    What the heck! Anyone else not have the Packers- Cardinals game record? "This showing was canceled because of a programming update. (13)" what does that mean? Not the first time that has happened. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

    I would think IF more and more RSN's are going to do 4k broadcasts, your going to have multiple games going on at the same time. Just seems more efficient to have an extra 4k channel for each RSN that is doing 4k programming. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

    Couldn't DirecTV just make an alternate channel for NBC Sports Chicago just for 4k games like 665-2? . Seems like it would make things easier as far as knowing what games are blacked out for everyone else.. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

    Premier package customer for 16 years. Had a second account at another house I owned that my mother lived in. After two year promotion was up, she decided it wasn't worth the money, so I made sure It cancelled on the exact 2 year anniversary date. A month later I get a bill for $0.01. I laughed...

    Maybe there will be some White Sox games in 4k this season? Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

    DirecTV hasn't updated their mlb coverage areas yet. I would wait until Marquee network is up and running on the 22nd. If mlb.tv says your in the cubs viewing area and you don't live in the chicago market, you'll probably have to get sports pack. What state do you live in? Sent from my SM-G950U...

    I've never had sports pack, but aren't the pre and postgame shows blacked out also? Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

    It depends on where you live. If you live in the Cubs designated market you have to subscribe to sports pack to view games. If not , you have to subscribe to MLB.TV or MLB EI to see the games. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

    Customer since 2002. Called in yesterday after my 1 year commitment for fiber internet upgrade expired. $60 off a month for 1 year, no commitment. Also asked about 4k upgrade, they waived the $49 installation charge, also no charge for receiver upgrade with a 2 year commitment. Very satisfied...

    I have been trying out yttv for a couple of days now. My first reaction was the pq on YTTV was much worse than dtv, but after adjusting the settings on my TV they seem pretty close, but I still think dtv pq is better. Maybe it's just because I am used to the dtv picture. Sent from my LG-H871...

    Every 2 years I call to get a discount, my last one is expiring in a few days. This time I think I will just downgrade a package and maybe get rid of a reciever I don't use that much. Going to take a wait and see approach and make any decisions at the end of next year. Sent from my LG-H871...

    Its just unusual that it downloaded so late in the morning then rebooted again that evening with no new software. And happened to others at 6-7 pm. Sent from my LG-H871 using Tapatalk

    Anyone know what's going on in the chicagoland area with the genies. My hr44-500 downloaded software 0xd8f at 6:50 am which I thought was unusual. Then later in the day I noticed my guide had not fully repopulate almost 8 hours later. Shut genie off and it rebooted on its own immediately. Went...

    Kind of shady how they slipped this one in. No notice, can't remove from package, even though it's a separate charge like a receiver or a premium channel. Going to have to call and get some discounts now. Not happy.

    I left both unplugged overnight, but that didn't seem to help. Noticed today the fan on left side of hr23 clicks, but doesn't spin. I've tried just about everything. I am beginning to think I'm just out of luck, I think it's just fried.

    the hr23 power cord plugs into the am21 which powers the hr23, no separate plugs for each. plugged into good power source.

    Fell asleep watching ota on am21, dvr shut off from power saving function, now I can't get the hr23 to power back on. Tried to do reset, disconnected am21 from dvr, switched boxes from different location, still can't get hr23 to power on. Running out of ideas. Help!

    Call 1-800-ASK-USPS and file a lost mail report and give them the scan #'s, description of box/receiver and serial #of the receiver in case box was damaged at the post office. USPS hands off the box to Fed-Ex, who do the final shipping, so you might have to do the same with Fed-Ex.

    U-verse pq is horrible, especially sports. I tried it for 30 days and I spent hours each day trying to get the picture to look like D*. Most of ny neighbors have U-verse and say they love the picture, but I still think it looks bad, or, not as good as D*. Maybe I'm just an HD snob?
