    Possible to set timer for ALL new episodes, and a limited number of reruns?

    Fairly simple to do. Take advantage of the double channel numbers in the dish system. TLC has two HD channels, one at 183 and one at 9488. (really just one channel but thats for the tech guys to explain) Set up one timer to just record new episode on channel 183 and set up a timer to just...

    Can u watch the inauguration at work?

    I remember two dates when I was in school that the whole school was glued to the TV all day. One was the trial of the century waiting for the OJ verdict in '95 and the other was 9/11 in '01. Anyways, I'll be at work listening to it on NPR or watching it on CNN.com

    HBO to offer Obama Inauguration for Free

    I should have expected trolls to give their 2 cents when I ask my question. Anyways, I hope E* opens up the HD channel as well as SD.

    AbsoluteHD BOMB!!! (Not True... uninformed CSR)

    Scott do you have any idea what the plan is for HD Absolute subs come Feb? If the switch happened today and I wanted to keep all my current channels that's a HUGE $20 dollar a month increase just for keeping the same lineup. If I wanted to pay the same monthly price I would loose 13 channels...

    AbsoluteHD BOMB!!! (Not True... uninformed CSR)

    I couldn't agree with you and the O.P. more. It just doesn't seem logical to be giving HD absolute customers anymore channels, and it looks like dish is going to let all the other HD customers suffer because of that. I just think it would be a bad move on dishs' part to give HD absolute more new...

    722 Took a dump

    I was just going to post about my 722 today also. I was a new customer back in June and my 722 was dead when I got home from work yesterday, 5-6 months?? It was new, well ventilated and never was touched. I have laptops with hard drives in them that are 4 years old and still going strong. I hope...

    Should i get HDMI???

    It seems to always be about image quality when talking about HDMI vs Component. When I switched to HDMI I noticed a significantly improved sound quality. It was very crisp and clear. However, if there was any change in image quality it was unnoticeable.

    129 Dropouts, Low sig level

    Recent Issues with 129 I signed up with E* about 4-5 months ago with HD absolute so I get most of my channels from 129. My signal strength was fairly strong and it only cut out about twice in the first 3 months due to heavy rain. Recently in the past 2 weeks my HD channels are cutting out more...

    FOX NEWS HD - Where are you?

    We arnt missing out not having Fox News HD. According to Fios and TWC subs who get the channel say its just like CNBC HD+, just a SD channel loaded with graphics. I would imagine this is the reason why it is being skipped by D* and E*.

    I would assume Encore-HD is only available to subs with the Encore premium package but some are claiming to have it available on DishHD Absolute without the Encore package. Can anyone confirm this?
