  1. General DISH™ Discussion
    Thank you for all those answers.
  2. General DISH™ Discussion
    I need a little Dish tutorial. I am an over 20 year Directv customer that is forced to find new service as D* has so far refused to give me a Winback deal. So I am trying to figure out the Dish equivalent for what I had with D*. Can I please get some guidance? My D* set up is 2 TV's with a...
  3. DIRECTV General Discussion
    Thank you. I just got off a call with the reconnect department and for the first time in many years of being a customer they didn't offer me anything, not even a $1 off. So I think my current plan is to use a YTTV 2 week trial and then a Fubo 1 week trial to get me through the next 3 weeks and...

    I have seen people say that you can force an update by turning the box off and on 5 or 6 times. If I don't try to force an update the box will still eventually catch up on updates? I know with a regular DVR it will eventually catch up on all updates without forcing it.

    If I buy an Osprey Box from Ebay is it difficult to reset the box and have the up to date software downloaded? And I've read that the beta boxes forced HDR to be on which is a problem on my HDR set. Will the updated software correct the HDR issue?

    That thread is in the DISH forum. I searched the DTV forum so it did not show up on my search.

    Great thank you. I won't need it for too long. If I don't get a decent reconnect offer then I think I will try DTV Stream or Xfinity (yuck!). I've heard that Xfinity signal gets converted to 720p and I have an OLED TV so I'm leaning toward DTV Stream.

    I tried a search and all I found was 3 year old threads so I apologize if this is a duplicate question. I am scheduled for a disconnect effective tomorrow. Does it still work to be able to watch recordings if I disconnect cable from the DVR before the disconnect happens?
  9. DIRECTV General Discussion
    Thanks for this info. I have other devices to stream Apple TV.
  10. DIRECTV General Discussion
    Good. Thanks to everyone for the quick replies.

    I guess I have another question on the Osprey box suggested above. On a quick google search I see that the Osprey did not support 5.1 and that it was reported as an issue in beta. Anyone know if that is still the case?
  12. DIRECTV General Discussion
    OK good thanks.
  13. DIRECTV General Discussion
    Yes I had heard about that. Looks like I will try DTV Stream if I don't get a good reconnect deal. I asked up above but can someone tell me what the difference is between the Osprey box and the device that you get from ATT?
  14. DIRECTV General Discussion
    Thank you I appreciate the suggetion. Can you tell me what the difference is between the Osprey and the device that you get from ATT?
  15. DIRECTV General Discussion
    Excellent thank you so much. The cost is more than other streaming services but Youtube is missing an RSN I need and Fubo is missing Turner so DTV stream seems to be my only streaming option unless I combine Fubo and something like Sling. My only non-streaming option that will have all...
  16. DIRECTV General Discussion
    Thank you this helps me. I forgot to ask in my original post, does the stream service have Dolby 5.1 or is it 2.0 like YoutubeTV and Fubo?
  17. DIRECTV General Discussion
    I have set up a disconnect for 10/6 and if I do not get a good reconnect deal I will want to look at streaming options. My local RSN is missing from Youtube TV so I can't use that service. Fubo has the RSN but is missing Turner networks and CNN which I occasionally watch. So DTV Stream is my...

    Am I reading this right - $50 per month for Fios TV? More info please if that is the correct offer price.
  19. HD Locals
    This intermittent 771 started after some heavy rain last night. I don't think it is a coincidence I think something happened to the satellite that carries the HD locals. If nobody posted a problem I would have thought that maybe some water got into my cables or LNB. But with you having the...
  20. HD Locals
    I called and was on hold for 30 minutes so I abandoned the call and did a chat. Of course they said there are no known issues with Boston locals. They refreshed my boxes which temporarily solved the problem but now I'm back to intermittent 771. I hope the problem goes away as I'm not hopeful...
