    Guide data for locals gone?

    Is anyone else having a problem where the guide data for just the locals is not there? I have the AT&T Homezone service which uses Dish Network for the TV programming. I called Homezone tech support and they said it is a known problem they are dealing with and that the satellites themselves do...

    Showtime volume issue?

    Problem is fixed, sorta Well, AT&T called me back and said there was an issue with the secondary audio for those channels. Once I changed the secondary audio to a different setting then English (I thought that setting was correct) or Seconday Audio to another language (I chose Spanish since it...

    Showtime volume issue?

    Is anyone else experiencing an issue with SHO-E and SHO-W having really low volume levels? The rest of the Showtime channels as well as the standard channels are fine but I have to crank up the TV really high (to the point that the speakers are humming) to listen to them. I called AT&T...

    Ok, I guess I have to get used to "powering off" TV2. It is easy to just shut the TV itself off but I suppose it won't free up that tuner unless you press the TV2 power button for the receiver. I would pay good money for that MediaPoint. Anyone from AT&T listening?

    EXCLUSIVE: AT&T HomeZone First Look

    Hi Gary, Everything is going well so far. The FF problem was a noob problem on my end as I was pushing the track forward button instead of the FF button. The interface is nice (the colors are a bit loud sometimes). DVR recording setup is very easy. The multi-colored buttons on the remote...

    Yup, you are right. The buttons on the ends are for track skipping.

    First impression Well, I have been pretty busy at work and haven't tried out too much yet, but here is what I have so far: Was able to download a movie from Movielink with no issues. Haven't watched it yet, so I am not charged for it. I have 28 days from when I download it to start...

    News on the HD version of Homezone When the AT&T rep was out for the install, I asked him about the HD version. I guess they changed their mind and are going to use the 622 receiver with modified software for the HD version and the 2wire for the SD version. He expects availability to be...

    Well, I received the wireless gateway that I had to have when I ordered Homezone on Sat. I started to wonder about the Homezone receiver, so I called AT&T and they said that the dish installer would bring it out. I know when the 622 receivers first came out, they were being sent direct to the...

    Homezone SD or HD It was Homezone that I tried to order here in Ohio through the 800# posted on the Homezone page. They said that even though they will have HD later, for the pilot in Ohio, only SD is being offered. Could that be why there is no OTA tuner mentioned? It seems right that the...
