the importance of 4dtv maps

so i decided to cable up my 905 thats been out of the stream for a while. it appears that the w5 dmx channels are still alive and yummy. i guess its a lesson to be learned. funny moto didnt include the demap code in the dmx mux itself. im still rockin. good thing this canuck has 3 4d units. so raise your glasses and salute the sat brotherhood (if you indeed belong).

I asked the question for Mike about the Generics. Maybe by December there may be a ray of light. Right now I won't do a MR to get programming. I have only a 922 and I do enjoy the generic channels. I don't think some understand the importance of the maps. If you do a MR you will get about 18 satellites with only ch 1-24 analog on it. So it is useless for anything DC related ITC. Now for stand alone 410 action from a 922 it would be fine. But the hobbyist fun is totally gone. I really don't think it would be too big of a deal to add our current maps to the HITS data stream once W5 is defunct. One can only hope they try. This is why I asked the question since the word has to go up the ladder to the Comcast SAC and see if they will do it. Better to ask than not. I really think they will loose subscribers if they don't. I know of 2 people already that won't sub unless we get generics. I think there's a whole bunch more out there. Comcast it's your call. Don't phase me at the moment anyway since I'm still married to Direct. But I would like to get some W5 programming if things go right.

I also heard about NPS saying the 4dtv data stream is dead now. What a bunch of a..holes. NPS needs to be penalized for what they are pulling.

well then i think youd be part of the problem and not the solution. you cannot think you would be breathing new life into a dying service by with holding your subscription. i have 3 4d units. all have a purpose. one i bought for subbing. one i bought for dmx in the garage. and one i have for spare. with holding your money is only going to make the opportunity to sub die even faster. i was happy with a choice. i would even pay more for a channel if i only had to buy one channel. with all the talk about choice and whatnot its funny how the mass starts jumping overboard when there ideal situation isnt met. if we all subbed then we would have clout when we wanted changes. alone we are weak. together we are strong. for all of you whiners.... buy a channel once in awhile and the service will meet the demand. for me... im still extremely happy i kept a reciever with maps to score some music. thats what this post was about.

I understand your point, but it's not gonna change my needs. I only have 2 4D units, a 922 & a 920. The 920 has a dead battery & corrupt ID, so it's useless.

The 922 moves the dish & selects polarity for my HTPC. I'm definitely not giving up my 922 to W5 if we're gonna lose the maps. Frankly, I watch much more FTA on the HTPC than I ever watch on the sub. I don't see that makes me a "problem", just an end user with a specific need.

I really don't even care that much about the generics. I have commercial receivers on the way to take care of that.

If the W5 thing doesn't fill my need... then why do I need them? If maps end up being part of the deal, then I'm in. Otherwise, I simply can't let my 922 be rendered useless for what I use it for the most.

If I end up trying the 4play BDM thing, I'll probably test it out on the old 920. But that's a different subject.

I don't think there is much use for making maps because I estimate that regular DC II will be gone in the near future. With the bandwidth savings offered by newer technology- I would say if digicipher even survives in the headend makers it will all be combo mode an 8psk

The demise of consumer mode DCII probably won't be all that fast, cable companies use those channels too. Just look how long it's taking ESPN to convert to digital & shut off their analogs.

well truckracer i would have to disagree. im not super tech smart. i dont care about how signals are modulated and sent to me. all i know is end results. in respect to quality, there is no replacement for dc2. of course ive taken care not to corrupt my 905's maps. w5 dmx lives. in srl's new 410 packages you can also take notice that w5 dmx music channels are still mapped in packages. i foresee a future here for tunes. they differ from the dmx mux @ 91w. and their quality is far superior on my superior audio / htpc equipment. hint : the dsr-630 shaw reciever has appeared officially. take note of its very similar appearance to a fta stb.

What some are failing to realize is that this is not just about Generic mappings but what happens if you have to do a Master Reset after 12/31. You will have only a few outdated satellites not enough to even cover the N/A arc that will allow you to keep using the receiver as a dish moving receiver for a slaved FTA receiver.

This is what we get for allowing someone else to take control over our receivers that we paid for.

If anything can come of this even if it means being able to keep what is in the receiver right now it would be a great benefit.

As for DCII, well I gave up on DCII, I have been too busy with my other satellite surfing receivers to even watch 10 minutes of anything in DCII.
(Never thought it would come to that but it is what it is!)

New Apple TV 4K released, plus other Apple Home devices.

Apple has finally released their Apple TV 4K with built-in Siri and a microphone so it can respond to your queries even if you don't have the remote. It also increases in price, to $299. I had been planning on updating my current Apple TV 4K streamers, but that's $600 for the two of them, and that's a pass at this point.

At $299, it had better come with 256 GB of Storage, Gigabit (or better) Ethernet, the latest HDMI tech and standards, and one year of free Apple One. But it probably won't…

Apple TV 4K

Apple TV 4K. New Siri AI and hands-free control. Stunning picture and immersive HomePod surround sound. Works with your Apple and smart home devices.

Not a bit. IMO, Apple's are slow to boot up. Time is about the same with 1st gen and 3rd. Roku runs rings around them in that department. I only reason I stuck, is the Apple infrastructure, which has it's definite advantages. But $300 is a deal breaker. Later, Apple!

No. Makes me wonder if that is Apple or the carrier. I am on pre-paid, so I never get "an upgrade." I still have my old iPhone 11 Pro as a second line, and it runs iOS 27 just fine. My iPhone Air, which is still a current model, doesn't really seem that much faster in regular use. It is better in other ways, and worse in some ways than the 11 Pro (size), but performance really isn't a big differentiator, especially since I replaced the battery in the 11 Pro. If I had gotten enough storage when I originally bought the 11 Pro, it could still be my primary device with no issues.

Yeah, they boot up a bit slower than Roku, but the OS does a lot more, so it makes sense. How often are you booting them up that is a differentiator? Aside from OS updates, mine are on all the time.

Paramount +

For the naysayers who did not think this service would make it, just added another 4.9M subscribers and that was after the removal of 1.2M Russia subscribers.

This is even better, Paramount+ revenue grew 120% and Subscription revenue grew 74% year-over-year ( 2nd quarter 2021/ 2nd quarter 2022) to $830M, principally reflecting paid subscriber growth on Paramount+.

Now compare that to Peacock with only 13 million paid, 13 million free.

So, this means that those of us with Commercial Free subs, won't be Commercial Free, unless we wait till after the show is over ?

Paramount+ has always had the CBS shows on the CBS local channel and yes with commercials. What they are doing now is releasing the OnDemand versions of the show which I believe they don't release until after the shows air on the west coast. And they will be commercial free if you subscribe to the ad free version of Paramount+.

Watching it on the CBS local on Paramount+ is the exact same as watching it on your CBS local on your current cable/satellite/mvpd/vMVPD service. The OnDemand versions of it can be released on the same day that it airs but usually it is after the show airs on the west coast so if you have a show at 7:00 pm in your time zone and it airs 3 hours later on the west coast at 10:00 pm your time then they could release it at 11:00 pm your time if it was a one hour show. I really have not checked to see what time I can see the ad free OnDemand shows on Paramount+. I know today that last nights FBI and CIA show did not pop into the Up Next row on my Apple TV until this afternoon. I guess it may have been in Paramount+ since last night but I never checked it.

For niche use cases, yes I agree. Kali for ethical hacking and security testing, and running a Cacti server for network monitoring are the two things I have experience in. Plus thousands and thousands of other things, but for every day use I just can't see it. The owner of the GMRS repeater that I pay to access is changing the Tx DPL tones tomorrow, while Chirp is available on Linux, the software to program my MXT500 is not.

I run Fedora and Ubuntu in VMWare, honestly I don't care much for the UI of either of them and I don't feel like spending days/weeks to customize the UI to make it look Windows-like when I could just use Windows. The cartoonish dock at the bottom of the screen reminds me of Apple products.

What is so fantabulous about the Windows UI? By many accounts, it has been going downhill since Windows 7.

There are Linux desktops that offer Windows or Mac UIs, yet you don't hear much chatter about them outside of questions about when the creators might get sued.

Because it's what I prefer. I know I've said this a few times, I use Open Shell to give me the cascading start menu a la WIN 95 and NT4.0. The only reason I went from Windows Vista to 7 back in the day was because of Classic Shell. I cannot stand anything other than the OG start menu from 30+ years ago. I'm using ExplorerPatcher to give me Windows 10 UI elements of the taskbar and right click context menus.

If you could take a look at how I set up Windows 95, you'd find many similarities to how I use 11.

I could probably use that as a starting point, but I don't like the full size icons. If you have to click on each folder that's also a no-go for me, it has to be cascading.

I used to have Peppermint Linux in a VM, that was about as close as I could get to recreating a Windows NT4.0 style of menu structure, but I could never get it to scale properly in VMWare on a 4K display and eventually gave up.

Whatever the boot up time it's fine with me. The longest part of my bootup is the HP SureStart BIOS integrity check. Once that is done, it's only a few more seconds. I haven't done this reg tweak yet since the reformat, but I switched the bootup animation to the Windows 10 style spinning circle of dots, and it's two and a half rotations. I can live with that.

I hope you don't believe that makes it wonderful (especially when you're using workarounds for Microsoft's malfeasance).

I use LibreOffice as opposed to Microsoft office (even in Windows) because it's UI is like the Office of old, so I'm putting my money where my mouth is (in a manner of speaking). The ribbon was one of the worst ideas to come out Redmond.

Song Name Game Part 3!

Sometimes a thread gets so many posts in it that is can cause issues for the server so that why today we introduce The Song Name Game Part 3!

So let the game continue!

The last song was added by Bobby who posted...

One Meat Ball - Andrews Sisters

CONTINUE ON AND HAVE FUN! WELCOME HOME TO SATELLITEGUYS.US!

Here are the original rules for the game as posted by WebbyDude back in 2006. http://www.satelliteguys.us/threads/68645-Song-Name-Game

Just name a song title and the band who performed it. The next person does the same thing, but needs to list a song title or band name which includes a word from the previous entry. Pick songs from any genre.

Example:

Long Live Rock and Roll -- Rainbow

Rainbow in the Dark -- Dio

Another example:

Ride the Lightning -- Metallica

Lightning Strikes -- Ozzy Osbourne

Get it?

An additional note: we all know that song titles, sometimes, use profane words. Because this is a family friendly website it is advised that you clean up that title up a bit. This is accomplished by using something like sh!t instead of the real word. Thanks....
