    DirecTV news from CEDIA

    Greetings from Denver. Today I visited the DirecTV booth right away. They were demonstrating their new HR21P professional DVR. First off, the picture posted about 1080p output is FALSE!! Attached is a picture of the actual working unit, if you zoom in it clearly shows 1080i as the maximum...

    National HD Channel Roll-Out Plans

    Maybe you should put an asteriks after that. I left DirecTV over a year ago not only for more HD on Dish, but because of DirecTV's horrible incarnation of NHLCI. On Dish I can watch my team's home feed because Dish broadcasts BOTH teams feeds. DirecTV will show only one. Usually the home...

    When we moved into our current house the HOA freaked out about the Dish and OTA Antenna. They threated me etc and I responded "If you have what it takes to overturn an act of congress, signed into law by the President of the United States, and adminintered by the FCC (while handing them the...

    Free HR20 from DTV after bad HR10-250? Any gotchas?

    Oh my gosh! They Lied?! Gee, that never happens with DishonesTV! !sadroll I think there is an example of them telling the truth circa 1995. Every time I see a post about DirecTV with a member of our forum believing a Direc CSR I just wait a couple of days to see the 100% "Oh my gosh! DirecTV...

    RSN's HD no longer to be spot beamed ?

    DirecTV's uplink center is staffed with a bunch of Homer Simpsons. There is nothing consistent with NHL CI on DirecTV.

    New Names & Price's for DirecTv Packages

    What the heck is the problem with DirecTV and Dish? They both rename and regroup channel lineups doing their best to confuse their customers and prospective customers. Oh wait, I know where they got it, from Intel! Intel came up with a jive CPU name game that gives you no indications of...

    What's with D*

    One more time. Upgrades were delayed until at least January do that DirecTV's bottom line would look more valuable so that the sale to Liberty and Mallone could go thru without a tax liability, even swap. In central Ohio the HSP has a backlog ov over 1000 upgrades, not to mention new installs...

    Dish roof install - winter?

    For the life of me I NEVER understood why anyone wants the dish on their roof north of Tennessee, or anywhere else. The satellites are about 22,300 miles above the equater, what the heck difference does 30 feet make? I've had customers insist that "you get better reception when it's mounted...

    They're going to have to better than this.

    Just received an e-mail from DirecTV wanting me back. Monthly bill north of $120, 5 stars customer rating, 4 HD receivers, 3 sd receivers, 6 yr HD sub. Maybe when Liberty takes over they will re-examine their customer offers. No flaming, just laughing at offering me an "upgrade" to a...
