  1. DIRECTV HD DVR/Receiver Discussion
    I understand that NTFS is only used in a windows environment. However sometimes people have had issues with DVR's not recognizing a formatted partition. Once it detects the drive properly it will reformat and partition the drive as needed.

    Wipe the partition and see if the DVR sets it up. If it doesn't I would create a new partition and just format it with NTFS. The DVR should recognize the drive and then take it from there.

    BBCA is affiliated now but not owned by AMC. BBCA still owns the majority share as well as the current broadcasting agreements. http://www.usatoday.com/story/money/business/2014/10/23/amc-enters-joint-venture-to-operate-bbc-america/17796011/

    AMC is under contract through the end of the year. AMC knows they don't have any leverage after Walking Dead ends in a couple weeks and so they're just trying to use scare tactics. They've been running commercials for a few weeks now actually without much success so I'm surprised they haven't...

    Intent is correct but not the description. Ordering SD receivers or DVRs in a MPEG 4 market will install HD equipment without the HD charge or channels. A Genie is only a HD DVR so HD is required.

    They really don't have to do anything. I know the arguments on both sides of the fence but if we stick to purely legal means it's already proving that getting all of the content that you want to watch, those "10-15" channels, is in most circumstances not going to be a large savings, and unless...

    Clearmybox was not setup specifically for HR34's and like other "fixes" that get posted on here it's more speculation which may or may not have an impact on your issue. This is very similar to the old clear cache that people would post all of the time.
  9. DIRECTV Installation/MDU Discussion
    I'm not telling you what to believe or not to believe. I'm just stating that you can't take a fact and then add your opinion to it and have it still be a fact. I would also say it's a stretch to say it's a trend because it was one quarters results which has a trend, over multiple years, of not...

    You can't take numbers and just apply them how you want to and call it facts. Fact Verizon FIOS added 100k video customers and 139k internet customers in Q2 2014. Now the composition of those customer's is unknown. For example I think it would be safe to say that "most" new customer's sign up...

    WPS has had security issues since it's inception. Generally speaking "easy authentication" and "secure" won't go together. Much like the usb security issue. In about 5 years we may start to see password applications become more mainstream and security as a whole go up but until then companies...

    DIRECTV cannot broadcast the games that are on your local affiliates on the NFLST channels. Your local affiliates have the exclusive right, just like DIRECTV does with the NFLST, for that game in your market. A contract dispute will not impact your ability to get that game. If you do some...

    It was national. With that said I can say that the error rates were much higher in the beginning than they are now and generally erred on the side of broadcasting it rather than not. It's entirely possible that the HD versions were more accurate as they probably had newer facilities driving...

    Actually it was changed the year before the major local roll out on the 119. HD came a couple of years after that. I want to say it was 2001-2 IIRC. Before that every game was available on NFLST.

    Chrome 64 is also reporting the issue.

    Reminds me of the articles about Samsung and Apple lawsuits but then reading about Samsung getting more sales to Apple at the same time. Different parts of the companies have different goals and don't always agree on things.
  17. DIRECTV General Discussion
    I think the biggest contention here is the fact that people that were on Plus HD DVR paid the same price as people on Choice Xtra with HD and DVR service. The packages had the exact same channels and were only different in name and line items. Plus HD DVR used to be $1 cheaper and then they...
  18. DIRECTV General Discussion
    The charges for the packages were the same for Plus HD DVR and Choice Xtra with HD and DVR seperate. The changing of the name would not have increased your actual cost.

    You can add all of the spanish add on channels for $14.99 a month. There are others as well depending on what channels you want to watch.

    I believe that ESPN is not allowing HD content on the packages as it will drive adoption to ESPN3 for contract negotiations. It's not like the games are being shot in HD now ESPN just chooses to not broadcast them in HD.
