| Comcast I-Guide? I see on the Program Guide you can go 90mins to see whats on. Is there any chace they will make so you can go maybe a few days ahead? On Dishnetwork you can go like a week ahead. |

| I think it depends on the Box you get. I have a DCT2000 and I can only see 3 or 4 days ahead and even then the last day or two there isn't any info, it's just the name of the program. |

1 edit | Cool thats great to hear! One more thing. Can you set it to change to any channel you want? Like If I leave it on espn when I go to sleep could I have it change to HBO at 1am? |

| Great it sounds Like Comcast has really improved there program Guide. I used Comcast about 2 years ago and I hated there program guide. Dishnetworks was so mush better. |

3 edits | Does comcast use the same boxes as they did about 2 years ago? I wonder which box I will get. I am getting 4 boxes and one of them will be DVR. Is the I-Guide out yet? DO you have to have an HDTV to use a DVR box? |
|
| I would highly recommend getting the 6412. It comes installed with the new guide.
No you you don't need to have a HDTV, with the 6412 you can view Digital channels on a regular TV.
There is a topic on this site about that. |

DO you have to have an HDTV to use a DVR box? Depends where you are. You want the 6412 for the DVR and DCT-2500 for the other 3 boxes. Don't accept a DCT-2000. |
