    It is as it is working on Android. I'm on an old CE from Nov before the issue started. I haven't downloaded since and the issue didn't start until after that. It was fixed around Christmas and the only update was to the app. Sent from my SM-T813 using Tapatalk

    It isn't in the CE, it is in the updates to the DTV app that fixed it Sent from my SM-T813 using Tapatalk

    Well now they are showing up (maybe just on-demand) but I can't download them. I guess that is a step forward although a very small one to getting back to the GG functionality. Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk

    I think it is a disk space issue, they don't want to use too much space. They need to let you set the quality as long as it doesn't hurt performance of the box, which it shouldn't. Sent from my SM-T813 using Tapatalk

    The resolution or pq is so low that it would probably make them look bad. On a laptop, it will be unwatchable so I don't think it is in the plans. Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk

    I have that issue on my android phone. The Android tablet version works fine on my tablet. Sent from my SM-T813 using Tapatalk

    I was never notified. I only knew because I read it online. For SD switch, they will call everyone multiple times. It would be one thing to go to a better product that you may not need. They are going to a lesser product, you can't claim it is any where near to what the GG2 did. Sent from my...

    That is even worse if they sent a firmware to make it nonfunctional. I wonder if they have any legal right to do that. Shutting servers down is one thing, pushing firmware that kills it is totally different. Worth a call to get some discounts. Sent from my SM-T813 using Tapatalk

    Same for me. I don't think they sent a kill switch, but it is in a reboot loop and not connecting to the server. I guess I'll be calling and complaining, they never sent me an email about it. Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk

    Make sure you complain to DTV, you should get at least $100 for someone not showing up. Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk

    It should work fine, you just need to download it from other sources Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk

    Does this work on the DTV app? Can't find anything. Sent from my Venue 8 7840 using Tapatalk

    They let you skip back, just not forward. Probably has to do with them not wanting you to try to skip pass the transcoded point. With the GG1 and MDVR being 1:1 transcoding, there probably isn't a reason to allow it. Then there is the streaming contracts and it probably falls under that, so no...

    You can't fast forward unless the show is over. Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk

    My GG2 isn't that good. Streaming was terrible comparing to Slingbox and while transcoded is watchable, the file size is only ~550MBs for 1 hour and a Vulkano recording at 640x480 is ~950MBs. While some compression could be the cause, not 400MBs. It's the least quality option and they don't...

    I get better quality using Slingbox than with GG2. Based on file size, etc the quality is not high. Sent from my Venue 8 7840 using Tapatalk

    The transcoded content from you DVR is very low. You can't change it right now, hopefully DTV gives us the option or improves the resolution. Sent from my Venue 8 7840 using Tapatalk

    The tech could also be wrong, saw the tree was close and didn't want to risk it being an issue. Unless the tech actually puts in a dish to test the signal, they are guessing and their first statement is no LOS to get out of an install. I would get a compass to check it and also look online...
  19. DIRECTV General Discussion
    With LOS, most installers aren't even going to bother trying. The DTV ones have to hit 95 or better I think so they don't want to waste time. There are apps that will show you were the sats are at in the sky and you can also use the Sun at different times of the year. I had one that came out to...

    Yep you have to use PC/Mac for some reason Sent from my Venue 8 7840 using Tapatalk
