Anyone know of any plans for DirecTV to broadcast some MLB Extra Innings games in HD on some of the "special event" channels like they have been doing for the NBA (same spot where the NFL games were)? I have already been seeing some spring training highlights from NESN HD on sportscenter and...

Very strange, Some programs during the day come over the digital channel just fine, get very good signal with a Hughes HTL HD box, but other programs (specificly all football games), have a very very small signal, well into the "bad" range. I pick up all other HD stations just fine, ABC is the...

On some cameras on ESPN HD, I see horizontal lines flicker on the screen. I have phoned a few friends around the country to check it out to make sure it is not my set, it happens on their ESPN HD as well. It is not all the time, but is select cameras. For instance on camera on the Texas / Ark...

Looks like they have been tinkering with the 90's all day. Im excited.

What is the deal here? This pisses me off because this is a channel i PAY to watch, it is not just like standard cable, i pay to see this in HD, and it is not in HD. Directv will get a call and a complaint for this stunt.

Now that the end of the season is fast approaching, it is time to wish for FOX to broadcast the games in HD. After searching online for some time, I cannot find any mention of FOX doing any HD broadcasts for MLB games. I know they are planning on doing many national FOX HD broadcasts next...

So, Instead of using the "pay per view" for some of this hot "adult programming" (which means nightcalls that show is real hot you cannot deny it) can you order the playboy channel on the website for like an hour and then cancel it online and be charged only for the prorated time you "used" it...

With the new 4:3 HD monitor, it is quite annoying every time i tune into channels like ESPN HD, Discovery HD, and any other HD channel for that matter, as all of the 16:9 images are squeezed onto the 4:3 monitor. Is it possible to set a default ratio on the CHANNEL LEVEL on the HTL HD? I...

I am going to buy another HDTV tomorrow and another HTL-HD. I subscibe to the HD package on another television in this house, will I be charged the $10.99 twice for two boxes or just once?

Hi, I am wishing to get into the world of FTA, as I find many of the channels available and programming very intersting. I travel internationaly very frequently and have come to known some of these channels well, like Dubai Sports and such. The issue is I live in a apartment with a...

Hi, I installed a new 3LNB for HD, put 4 cables into a 5X8 switch. On my Hughes HTL-HD i only get Sat A at 95%, and sat B and C are at 0 with no signal. All the other boxes in the house (4 other ones) get 100% for SAT A (they do not use the other LNBs) Why Am I not getting B or C on...

Can i put my account on "vacation hold" for a few weeks while I am away and not be paying full price for it? I guess it does not matter right now, i am under the 4 free months for NFL Sunday ticket and the 6 free months of the HD package. Any reason to put it on hold? What is the little...

Hi all, I finally got my first HD receiver today, the hughes HTL HD. I output to the reciever to the Mitsu with the supplied DVI cable. Looks great, get HD channels at 1080i (Hdnet, Discovery, etc). Now, i hear that some folks say that SD tv may look better with component out from the...

Hi all, As my HDTV carrer is now a week old, and I am waiting for my Directv HD box to arrive from ABT (Hughes HTL-HD), i was wondering if it was possible to get my sat input from 480i to 480P. I have a lower end Mitsubishi, the WS-55313 (im a college student!) and want to get the best...

I want to upgrade my Directv dish to the 3 LNB model in another location. When I bought my 3 LNB here in PHX, i got it with new service, so it ended up being free with activation. The location I want the new dish for (and HD programming) is for an account that already has Directv (have had it...

Hi all, I live in the Phoenix area (go to school @ ASU in Tempe). I have a Mitsu 55 inch HD and will soon be getting the Hughes HD reciever from ABT (early in the week). I am a DirecTV subscriber and will subscribe to the HD programs in hopes that they will add a lot more soon!! Now, i...

Hi, I recently purchased a 2 room system with the 3 LNB 18x20 dish. I was told at the time (4 days ago) that their was a rebate for the price of the system and to call directv to get the forms, etc. I called Directv, and of course no one knew what i was talking about. I then talked to...

Hi All, Now that i bought the DirecTV 3 LNB dish (and for some reason thought only to get the regular non HD recievers at the time.......), I went out and *had* to buy the Mitsu 55" HD TV for my apartment. Now that i am knee deep in the digital HD craze here, I want to find a inexpensive...

I bought a Directv system from bestbuy, and have been playing with the thing for over 6 hours now, and i get no signal at all, 0% for all three sats. It is a triple LNB with Philips boxes (DSX-5500). It has the built in 4 switch for the coax cable out to the boxes on the head of the dish...
