For those lucky people who already have the new guide, I was wondering if you could post what receiver you have and what location you are in. I have a h23-600 and a h21-100R in tulsa and would like to know if anyone with either of these two receivers have received the update yet.

For those who switched from Directv to Directv Stream

Are those of you who made the switch happy? I've been considering it for some time, mostly because the lack of rain fade, and on some channels, such as CNN international, Logo, CSpans, the picture is in HD, whereas those channels are SD only on satellite.    Also, use of apps instead of

MAKE THOSE ADS GO AWAY!

Today, for no apparent reason, whenever I hit “pause” on a program that I’ve DVR-ed, the screen promptly switches to ads for this ridiculous “Currently” thing. I didn’t ask to have these ads popping up, I don’t want to see them, and I want them to go away.  Does anyone have any tips on how to

I recently had a new sat system installed at my rental address. I had to tell the inexperienced tech how to run the new wiring into the house. He claimed that a new hole had to be drilled into the wall from the outside. I then insisted that the wire could be run through the same hole as the previous

Asking those experienced with "Searching for Satellite"

I've read every sticky and every relevant thread here, but I'm still not sure about the best course of action. I've spent five days devouring all the web info on the topic, but I thought I'd ask here directly before I do anything. I have no service contract of any kind with DirecTV and I hate to spe

Accounts credited when showing channels for free when you already have those channels and maybe lose KHOU.

Why does DIRECTV/ATT not give credit to accounts that already pay to have the channels when they are shown for free. Good example is this past Thanksgiving for 11/26/20 thru 11/29/20 for those 4 days.  You should give customers that already pay for those channels when they are free a credit on

There has to be a way to turn these things off! Tonight I've run into both of the fundamental flaws in this system.  Earlier tonight, I saw an alert pop up and I scrambled for the remote knowing that if I didn't exit it fast I was going to have some upset dogs and got blasted with the way out of pro

Are you talking about the "continue watching" list? If so, you cannot delete those. Those disappear when you have fully watched each episode.

How to delete in Sync shows

How does someone delete shows that were migrated or show "in Sync" when service was initiated from ATT Uverse? There is no option found for delete?  I have yet to find the delete/trash bin at the end of episodes.  I hope they aren't there forever!  LOL.
