    IHeart App Question

    She can't get it to do nothing. It is as if there is no internet connection. Pandora works just fine so not sure what is wrong. I'm about 50 miles from her so tinkering first hand is hard. The last time I had DirecTV was 7 years ago with an HR24 so lots have changed.

    IHeart App Question

    Thanks everyone. She tried everything still a no go. Not sure if it would help, but I suggested she call DirecTV tech support to see what they could do to help.

    IHeart App Question

    Hey guys I am asking this question for a friend of mine. She has an hr44, and is trying to use the iHeartRadio app on the genie. Is there a trick that needs to be done to make it work, or is there a glitch with the app itself. She has Windstream Internet with 12 Meg down so it should be plenty...

    Receiver question

    Thanks guys. For some viewers with limited sight it would be cool if you could have a sight impaired guide, but I know that is not the norm. When I had DirecTV about 5 years ago even with a 42 inch LCD I had issues with it. I'm very sight impaired so I just stuck to the channels I liked and had...

    What I found interesting about this outage was how quick our local Raycom station jump on it letting viewers know there was an outage . Posted Via The FREE SatelliteGuys Reader App!

    Pandora + DMX!

    Was playing around over at Dogstarradio.com looking at some of the Sirius playlist when a very interesting ad popped up involving Pandora and DMX for businesses. DMX who owns the name SonicTap for D* is selling Pardora to businesses. Now DirecTV has Pandora as an option if you are connected to...

    Phantom Recordings!!!

    Hey guys just a quick question that maybe you can help me with... Today our HR24 stated doing something odd. It would start recording events yet nothing was recording if that makes sense.

    for those that have recently come from dish

    I made the switch in Oct myself. When we switched the HD pic was much better then what E* had. The D* SD pic seems a little softer then what E* had, but since about 90% of our viewing is HD it is not a biggie to me or my wife... I really liked my VIP RCVR from Dish, but quickly grew to love my...
