    Anyone in CT - Having issues with WTIC FOX61 in HD?

    Dec 14th Here is the email response I got back from them: We are in the process of moving facilities which is causing us not to be able to broadcast in HD. We are hoping to have HD programming back by December 14th. With technical issues that may arise, that date is subject to change...

    More Audio Sync Issues -- Need Help

    Not sure how old the cable is - might have even been supplied by DTV if I remember correctlty. Worth it to buy a new one and swap out.

    Audio

    With Directv - probably won't notice any difference. However - with a blu-ray source - it is night and day. You cannot push TrueHD Audio over optical - it doesn't have the bandwidth.

    More Audio Sync Issues -- Need Help

    I always have audio sync issues. Quite annoying! Some channels are worse then others. I have no sync issues while watching blu-rays. I also never had issues when I was with Comcrap. I am also using hdmi - never swapped out to test.

    XM Removing Some Channels from DirecTV

    That is correct. You just won't get both. You would either subscribe to the XM Everything or the Sirius Everything package.

    XM Removing Some Channels from DirecTV

    Yes - old news - you are correct. This stuff takes a while to complete. Just as of yesterday - a second democrat voted no for the merger. That leaves the tally at 2 (democrats) to 2(republicans). One final vote will be cast in the next week or so as a tiebreaker. The 5th vote is a...

    XM Removing Some Channels from DirecTV

    I think most of you are missing the boat on the merger. No channels are being removed on the sat side. If you look at the packages being offered - there are sirius and xm packages. Also - there are a la carte and sirius + some xm and vice versa. Again - nothing to do with DTV - just more of...

    How common is rain fade?

    I have never once lost my signal since I got DTV back in September. I always get people coming up to me with the - I don't want DTV because when it rains - you lose tv. Maybe true 10 years ago - but now more of a Comcast way of misleading people. My signals are in the mid to high 90's all...

    Magic-Raptors game on TNT HD

    I don't bother watching anything on TNT. Total waste of bandwidth! Even stretch-o-vision on some of the other HD channels schools the quality on TNT.

    HD Locals question

    It all depends. Are the other 2 channels available in HD - but just not to DTV? If that is the case (as it is with me) - you are pretty much sh*t out of luck. Some areas only have contracts to supply the SD feed to DTV - not the HD. Supply more information like zip code so others can see...

    Not sure what to say about that response - I was only kidding about the HD. Sounds like you have deeper issues.

    Satellite Launch

    The satellite has launched - why hasn't DTV added any new HD channels yet? I am cancelling my service.... j/k. I am waiting for those posts from the unhappy people. This is great news - I expect great things over the next couple of months!

    SD Picture Quality

    Travel Channel should be available in HD soon. Maybe March 30?? I catch a few episodes of the Andrew Zimmerman show and it looks fine. Nothing that makes me say wtf and shut it off. Same with Comedy Central. I do tend to watch those shows on my smaller 42 inch so it hides most of the SD...

    Remove PPV from HD guide

    I would have never figured that out in a million years! But yes - they need a software fix. Why should I waste time creating fav list when every other cable company offers this simple feature? They can even leave the PPV in (for marketing reasons) - it is the channels over 300 that should be...

    ESPN News HD

    The irony here - we get ESPN News in MPG4 and we still get kicked in the nuts with the lousy quality of ESPN in MPG2. At least the highlights will look good. As far as ESPN employees - that is a correct statement. I know many people that work there since I don't live too far away - and...

    SD Picture Quality

    I find the SD channels to be slightly inferior to Comcast. That being said - you are only asking since you are used to so little HD. Once you switch to DTV - you will be watching very little SD. With all they have to offer - I would say that 98% of what you most likely watch will have a HD...

    DirecTV chan. changes today

    Excuse the igonorance - but why can't they move those channels in the 70's (keep those MPG2) and also map them to something in the 200's as MPG4? Everyone is happy!

    Houston vs Denver ESPNHD

    ESPN on DTV is so bad I don't even bother turning it on anymore. The funny thing - when I had Comcast - that was my best channel.

    H21 Screen Goes Black, but is Recieving signal
