  1. DIRECTV General Discussion
    I can't name any, I'm just replying to comments made on the 2nd page of this thread. Network may be sending their stuff to affiliates via MPEG-4, but I don't know of a single one (affiliate) that sends Directv a MPEG-4 feed.
  2. DIRECTV General Discussion
    I'm not sure of how many locals across the country Directv gets via MPEG-4, but I know here in Huntsville, they get the locals via OTA at their call center, and that's MPEG-2.
  3. DIRECTV Connected Home
    Video plays fine on my rooted (and custom rom) HTC Thunderbolt.
  4. DIRECTV General Discussion
    It would have been better to do that to a 3 1/2" floppy, since so many people back then thought those were hard disks.
  5. DIRECTV General Discussion
    LOL, I bet you're right.
  6. DIRECTV Programming
    HBO normally does a weekend freeview whenever a popular show is returning, and in this case, it's the return of True Blood.
  7. DIRECTV Programming
    Got home from work, and it was back in the guide again. Weird, though I've heard of this happening with other channels before on this forum. Gotta have my Robin Meade in the morning!
  8. DIRECTV Programming
    Got up this morning and noticed that HLN was no longer in the guide, and I couldn't manually tune to it either. Anyone else have this issue/glitch?
  9. DIRECTV HD DVR/Receiver Discussion
    LOL, I've never used the "List" button, and thankfully on my Harmony, the first LCD button is "List". Thanks for the tip, works like a charm!
  10. DIRECTV HD DVR/Receiver Discussion
    Got it yesterday here in Huntsville (a good week early). Love the speed, and actually like the color scheme. I calibrated my display with an Eye-One, HCFR software, and the AVS HD disc. Everything looks great to me. My only nitpick is that "My Playlist" is the third option down, instead of...
  11. DIRECTV General Discussion
    I work for a television station in Huntsville. Years ago, when APT went HD, they were doing some funky stuff with their PSIP. A lot of people were having problems with their ATSC receivers picking them up correctly, or if they did, having picture problems. I worked with APT's engineers for a...
  12. DIRECTV General Discussion
    Yes, I meant listening to the TV broadcast.
  13. DIRECTV General Discussion
    I've never had a problem with the blackouts, as the games are always on some channel that I get. I did run into a problem this past weekend though, regarding black outs. I tried listening to the Titans game via the NFL-ST app on my Android as I drove back home, but couldn't, because it was...

    Market just updated the app on my HTC Thunderbolt.

    Hey Bob, I take it you're a UNA graduate? I shoot/produce/direct the Terry Bowden show during FB season.
  16. DIRECTV General Discussion
    Meh, now I'm not excited. What if I'm out of town and want to watch a show that was recorded 1 hour ago? Sorry, gotta wait until I get home, and then transfer it to my phone. By then, I'll just watch it on the big screen.
  17. DIRECTV General Discussion
    That seems to be the case. Though, the Nomad device should do some sort of re-encode in real-time. It's basically a sling box.
  18. DIRECTV General Discussion
    My parents Onkyo works just fine with Directv's 3D channels. It's the AVR that came with the Onkyo HTS-5400. They bought it at HHGregg. It's odd that the AVR that comes with the HTS-5300 doesn't work properly. Have you turned off all video processing in the AVR? EDIT: I set it up for them...
  19. DIRECTV General Discussion
    I always order PPV (especially sporting events) via the website, since as was previously said, all receivers can view it. If you order with the remote, only that receiver has access.
  20. DIRECTV Programming
    You would think HBO would do a free preview this weekend, with the return of "True Blood".
