tnt-hd, no biggie for me, thus not that compelling of an argument

Eventually, depending on where you live, DirectTV will beam only MPEG 4 content from their Sats to your HD Receiver. That includes locals and HBO, and Discovery and anything that is HD that goes throught the Sats. So it's just not locals that will be MPEG4, it's any and all HD content Direct...

That's the part I don't know. I have know idea waht you will get. Especially if you are in a market that has not been converted to the new MPEG 4 format. You can only call them at this point.

I can answer 2 for you with some degree of being correct. Your HD receiver will replace any existing receiver you currently have connected to you HD TV. All other receivers will stay the same. The TiVo's will still work on your other sets, but a special HD Tivo would be needed to run on your...

Yeah, I really wasn't that impressed. Why are they gunning for a teenage market when most of us looking for HD Content are paying for the HD content and are in a cosumer market range that have some money to spend. Where the teenage crowd they are gunning for don't control my TV nor do they...

That's amazing. I got no hassle what so ever. The woman looked something up and I had it in about 2-3 minutes. I don't get it. Are you in the Phoenix proper, or in another town? Even if it's Tempe or Chandler or something.

I called D* directly, said I was having issues with getting the HD signal, I don't get it where I am at. I may get it if I move the Antennae, as it did help about a year ago. Then I asked if there was a way to get it on an alternative channel. She took a moment to look up my location etc...

Yeah, but if nobody is buying it..... aka Voom

where is the part about the HDTV battle being lost??? "Stricter credit requirements for new subscribers imposed in November are resulting in lower than expected subscriber net additions, especially from third-party dealers,” Stynopias said. Oh, I see the Dish part. Still, nothing is saying...

In the Awhautukee area, don't ask me to spell it correctly. Very close to the Antennnaes on South Mountain. They did not offer to install it and I already have the newest dish. I didn't even need a waiver, they just turned it on in a couple minutes. Maybe that's the waiver process? I...

Price I was just quoted a price for the new equipment you will need for this, and it's $99. They say you need a new dish, but I do have the Oval one already, is there some even newer?? They also said the box will not be a DVR and currect DVRs on the market will not work and they do not...

maybe if ESPN HD had more HD I would care about ESPN2 in HD

anything to fix the grain and compression on the current HD offerings

I might just cancel due to the shoddy performance and very grainy pictures. But, with a new HD MPEG4 unit, I guess I'll wait it out.

wireless the next question is how to stop people from riding on my WiFi

Well, I can't wait for a new HD box in a year or 2, MPEG4 and more locals and more HD. Worth the afternoon off from work.

calling card

Wow, that's just aweseome news. I'm so glad I left VOOM. Thought D* is this big huge coporation, they would be doing the right thing to help the early adopters convert to the new MPEG4 format. It's when early adoption finally pays off.

If anything the Illinois game should have been in HD last night. But it has not been that way the last 3 Super Tuesdays.

"It's called computer nerds " Script Kiddies. But it's kind of true with the D* site. I forgot both my username and password the other day, and what I thought was my usernames turned out not to be. So some person out there was getting E-Mails sent to them from D* with their password...

I have the HUGHES you mention and like it very much. at weaknees.com they also have a 70 TiVO, standalone, for $49 after rebate it does appear cheaper to get a whole new unit and the smaller unit in another room or e bay it

yeah, quite a few dropouts and some screen break ups

oh crap what is my Hughes model Number???? good news if I can upgrade, very good news

But even with the 3 heads, you still have to run another CoAx line right?

I have that model. So far I love it. Since it's a DirectTV/Tivo, and if you choose DirectTV at $4.95/month for your Recording Options and Season Pass etc, you will not get the update of folders and other features that Tivo themselves are offering. But, if you were to choose Tivo as your...
