    They dont need new satellites. They will just send out new boxes with the AV1 codec, and put twice as many channels per transponder ;)

    NFL fans with DirecTV stream...the two games this Saturday are on NFL Network...so plan on watching somewhere else.

    The question remains, how slow is the LEO satellites data rate going to drop if everyone in the country starts streaming 4K video? I can see them adding some serious caps real quick once that starts happening.

    How come Sling is the only provider to break ESPN out of their lineup and offer it separately? $35/mo for most channels, add $15 for Disney and ESPN's. Guess that is where YTTV got the $15 discount fee from, but they are losing a LOT more channels than the 6 channels Sling gets the $15 for.
  5. DIRECTV General Discussion
    Yea, just checked on DirecTV's site, they added Midwest now that Fox Sports doesnt own it anymore apparently. They didnt have it when I was a subscriber. On the other hand, DirecTV Stream does not have it...they only have: AT&T SportsNet Southwest AT&T SportsNet Southwest Astros Bally Sports...

    You are correct, that is one reason I wont sub to DirecTV or DISH, they force you to pay for the RSNs (and DirecTV Stream adds it in the base price), and I have NOT ONE IOTA of interest in watching the Texas Rangers, when my team is the St Louis Cardinals and THEY are blacked out on MLBTV...

    Gosh I wish I could combine YouTubeTV's package with DIrecTv Streams Cloud DVR/Osprey box/Remote. I absolutely hated YTTV's DVR, and its inability to delete shows you already watched...Its a big MESS trying to find a new show buried in old ones...and no, the new one does not always show up...

    They could if they could pick and choose what channels to carry without being forced to carry all of a providers BS channels. Start dropping low value channels to keep prices down, but they are forced to carry all the BS channels to carry the good one. It is going to blow up on them soon...

    Good thing they cut me off then. I would have canceled anyway.

    Enjoy your first price increase they just announced... Geeze ATT wont ever learn.
  11. DIRECTV General Discussion
    Think entertainment is $70, but if they dont include some DVR space for free with those price increases, they are going to wish ATT kept control when they lose all their money.
  12. General DISH™ Discussion
    Yea, I ended up downloading the NFL app, and it was there. Never heard of a yahoo sports app, but Ill check it out.
  13. DIRECTV General Discussion
    So if they are using IPTV for X1, why are they still 720p and compressed to hell, even on 1080i original channels? They should be able to really let it rip in picture quality if they arent constrained by MPeg2/4
  14. DIRECTV General Discussion
    Apple TV OS is pretty popular with high end users on AVS also.
  15. DIRECTV General Discussion
    Then I suppose all the people at Fox Sports are lunatics because that is EXACTLY what they are doing. If instead of calling folks names, you read the post, you would see it said: Note the HDR in there? Only a professional upconverting system can do that. It is what Fox Sports does with...
  16. General DISH™ Discussion
    That is ESPN PLUS, you can not watch ESPN, ESPN2 or ESPN3 with a ESPN PLUS subscription, you have to subscribe to a traditional provider.
  17. DIRECTV General Discussion
    I used to have the same issues as you. I finally got comcast to come out here and run a new cable (it was like 100' to the pole) and the problems disappeared. After that I never had any drop outs or issues with Docsis (motorola modem) when I had comcast. It think rather than the docsis your...

    Ill bet you hate puppies and kittens too.
  19. DIRECTV General Discussion
    $10 a month on top of the already $16 higher package cost for the channels I needed plus no Red Zone were the reasons I canceled. I am currently paying $56 , including Red Zone, and 200 hours of DVR space. Lots cheaper. DirecTv had some padding, YouTubeTV padded really good. My current...
  20. General DISH™ Discussion
    I am retired. My "work" involves going to the office on Monday nights in December to answer a phone for a few hours for my boss so she doesnt have to hire another person to fill in the slot when the other three employees are taking their end of year vacation time. I do it every year for her...
