    ESPNU moving to Choice 7/1 & HD coming, ESPN Classic moving to sports pack.

    Damn, looks like no provider here in Atlanta is going to have ESPNU HD in time for football season...

    Charter Sueing Directv in Ad claims

    I remember how many of my friends in college had Charter and how often their internet went out, how clunky the boxes were, etc. Can't understand why anyone would choose them if they have LOS for satellite and DSL available for internet...

    Hoping Someone Can Help

    I used to have this problem a lot, but with the past couple of software updates I haven't. Some sort of bug in the firmware.

    Comedy Central HD Launched / New Sportsman Channel

    Great, now just add ESPNU HD, Travel HD and AMC HD and we'll be getting somewhere :)

    Local Channels Launched in select markets today

    I'd be interested to know how they're prioritizing the PBS adds, I would think that Atlanta would be a big enough market to be included in one of the two rounds so far. Comcast has WGTV in HD, and WPBA is also available in HD OTA, so maybe they're just still trying to sort out which one they'll...

    How much is included in basic installation?

    Hey all, While I've had DirecTV for almost a year now, my parents are thinking about getting it and they had a couple of questions about the installation process that I couldn't answer since I'm in an apartment. They have very haphazard cable wiring throughout their house, I doubt there's much...

    XM on DirecTV - Changes & Some new (non-xm) music

    Whoo! I was getting tired of all the censoring that XM does, really messes up 90s alternative ;) I noticed that the Sirius tuner in my car was updating this morning but I only noticed one XM channel when I flipped through, I don't really want any of em anyway :)

    Fox News HD - DirecTV thank you thread

    Took 'em long enough :). I'm happy to have this to watch on election night though!

    DirecTV HR2x Mass Lockups overnight 10/6

    Same problem here. Took it about 5 minutes between plugging the power back in and the lights coming on/startup screen coming up...

    Weather Channel Local Content Feedback

    Generally just make the presentation look more like what cable has (unfortunately I don't have Comcast here to take screenshots for comparison, but I assume the layout is pretty much identical nationwide at least for locales using the newest Weatherstar - better graphics, more information, and...

    Weather Channel: Locals on the 8's

    This is definitely a step in the right direction, although until they can get it to do everything that cable can that will remain a point in cable's favor. I realize they've had 20+ years to get that to where it is, but it took DirecTV over 10 to get this far and it's not 10 years worth of...

    CBS College Sports

    Unfortunately I just checked and it's back to stretching. Come on CBS!

    CSS on DTV

    Nope, cable exclusive unfortunately.

    CBS College Sports

    I'd just appreciate it if they'd stop doing that nasty stretchovision... I can't stand to watch anything on there right now!

    ESPNU off of the Sports Tier?

    The Raycom games will be HD this year. The most concerning part of this to me is that games will also be on ESPN Regional, and CSS is specifically mentioned as an affiliate for that. D* is going to have to hurry up and add CSS (and probably CST as well)...

    RETRO TELEVSION NETWORK

    Comcast in Atlanta has added the subchannel feed to the digital cable tier, not sure if other markets have the same thing...

    RSN Question

    College sports are for the most part not blacked out. There are some exceptions but I'd say you'll get 90% or better.

    One more day to go

    I noticed some sync issues on SportSouth HD, but I'm excited to have my RSNs available full time! Now it's time to catch up to the various other companies with Fox News and AMC, and I'd like to go ahead and see ESPNU HD so I don't get nervous as we approach the end of the month :)

    multiple boxes in different homes

    That is the answer to your question. You can't get locals from two places on the same account.

    ESPN Game Plan HD

    Every Raycom game is supposed to be in HD, I guess we'll see in a few weeks though :) All I know is my local affiliates haven't had any trouble passing their HD broadcasts in the past, so I'm looking forward to it!

    ESPN Game Plan HD

    I expect this means the ABC regional games will be HD on Gameplan but I've seen nothing to indicate the ESPN+ or any of the locally produced games will be HD.

    Well The 99 Retrans issue early

    The X-Games looked pretty good on ESPN last night, although I REALLY noticed the improvement on some of the HD commercials :). Saw a few glitches, but for the most part I'm very happy! The one thing I still don't understand about ESPN HD is how they can't do the program alert without taking the...

    Sports Pack/RSN Question

    Something to point out, a lot of the ACC and SEC (and I've even seen this with some Big 12 sports) football and basketball do get blacked out if you're out of region. A big example of this would be SEC basketball on FSN South - being in Georgia I can't confirm this but my understanding was this...

    Will DirecTV ever add Cox Sports Television?

    Well with college football right around the corner there are some CSS and CST exclusive games that could be interesting... come on D*!

    DirecTV's site sucks!

    I've had the website problem as well... for some reason when I'm on certain ISPs it just doesn't work. When it is working though, it's leaps and bounds ahead of Comcast's site!
