I used the following search arguments :-

AALL JESSE STONE TTITLE

This picked up the upcoming Jesse Stone movie on CBS on Sunday May 20th but the "Autorecord" function would not record it.

When I displayed the "View Upcoming" it showed 3 showings of the movie.

The first showing was on channel 390 (which I don't get)
The second showing was on channel 13 (which I do get)
The third showing was on channel 391 (which I also don't get)

I redid the advanced search adding a channel range of channels 3 thru 378 - thus omitting channels 390 and 391. The revised search arguments were:-

AALL JESSE STONE TTITLE CCHAN 3 378

This revision worked and "Autorecord" scheduled the recording on Channel 13 ]]> DIRECTV Programming AndyPopely http://www.dbstalk.com/showthread.php?t=205050 http://www.dbstalk.com/showthread.php?t=205030&goto=newpost Wed, 16 May 2012 22:11:24 GMT I've had NHLCI since 1995, and I'm generally happy with it, but I've been considering NHL Gamer Center instead for next season. I have a fast internet connection, a 25" monitor, as well as a good laptop and iPhone 4s. I also like not being tied to DirecTV, even though I've been with them since 1995 as well, because you never know when you'll need to economize ever more in this economy. I've been reading tech sites that have been singing the praises of GameCenter over NHLCI, but I thought I'd solicit opinions here where there are probably more NHLCI afficionados.

Would anyone recommend jumping over to Game Center for the convenience of portability (and the other features) rather than sticking with NHLCI? ]]> DIRECTV Programming islesfan http://www.dbstalk.com/showthread.php?t=205030 http://www.dbstalk.com/showthread.php?t=204949&goto=newpost Sun, 13 May 2012 19:00:38 GMT Well, I started the last one in this vein, so.........The Preakness is Saturday and I don't live in NY so NBC's plan for a possible Saturday overtime is??????????? ]]> DIRECTV Programming dhkinil http://www.dbstalk.com/showthread.php?t=204949 http://www.dbstalk.com/showthread.php?t=204915&goto=newpost Sat, 12 May 2012 01:41:50 GMT This is so bizarre back when the whole dispute with tribune happened i lost my cw decided to submit a request for the local cw and completely forgot about it decided to check it and it was granted...

EL SEGUNDO, Calif., May 10, 2012 – DIRECTV announced today that it has ordered ten episodes of an original suspense-drama, ROGUE, starring award-winning actress Thandie Newton (Mission Impossible 2, Crash) from leading independent studio Entertainment One Television (eOne) and Greenroom Entertainment. ROGUE marks DIRECTV’s first foray into commissioning an original drama series exclusively for its customers. Production is slated to begin in August 2012 and the series will premiere next summer 2013 on DIRECTV’s Audience Network.

ROGUE revolves around a morally and emotionally conflicted cop, Grace (Newton), who is tormented by the possibility that her own actions contributed to her son’s death. Grace’s search for the truth is further complicated by her forbidden relationship with the crime boss who may have played a hand in the crime. With the addition of ROGUE, DIRECTV expands on its commitment to offer quality, exclusive programming to its customers after establishing great success in providing a home and new creative life to Emmy-winning series such as Damages and Friday Night Lights, and exclusive, first-run series like Underbelly, The Slap and the upcoming series, Hit & Miss.

I was thinking about switching to DTV from Comcast but had a few questions. The channels that I need and watch the most are

AMC HD
BBC America HD

Does Directv carry these? And if not do they plan to? And I have Tivo right now and love it. I know DTV has Tivo in my area but I'm not sure if it runs the same software version as the normal Tivo's. Do you get the HD menus with the DTV version of Tivo?
