  1. DIRECTV General Discussion
    I don't remember exactly when we switched from Comcast to DirecTv but it's been at least 17 years. Last year we switched from DTV Satellite to DTV Stream. Saved about $60/mo and added Paramount+, MAX, and Disney+ to Netflix which we already had and still pay less than DTV Satellite alone. Plus...
  2. DIRECTV General Discussion
    I was having a problem with several series not being recorded. I called support and talked to a rep and one of the things he told me was there is a 30 recordings per series limit even if you have unlimited hours of recordings which I do. So I looked at my list of recordings and saw one series...

    I have DirecTv Stream. On the guide there are three channels 698 were the Kings games are broadcast. Each is marked with a subchannel. When I tune to the first channel 698 it shows a blue screen with a message that basically says the game is not available. When I switch to the second channel 698...

    I wanted to try AppleTv+ and looked for it under the DirecTv Stream Apps menu and couldn't find it anywhere. Is it possible to watch AppleTv+ via the DirecTv Stream service? If so how do you add the app?
  5. DIRECTV HD DVR/Receiver Discussion
    I had a HR24 in a room where I watch TV. It was set to record only shows I liked to watch. The Genie was in the living room and it recorded shows both my wife and I liked to watch. But when my bill was consistently over $180 I turned in the HR24 and the Genie and switched to DirecTv Stream with...

    I'm a DirecTv satellite customer and I just signed up for DirecTv Stream on a trial basis. I didn't get any of the perks for new customers so It's costing me $114/mo including tax for the Ultimate package. I got 20 hours of cloud DVR storage which is enough to try it out for two weeks. If I want...

    Thank you for answering all my questions directly. Much appreciated.
  8. DIRECTV General Discussion
    I'm thinking about switching to DirecTv Streaming. It would save me about $100/mo if I go with Choice or about $80/mo if I go with Ultimate. My question is about the DVR functionality. What are the differences in using the DirecTv DVR and the DirecTv Streaming version. Specifically... 1.Online...
  9. DIRECTV HD DVR/Receiver Discussion
    I've been having this problem for two or three months now. Called DTV once at least two months ago and they said they were aware of the problem and was working on a fix. Still no fix. 1. Programs that were recorded do not appear on the list. You can find them if you go into program manager...

    Found it. Buried deep in the menu system. Another example that this GUI was not user tested before it was released.
  11. DIRECTV General Discussion
    I'm interested and wondering if it is discussed here or in another forum or a different website?
  12. DIRECTV HD DVR/Receiver Discussion
    I'm not exactly sure when this happened but I think in the last 24 hours. Shows recorded on my HR24 started showing up on my Genie list. This annoys the heck out of my wife as there are a lot more shows to scroll through. You use to be able to filter the list but I can't find a way to do that...
  13. DIRECTV Programming
    The first three episodes of this series are on the Audience channel however I have not been able to find out if, where, and when the remainder of the episodes will appear. There was some hint that it might pull a CBS and have it appear only on DirecTv Now but I can find no information. Seems...

    I had this same problem when I tried to record Kings basketball games. They suck but I live in the Sacramento area so I follow them. Anyway I finally decided to delete them and couldn't figure out how. I tried everything but they kept recording. Finally they stopped recording but then I got...

    Three programs are regular weekday news shows on a cable news channel. Their description never changes. The shows the day before and after have recorded as they should. The other two were movies on the Hallmark movie channel. Both were premiers and had never been shown before.
  16. DIRECTV HD DVR/Receiver Discussion
    I have a HR-44. In the past week I've had at least five programs that did not record when they should have. In the history it says they were cancelled due to a "programming update." Three of them are setup as a series program on the same channel. Two were set to record by pressing the record...
  17. DIRECTV Installation/MDU Discussion
    The problem lies in the fact that no one has done what needs to be done to port the number over from Comcast. I had one rep tell me she talked to the department that does the porting while I was on hold. She said it would be taken care of. Right! That was several days ago and still no request...
  18. DIRECTV Installation/MDU Discussion
    No. The number is still active with Comcast although an AT&T rep told me to cancel the number with Comcast and when I went to do that Comcast said if I did that I would loose the number. So I'm basically paying $179/mo so my 91 year old mother has phone service. She has a Rescue Alert necklace...

    Maybe if you are wealthy. But if you are living off Social Security $179 is a lot of money. Especially when you have no use for internet access other than to be able to have VOIP service.
  20. DIRECTV Installation/MDU Discussion
    The number was originally created by AT&T over 40 years ago then ported to Comcast a couple of years ago. Many of the numbers in the area still use the same prefix. You would think that if there were a problem porting the number over AT&T would tell me and explain the problem. Comcast says...
