Exactly :D !!!

I queried Viacom's MTV Networks in regards to their Comedy Central brand in HD, in relation to Dish Network's HD Only content packages... Their response as follows... 'We are currently looking at presenting all our shows in HD by Jan. of 2009.' Viewer Services @ Comedy Central Now...

SAT 129 is acting up... and this time, a bit more seriously, this AM... Signal loss (ERROR CODE 002) after my recent repositioning... As previously mentioned, HD Only package... after repoint w/1000.2, 129 SAT reception was solid for about 30-45 days. Now...? 002 Signal Loss Error at...

Dr Gene Scott...?!! The dude is out there, way out there, and his wife, spins the same... That's not PAC, that's religion, and its paid for. Scott defines himself as an educator, in reality — it's theological... "Am I boring you?!!..." Dr. Gene Scott He's rather amusing, at times, but...

I know it's confusing, but just consider the latest impact upon Sirius/XM merger and associated mandates; a percentage of spectrum must be inline and defined as education/public interest... consider it as a PSA (Public Service Announcement). Dish, to be considered a good citizen, must provide a...

A percentage of spectrum must be allocated/dedicated to PACs (Public Access Channels); via FCC mandates. You may not charge for carriage of a Public Access Channel... That would defeat the purpose of PACs. In all actuality, it's just the opposite... Dish must pay to carry the PAC channels to...

If the OTA is multicasting, broadcasting more than one channel (i.e., 6.1, 6.2, 6.3), it poses compression issues (as well as atmospheric conditions), but will say... OTA is my preferable Olympic feed over SAT; PQ is crisper, sharper, with little to no lag (blur) or pix...

The EPG matter is under current FCC consideration/investigation; intentional blockage of PSIP data stream content (program name, program description, station schedule — embedded in the DTV OTA signal)... Hopefully, the matter will be addressed soon.

Still Thinking DBS Merger? Again, Don't Count on It Monday, August 11, 2008 (SkyReport) There are still lingering suggestions that the nation's two DBS platforms - DISH Network and DIRECTV - could pursue a merger. And there are more voices who say a combination of small dish companies...

Todos Santos, Baja, we have DirecTV-Latin American, in our villa, as do all our ex-pat neighbors — for the simple reason, the last thing you want to do is break the law down in Mexico, (Dish logo or blank). The rumors of police in Mexico being corrupt, are true, in most cases. Dish does not...

I'm 'TV1' in my household... sorry.

This is simply amazing... :) !!! I'm a 722 'HD Only' client... Dish Feeds: In the 'TV Entrainment' section of the DVR VOD, already residing on the DVR... its content's are solely, 1080i HD (only 2 selections, at present). Furthermore, The 'TV Entrainment' DVR VOD section contain(s) no SD...

That approximate 40% figure thrown at me, through a TSR (we know such a sources, must betaken with a grain of salt) :o

Spatch, The poll indicates Voom was viable (as the poll indicates approximately 50/50)... Why not consider a new poll down the line that facilitates the option for 'both', as Dish had the bandwidth all along...? p.s., Don't get sucked in by flamers! ;) I know you're well beyond that...

You have a couple of options, Steve... 1.) Yes, you could get a separate dish for 129... as to the trees, I don't know where Dish stands on such obstructions... One would assume they'd put a dedicated dish in a location (if feasible) for you, at no additional cost. 2.) There's always a...

HammerDown, I haven't tried the VODs in a while, as I found the PQ pretty bad on my 47" 1080p set (I'm an HD Only client). Have you experimented with other, so called 'On Demand' feeds'? And another question, are these actually streamed to the drive, as 'On-Demand' requests? If so, that's...

Just off the phone w/a Dish TSR, explained HD Only interactive obstacles, the TSR though it was a brilliant spin, and will push his super for possible Channel 100HD inclusion... Maybe SW engineers can whip something up, Monday for Tuesday night/morn dispatch...?

Very, very true... they should have thought of that since an estimated 40% of Dish clients are HD. They could have had a Channel 100HD... as I'm an HD Only client. Good concept, dmendenjr! Sometimes its difficult to see the forest through the trees...

Thanks! Don't forget NBC's website for video feeds and stats (Mac users, you'll have to download 'MS Silverlight®' codec; the site will prompt you when you select to play a particular video — this will happen only once - well worth the effort!)... video is very crisp, sharp, and true to detail...

The dial-out should only apply to PPV. I'd call in, at this point... Understand, they can reset your 722 remotely, but at times, you may lose aspects; how you've taught your 722 to record and behave, through their remote reset... Did you confirm 'content time' of the VOD program?

My re-point resolved my 'Signal Loss Error Code 002'. Others are reporting similar. levibluewa resides in the Pacific NW and is, unfortunately, residing on the edge of 129's present, low power footprint. The SAT's movement, plays hell with his reception. :(

Ditto... personally, I believe NBC ruined the opening — with their overtly excessive breaks, and selfish network promos. Wish I could see it, completely, and uninterrupted, as that was simply spectacular, amazing — the choreography and the 1/4 mile floor mounted LCD, etc; stellar!!! But with...

Check the 'time' field, to see if there's actually content in the VOD subject. If it shows '0:00', then its a dud. It happens on occasion(s)...

Yes, I would ask for a re-point... make sure its gratis, as 129 is sick (12 missing solar panels, unstable orbit; has to be repositioned, approximately 2x per hour). When the field tech arrives, confirm trip-ticket is at Dish's expense. If not, have it cleared prior to work. Its tough on the...

It was explained to me, by S-TSR, it takes about 30 to 40 seconds for the STB to query the 1080p monitor via the STB, and call Dish for authorization. Paramount: STB: MUST BE USING HDMi & CONNECTED TO A PHONE LINE; Make sure no one is on the phone when you request the film!!!. I've yet, and...
