If I don’t put HDMI in the wall, how am I going to deliver the A/V signal to my display?

Why two cables?

I’m a longtime DirecTV customer whose account is currently in a suspended status while we are renting a townhouse waiting for our new construction house to be completed in December. Just before they hang the drywall, I plan to go in and run Cat6 cable, HDMI, speaker wire, etc., and thought it...

I've got TVersity installed, but I'm still unable to get .mov files from my digicam to play on my R22 via Media Share. I can play .AVI files no problem - however there is a 5 second lag between the time I hear the movie playing and when I see the actual video on screen. I get a gray screen with...

I just took advantage of DirecTV's free HD upgrade offer today. They replaced my old HD receiver with an H23 in our kids' playroom (we don't subscribe to HD yet - I was just taking advantage of the offer to get the upgraded receiver). However, after the installer installed the new Slimline 3...

I just hooked up a DirecTV H10 receiver that I recently purchased on eBay (it came with an access card). Seller has 100% feedback rating in case it matters. Before hooking up the receiver I did pull out the seller's access card and replaced it with one of mine from an older receiver I no...

Well, I just found this, and it appears to have resolved my issues: 1. Unplug your Tivo and then plug it back in 2. While it is powering up press and hold the pause button on your remote keeping the remote pointed at your Tivo. The front panel lights will turn off and then the orange light...

A new what? A new SD-DVR40?

Can someone point me to a walk-thru on how to replace the hard drive in this thing? I'd need to know what kind of drive to get, and exactly how to do it. Thanks!

I've had DirecTV + a Hughes SD-DVR40 DirecTivo for a few years now. Lately, whenever I try to access menus via the Tivo button, it takes a several seconds before the menu appears, and then any actions (up,down,enter,etc.) either take several minutes each, or it will just perform one action, then...

Do you have to create a new season pass for the same program each season? For instance, I currently have a season pass set up for House, which I set up at the beginning of last season. The new season is about to begin. Do I need to delete the current season pass and create a new one? FYI, I...

So, why would a new wall fish to all rooms be extra if that's what I currently have?

Okay, I will be moving about 60 miles at the end of the month. I am currently a DirecTV subscriber using 3 receivers in 3 different rooms. The main room/receiver is a dual-tuner SD DirecTivo. I’m not exactly sure which dishes I’m using (I’m writing this on the spur of the moment), but there...

I've been using a wireless jack with a DirecTivo for a year now with no problems.

You do NOT need a phone line at any point in the setup or operation of the DirecTivos, aside from ordering pay-per-view via the remote.

Any way to see what's on next on a DirecTivo (without opening the guide) like you can on the DishPVRs?

I just made the switch from Dish to DirecTV and the SD-DVR40 Tivo. Why no power button on the remote? Am I supposed to leave this thing on 24/7? Oh, and do the Tivos have any sort of 30-sec. jump forward or back feature like the Dish PVRs?

By the way, this is the monitor I have coming: http://www1.us.dell.com/content/products/productdetails.aspx/lcd_w1700?c=us&cs=19&l=en&s=dhs

I guess I do want it going directly to my monitor. But can I have both my DirecTV receiver and my computer hooked up simultaneously, and then switch between them?

What do I need in order to watch DirecTV on my PC’s monitor? What about HD-DirecTV? I have a widescreen HD-ready monitor.

I just bought a new house and had DirecTV installed (new customer). The previous owners already had a Phase III dish on the roof, so I just needed an additional wire run to my 2-tuner Tivo. The other 2 receivers went in rooms that already had jacks. The cable that was already in place in the...

I just had DirecTV installed 30 minutes ago -- first timer, switched from Dish Net. Got the SD-DVR40 DVR and 2 additional receivers. I am not in an area that qualifies for locals, but I do have a designated "physical" address that I used for Dish Net that does qualify. How soon can I call up...
