Direct TV’s “On Demand” now available nationwide

Started by Mike Olbinski · 1 year ago

I’ve been using the new On Demand feature from Direct TV for awhile now, but chances are some of you haven’t had the access yet.
Well that problem should be gone now. Engadget is reporting that it’s now available across the country, with new features coming soon, like internet remote scheduling, etc.

its my understanding that DirectV's equipment is the worst to get to work for this, that you should use another box to get this to work seemlessly... which do you have theirs or someone elses?

Too many words - where are the pictures? Don't they have this in graphic novel format?

they had a picture of a guy giving the middle finger to cable, but they pulled the picture and diagram of it...

It's probably for the best that it is not in graphic novel format, because if it was I'm sure Hollywood would attempt to make a movie out of it.

Actually if you have a DVR, press menu and Indemand option, in que you will have a little movie about it all... its only 5 min, and it was tyhe first thing the writers got to getther and wrote once the strike ended... its a cute little film...

Its like a menu of tv shows and movies you pick from. its like pay perview but no addtl pay, and its a library of movies or show you choose, they then download to your dvr and you watch them when its done...

Wouldn't it be nice if my DVR had wireless capability? As opposed to requiring another device. Now that would be nice.

Yeah but then they cant get you to buy their extra box I say you need that Mo doesnt...

reply

Well, even MO says you need something more, in this case the a router, etc. My question is why? Isn't it enough there getting my $350 for NFL Sunday ticket?

I'm not saying you NEED more, you just need to hook it up to your home network. If you have it close by, then you just plug it in.

If you don't, then you need to do more.

I guess if they did it over the satellite, that would be easier, but I don't think they have the bandwidth for all that.

It's really not THEIR fault for this...it's something the offer for free, if you want to use it, you gotta hook it up to the net.
