I just switched back to Dish, but thought I would share how to get the best offer to stay from DirecTV. I might have taken it, but they waited until I already had all new equipment and a shiny new 2 year contract with Dish to make me the offer. Call and disconnect. They will make you an offer...

Hearst owned KCCI was still off an hour ago

If you have had all the techs out etc. I doubt this is your problem, but a month or two ago I noticed my picture was not HD anymore. Plus, none of my regularly scheduled series were recording. Finally figured out that somehow the DVR had switched to all the SD channels, and wasn't showing any...

Read my post. MediaCom provides channels from both the Des Moines AND Iowa City/Cedar Rapids/Waterloo area (plus the sub-channels). DTV only provides us the primary Des Moines channels. KGAN is a Sinclair station, so both the Hearst and Sinclair contracts would have to come up for renewal at...

KCCI, a Hearst station in Des Moines is off. If I lived a mile east I could get the Waterloo CBS station. I've got one TV in the house connected to an antenna that gets the Waterloo stations. Its not really an issue for us, we don't watch that much network tv. The one suffering is my mom...

There is no all in one app for Windows devices, that will let you watch your playlist AND stream all the channels live. However, there is a workaround until and if DirecTV provides such an app. You can go to the DirecTV.com site and stream many channel, but unfortunately not locals. Or sports...

I'm posting this in case someone is having the same issue I did, until I finally put 2 and 2 together last night. I had disconnected my GenieGo, and while the Mobile DVR app was working fine on my Android devices, the GenieGo apps on my laptop and Windows tablet were not able to find my DVRs...

You probably have more than the rest of us who are just subscribers, but most of us probably have outdated equipment sitting in a closet somewhere. I've got Dish and DirecTV receivers, plus an out of date SD only Tivo, etc, etc, (and now a GenieGo) that I hate to throw away, yet the equipment...

Do you still have your GenieGo connected to your DVR? Once you disconnect it the app will cease to work, and support for the device and app ends on the 18th. It won't work after that. I have a Windows tablet and laptop, and that's the situation I'm in as well. I hope the release the apps for...

I got my GenieGo free about a year ago as part of an upgrade, so at least I'm not out any money, but I am frustrated that DirecTV has taken a step backward, unless you watch on an iPad, iPhone, or android device. The GenieGo app for Windows devices is no longer supported. My tablet happens to...

Did you have a GenieGo? I had disconnected mine, but was getting the result you were. Rebooted the Genie receiver and cleared the cache and data of the DirecTV app on my phone. then restarted the app and tried again and it connected. Downloaded the app on my wife's phone (she didn't already...

Mine still seems to be working. Now if I could just get it to record my Cards games on Fox Sports Midwest instead of the home RSN of whoever they are playing.

I think I spoke to soon in my last post. Season record doesn't seem to be working, again or still.

My experience has been that you can turn things on online, but to turn them off again you need to call in.

I think mine started again as well. Not sure, I turned the game on while I was Skyping with my son earlier, and it was marked to record on the guide. I had used the guide to set games to record earlier in the week, but didn't think I had gone as far as Saturday. When we were done Skyping I...

Maybe I just don't watch enough TV, but when the various premium channels have their free promotional weekends I go through and record all the stuff that looks interesting. However, I didn't even bother this past weekend, because with the programs we record and watch regularly, MLB games I...

I've tried it both ways. Didn't change anything when the season ended last year. The funny thing is that when the spring season games started, they automatically recorded. About halfway through, they stopped. I was hoping they would start up again when the regular season started, but no such...

I can record from the guide, but I'm trying to set up a season record for a particular team. It is supposed to record first run, and as I said before, it says I have a season record, but it doesn't record unless I set it from the guide. From the other responses, it isn't just me. I just tried...

Having the same problem with my HR-44. Deleted and renewed, still doesn't record, even though it tells me it tells me its already doing the season record when I try to add it. Pretty sure it did the same thing last year, but I don't remember what I did to solve it.

I've had to clear snow of the dish each morning the past two days. Mine is on the ground, but its between the alley and our deck, and with the alley getting plowed it's getting deep to get to the dish. If it happens again I'm going to have to use a broom from the deck and get it from the top...

Back when I had Dish I had an ethernet cable run to all four boxes. When I switched to a DirecTV wholehome set up I of course didn't need it with the DECA system. But, I left the cables there just in case. Last week I was able to put them to good use again. Upgraded 3 of our TV's, and while...

When my son lived in Waterloo Iowa, and had Mediacom, he could watch the Cards because got FSM, but in my little town 40 miles away, no sports networks at all. Even with Dish or Directv I have to get the sports pack, because my zip code includes the corners of four different counties. Which RSN...

But in my community I wouldn't get FSM on Mediacom. No sports networks.

That works fine as long as you don't want to watch games live. I'm in Iowa, and Minnesota, Chicago, St. Louis, and Kansas City all claim that I am in their market, so all games are blacked out until they are over. I pay for the audio portion every year, so I can listen to games while I'm at work...

I got $20 off for 24 months, an HR44, 2 wireless clients, I'm keeping my HR24, and all the set up fees were waived.
