    Hopper 3 U543 released

    I posted this early November: "I'm a year into my Directv contract so it's time to consider switching back to Dish. My biggest problem with the Hopper 3 was how it maintained the view history of recorded content. With Directv when you switch off of recorded content either by switching to another...

    Hopper 3 Update

    Is there some email address for Dish that I can send to where they can confirm this issue has been solved? If I call, I'm sure they will say anything to get me to sign up. I'd rather have an email confirmation.

    Hopper 3 Update

    Like I said, this should be a very easy fix. It works perfectly on Directv. It's a bigger issue for me since I bounce around all over the place and turn off the TV in the middle of watching something often. I asked about this here before switching to Directv and was told I needed to hit some...

    Retention offer.

    Is there a better time of day and or day of the week to try and get the best deal? I'm looking to switch back from Dish. I have the email to get a $300 Visa card so far.

    Made the Switch ...

    Another issue I noticed. I have a 5 day a week live news show I record. Last night when the live show came on it was not recorded. When I looked at scheduling the show was grayed and lined out and gave the reason that it was either already recorded or would be recording later.

    That's more buttons to push when there is plenty room on the specific show listings page to add a delete all button.

    I tried hitting the pause button before switching and it didn't work. When I went back I had to start from the beginning.

    I'd rather not have to unnecessarily hit the pause button twice when the bottom of the screen can easily display the timeline when I hit the skip button. My time is valuable. :)

    Made the Switch ...

    ... from DTV to DISH. Overall I'm happier with DISH but there is something that is very annoying to me. With DTV anytime I exit a recording the DVR marks the exact point I stopped watching after switching to live or another recording. With the H3 it keeps on trucking after I switch. I did figure...

    Great because I want the wired version.

    DirecTV to Dish?

    I'm at the end of my DTV contract. I tried to stay by getting a Genie 2 and 5 4K wired mini Genies. The installer showed up with 5 wireless mini Genies and let me know that I had to have 5 4K TVs to get 5 4K mini Genies. I only have one 4K TV but plan on getting more within my 2-year commitment...

    Arghhh, I am so frustrated with the H3 timers situation

    My Directv contract is up and I really want to switch to Dish but this problem would annoy the hell out of me.

    Stick with Directv?

    I ended up sticking with Directv with a 1 year contract at $50 off/month. When a new receiver comes out I will decide if I want to do a 2 year contract to get the new equipment.
