    Remote lag

    Switched from Dish about one month ago and the Genie remote lag is already getting on my nerves. Sometimes I have to press a button multiple times just to get it to display something. Disabled scroll effects but it is still slow. Not even talking about clients, these are totally unacceptable...

    Well, I'm switching to D*

    Well I am thinking about switching too. Can an external USB hard drive be added to Genie to expand storage capacity? Can I watch live TV over the Internet with Genie?

    Sports pack, OTA, whole house DVR

    Thinking about switching to Directv and I have few questions: 1. Can sports pack be added to any package? On their web site I picked choice extra and added sports pack but then I was automatically upgraded to premier package, don't know why. I don't want premier package. 2. Does their hd dvr...

    Signed up for Dtv yesterday, canceled today :(

    If your homework was done fairly then you'd also include that I was willing to pay $100 for second HD DVR or $50-60 for SD DVR. Neither was an option when I talked to them. Instead, they said I'll get it for free after three months. Regardless of how much I was willing or should pay, the two...

    Signed up for Dtv yesterday, canceled today :(

    1. I own a house but I paid 0 dollars upfront fee. And I can still sell it whenever I want. :D 2. I get paid for using the Internet which is free. I am in my office now. :up I am not against Directv. I'm just saying throw away 200 dollars for somehting everyone can get for free elsewhere?

    Signed up for Dtv yesterday, canceled today :(

    Yeah. Why would I pay 199 for somehting that will NEVER be mine and then pay 5-6 bucks lease fee for many years to come? I'd say that Directv wants my money for nothing. If I have to pay 200 bucks for it then I want to be able to sell it whenever I want.

    Signed up for Dtv yesterday, canceled today :(

    Yesterday I called Dtv and signed up for one free HD DVR + one free SD receiver for my second TV AND a promise that after three months I can get another free HD DVR (or any other advanced receiver) for my second TV. Good deal but I was suspicious about the second free HD DVR so I called this...

    Signed up today, few questions

    I am leaving Dish and going to Directv. I've already signed up and scheduled the installation for next week. However, CRS couldn't answer or partially answered some questions so I'd like to hear from you guys: 1. Does Directv HD DVR has built in an HD OTA tuner? 2. Since I have two HD TVs...

    Remote question

    We have four receivers stocked on the top of each other in data room. Please don't ask me why - it's a school system, you know :). One receiver is R15 DVR and the remaining three are D11. The problem is, when we want to change channel on one receiver with its remote, it changes channels on all...

    HD DVR and two HD TVs

    I'm considering to make a switch to D* and I'd like to the following: 1. Can Directv HD DVR provide RF output for second TV like VIP 622 does? 2. If not, then what are the fees for two TVs (both HD)? 3. Do I get second HD receiver free as new customer? (I assume I have to pay for HD DVR)...

    Breaking: DirecTV to Launch 2 HD Satellites

    What a breaking BS! Someone please correct me if I am wrong: I MAY get local HD channels in 2005 when they launch first two satellites but I'll get locals in HD for sure sometime in 2007 when they launch few more satellites. WTF, I'm getting all my locals in HD with free OTA installed by...
