    Hopper Plus Reports Good/Bad

    I have a Samsung QDOLED and Hopper plus throws it into 4K HDR mode. Non-HDR TV looks like crap and there is no way to change the setting on the Hopper nor on the Android TV. I had to take the Plus box out of the system and restore to standard Dish Network. Now I have a 3 year commitment with...

    Hopper Plus / Joey 4 users check in here!

    Got the Hopper plus today. Noticed the following issues so far: 1. Lost PIP and multiscreen. Use to be able to flip between two channels (tuners) by using the input button. No longer works. 2. Forces my Samsung QD OLED TV into 4k HDR mode. No way to change it. Image and color are a mess...

    new software update S322 on hopper 3 this morning

    The updates have been makings things worse. Each update has caused more channels going black. Guide and menus display but no video. I have to reset the damn box and it works for awhile. Having to reset 4 or 5 times a day is unacceptable. I did not know the Hopper3 was still in beta. And...

    Hopper 3 running on a UPS

    I have my H3, AV Receiver and 55 inch LG TV all on a UPS. Where I live power outages and brownouts are common. The advantage of the UPS over a surge suppressor is the UPS will protect against brownouts (where the power level drops below 110/120V). I also get about 1 hour of viewing with the...

    Called in on Thurs. Feb 4 and was told the tech would be out Fri Feb 5 between 12 and 5pm. I had taken the day off for this install. I did not hear anything from Dish or the Tech by 2pm so I called Dish. I was told there was no appointment for me. And there was nothing in my records...

    HR34 vs. HR44

    Yes, I have had an issue with the 34 from the time I got it. Stations would pixilate and freeze. All was resolved except for my local NBC channel. They replaced the LNB, the 34 with another 34 and still had the issue. The client would freeze up on the NBC channel after 5 seconds. Change to...

    HR2x CE Release 5/8 x0309

    Comments on MRV. I have an HR21-700 and 22-100 connected via Linksys Powerline Adapter (200mbs). I notice that when opening the list for the other receiver (doesn't matter which one) the list is slow to open folders. Also if you have multiple folders and open say the third one, the system...

    Check your HD DVR's ToDo list--Forced Software Upgrade to 02CB & 02B0

    Lost To-Do I noticed that when I set a show that was wiped out, to record it give the series record icon with just one press of record. As such, the system must have kept the info somewhere to know that it is a series recording.
