  1. DIRECTV General Discussion
    After about 25 years I ended up cancelling my Directv today. Cancelling was my primary intent when I called but I waited to hear offers. My bill is $152 and that includes 3 mos left of a $30 discount. She did offer me a $40 discount before I ended up still cancelling. In 4 months my bill...

    I’m playing around and having some degree of success using 2 recorded shows and Home > Resume Watching. As I switch back and forth between the shows it’s resuming where I left off.

    So frustating. I wish we could at least get prompted to Resume from Last Watch from the Home screen.

    Has anyone been able to get YTTV to re-create the same effect as Double Play? I'm in a YTTV trial and playing around with it. Seems like I should be able to watch to shows (actually games) at once, delaying the start, and then flipping between them and skipping all commercials.

    22 years, but getting ready to leave.

    I'm more looking for the grace and simplicty of the 'down' button or the 'prev' button.

    I tested YTTV's Multiview this weekend and its pretty much like the 3 or 4 game multiview DTV gave us with Sunday Ticket. But there is still no way to replicate watching more than one game, staying near-live with the games and skipping commercials, like we can with dual live buffers. I keep...

    Interesting. I never thought of that. Still the flexibility of the skip time is more important to me. I come from the TiVo generation where we had our secret code to get a 30 second skip.
  9. Internet Streaming Services
    Seems like they should let you adjust the skip times.

    But I've been using the 30 sec skip (and the satellite skip back) with NFL for over 20 years now. I'm great at it. I have it down to an art, but I'll admit there's an occassional "oh this play won't be good" muumbled when the NFL is in hurry-up or on a Saturday SEC game.
  11. Internet Streaming Services
    I do wish we could configure the 10 sec skip to be 30.

    I used the 800-824-9077 number and had no luck. They tried to reduce my package but that wasnt an option for me. Then they transferred me to "cancellation" and he couldnt offer me anything either. I had a $40 and $30 credit but the $40 expired last month. My bill is now about $143/month. I've...

    With an HR44 and HR24, I'm not really finding any usefullness for this app so far. The TVoS app can see that I have an older HR24 but it can't read its content. And for the HR44, everything is either Only Availiable on the DVR or gets converted to On Demand, where I can't skip commercials or...

    if I run into the dud issue, I just select yet a different game to jump to. There are 5 tuners all firing on Saturdays. The idea is to be able to see easily see every minute and skip every commercial of at least 2 games.
  15. Internet Streaming Services
    So true! And Dual Live Buffers are amazing, too! With college ball especially there's usually 2 good games airing around the same time. I start watching one about 20-30 mins after their live start. From there I can use Doubleplay to watch every minute of each game and avoid all the...

    Oh well :( If a streaming service ever offered something like DLB I'd be there in a minute. The 4 live games is "bait" to watch commercials, something I just don't do.
  17. Internet Streaming Services
    I’m still looking for a streaming service that‘ll let me watch more than one football game at once, staring a bit delayed, but being able to pause one and switch to the other, never missing any action, yet skipping all the commercial. My Directv satellite lets me do that with dual life buffers...
  18. DIRECTV General Discussion
    is there a 30 second skip and 3 sec back skip like the HRs have?
  19. DIRECTV Programming
    Thanks, that channel says I'm all set to enjoy 2021 ST. I sure hope that means complimentary was I was told.
  20. DIRECTV Programming
    I just did all that and the rep told me that on July 11 I was already given a "Proactive Loyalty Offer" for 2021 ST Max. I looked on my statement and I see: Seasonal Sports Subscriptions 3. NFL SUNDAY TICKET MAX 2021 0.00 Season starts on 09/12 She wasn't able to email me anything, but...
