Other services like Netflix, Prime Video, and YouTube TV deal with this issue fine. YouTube TV even gives you a family sharing option.

I would double check the skew setting (tilt) for your longitude and latitude from another source then go through the entire alignment again. Directv might be using your home zip code for the settings.

I am in rural Colorado. If I could get Starlink with unlimited data I would dump DirecTV tomorrow and replace it with YouTube TV. It just will not work over Hughes net.

Sounds like one or more of your connectors is bad. Disconnect the coax at the dish and the receiver and measure the resistance from the center conductor to shield. It should be infinite. Then short one end with a clip lead or something like that. Check the same reading at the other end. It...

I finally got a CSR to tell me I am eligible for an equipment upgrade after 8/31. At least I know when I can do 4K now.

I called twice with no luck getting them to waive the up front charge. I was able to get an additional discount for 12 months. The experience was terrible. The first CSR was in the Philippines. She couldn’t log into her computer. She was working from home because of the virus. I could barely...

It’s DirecTV. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

OK, I see, there is a $99 equipment charge. I will call them tomorrow and see if I can sweet talk them out of that. What I really want to do is get a C61K 4K mini and move the wireless mini to a third TV. I finally have run a coax to my 4K TV so I can install a 4K mini. I will see if they will...

Well that makes sense. Thank you all for the replies.

So there's no reason at all not to get one from DTV?

I have a HR54 Genie with a WVB and one C61W wirelss mini that I pay DirecTV $7.00 per month to rent. I want to add a second client. If I buy my own client is there a monthly cost with DTV? I see you can buy C41w's on eBay for fairly low prices. With they work with the HR54? Thanks for any replies.

No, I am talking about streaming content on the DirecTV web page with the play on computer option. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I think it might be a server or bandwidth issue. I have noticed at times the PQ is OK but in the evenings especially it seems to deteriorate badly.

I have used it a few times in the past to watch on my phone or tablet when I was outside at home or out of town in a motel and wanted to watch something the motel system didn't carry. It was OK for that. But I would agree it's not a good option.

Yes, I should have been more specific. I am using a PC, Windows and watching on the Directv website in Firefox. I believe the site uses Adobe Flash Player, which Firefox hates. I looked around for a setting for resolutions but the only choice seems to be Closed Caption. Sent from my iPad...

I having been moving my DirecTV receivers back and forth from our house in Colorado Springs to a place in the mountains for a couple of years. I bought a dish, LNB and SWM so I could take my receivers with me to the second home. We are selling our main home so last week I left the receivers at...

It just cleared up like someone flipped a switch. I had checked my spot beam signals and they were fine. Picture is OK now.

It is now unwatchable.

Is anyone else seeing problems on CBS signal with the SEC game? My CBS local is Colorado Springs. It started about 30 minutes ago. I have not seen it on any other channel so far.

Thanks for the useful information you've provided. I would imagine that there are procedures that have to be followed also. You can't just jump in and start trying random things on a system that affects millions of viewers. There is always the possibility of breaking it worse than it already is.

Looks like the SD versions are OK. It took me a while to figure out where to unhide those. In screwing around I figured out I had the ACC Network now here in Colorado. I wonder when they added that?

About an hour ago I began to notice pixelation and dropouts on all the ESPN channels and several others. The local (Colorado Springs) channels are fine. I checked my satellite signal meter and they all seem normal. I checked the DirecTV technical forum and a number of people from all over the US...

That's interesting considering that viewership for the Big 4 networks has been in a steady decline this decade and no end is in sight. I guess they think they can squeeze the carriers indirectly through the local affiliates to make up for lost revenue. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I know the commercials have weasel words like "the first step on the road to 5G". However, my damn phone says "5GE" not "LTE-A", which is what it really is. The entire campaign is nothing but deception on a grand scale.
