    HS-17 question

    Thanks. I just wanted to make sure that it was available nationally. Thought it odd that they wouldn't even give me the option of swapping out to the HS-17. I'll have to give it another try in a couple of days. Got to love CSR roulette.

    HS-17 question

    Here's my current setup. I have a HR-54 on a 4K tv in my basement. I have a 1080p TV in my living room with a wireless mini. There is no cable up there in that room to connect a receiver, which is why I went with the wireless mini. I decided I wanted to see what it would cost to upgrade...

    Directv to shift away from Satellite?

    I live in rural America. I am one of the lucky ones who has "decent" internet. 20 mbps. We watch a lot of Netflix. Also tried Playstation Vue and it worked fine. Picture quality was excellent. I currently am a Directv subscriber. I would welcome the switch to Directv Now, but 2 things...

    New Guide UI now rolling out (plus HDR support!)

    I received 0x1001 the other night. So far I like it a lot. It’s not perfect but I’m a fan. It’s definitely not as bad as some have made it sound.

    Question on swapping to a wireless genie mini

    So I currently have a HR-54 in my basement and a wired genie mini in my living room. My wife wants to rearrange the furniture in our living room. Problem is, there's no coax where she wants to put the TV and no easy way to get it there either. So I'm looking into swapping our regular mini for...

    Just want to make sure I have this 4k stuff correct

    Got my OLED. It's AMAZING. Love the picture quality! It was good enough that even my wife went, "wow that looks good". And she never notices stuff like that. I've got a year left on my contract. Just going to stick it out for now and maybe do an upgrade after that. I don't see the point...

    Cancelled DTV over terrible customer service

    I too am not impressed with the customer service since ATT took over. Usually have to do several chats or phone calls and play CSR roulette before a person gets one that actually kind of knows what they're talking about. I love how cheap my tv service is being bundled with ATT wireless but I'm...

    Just want to make sure I have this 4k stuff correct

    If the content isn't that good I might just wait for now and let the TV upscale. Use my Fire TV and PS 4 Pro for 4k content. It will depend on how much Directv is going to charge me to change out receivers.

    Just want to make sure I have this 4k stuff correct

    Maybe mine already has the rb lnb since I have a HR 54. How do I tell?

    Just want to make sure I have this 4k stuff correct

    Ah. I always forget that it’s up to the TV manufacturers to do software updates for RVU, not Directv. I will just get the C61. And yes I’m very excited about my new TV. I have an OLED that’s only HDTV. And it’s amazing. I always said that I was going to save up so that when I made the jump...

    Just want to make sure I have this 4k stuff correct

    Should I request the reverse band lnb or will they just add it when they come to swap receivers? Also does anyone know if my TV is RVU capable? I looked on DirecTV's website and they list all the 2016 LG OLED models but not any of the 2017 models. I got a 65 inch B7 coming.

    Just want to make sure I have this 4k stuff correct

    So I just purchased a new LG OLED 4k TV. Should be here some time next week. I currently have a HR-54 in the room where my new 4k TV will go and a C51 on HDTV in another room. So to get live 4k tv I would have to move the HR-54 to the room with the HDTV and then either get the C51 swapped for...

    HS17-100 (For those wondering)

    That's kinda what I was figuring but a guy could hope. I assumed the only way the HS 17 would get a new UI would be to roll one out to all the receivers, not just the new one.

    HS17-100 (For those wondering)

    Will they release a new interface to go along with this receiver? Overall I have very few complaints other than the guide. I wish that it had more hours visible and channel logos also. Similar to the hopper guide.

    Is This Normal ...?

    Make sure to use a little tannerite with it for a little extra satisfaction.

    4K Available to More Customers TODAY

    I actually don't think the 4k deal is starting any faster or slower than HD did. I was one of the very early adopters for HD and I remember only having 5 channels with Directv when I did. One was a PPV channel and one was only part time HD for ESPN. And Dish had no HD at the time. I think...

    DIRECTV Will Raise Prices Next Month

    Will this apply to customers on the 2 year promo pricing as well? I just signed up a month ago and have the Xtra package all included for 70 a month for 2 years. So will my price stay at 70 or go up to 76?

    Question about DirecTV Now and existing DirecTV subscribers

    I too think that they will keep the products seperate. Its no different than Dish. Dish owns Sling, but you don't get Sling service if you subscribe to Dish. This will be no different.

    Setting up RVU in 4K

    No I don't think that they got rid of the Directv people. However, every time I tried to call in I got transferred from a Directv call center to an AT&T one. You can tell because of different voices, different hold music, ect. I don't know that actually talking to someone from Directv would...

    Setting up RVU in 4K

    Good idea. Now according to that list my tv isnt compatible. However it's listed on the rvu alliance website and it has the directv app on it.

    Setting up RVU in 4K

    Yeah good luck with customer service and RVU. I have a tv that is RVU ready as well. My install is Friday. I called in three different times to switch my order from Genie mini to RVU client. Was told all three times that there's no such thing as RVU and Directv Ready and the only way to get...

    HR-44 3D trouble

    I am using the same hdmi cables. I will try resetting the box tonight. If that doesn't work I'll try bypassing the receiver. I will let you know. Thanks

    HR-44 3D trouble

    I can't seem to make 3D work on my new HR-44. My current setup. HR-44 is attached to an onkyo tx-sr608. Then the onkyo is attached to a Panasonic P60GT30. My PS3 will do 3D just fine and when I had an HR-24 connected that worked as well. But the HR-44 won't. It keeps giving me a message...

    How long after ordering before install?

    No it's not. However. Rural South Dakota. 1 tech for a very large area I guess.
