Cowboys and HDTV question

[silverbear]

Interesting, they have seperate DirectV and HD recievers built in, so that it can work without DirecTV, that would make more sense. Speaking of JBL recievers, I bought them, 7-8 years ago, before they became a big hit, for $199, the small 5.1. Man they work Awesome, as good as Bose speakers IMO.

RCA builts good TVs, although reputation wasn't such. I prefer Sony though, since mostly I have always bought their products.

Our tastes seem to be rather similar when it comes to electronics... Bose and Sony are high on my list, obviously JBL is as well...

I also really like Infinity speakers, that's what I have on the system back in my bedroom (which is a hodgepodge of different makes, JVC and Infinity and Akai and RCA)...

I live in south texas. Call directv, ask for the HDTV department. Then tell them to contact the local Fox affiliate in your area (who does not broadcast in HD format) to ask for a waiver. It will get done within a few weeks. Then Directv will tell you whether the waiver was granted or not. If it was, then contact Directv again and they will give you access to either the east coast or west coast fox affiliate. This will get you HD games that are on Fox (probably out of NY). Then you can see nationally televised cowboy games (and local giants-cowboys games). It is standard procedure for them. This will get it done.

I'm looking to get a HDTV in the next couple of weeks and have signed up with Timer Warner here in austin. Will all games be shown in HD here?

From what I remember when watching at a my bros place on his HD, that most of them were...mainly the national broadcast games on Fox.

I would go ahead and call anyway to be sure exactly how many or what it takes for a game to be on HD here.

I know I was disappointed that many college games on ABC were not broadcast in HD. For the life of me I have no idea why the opted not to broadcast Texas at Ohio State in HD.

Nice buy, dude. Sony has some seriously good video products anyway, but the WEGA line was impressive even before HD was available. I imagine the HD WEGA is an outstanding product.

Have you tweaked the display settings yet? Let me know how that goes. I lowered the contrast and raised the brightness.
