    Netflix App Who Would Like To See It To The Hopper

    Currently on dish pause and using a tivo Roamio. Sure I have rokus and chromecasts, but it is really cool to just be able to use the tivo remote to access Netflix and YouTube on the same tivo hdmi input. I was probably in the "I have other ways to access Netflix" camp, but the more services I...

    Ran out of money, can not afford DISH. Best options here?

    I'm currently on dish pause for a couple of reasons (moving soon, neighbor's tree now obstructing 129 satellite). I know it's probably heresy to say it but I'm currently using a Tivo Roamio that I bought for $150. I'm paying $15 a month for service, and $8 for Netflix. I'm also "borrowing" a few...

    Dish America Packs coming back?

    Yet they are missing many key HD channels that would find a no-go for many folks. I have Silver, so not bashing, just pointing out that the DA packs don't contain channels like FX, Fox News, BBC America, etc. Also, dish.com is down at the moment...wonder what they're working on...

    NEW DISH Pricing as of May 23, 2013

    Thanks Scherrman. So, $10 for one Hopper (only) before 5/22, and $12 for one Hopper (only) as of 5/22, even if we're existing (currently non-Hopper) customers?

    NEW DISH Pricing as of May 23, 2013

    So confused...All I currently have is one VIP622, and I'm considering replacing it with one Hopper w/Sling. Do I need to upgrade before 5/23 to have my DVR fee be $10? Thanks!

    Could you live with only a dozen channels?

    Easily, as long as I could also subscribe to HBO, Sho, etc. History Discovery Animal Science PBS MSNBC CNN ESPN2 Tennis HDNet

    Dual Hopper Intergration (From Team Summit)

    I think you're exactly wrong here. This is the opposite of integration for "normal" customers. What they demo'd for you is what "we" could cope with. "We" can conceptualize where our Hoppers are, where our Joeys are, and diagram it all out in our heads where we might have a conflict before...

    Joey Works Without Coax Cable?

    How has everyone's Joeys stability been in keeping the Joey linked to the Hopper via wireless? Anybody else experiencing link issues after the nightly reboot? If so, have you found a way to keep the Joey from delinking?

    Can Joeys communicate via Ethernet as opposed to cable

    Anyone with their Joeys connected only with ethernet/wireless (coax disconnected) having any issues getting their Joeys to stay linked to their Hopper? Nightly reboot seems to be de-linking my Joey. I know this is an unsupported setup, but any suggestions about preventing the de-link would be...

    Auto Hop Explained

    Why the decision to only offer this for PTAT? I Hope E* is eventually going to turn this feature on for any/all of our DVR'd recordings...

    Default favorites list My Channels is a feature not a bug. You've got to be kidding me!

    I vote that the receivers should stay on the list that they were last on before the daily/nightly update.

    I like the Hopper but It seems a little off???

    Should you be able to "start over" any of three things recording at the same time before they finish recording? Been having a problem with this. Unable to do anything other than to tune to any of the three. Can't start any from beginning. Can't rewind from "live". PTAT is disabled, by the way...

    QUESTION - What Bugs or Usability Issues do you have with your Hopper?

    He's tried that. He says there is no option to start from beginning from the DVR list. Also not sure why using rewind wouldn't allow someone to rewind to the beginning of the recording.

    QUESTION - What Bugs or Usability Issues do you have with your Hopper?

    I sorta prodded my friend into getting a Hopper/Joey cause he was thinking about it after me telling him about it. So far mostly so good, but one thing is driving him nuts: He says (and I haven't been to his house again to view this myself yet) that with PTAT disabled and recording three...
