    DIRECTV 3D

    I agree. Call me old school but I am just not interested in 3D at this time. To be honest, the only 3D I have seen is Pixar's Up in 3D when it first came out.

    Thoughts on coming from the HR-20 to the HR-23

    I keep having to reset my HR-20 every time I forget to turn it on last when I power everything up in HT system. I have an Emotiva UMC-1 prepro and I think it is a handshaking issue with the hdmi connection. If I turn on the prepro first then I do not have a problem but if I forget and turn on...

    Searching for signal on satellite in 2 (771)

    I checked and I do have sl5. Tech support had me remove the bbc's and I could not get a signal on any HD channels so they had me put them back on. My signal levels are very low on 99 and 103. They said I probably need to have the dish realigned. Thanks for your input. I have not checked the...

    Can't get HDNM or Universal HD

    Thanks for the information. The signal levels are all below 60 on 99 sat. Even with that, HDNM and Universal HD still come in ok sometimes. I may just go ahead and have the dish realigned. Thanks again.

    Can't get HDNM or Universal HD

    Yes, I have the HD Extra Pack. I was getting these channels previously. Tech support tried to help but determined that I need a tech to come out either put a new LNB in or realign the dish. Thanks for all your input. Matt

    Searching for signal on satellite in 2 (771)

    Please excuse my lack of knowledge on this but I don't know if I have a sl3 or sl5. I believe I do have the bbands if what you are talking about are the little rectangular boxes leading into the receiver. Tech support tried to help and determined that I need a tech to come out. They thing I need...

    Can't get HDNM or Universal HD

    I am getting most HD channels in the 200's but I am not getting Universal HD which is 259. It seems to be sats 99 and 103 have little or no signal. What is BBC? If you are talking about the little rectangle shaped boxes that are going into the receiver then yes I have them. Tech support had me...

    Can't get HDNM or Universal HD

    I can no longer receive HDNet movies or Universal HD. Ever since they did away with the 70 something channel numbers for these, I can no longer get the new channels which are 259 and 552 I believe. I get the searching for signal. I called Directv and they said they would have to send someone...

    MLB...Looking forward to it!

    Just tuned in to the MLB Network channel on 213. I really like it and I look forward to taping Ken Burn's Baseball on Tuesday nights. I see where Victor Rojas is on the Hot Stove report. I hope he continues to do Texas Ranger's baseball on KRLD radio. Go Rangers!

    DirecTV testing out 1080p?

    Thanks elwaylite for the information. When you say your tv will accept it, do you mean that it will play in some form of 1080p? Mine will not.

    DirecTV testing out 1080p?

    I just found out that my tv will accept 1080p/60fps but not 24fps. Does this mean that I will not be able to view the downloaded movie in its native format(The Bucket List-1080p) from Directv? Thanks.

    DirecTV testing out 1080p?

    I downloaded the movie The Bucket List from the 1080p VoD but it will not play. I am getting a message on my tv that says "Unsupported signal, check your device output." My Sony 60A2000 does support 1080p and I do have my HR20 set to native. Thanks for any help. By the way, it will play when I...

    Missing PBS local HD channel

    I like your avatar too. Yes I am hoping the Rangers can make a run of it in the AL West this year. Josh Hamilton is something else-very exciting to watch.

    Missing PBS local HD channel

    All of my locals showed up after my install this week except the HD version of my local PBS affiliate. The SD channel shows up in the channel listing but the HD one. Any help on what I can do? Thanks. Matt

    How to get an additional $240 off as a new DirecTV customer

    I did call DirecTV before and after the install to discuss the matter with them regarding the $23.00 off and they said they would refer the matter to resolution dept or something like that. They said it could take a week or so before I got an answer. I went online today and it shows the rebate...

    Installed yesterday-so far, so good

    I had my install yesterday and I am really glad I ended up with a tech who was very polite and professional. He drove his own truck and certainly knew what he was doing. I live in an apartment and he had me up and running in about an hour. He used a double bracket on the railing of my balcony...

    How to get an additional $240 off as a new DirecTV customer

    You really should not have to cancel your order to get the new pricing. I ordered 2 weeks ago when the new customer price was $18.00 a month off. I found out about the $23.00 off a few days ago so I called DirecTV and they told me I would be getting the new pricing since my install has not taken...
