Returning to DirecTV questions?
I am a former subscriber for approx. 10 yrs(Aug. 2008-April 2018).
They called the other day and offered me 2 gift cards (200 and 300 dollars) and free 2019 NFL Sunday Ticket plus the same plan I had previously plus the RSN's for 70 dollars a month(for the first year). OK-Now the questions(since it won't be installed for 2 more days). I have 4 TVs (3 Smart and 1 HD-TV). I am getting DirecTV Genie 2 plus DirecTV Wireless Genie Mini. Can you hook up the Genie 2 too the non-smart TV with HDMI line out(without a Roku even though using one might be the only other option)? Can you hook up the Wireless Genie Mini to a Smart TV? What about DVR recordings during storms? Is the recording feed coming from the dish or is it from streaming(so the recording won't be interrupted)? Since I also have 3 PC's will it be a problem to watch TV on all 7 devices(4 TVs and 3 PCs)? Over the past year has any app's been added? When I last had Direct TV they had an ESPN3 app(which was a disaster at the time) and do they still have it? |
Re: Returning to DirecTV questions?
That sounds like a scam. Are you sure it was them? Have you called the regular Dtv phone number to confirm it. |

To answer one question If it rains the feed probably will be interupted for a few minutes and even longer if it’s serious storm. |

I'm going from memory on most of this, so grain of salt and all...

Re: Returning to DirecTV questions?
ESPN 3 is still around.
I have ESPN + and when I look at the overall ESPN network's tv schedule ESPN 3 still has many televised sporting event's(mostly college basketball and football). In the past when I had DirecTV I avoided DVR recording's if there was going to be storms or heavy rain in the area. I am getting a replacement dish and was told that it will be stronger so I really don't know what that mean's. |
