Okay...a new OSD was downloaded and the resolution issue has been addressed. I am just curious why it took so long for the box to receive the OSD update. (6 hours after it was added) Picture quality: Significant downgrade on locals AND national HD channels (this is very disappointing) Speed...

Okay...I just had Direct installed today and have the HR34/HR25.... Can somebody please assist me in improving or explain to me why the picture is of such poor quality compared to my Dish 722 that is connected to the same Sammy Plasma? I was expecting a slower guide CHECK I was NOT expecting...

Do you think I can get them to give me an AM21 OTA tuner or do people have to buy those themselves?

Just placed an order for service and will have the install next Tuesday morning. I asked for an HR34/HR24 and a HD receiver. Is this their top-o-da-line equipment these days? They also said I could receive a $100.00 credit and someone else would also receive if I got there account...

Is there a way during setup that prevents a HDSTB from accessing the content on the HR34/24 MRV setup? The CSR was angry with me because she couldn't run my credit due to my security lock and began accusing me of hiding something. Then went into how I SHOULD have to pay all the fee's for...

So if I add the HR34 dvr and the HR24 DVR they will be able to share content (see each other recording) If I add the directivo it will work but will not be able to share content with the other two DVR's. Is this correct?

If you have the HR34 DVR and a HR24 DVR those two device will count as 7 tuners and will be able to share content between them. If you add the Directivo it will not be able to share (that I get) but can it still be added?

Thank you for the feedback...The costco deal looks to be the best out there would you all agree? Will they give me an AM21 or will I have to buy that separately? Do they charge later to add additional STB if I don't get them at sign up?

I am debating with adding a new Directv account OR a Hopper/Joey setup. I am leaning towards D* as this will allow me to get ST. My only concern is the stability of both company's hardware as they are both new. How stable is the HR34 and would you recommend it? (as well as over a Hopper/joey...

I many not be understanding the OP issue because the simple fix with the VIP DVR's is to simply pad your timer. This way it forces the next recording to any other available tuner or did I misunderstand?

Exactly...

This does the trick and answer my Part 1: SatBeams - Home

Seeing that I don't have Direct yet I can verify. :-( Can anyone who has direct in the Bay Area check for me please? Any suggestion on Part two of my question?

Part 1 I want to "move" to the Fresno DMA for the up coming NFL season. Does that DMA's spot beam cover/reach San Jose? ---- Part 2 Assuming it does cover/reach, how does one go about choosing the best address to move to? Thanks -

I brought up the subject of moving so I could get my local NFL team as they are always blacked out locally as well as watch other out of market games. I don't care about any other programing from Direct other than ST. That is all I will use them for. From the sound of it though what I want...

Does NFL ST come on spot beams? What steps should I take to achieve what I am after? Keep in mind I dont want to be under contract and I do not care about any other programing Direct offers. Suggestion asked for....

So based on the information provided here I would need to do the following to get NFL ST w/the least expensive programing package AND get my local team which is always blacked out: 1. Acquire and install my own equipment 2. Sign up for the JadeWorld package 3. Change my service address to a...

No, not a Direct sub but I would imagine they would want to send out a tech to verify my claim wouldn't they or is Direct more interested in selling ST packages?

Who is eligible to purchase NFL SUNDAY TICKET™ To-Go? NFL SUNDAY TICKET™ To-Go is available to anyone who cannot get DIRECTV service at their residence. I dont have any LOS issues or I would be all over that offer

Bingo....my local team gets blacked out. So then I can acquire and install all my own equipment, and then they will sell me ST w/o a package?

1. Will Direct sell me NFL ST without a programing package? 2. If not what is the least expensive programing I need to get to have NFL ST? 3. How does one "move" so as to get NFL ST game that would still be blacked-out in ones local market?

where is the latest national HD channel comparison chart between Direct and Dish...I think about switching but certain channels in HD are must haves for me like BBC.

Reg ticket prices here in calif are $10.00-15.00 per person the latter being for 3D. What was that you saw, a matinee?

I don't think its a niche and nor is it that small. I know people on this site dont speak highly of PPV but if it was not a revenue generator the bandwidth would be used for something else.

$16.00 for tickets? they are 20.00 for two here is calif. That is why this service doesn't look so bad. Magnet Films already does this with their films on XBL...they put them up even before they are out in theaters.
