    Dish Network Launches Nesn Hd

    I knew they wouldn't go 24/7 when they finally put it up which is why I finally added DirecTV to my setup. I'm glad they finally got NESNHD but I was also worried they would spot beam it and since I only "moved" to Boston I wouldn't be able to get the signal. I worry Direct will blackout the...

    CONUS HD Locals

    Will be interesting, it is one of the only reasons I'm still a customer. They will loose my 45 bucks a month. Of course they could have kept my 100 bucks a month if they had just made NESN HD available. I'm still making adjustments, trying to watch all the stuff on the DVR, and getting the...

    New DishHD $29.99 HD Only Package Details

    I made one phone call and told them I wanted HD only, guy said no problem. I'm no longer under contract as I've been with Dish since 1996 so it might be they aren't giving me a hard time because they know I'd cancel altogether and something is better than nothing.

    New DishHD $29.99 HD Only Package Details

    Just did the exact same thing, got Direct installed last Wed and while I think their button layout is a little confusing (the jump forward, jump back and live buttons are better on Dish) and the lack of a remote that goes threw walls is an issue I have so far been impressed with the picture...

    Still no MLB EI?

    DirecTV is on the way to the house for install today because of MLB EI package. Last year I tried the MLB.com solution with a mac connected to my plasma but it doesn't really work, you can't pause a live game and the video (even enhanced which you pay extra for) sucks.

    TBS-HD (and TNT-HD I guess) - is ANYTHING in OAR?

    I saw that someone asked about The Office on TBS and from what I've seen so far these are NOT the HD versions of the show that airs OTA. They just look too fuzzy and have a fake letterboxed look to them. Hopefully they start showing the real shows, heck even the ones I buy from iTunes and then...

    Problems With TBS HD

    Problems With TBS HD

    My TBS HD just went out a few minutes ago and hasn't come back, I'm doing a check switch but it seems to be a bigger issue than just my dish. It's fine on TBS-SD.

    Dish Is now showing TBS HD!

    Congrats Scott on seeing last nights awesome game in person but I will say seeing it in HD at my house in LA, CA was beautiful. Thanks Bob and all the rest of us who complained about not getting TBS-HD after watching the whole season with NESN-SD while my sister in law talked about NESH HD was...

    Dish HD VS DIRECTV HD POll (switch)

    Keeping the NESH HD theme rolling. If next March comes and it hasn't been added I'll be switching. I'm really disappointed they didn't add TBS-HD in time for the playoffs this year but for now I'll ride DISH out for a few months and know that I'm not watching another baseball season in SD.

    Big 10 in HD? Nice!

    Was very impressed by the quality of all the games this weekend and even enjoyed the Friday Night Tailgate and Saturday pregame shows. The live remotes from Wisconsin and Indiana were funny and brought back memories of 20 years ago (was it really 20 years ago) with all their shots of campus...

    NESN HD - letter to CEO

    Maybe if we all use KDWEBSOL's avatar!! It makes me feel better that I'm not alone. Watching Coco's catch in SD last nigth and then seeing it in HD on SportsCenter made me realize I'm not going to wait much longer. Does DirecTV broadcast all of NESNHD to their subscribers and is it a spot...

    Dish Network Statement on MLB

    Can't believe I'm actually thinking about getting CABLE!! Wow 12 years of Dish support down the drain. P.S. I'm not buying the cost line they use anymore, my bill just went up 10 percent!

    Guess it depends if he has DirecTV and wants to watch his team play. :D

    INDEMAND will carry MLB EI? No so fast says MLB... How about E*?

    Lets see how many of those million dollar skybox's the Dodgers sell to Corporations when they can no longer write them off.

    INDEMAND will carry MLB EI? No so fast says MLB... How about E*?

    If that is the case then MLB had zero intention of letting Echostar in on the deal. What buyer would want to give the same money as another buyer but not all the same things back??

    Corrupted hard drive error on your 622 last night?

    I also got it last Thursday, pulled the plug on the 622 and when I restarted it about 30 minutes later it was fine.

    622 disappearing timers

    Let me add to the people who still have disappearing timers on the OTA Channels. I'm constantly loosing my preset for CSI, Survivor, Earl, Lost, etc. when they are set to record off the yellow OTA Local HD channels. They seem fine on the new HDLIL's but if I need to record three things I have...

    what channel is NESNHD?

    I will say that the NESN channel (434) does look better this year or maybe it was just that they actually won an opening day game. It isn't HD but if they do the widescreen wednesday thing this year it should look good even in SD. Go Sox.
