    Better question is how are they going to address the streaming delay of up to a minute. With live betting and social media revolving around these live events this could be an issue. Amazon seemed to have it figured out last year with their Thursday night games it was only a handful of seconds delay.

    Thanks I really appreciate it. I ordered some 3rd generation DECA's and some 2-Way splitters so I am gonna give it a shot!

    so basically the DECA Broadband connector will act as a switch seperating all the different devices connected to it?
  4. DIRECTV Connected Home
    I havent seen this question asked quite like this. I have a DECA Broadband connector, the one that is a few years old (DECABB1MR0-01) I have it connected to the router of course and fed into the SWM system into and through my SWM 16 in the attic. This currently gives all my connected receivers...

    Thanks guys. The HDCP shouldn't be an issue as I won't be using it to stream that kinda content mostly sports channels. I had heard that was the problem using the sling via HDMI so I had seen people suggest going with hooking the Sling up using Component outputs. The reason I asked to begin...

    I was thinking of getting the slingbox M1 and hooking it to an H24-100. My question is does anyone know if both the HDMI and component outputs are active at the same time on the H24 so that I could have it hooked to the Slingbox via component cables and HDMI to the television ?

    I was lucky enough to find an owned H24 on Ebay. I called the Card Verification Dept. many had suggested on here to verify the RID with them and they confirmed that it was indeed owned. They even seemed a little surprised by it, lol I had the gentleman put it in the notes that particular RID is...

    I will keep everyone up to date on if they want the H21 back or not. I do see what everyone is talking about in that they probably won't let a receiver I have leased be activated on a friends account. I'll probably just keep it in case I need it in the future if they don't want it back. I guess...

    I am not activating old equipment. For less than 100 bucks I purchased an h24 and an HR24. Chexked both RID numbers and they were clear to be activated.
  10. DIRECTV HD DVR/Receiver Discussion
    I have activated several recievers before that were previously used or I purchased from other people and I have never had an issue with it. These that I just bought I called and gave them the RID number and they said they were clear to activate. As long as they aren't tied to an account where...

    I purchased the h24 from an individual. I called Direct and gave them the RID and they said it was not active on any account and clear to be activated.
  12. DIRECTV HD DVR/Receiver Discussion
    I guess what I am saying is alot of times I have seen when people are leasing a receiver say 5 or 6 years and they replace it with a new one such as I will be doing here a lot of times Direct will tell them they don't want it back and to just keep it. I have gotten a receiver from folks before...

    I purchased an h24 and was going to replace my h-21 with it. H24 is much smaller and quicker and will be great for tailgating. Would y'all think Direct will want me to return the H21 to them as old as it is? I have a friend I was wanting to give it to so that he could add it to his account.

    I did find a site online that makes an adapter kit for the SL3 dish arm that allows it to fold LNB towards the dish for transportation and or storage. Im not sure if I am allowed to say the site or provide a link on here though lol
  15. DIRECTV General Discussion
    Yeah I knew that but that is why I have been dragging the SL3 with me to the games so we have High Def. I tried the Sat Go a few years back but I just couldnt go back to watching sports in HD even at the tailgate

    Last weekend my HR23-700 that I moved to the game room when I got my Genie finally quit. I was excited about this as it has always been so slow and loud. I have the protection plan and they told me to just trash it and they would drop ship me a new DVR. I was pumped because I thought I was...
  17. DIRECTV General Discussion
    I dont think that an antenna such as the "tailgater" that Dish has exists for Directv. Does anyone know if one has come along that I am not aware of or if one is in the works. With all the technology that Directv has been coming up with the last few years seems they would. They know alot of...

    So far so good on the issue with the new SWM-16. One on of the channels signal loss was happening on , which must be a 103 odd, ESPNU Every once in awhile the picture will pixelate or studder. Very sporadic. I can't tell if it is the channel or still a possible issue.
  19. DIRECTV General Discussion
    The problems appears to have been the SWM 16 module. The problem reappeared this morning so as suggested earlier I took thecoax 103 odd off the SWM 16 and attached it directly to the one box that I keep on the legacy port and the problem was solved so I knew that it was not the LNB on the dish...
  20. DIRECTV General Discussion
    Great idea on the legacy if the problem creeps up again. Won't be a problem I have a box full of blue barrells. I went ahead and got an appt although closest they had was two weeks from now. In the meantime I will do some troubleshooting. I don't think it was the heat of the attic because it was...
