  1. DIRECTV General Discussion
    peds48: Ah, you're right it was NAD that mentioned that one - some media outlets conflated the two as did my head: http://www.asrcreviews.org/2015/04/nad-recommends-directv-discontinue-certain-claims-in-rob-lowe-ads-following-comcast-challenge-directv-to-appeal/ "NAD determined that the...

    60 fields doesn't equate to 30 point-in-time frames when de-interlaced. Honestly I'd take 720p60 for most sports over 1080i60 - just a personal preference. I'm not intending to kickstart 10 more pages of this thread on a resolution religious war though. :)
  3. DIRECTV General Discussion
    Genie, and 2014 Sony 65" of some sort configured properly. Correct, it was provided in 1080i. I also checked the recording after and it was the same. I've seen plenty of 1080p(24) content on PPV, but it's all films/pre-recorded or downloaded on-demand content. I could be wrong but I'm not...
  4. DIRECTV General Discussion
    Wow, that image scaled to an insane size, sorry.. They are advertising 1080P for the event. They can't (and didn't) broadcast in that format. IIRC, one of the stated items in the FTC action was misrepresentation of 1080P availability...which we know is only for on demand. I figured it might...
  5. DIRECTV General Discussion
    Anyone else notice this? What's wrong with this picture...they did it again....!
  6. Sirius XM General Discussion
    I never had XM, but wish I would have - and wish I had one of their receivers at least, even with the content headed downhill...or perhaps at the bottom already. I'm stuck with Sirius in my car, and the codec is just plain bad, seems they overcompress quite a bit, especially on the talk...
  7. DIRECTV HD DVR/Receiver Discussion
    Haven't found or looked for a list, but I just got the update and my 52XBR4 finally works without any tricks (e.g. dash trick). It's connected through a Denon AVR which is doing HDMI switching, and still works fine! ..not that there's any cheap or interesting 1080P content on D* to feed it..
  8. DIRECTV Programming
    HISTHD and BIOHD are absolutely worthless, they do this all the time. I don't even check anymore to see if they destroyed the content, even if I'm interested in it. I've completely given up on them. Junk. Give me Travel HD, or more PPV channels for all I care.
  9. DIRECTV General Discussion
    So, has anyone figured out how to search the schedule online now that they did ANOTHER redesign? The drop down appears to be gone...

    769-1 and 770-1 have audio here but not 772-1 and 773-1.

    DING DING DING DING! Ok rrrick, just go to the site and order your BBC, congrats.
  12. DIRECTV General Discussion
    What's the over/under on number of posts claiming to be #5000 and missing once we near it...which won't be long.
  13. DIRECTV General Discussion
    ..they wanted to help make sure the thread hit 200 pages tonight. I'm doing my part.
  14. DIRECTV General Discussion
    Any hope of new info at the conf. would come during Q&A I imagine...if there will be any.
  15. DIRECTV General Discussion
    Sorry to whoever is hosting this webcast...it's a public link though on D* investor relations! http://phx.corporate-ir.net/phoenix.zhtml?c=127160&p=irol-IRHome
  16. DIRECTV General Discussion
    On the way in a post soon, I haven't reached 5 yet, please ignore this post.
  17. DIRECTV General Discussion
    It's not TV. It's H-B...aaahh crap, we already have that one in HD.
