV and would like to install a...

Is anyone else having a problem with AT&T wifi calling working on their home wifi network? I have TWC internet and a Apple Airport extreme 5th generation. AT&T wifi does not want to enable when on my home network. I have great service at my home, so It won't enable automatically anyway, but...

Is anyone else having an issue with their sound sounding muffled on TBS (MLB playoff games) and FX this evening? Every other commercial has terrible sound and seems to be going in and out during the broadcast as well. Trying to determine if my surround system is finally going out or if its the...

Ok really quick, just wanted to make sure I am not wrong here. Just contacted DirecTV since my HR-44 box refuses to stay connected to my wifi. I know wifi is not the best way to connect streaming devices, however, in this house at this time. Its the only way possible. I have multiple other...

Is there any reason a new customer would be given an R16 STB? I had friends that signed up yesterday, and that's what they were given. I noticed almost immediately when I went to their house that they didn't have HD so I had to check it out. They only have one TV hooked up, so they would have...

Hey gents, I am still new to DirecTV (for a second time). I tried to watch some programming on FX On demand today and a dialog box came up asking me to go to www.directv.com or call a number if I want to subscribe to that channel. I have the extra package and FX is included. Is there some...

After a year away at TWC, I have come back to DirecTV. I feel like I just rode a time machine from 2001 to 2013. Can someone explain to me why cable companies don't upgrade their tech like the Satellite companies have done? I mean hell, they are HARDWIRED to each and every home. If they...

Is there anyway to transfer HD content off a Time Warner DVR Box to a computer? I work in a Public Relations office and we are always recording news clips that correspond with my business (we are in the news a lot down here). I would like to archive these clips in HD. Currently, I have to use a...

I live in Laredo TX and I am not sure if the TV Station is broadcasting a bad signal or if My antenna is out of wack. Fox 39 KXOF-TV in HD is very blocky and unwatchable at some points of the day. However, my signal indicator is showing between 84-86% and that the frequency is locked. I have...

I think I am finally going to do it. I think when my billing cycle comes up, I am finally going to drop DirecTV, or at least greatly decrease channel package. I have recently installed a TV antenna and get all our locals plus a few extras OTA. We just don't watch much TV off the major...

Disclaimer, before anyone gives me grief, I am doing exactly what Apple support suggested I do. I am looking for the iDVD program for OS X. Apparently, it is not part of iLife anymore, as my MacBook Pro came with iLife but not iDVD. The Apple support guy I spoke with suggested that I find a...

Anyone have any opinions on what a good Sirius radio? I would like one that I can take to work and listen to simply through a AUX input in my work vehicle, but is easy enough to to take from my personal car to my work car. I would also like to have the same unit be able to be used in my garage...

Wow, just wanted to say, Disney HD looks GREAT. "Cars "is on right now, and it looks great. I know people like debating on the quality of HD on E* vs. D* but I am going to tell ya, I have had both, and D* blows E* away. When I had E*, I always noticed blocking in the pictures during...

Just curious if D* has a major issue with rain fade. In clear skies, I have signal strength on most transponders in the high 90s-100. However, it seems every time it more than sprinkles outside, I lose signal. I had E* for years and although I had rain fade, it was never near this bad. Since...

Hello everyone, Just got D* installed today and I am having trouble keeping the MRV function connected. I have an HR24 and H24. after running network connection tests that show successful, I pull up a program off the DVR on the H24 and begin viewing. I soon get a message stating that...

I am a lifelong Dish Network customer looking to possibly make the switch. However, HD locals are not available in my area. This is a must for me as I can only get one OTA. I currently have my Dish Network service address moved to San Antonio. Is this possible with Direct TV? Even if I have...

Need some help here, not sure whats wrong, I have been moving and I have had my 722 disconnected for a better part of a month. I put up my 1000.2 dish today and peaked it with the help of my Vip 211k. I recieves all channels just fine, with transponders on all birds in the 60-80 range. Now...

Just curious, maybe I missed something, but I thought that Dish Network was going to be importing neighboring DMA's into markets without a full lineup of the "big 4" networks. Laredo, TX does not have an ABC affiliate, but Direct and Time Warner here import the San Antonio ABC channel. I...

This is copy and pasted out of the agreement I just received from my HOA. I am just curious how legal this is. I will be placing my dish where its best to pick up signal. Hopefully I abide by their rules. However, if I cannot, I was wondering if I would have a leg to stand on.

I am moving into a pretty strict HOA next month or early July in Laredo, TX. Normally I would just move my dish myself but this time I suspect if something isn't done exactly right, I will get fined. I can't call dish network because as far as they know I live 200 miles away. So I guess I am...

Today at 3 p.m. The Astros play the Cardinals on Fox Sports Houston. Although it's a subfeed of fox sports southwest, which is my Regional sports network, dish will not be showing the Astros feed of the game, even on an alternate channel. My question is, if I had the sports package that gave...

Just noticed that the iphone app MLB at Bat 2010 app has accomplished letting you listen the game audio in the background while you use other apps. I have been using this app since it came out last year and during spring training this year and just noticed this feature. Is this new?

Ok folks, anyone ever have their service address changed back to their billing address out of nowhere? Came home today to watch football and SURPRISE! My HD locals gone. still receiving my correct "moved to" locals, but the HD were no where to be found. Online chat 5 times to get fixed...

Just curious if anyone else has had trouble "moving" their service address Lately. I had a service address in San Antonio TX ( I live in Laredo, TX) which I had to move back a few months ago related to a move. Now, when I tried to move back, they refused to move my service address unless a...

Do I need to format and install the full version of Win7 so my computer doesn't start shutting down sometime next year? I am currently running the Win7 Release Candidate. Or can I just buy the upgrade or full version and change the product key. I am very happy with my computer at the moment...
