    HD Problems with Sat. 129

    Thanks for all the responses guys. I am located in Lexington, NC, which is about 20 minutes south of Winston-Salem and about 1 hour north of Charlotte. Someone mentioned I can also repoint the satellite? What is my best option? Usually in the afternoons, all channels on 129 go in and out way...

    HD Problems with Sat. 129

    Hey guys. I have noticed in the slightest little bit of cloud cover that I am having problems with some of the recent HD additions that are housed on satellite 129. During the same period, for instance, I have no problems at all watching ESPNHD, which I believe is on satellite 110. Does anyone...

    Masn Hd

    Hey guys. Saw where Swanni said this AM in his email that the Orioles and Nats will have 40 games a piece broadcast in HD this year on MASN. In the email, it said all cable and satellite carriers have agreed to carry the HD version of the channel. Can anyone confirm? Go Birds!

    ESPN Full Court Free Preview

    According to the program guide, Syracuse and South Florida is on Full Court at 12:00, but when I try to tune to that channel I still get the pop up box with the price. Anybody else having any luck?

    Mpeg4

    Pardon the question most probably already know the answer to, but I keep reading where all the new DirectTV HD channels are in MPEG4. I may be mistaken, but aren't all of DISH's HD channels also in MPEG4?

    History HD - Today?

    Can you try turning the CC off on your menu setup on the DISH box, and see if you still see it on History HD? Just curious.

    Anybody else seeing Closed Captioning only on History HD? I went to my preferences on the VIP622, and CC is turned off. This is the only channel I am seeing the Closed Captioning on.

    Fsn Hd

    I have FSN South HD, and just checked my online guide, and I too see the Colorado-Colarado State game and the Oklahoma-North Texas games listed, but no USC-Idaho. Hopefully by Saturday night they will list that one also. As a side note, I checked the guide for Saturday's Versus college games...

    Fsn Hd

    Dont know how reliable it is, but I just went onto Dish's website, and looked at their online program guide for Saturday. I did not see any games on any of the Regional FSN HD's.

    Fsn Hd

    Anybody got any info on this? I am in NC, and have FSN South HD. Looked through the program guide for Saturday's games, and nothing is listed on FSN South. I know FSN is showing a quadrupleheader, and that FSN South is receiving all the games. What a bunch of junk if DISH has all these regional...

    Big Ten Network

    I know the author of this article must be an idiot with what he wrote, but man I wish this was true: " 38The Big Ten Network, which does not yet have a deal to be aired on Comcast, is slated to cover Penn State's opener against Florida International and the Nits' Sept. 15 contest against...

    Big Ten Network

    Not much new, but thought I would share. Basically this article covers the Comcast 100% negative idea, but gives the glimmer of hope for E*. In my eyes, at this point, a very faint glimmer. BTW, I live in the heart of ACC country, and am a big NC State fan. But, I would love to have this...

    Need Advise for OTA Antenna

    OK Guys. I am happy to report that I purchased the ChannelMaster CM4221 OTA, and I had it installed today. Everything comes in fine. My FOX, CBS, and ABC digital feeds all come in in the high 80's - low 90's. The NBC digital feed is in the low 70's. So I am able to see all my broadcast football...

    Cstv Hd

    Is there even such a thing? I am a big sports junkie, so I would love to get any sports channel in HD, but I am not even sure if CSTV has a HD feed. Anyone know?

    The regional sports networks you get here in NC are: Fox Sports South, SportSouth, MASN, and MASN2. As for HD, DISH offers both Fox Sports South HD and Sportsouth HD. You will get those if you subscribe to the HD package and AT100+ or above.

    Big Ten Network

    Found this article this morning. According to this article, DISH is having "constructive talks" with the B10 Network. Comcast is listed as very grim. The Columbus Dispatch : OSU fans must race clock to get satellite TV

    DISH HD Vip622 Menu Setup

    OK Guys, I went ahead and ordered the HDMI cable for $7 bucks or so which included shipping. I will let you know what everything looks like when I get it and hook it up, hopefully it won't take but a couple days to get here. I appreciate all the help, but I hope you guys don't think I am an...

    DISH HD Vip622 Menu Setup

    Cool I like the price of that HDMI cable. For the HDMI cable that I am using on my Surround Sound DVD Upconverter, I bought a Monster HDMI cable from Best Buy that was around $70. Will the quality on the cheaper one above suffice? Believe me, my wife will like a $4.50 HDMI cable better than a...

    DISH HD Vip622 Menu Setup

    I love DISH's programming, but if I wrote down everything and every negative experience I have had with installers, CSR's etc. I could write a novel. Of course I am probably preaching to the choir.
