  1. DIRECTV HD DVR/Receiver Discussion
    Has the OP checked to see if the HDMI on the 54 works on a different TV? It seems entirely possible the 54 has a bad HDMI port.

    Thanks for the info guys. Ended up with a HR54 and a couple clients.
  3. DIRECTV General Discussion
    Well at a later point I might want to add the ability to have more then 5 tuners. Should I not try to talk them into setting me up with a better SWM. Also what are my options for OTA? I have on HD local they aren't carrying.
  4. DIRECTV General Discussion
    Had to lol, I looked up my old posts and found a install topic covering some of these questions from three years ago. Can't believe that the hr44 is still the primary DVR after three years still. The old thread suggested I get a swm16 because I had a genie and a DVR. I called to try and add...

    Well just a update. I ended up ordering D* today with a genie and two Mimi's . I guess I'll take what's on the truck lol.
  6. DIRECTV General Discussion
    UGH.... I'm starting to seriously look at Dish and the Hopper 3. It is a two year price guarantee and that Hopper 3 seems pretty cool. We had comcast with the X1 and my moms pretty spoiled with primetime shows all being right there. I may have to give up some PQ for a better piece of hardware...

    The hooper seems tempting but I'm a little worried about HD lite. We will have three rooms and three or four tv's to hook up. However the actual two year price lock is nice. I'd love all those tuners and space for sure though. I'll be honest if it was just me I'd just go with a Tivo Bolt and...

    Hey guys it's been a very long time since I've been on the forum. I used to be on here and contribute all the time, but a couple moves and a few years in Chicago with comcast pushed me away from DBS. Well long story short I'm moving back to the corn fields and DBS is the only option. I'm...
  9. DIRECTV Installation/MDU Discussion
    I don't know what happened but it's working now lol.
  10. DIRECTV Installation/MDU Discussion
    Well you guys were right on the money. The installer was there very early and i got a wake up call and hurried out there. I didnt get a chance to see the posts before the install. I ended up with HR44, HR24, and a gen mini. I can live with that honetly. My big issue is now its saying whole home...
  11. DIRECTV Installation/MDU Discussion
    Hello I currently have three HR24's with Whole Home. I'm moving to a new place a couple miles down the road. I set up a movers connection but found out my new place is all wired up with the same dish as mine it seems. So I don't think they will have to replace the dish. The rep set up a Genie...
  12. DIRECTV General Discussion
    I'm not going to get into the mud slinging thats going on in the thread. We all have our preferences and I'm just glad we have some options again. Personally I've never been very happy with my hr21 over the years I've had it. It's slow and clunky. I still find it odd that it reponds to ipad...
  13. DIRECTV HD DVR/Receiver Discussion
    Sounds cool hope I get it soon. My DVR is acting very funny right now. I hope this irons it out!
  14. DIRECTV Programming
    Just called Directv to cancel the ST. Told them I was just cutting back on my budget some and was looking to save some money. Told here I'd be interested in the RZC as a stand alone product if they offered it. She had to cancel ST first but after she did she was able to give me the RZC FREE! You...

    I'm not trying to define fair use because as we know that's very subjective. With that said you made a statement claiming that you can't copy something from disk to disk. I'm saying that's out and out wrong. The DMCA made it illegal to break the copy encryption on DVDs movies ect. There is...
  16. DIRECTV General Discussion
    Well if your not breaking a encryption that is protected by law yes it is.
  17. DIRECTV Programming
    YES!! I noticed it right away and explained the whole thing to my dad. A great improvement now back to the games!
  18. DIRECTV Programming
    Discovery, TLC, Starz, ect not enought for you? The only difference is Malone has so far did a good job of running these businesses separately. While Comcast likes to use it's channels as weapons against competetiors. Personally I just want the situation resolved. Serouisly I'd gladly pay ala...
  19. DIRECTV Installation/MDU Discussion
    Do you have a multiswitch? Yes Is this one or all receivers that are HD? All HD but one and it's not able to get at least some locals. You're getting other HD channels that are not in the 70's correct? Correct we are getting many HD channels still all out of the 70's range. I'm thinking a...
  20. DIRECTV Installation/MDU Discussion
