Hmm. The problem is I am 'getting' directv as part of a park wide roll out for my condo association. I am paying for it whether I like it or not and my old TV service will be shut off. They will provide a 'free' SD receiver or a 'free' HD receiver. To get the HD one I have to contract for a year of upgraded HD service at an additional $10 a month. Yes that is $120 per year which is more than the cost of the box by itself (according to most online sales places) sold new. more
Guess I'll just have to make due with the crappy receiver. more
No, you cannot buy a new receiver and swap your old card into it. Yes, you can buy a new receiver and buy a new card for it (something like $20).
Beware of buying receivers on ebay and anywhere. Most people lease receivers and don't have the rights to sell them. DIRECTV will not activate a card for a leased box that is not with the original customer. If in doubt, you can call DIRECTV and ask for the Access Card department, check that the box is legit and disconnected correctly.
If you’re planning a 4K upgrade, you need to know if your current TV will support it. Many new 4K TVs are “DIRECTV 4K ready,” meaning that connecting them to your existing coax cable network will let you watch DIRECTV’s 4K programs. If you have a Smart TV from LG, Samsung or Sony, this chart will help determine if your set is 4K compatible. more
Not all Smart TVs are 4K-ready. The DIRECTV 4K Genie Mini Client solves this issue. When used in conjunction with the DIRECTV HR54 Genie DVR, the Mini Client delivers 4K, HD, and SD content to a 4K TV. If your Smart TV isn’t 4K-ready, upgrade it with the Genie Mini Client from Signal Connect. High-definition 4K programming requires a HDMI port that supports HDMI 2.0a and HDCP 2.2. You also need a high-speed HDMI cable to make the connection. Some Smart TVs already can handle the 4K signal. more
If you want 4K programming, you need the DIRECTV HR54 Genie DVR or DIRECTV HS17 Genie 2 Server, along with a 4K DIRECTV Genie Mini Client or DIRECTV 4K Ready TV. Older equipment can’t see or record 4K programs. This equipment also allows you to record up to seven shows at once, then enjoy them in any room. When you add 4K programming to your satellite system, you have the best that DIRECTV has to offer!
Upgrading to DIRECTV 4K is something for only the most serious do-it-yourselfer. Or is it? If 4K programming is in your future, Signal Connect can save you some time. We’re a DIRECTV Authorized Dealer, so we know all about this conversion. Here are some helpful 4K conversion tips courtesy of Signal Connect.
