Problem controlling VIP boxes with IR from PC. When I tried to use Media Center and a tuner card with my Dish box, I ran into problems because I could not get the computer IR hookup to change the channels on the dish box. I was using VIP series receivers and the only way I could do good...

Thanks Scott and Dish Network! The event was really interesting and informative. I think it was most interesting to see Charlie speak so openly and candidly in response to our questions. Scott did a great job setting the intensity by starting off with the whoppers. I also got to see what a...

I used to have DN and had a lot of problems with WTVF (5) and WSMV (4). When I switched to an Over the Air antenna, I found the same problems with the originating signals. Never were the problems just with DN. I suspect based on that experience that the WZTV problem is most likely with their...

Any reason that they moved all of the Nashville Local HD?

Thank you for checking into this Scott. I was looking forward to having Noggin around in the evening to replace the Power Rangers.

I think the bigger point here is that there are specific channels that he wants and that is why it is so disappointing. Dish can have unlimited satellite capacity, but if they keep uplinking channels and not making them available for contract or other technical problems, they will never be the...

Comcast in Nashville Added SciFi HD and USA HD perhaps DirecTV is not the only alternative.

I bet that this is either 1. A move to get Fox Business on E* or 2. It worked for HDNET why not do it for Fox News. Maybe they will sue for Nat Geo next.

Maybe he is just going to wait for Sirius and XM to merge and then try the merger stuff again using the same grounds they used to get the govt to go along.

I recently moved to Nashville and moved Dish and my 622 with me. I used an OTA Antenna in Utah which worked well, but I cannot get it to work as well out here as the Local TV Ground transmitters are all on separate ends of the valley. Nashville has a lot of hills and trees which also make it...

In Nashville I have noticed that it happens on both OTA and Dish Fed Locals. Especially Channel 5 (WTVF) and mostly during sporting events.

I think the bigger story here is which of the content providers have the guts to push out HDCP. They can choose to do anything that they like, but if they are premium providers, they will know quickly after more subscriber churn reports turn up.

This all makes me wonder if Charlie has burnt out the content providers by his shrewd bargaining in the past. The whole Court TV thing and such. Perhaps this hold out is all about negotiation and keeping the prices reasonable. Still I am pretty impatient about both Sci-FI and USA HD since the...

I watch the 4400 on USA and would like to see even a stretched picture in HD so that it comes through better than the overcompressed SD picture we currently get on that channel.

We see the same thing happen in Nashville with the Predators on FSN South. At least all of the recent games have been in the HD alternates.

SD pq still has artifacts but shows up better on component connection I moved from Dish to Analog cable in 2002 after being tired of their over compressed picture quality. I decided to go back for the HD programming in 2007. I have a 211 and 622 receiver and both are running HDTVs. When...

My kid decided one day to record 'paid programming' I was wondering why both tuners were going constantly on my DVR. It was not until we lost all our Stargate SGI episodes that we realized we now had a dvr full of garbage that took a while to delete using the user-friendly dish interface.

Perhaps the CNN & TBS people are not as well prepared as the Discovery Networks.

Maybe DISH is getting smart and considering providing VOIP service. Since these boxes run some form of Linux, they can send data out the phone port from the Ethernet port.
