Ha you wish. The joy of MLBEI is the ability to switch from game to game. If you want to only watch one game, MLB wants you to go here... http://mlb.tv

The problem with that is that they don't want you able to remove digital information from the DVR. Giving firewire access (two way) would open them up to pirates.

No it is correct. Earthlink bought Sprint dialup a couple years ago.

Down goes the stock!

Yawn... ;)

All this does is raise rates for all of us. :( Rupert does not own DirecTV yet, so any talk about him being involved is incorrect. Rupert has no say about any of this.

Thats sort of what TiVo and NFL Sunday Ticket have going... I dumped NHL CI this year so I can't comment if DirecTV is doing it.

I read the thread again and see how you came to your conclusion. I guess 50x was implied, but not specified. SCO aside, most future PVRs will be based upon Linux and hande fragmentation well. True, but if planned for, any programmer can take that into consideration and run a defrag utility...

LMAO... Thats like saying, "Man will walk on Mars, at some point."

Don't be condensending. I use HP-UX every day to complete my work and I integrate UNIX servers for the U.S. Navy. There is nothing you can say that I don't already know about JFS, xfs, extfs or any other journaled file system technology. I would expect someone who thinks a username of...

I doubt the file system of a Dish DVR is any more advanced than FAT32. Such a file system has overhead that a DVR doesn't need. A disk defrag tool and the constant restarts that make a Dish DVR a Dish DVR is all you need.

Whoa, how do you make that assumption?

From what I've read at TiVo Community, the TiVo handles the defrag on its own.

Whats the difference? You'd still need to buy a Sirius radio.... If you want better music from your DSB provider, you'll still need to switch.

I don't know, I can watch it fine on DirecTV. <- James being a troll...

Great job Scott!

No idea since I use the DVI output.

I was impressed with the US Open. Our CBS here in Phoenix used that to launch their HDTV signal.

Tampa, you got me thinking about what I hate about how satellite does HD. Super dish for Dish and the triple LNB for DirecTV. These dishes are getting bigger not smaller and that is one reason I can see myself going back to cable.

VCR, had to look that one up... :P

25 channels and still mostly crap. I love ESPN-HD when they are showing games in HD, but as with most of these channels they are not true HD. Soon though, soon.

Well that depends on the DVD Player and what you are watching. I have a Samsung DVD-HD931 which has a DVI output so my DVD's look great (it actually scales a DVD up to 720p/1080i). My old Sony DVD was good, but I would notice that it didn't look as good as HDTV. Now OTH and Sat both look the...

Did I see a PVR button on a DVR remote? :shock:

Thats not false advertisement.

Well, lets wait until someone has a test unit. It might be buggy right now but they could get it all fixed by the time they eventually release it. Sounds like they have plenty of time. Its not like DirecTV has a HD DVR going right now.
