Question: got it installed today...like it so far...butttttttt dish had a feature where i could type in the name of a show/movie and search the guide for it instead of just scrolling through day by day. it's great for movies, in particular. i'm not seeing that so far...am i missing something? also...what website do i go to in order to program dvr from online??
I ordered Uverse today, but I have to wait a couple weeks for install though. I am so ready to leave comcast.
Click on Menu, than go down to search. You have to log into your yahoo AT&t account to access the dvr online thing.
If I would have known the speeds of the internet for torrents I would have done this a year ago. Over 1.5 MB DL at all times. So nice.
Anyone has experience with FoxSports-HD with Dish TurboHD or any of their HD package? Any problem with games that go overtime? How does non-HD games look on the HD FoxSportSW channel? Do they still broadcast the channel in HD format (and so you may get black borders on the left & right side) if the game is not in HD or do they go back to SD format (480i)?
When I bought my house I went with Uverse, now whenever I am forced to watch Comcast I feel like I've stepped back in time/technology. That's weird because when I first got Uverse I missed my cable, now that Uverse totalhome and the ability to watch/record more than one HD show are available there is no going back, Uverse is superior technology.
Just in case a U-verse owner doesn't know this, I had to call U-verse Support to get my second HD stream added. It didn't cost anything to upgrade, but it was not given to me at set up.
Isn't it a great feeling to not have to deal with Comcast anymore? I can't wait to watch them scramble in about 12 months when they realize how many people have left them. Every person I know that has them is talking about switching to ATT (if it's available) or has done so already
i've made the switch! but no installation until Nov. 1st. i'll be paying a few bucks more than with comcast, but the xtra features AND HD channels should be well worth it. **** you comcast!
10 down, 1.5 up for $55.00 a month. I couldn't even get those speeds with Comcast at $59.99 a month. I am BEYOND happy that I made the switch and now lol at any and all Comcast commercials. It's pure crap compared to U-Verse. I wish I would have made this change a year ago. I have so many channels I have no idea what to watch anymore. The only problem I have is with the TV in my den. I cannot for the life of me figure out how to fix the screen to fit the TV. I have a 50" wide screen and when in HD I am unable to read the score scroll bars on ESPN and when I try to schedule recordings I can't read the channels. I have to put the settings on 720i in able to read/see everything.
that's wierd, it must be your settings. set your widescreen to FULL mode. the resolution has nothing to do with it. the TV usually has a bunch of screen modes. its better to use the cable box. I know you can change the screen mode by pressing the # button on a scientific atlanta box
Yeah, the # button just makes it worse. I'll try the "full" mode this evening. It's been driving me nuts as are the sound settings. When they connected my TV's to their remotes I have to crank the TV or surround sound on most channels to hear them. I've already scheduled an appointment with a tech to fix, but that's a week away.
