    Great, a whole day before the free preview expires. Thanks Directv, and thanks to all of you who broke my balls over this.
  2. DIRECTV General Discussion
    I'm sure you can always find an obscure scenario to disprove my point. And no, I was comparing my griping about not getting a "free" preview with peds reaction if his hypothetical kid was deprived of his "free" toy, not the kid himself.
  3. DIRECTV General Discussion
    I know you weren't.
  4. DIRECTV General Discussion
    Yeah, you know where you can stick your thumb, peds. What joshjr said. The PURPOSE of the FREE PREVIEW is to entice people to sign up for MLB EI, is it NOT? Plus their commercial specifically mentions the Mix channel! Renbutler, I have Choice Extra but it doesn't matter. Even if you're only...

    No, it's their yearly free promotion. They do it at the beginning of the season and after the All Star Break, sometimes towards the end of the season. Everybody is supposed to be able to get it. It makes it a lot easier to find what channels the games are on. You can see the Reds on the Mix...

    You think you're speechless? This forum delete my response to you. Now THAT's speechless.
  7. DIRECTV General Discussion
    You know, Directv, you really blew it with this MLB EI free preview. Still no MLB Mix channel three days into it. You should really consider extending the preview. It's been worthless up until now.
  8. DIRECTV General Discussion
    No, I was serious! I already deleted it and added my town.

    Same here, but since I live in N.C. and only see the Yanks when they play the Orioles, the scoreguide comes in handy when I want to check the score real quick and I don't have my phone nearby.
  10. DIRECTV General Discussion
    You know, Laxguy, I spoke too soon. I didn't realize they got rid of the "store", and now have only Scoreguide, Weather and the two I'll never use, Social and What's Hot. Yes, they are in HD, and the score guide graphics are the ones I saw the other day that I said were updated. Why I got that...

    Anywhere from three innings off to still showing that the game hasn't started, even after the game ends. Plus a lot of times they won't even load because of non-existent network connection errors or whatever. I'm better off letting my MLB At Bat app alert me. That's usually a few seconds behind.
  12. DIRECTV General Discussion
    That TV app scoreguide isn't updated in any kind of timely fashion whatsoever.

    The mini has no moving parts. It's just a wireless remote control "base" for the Genie, so to speak. There is one difference between the clients and the Genie as far as the remote. You can't do PIP on the tv's that have the clients.
  14. DIRECTV General Discussion
    This thing is silent, believe me. You can reboot from the Genie to reset the system, even for when the clients mess up. You can reset the clients as well, but usually any problems with the clients are caused by the Genie so you may as well reset from there.
  15. DIRECTV General Discussion
    I've found the TV apps to be so completely useless that I haven't looked at them in months.
  16. DIRECTV General Discussion
    HR-44. Don't know which software version but it was last updated this past Wednesday. And Score Guide is back to the new graphics again. And MLB EI Free Preview is finally on as well.
  17. DIRECTV General Discussion
    Still not on as of 1:30 p.m. edt
  18. DIRECTV General Discussion
    I just noticed this morning that you no longer get that annoying banner notification on how to record a program every time you change the channel. I also noticed that ScoreGuide had it's graphics updated, but only for one day. It's back to the low tech look it's had for the past few years. The...

    1. The mini-genies are just little boxes almost as small as a pack of cigarettes. All recording is done on the Genie. 2. I also have internet and phone with my cable company. Internet connection is done through wi-fi. 3. No, you can see the list of all recorded programs from any tv. 4. No...
  20. DIRECTV General Discussion
    ok, just got off the phone with Mike. No solution yet, but Mike said he would post updates here. Weird, huh? Amazingly, (and it's not Mike's fault), but Directv acted like they had no idea they were giving a free preview this week. (The banner advertising it in the guide is no longer there!)...
