Is this all I need for my flat screen tv with Directv basic, and does it come with directions?

This is an a/b switch for switching between my analog and digital signal. It does come with instructions but doesn't quite work the way I want it to. I have to keep reprogramming tv each time I make the switch between the two signals.

Yes they come with directions. I have two antennas connected to this switch. That way I can switch between the antennas with a push of a button. So, if your wanting to switch between DTV and and an over the air antenna I see so reason why this wouldn't work for you.

Of course you require an HDMI input on your TV and an HDMI output from your Direct basic and eppropriate cables.I use the remote control so that AppleTV shares the HDMI input with a DVR.Joe Maltz

I believe the person above answered this question correctly. It comes with directions, we followed them, and it works great!

i do not have direct TV, it worked with all my remotes so far, including the AC remote.

I don't really remember for sure but I think it did not. I believe I had to go on the web for some basic information. It's a pretty simple device if you have the correct audio connections on your TV. Still working well for me.

No, mine setup only uses dish. I believe you can buy a model just for direct TV.

I have bought this unit, but not installed yet. I contacted Directv, and they will have an installer come to the RV site and set-up. It costs nothing, and I am bringing my receiver from home.

Everything you need to receive Standard DirecTV at your RV.-The hardest part is "pointing" your disk to the south for reception. Takes a while to get use to how to do that. Look up the coordinates of your campground for DirecTV signal. They are on the internet. Then point to those coordinates then tweak until you get the reception you want.-This dish is for standard DirecTV reception and NOT (HD) High Definition Cable. Works regardless but you will not be able to get HD channels. Those dishes are considerably higher and hard to find.-You will still get hundreds of standard channels based on your package you bought with the service.-Excellent product once setup.

I have the 50 inch version of this TV. There is an onscreen guide but mine is limited to my tv provider directv. It will detect your service and download that guide. Not sure why you need it as you can just use the guide on your receiver.

you get them through your directv box. Go to menu on new remote and program remote. Its pretty self explanatory after that. Follow the directions.

Yes. Its very easy just hook the HDMI cable to your TV and hook the Directv cable to the box and plug it in. You will need to call Directv to get it authorized before it can be used. It does cost the extra set fee per month, but it doesn't use a slot on your Directv box.

Thanks N. Singh. Glad to hear about the standard def direct TV box. Still puzzled why the 910 will upconvert the TV signal (both audio and video) coming in via component but only the video and not the audio signal from the DVD player also coming in via component.

Just attatch it to your TV and power and your good to go.it will give you step by step instructions on the rest.

First off, yes you can connect your Directtv. It has an HDMI input, s-video, component, and Usb inputs. Anything that outputs with those methods will work. It DOES NOT have a built in tuner. So you would simply run an HDMI cable from your Directtv unit. That's it. It does not have audio, so you would still need to have your audio from the Directtv running to a sound bar or other audio source, which you may already have. Hopefully this helps.

Try asking your question at http://www.dbstalk.com/forum/54-directv-installationmdu-discussion/ I think you may need to provide some more details. Good luck!

Yes, it comes with installation instructions, but as I remember, they are not very detailed. It's completely assembled, so all you really have to do is attach the slider with screws, and then figure out a way to attach the TV to the slider. I used hot melt glue rather than drill holes in the TV base. It was pretty easy to install. Less than 15 minutes once you figure out where to put it.

All newer flat screen televisions are capable of receiving Air, Cable, HDMI, ColorStreamHD, Video and PC. For basic cable channels you don't need a converter or interface with the cable company. You use their box to view non basic channels, get a channel menu, pay channels or as a digital recorder to play something back a a later date. A digital over the air antenna has nothing to do with cable. If you are using their converter box for HDMI, you can also hook up a digital antenna for local stations and switch back and forth from cable to antenna. But you don't need that antenna for cable nor will the antenna replace cable, They are two different things. I hope this helps. Have a great day!
