    Only the On-TV-Screen display of the results is limited to the HR24 or higher... The Voice search functionality with results on the mobile device, will be available to all mobile device users.
  2. DIRECTV Connected Home
    That functionality has been in the app for nearly a year now... Is there something specifically not working with it?
  3. TV Show Talk
    That all is a side-effect of the following: - Reality TV Show's being cheaper to produce - Need for instant raitings/hit status, no tollerance to give a show a half season, or full season... to tweek and retool - Pre-Reviews of shows, and the hoopla around it... killing it before the first...

    A-Team.... Still enjoy it to this day: Also... Highlander TV Series.. This one is Season 4, and is pretty good.
  5. DIRECTV Connected Home
    No Official DIRECTV Statement: (I don't know what classification DIRECTV DVR ends up in). I personally, paid for Pandora One, and will renew when my one year is up. Well worth the once a year payment. I can't tell you the last time I heard an Ad or had an interruption.

    In related news. Manti Te'o. Has been approached by NBC to costar in new TV series

    Phone service was never free for all... Don't see this ever changing, for WiFi. Public "free wifi" is already horrid in most cases. Most hotels speeds are absolute garbage, can't support even email.
  8. TV Show Talk
    I've watched it pretty regularly for the last 10 years... I watched last nights, and wrote it off for the season. Just brutal, and I don't mean the talent that was trying out. I have zero intentions of watching it this season... it will stay recording, as nonsense background noise if needed...
  9. TV Show Talk
    Again.... So? It's TV, It's Entertainment... There are shows that I expect to be real, and not scripted... DateLine, 20/20, 48hours.... Then there are shows that I don't care if they are scripted or not, aka: everythign else.
  10. TV Show Talk
    First: Total forgot Property Wars was on last night, got something to watch later. Second: All of these shows, not just Discovery and History all of them.... Are a blend between Rigged, Scripted, and Creatively Edited. They are blending pieces filmed at totally different times, to make it...
  11. DIRECTV General Discussion
    :) For this specific feature (the DVR functionality)... I know of it at the HGI. But in the last 4 years, there have only been a couple hotels I have been at, that were not powered by DIRECTV. (Both personal and travel). It is funny when you walk into the room, and you see the remote, or the...

    I have... Hilton Garden Inn in El Segundo.
  13. DIRECTV Connected Home
    Any particular one, as I have gone back and looked at the 8 comments that were posted... and curious on what issue you are seeing in those comments.
  14. DIRECTV Connected Home
    I am curious on what particular item you saw in the limited reviews, that lead you to this conclusion. As of this moment: 50 people have rated the app. 38 of them are 4 & 5 Star 8 are 3 star. 4 2 and 1 star. Only 8 people have written any comments. Of those, only 2 are below 3 star. So what...

    I have been using OpenDNS for about 3 years now. I never had the need, until Comcast's DNS Servers went down here in the Chicago area... I knew what to do, so was not impacted for long. However, others... 3 DAYS!!!! before they had the DNS servers back up and running...
  16. DIRECTV General Discussion
    It is possible a DNS related issue. Do you use Comcast's DNS? Or a 3rd party like OpenDNS ?
  17. DIRECTV Connected Home
    Are any of your receivers set to block playlist?
  18. TV Show Talk
    It is 100% copy of Friend or Foe... The only change is that there is a mystery/unknown cash prize. In general, the show isn't going to last... it isn't all that appealing and the format is too slow...
  19. Tech Talk - Gadgets, Gizmos and Technology
    Well it looks like my current router can run DD-WRT, so maybe that will be the first path. The issues I am seeing lately, is when we have two xbox's and netflix running, I am getting almost no throughput... everything plummets. I cam currently running buisness class service from comcast at...
  20. Tech Talk - Gadgets, Gizmos and Technology
    Thank you... I will do some more reading on that site. One question that maybe you guys can answer... NAT Throughput.... Is that something that is more software driven or hardware driven ? AKA, obviously better hardware is going to be more expensive then other hardware.
