    DirecTV Intro price rockets up $25, or 71%

    Exactly why my we will remain cord cutters. We are watching everything we want with an antenna and a streaming service. $20. No way DirecAT&T could compete, especially with this type of stuff. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Anybody else keep getting locked out of your ATT account?

    I can't even log into my account. It says above you have to access your account on the att.com site. If I go to that site, I get a message that says if I am trying to access a DirecTV account to use directv.com, but, that site just sits forever trying to log in but never does. It simply will...

    Ota channels now in guide

    Assume you mean sub-channels? I have my guide set to "Channels I get" and there are STILL channels in the guide that I do **not** GET. I cannot figure out why these show up. It can be irritating too!

    Where does guide data come from?

    I don't think that's possible anymore. It appears to be just a catalog listing. It does not even show specifics of each item, just the name and that it was deleted and I think it says which "room" deleted it. It does not, however, specify if it was deleted automatically or after being watched.

    Where does guide data come from?

    I agree with that which is why we have it set to "all episodes" but this can get you in trouble too if you don't have a high enough episode count set on your "season pass". Some things we have set to 5 episodes some we have set to 10 others all. But, if I'm not thinking about it, and I have had...

    Where does guide data come from?

    The "First Air Date" is almost always wrong, at least for what we are watching. For example, tonight we just deleted about 8 Season 2 of Alaskan Bush People. S8 E2 then S8 E7 recorded back to back. What happened to E3 - E6? And the Season 2 episodes all had 9/30/2018 as the "First Air Date" so...

    Where does guide data come from?

    Thanks all. Its obvious things are wrong. Makes it impossible to use settings on the DVR such as telling it not to record repeats. Sometimes, on some shows, every showing is a "first run" even if it's been on many times before.

    Where does guide data come from?

    My wife is a lover of Life Below Zero. It seems the listings are all wonky and I'm curious where DTV gets their data from. I looked at TV Guide and they have the same data so I'm wondering where they problem might be coming from. According to IMDB: S11 E01 · Changing of the Guard S11 E02 · End...

    No signal Tuner 2 HR23 700

    I found one as referenced on eBay for a great price and finally got around to installing it today. All 3 of my receivers are seeing 13 channels on the LNB and I'll assume that means 13 tuners. At any rate, all 3 receivers have all the tuners available they should have. Thanks for helping me...

    No signal Tuner 2 HR23 700

    IRD #1: HR34-700 IRD #2: HR24-500 IRD #3: HR23-700 We went through several changes at the old house from SD to Tivo's to HD then Genie. At one time we had some of each and with a new dish install they used a dish with 4 cables to a big multi-switch. A lot of this was pre-SWM days when every...

    No signal Tuner 2 HR23 700

    Thanks for the input. I do not see the need to move past 9, at least not at the moment. I think that will solve my problem. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    No signal Tuner 2 HR23 700

    This: DIRECTV Ultra HD 4K Digital Reverse Band 3 LNB (3D2RBLNB) from Solid Signal Looks like it is a direct "bolt on" replacement for what I currently have, which is a SL3 LNB SWM. Do I read that correctly? It would simply mount in place of what I have with no "repeaking" necessary?

    No signal Tuner 2 HR23 700

    So this is the correct answer. :( I spent some time today swapping positions of my HR24-500 from the master bedroom to the TV room where this receiver was. Both IRD's work independently in either location so I now know it is not a splitter/cable/DECA problem (though I didn't suspect the DECA...

    No signal Tuner 2 HR23 700

    I actually had it connected both ways. With and without the DECA. The TO DISH from the DECA is on the coax leading to the wall, the short coax lead out of the DECA is on Input 1 on the IRD and the short Ethernet cable is plugged into the port on the IRD. Green lights on the DECA. Satellite...

    No signal Tuner 2 HR23 700

    I have a currently working installation where I've been using 2 of my 3 receivers. This is a SWM system with a single wire coming from the dish to a 4-way splitter. The power port goes first to a power inserter then to our 1st receiver. The 2nd port to the 2nd and now the 3rd to the 3rd...

    Repeating "bong" sound

    I have been having a relatively new issue lately with our Genie HR34-700 unit. This "bong" sound comes especially when deleting shows after watching them when "confirming" the deletion. I have tried to make certain that extra presses of the remote are not happening but this "bong" will happen...

    Genie Issues - Hard Drive Test?

    My Genie seems to be giving me some issues. I've had about 3 different shows just not play when we've tried to watch them. It appears as if the entire episode was recorded, it will actually start and then freeze. It either happens right at the beginning of the episode or it might play for some...

    New House SL3 SWM Dish - Genie 775

    I moved the cable down to port 3 and power cycled the Genie. It automatically found the new dish setup, then got a 771 error, but kept going on the setup process and is now working properly with no errors. The signal levels look good. I only have 1 more receiver and there is a terminator on...

    New House SL3 SWM Dish - Genie 775

    What would be the best way to test? This is a straight cable run from the 4 way DirecTv splitter, leg 2 straight up to the HR34. Not that far of a run either. Only 2 connectors, brand new cable, RG6. I used to install HSD internet cable so I am pretty good with making terminations. I have good...

    New House SL3 SWM Dish - Genie 775

    Hello, I am finally getting around to running some of the other lines I need for my home. I have my HR24-500 hooked up with the power inserter on the 4 way splitter on leg 1 and it automatically detected the new dish setup. I had originally had my HR23-700 in the same position but we had more...

    Moving to new home - installation questions - existing dish

    So, it's actually very likely we had a different arrangement back then. I actually remember now doing a dish swap and such when we got a new TV that was HD and switched a few receivers out. Why they put such a big SWiM switch in at that time I do not remember, although it seems like at least...

    Independent tech/installer needed for Dish Alignment in Orlando

    I have always wished for some sort of "magic glasses' though I know they do not exist, that would somehow "light or paint" the dish in red or something when you were aimed spot on, or something similar to give you a pointer to shoot for so to speak. Never possible I know, but always something...

    Moving to new home - installation questions - existing dish

    Actually, we had 2 SD-DVR80's and possibly an R10. I know it was something of that nature. We may have had 1 standard non-DVR receiver in the mix too.

    Moving to new home - installation questions - existing dish

    I now have 3. At the time the SWiM 16 as I know it now was installed, we had 3 TiVo type DVR's that required 2 inputs per receiver. That's how they installed it.

    Moving to new home - installation questions - existing dish

    Ok. I had one of these at the last house. Only difference was it was connected to a really big switch. The receivers were connected to 2 splitters off this switch.
