I've tried Chrome, Foxfire and Safari and none of them will work. Comcast streams fine as do other streaming sites. Have flash installed and up to date...

    New to Directv

    Just installed yesterday (Genie and 2 clients). Came from Comcast X1 DVR, left because of CRAZY price hike (was with Dish years ago when HD first came out). I have to say that compared to the X1, the Genie user interface is some what of a mess and very outdated. Hopefully since AT&T now owns it...

    Why Didn't Dish Put HD Camera on Sattellite?

    Seems like Dish missed one heck of an opportunity my not putting an HD or better camera on the satellite. The quality of the Dish earth channel really sucks at best.

    indy hd locals

    Does ANYONE know the real scoop on why Indy, who is ranked in the top 20 markets in the us) still has no HD Locals. I get it with an antenna, seems like weather effects the digital signal worse at times than analog. Come on dish. Give us Hoosiers some locals in HD:mad:

    What will Dish look like a Year from Now.

    I know that answering this question requires a lot of speculation and assumptions (ie, Sats going up and working as scheduled), but what do you think Dish will look like in a year?

    Troubleshooting question for Sony TV experts(KDL-46XBR4).

    Hi. Just purchased a KDL-46XBR4. Everything is great except for this one problem. Anytime I try to scan in channels, it will scan in analog (finds 22), then it starts to scan for digital signals. It makes it half way (finds 15), then the scan stops, the TV shuts itself down, turns itself back on...

    Will Dish ever go full resolution HD?

    I know this is all speculation since Charlie does what the heck he wants, but will Dish go full resolution on the HD signals when the new bird goes up? Is Direct running at full resolution now?

    Power Inserter Question

    I have a vip222 and two 322's with a DP44 Plus switch. The power inserter is on the line with the vip222. Is there any reason I couldn't put it in line with one of the 322's, or to hook it up directly to the switch on the empty output? Trouble shooting an issue with the vip222.

    HD RSN'S are a JOKE

    I don't get all of the hoopla going on about the HD RSN's, they seem to be a waste of good bandwidth to me. I've mentioned this before in a different thread, but the Midwest one has been up in Indiana about a month now, and I can honestly say I have not seen one thing on there. Nothing but...
