  1. DIRECTV General Discussion
    I don't really know which channels are on which sats, but I lost Bloomberg and ESPN and I think NBATV just like that and then all of a sudden they were back. It was strange, clear skies and no pixelation or anything, just bam, loss of signal and the frozen picture on the screen was just fine...
  2. DIRECTV General Discussion
    Sounds reasonable, they yanked it not long before the NFL playoff game last weekend, or so I was told.

    Fox WDSI-61 Chattanooga TN has been off the air for a few days, any news or updates concerning when it might be back?

    That sounds a lot better than I imagined. That's nice. I'm gonna have to figure out some way to come up with the cash. I could probably drop all my premium channels, I won't have time to watch them anyway. :grin: You ain't kidding about that, that was a long thread and it went from the start...

    ^^^^^ ^^^^^ Thanks for the Broadband/Roku replies. Now, I just got to figure out if it's worth it to me. There is only so much time. I suppose that the first week free trial will allow access to the broadband too and I can get a better gauge as to whether it's worth it to me. How fast are the...

    When you sub to League Pass, do you also get full access to the Broadband and Mobile programming packages? and if you get broadband access, will it work with the Roku?
  7. DIRECTV General Discussion
    Off the subject, but this whole thread is debatable subject wise anyway. :grin: How is it billed? You may not know that answer, but I would expect some kind of minimal commitment, or possibly some kind of activation/deactivation fee. I could get into programming my programming, if it wasn't...
  8. DIRECTV General Discussion
    Same here, I just don't have any use for it.
  9. DIRECTV General Discussion
    What a load of malarkey this whole fiasco is. What about the $10 credit that they accidentally removed last year about this time. I was told it would be tacked on to the end, but they couldn't give it back, that sure was a lot of $10 accidents they got that month. I got the email stating that I...
  10. DIRECTV Programming
    Of course that is what I have a problem with, the stations weren't determined by the consumers, they were decided by the distribution chain. It isn't survival of the fittest, it's decided by big brother. Directv, Dish, Comcast, TWC, etc... created this system and they just let it grow and we pay...
  11. DIRECTV Programming
    There in lies the entire problem with the setup we have today. The consumer, the actual watcher of the stations have no say so in any of these disputes. The disputes are all between the distributor and the provider, we can't really vote with our pocketbook to show our displeasure or vice versa...
  12. DIRECTV General Discussion
    I'm in your camp. I just want to use the DVR and have it work when I tell it to. I didn't change the way I watch TV, but this is just overly irritating, I go in to do some housecleaning and it may take 10 minutes to erase 10 programs, that's just plain ridiculous. The box should be doing it's...
  13. DIRECTV HD DVR/Receiver Discussion
    Just noticed that some of my favorites disappeared from the list again. Once again it's the newer HD premiums that disappeared, the new HBO's, TMC, some of the Showtimes, but not all the newest ones. :confused: I have no idea what is causing it or when it is actually happening, I don't normally...
  14. DIRECTV HD DVR/Receiver Discussion
    HR20-100 doing the same, slow and sluggish. Normally mine is this way if it's been sitting most of the day and no one has been around. If I start pushing buttons and using the box, it seems to start working a lot quicker. Had a new problem today, came in and sat down and it was on FX-HD and the...

  16. DIRECTV HD DVR/Receiver Discussion
    I just looked at mine and it has the Monday 8/2 scheduled to record, I might have missed it earlier, I bet I did miss it and you are right about the HD portion. And now that you mention it, the Haven that I manually set to record last night isn't listed as HD in the list of recordings. That does...
  17. DIRECTV HD DVR/Receiver Discussion
    I just checked my todo list and Warehouse 13 isn't scheduled to record on Tuesday or anytime according to the todo list. Dang, I really don't want to be checking my todo list constantly to make sure the box is doing it's most basic function. :( I have a Moxi with a limited Cable selection and...
  18. DIRECTV HD DVR/Receiver Discussion
    Recently I'm noticing some strange scheduling of recordings, mainly on Syfy. I recorded Warehouse 13 last night and it also recorded the same episode again this afternoon at 3:00 pm. I was checking my todo list and Haven isn't scheduled to record Friday night at 10:00 pm, but is scheduled to...
  19. DIRECTV General Discussion
    It may be like mine, I signed up a few weeks back, and got the credit on my first bill, autopay on the 15th of June, which I shouldn't have, this month's statement shows the credit, but it also shows that my last payment was $10 short. I assume that the credit was applied to my account and when...

    Unless you're totally set on Intel, I'd look at an AMD Phenom II X6(or X4) with an ATI Video Card. In the past I would only buy Intel, but a couple of years ago I put together an AMD system and I've had no problems with it at all. I encode a lot of videos and it works great and has no problem...
