Yes, but I understood that to be normal. Putting 4K into the projector over longer than normal cables is what I believe to be the main reason it takes about 90 seconds to fully lock picture & sound. Total length of HDMI from H3 (upstairs) to the input of the UHD Blu-ray player (basement) is 50'...

That's why I recorded some of Fridays game.

I recently installed a Sony VPL-VW 385 ES home theater projector & I decided to give Dish Network's 4K receiver, the Hopper 3, a try. As our theater is located some distance away from where the H3 is located I wasn't sure how our 50' long older HDMI cable would work. We rarely watch Dish Net in...

Watching one of the recent 4K NCAA Football games on my 55" Samsung isn't much different than 1080. I was not impressed. Maybe a slight color improvement but debatable if there's higher detail. But, I recently upgraded our home theater to a Sony 4K projector & just watched a 4K game on 102"...

Sorry, I'm not familiar with EHD. I believe most issues with H3 have been resolved & stable now with the latest updates. You can transfer your current recordings to H3 via a USB connected hard drive with sufficient memory for large files & your current Dish DVR has this capability. We have one...

Here's my Dish service rep most recent reply to this issue; "I apologize for the delay in answering. I was waiting to see if any additional situations popped up similar to yours. Unfortunately, there’s nothing else that can really be done considering what we have already done. We had...

It was worth a try. Seems like only a few experienced this so why didn't everyone have this issue?

Before channel 540 was cancelled it cutout several times. According to Dish, I'm the only one have this issue which I find hard to believe. When 540 was up I would check during the week several times to see if the sound but black picture reoccurred, & occasionally it did. Sometime it would...

My H3 is to be replaced. New one has been ordered & should be here mid-week. I hope this solves the issue.

Dish sent a tech out to check the sat dish to make sure it was aimed correctly. The guy said it was & left. Since then I've had 3 of these sound with dark screen. Two self reset & the other was just 10 minutes before last Saturday's broadcast of PE2.

Thanks Mark, I will. BTW, I don't have a Joey just an H3. Over the weekend I had the same issue 3x. The first was early Saturday before Planet Earth II was broadcast. The second & third times I was shocked to see H3 actually fixed itself. That's a first!

Hi Mark, thanks for responding. It's odd that my reporting to Dish Case manager Michael H is not on file. I have spoken to him several times about this over the last month since the BBC began this broadcast. And, I have made inquires on this site's Planet Earth II thread about this as well. As...

Hi everyone. I've been working to resolve an issue I have with my H3 with a Dish tech. The tech says he has not found any complaints such as mine & I thought I'd ask our forum members if they had a similar issue. During last summer's Olympics Dish offered free 4k on a dedicated channel but I...

My remote has a mute button so I have no problem with the "shameless hawking" of other BBCA shows. It's a small price to pay for 4k & the quality of the program. ;):D
