What about timers? If I have a movie set to record between, say, 12:30 am and 2 am, and I am using the new H3, will the new software update pop on at 1 am and ruin my recording? With the 622 I have now, the software update trumps my timer setting and I lose my recording, but that's not a...

Dish dropped EuroChannel in mid-August and it was reported at the time. I liked the channel and was sorry to see it go. It was not HD however.

Eurochannel was removed several weeks ago. I liked that channel, even though it wasn't HD.

Well, they've got me as a customer for as long as they're in business, thanks to the 10-12 TB I have stored on my EHD's. I have gotten to the point where I watch more saved content from EHD's than I do from Netflix and Dish combined. In fact, I haven't watched Netflix in several months, and...

The short answer to your question is that it's about history, culture, food, lifestyle, and entertainment, with all programming originating from the French-speaking world. Daytime is news, kids\'s shows, sports (rugby and soccer), with no subtitles. Nights are movies, mostly with English...

I am flabbergasted! This is my favorite channel, and I had resigned myself to watching it in SD forever. Now, here it is in beautiful HD on channel 9666 (the old SD channel was 9857).. For those who have never watched TV5, it is a 24-hour French language station that consolidates material...

I was watching TV5 Monde last night when it suddenly went black, around midnight; and all I got afterwards was a message that DISH was working on the problem and there was nothing to worry about. This morning I found this on the news...

I'm very pleased to have TCM back again. My thanks to the people on this Forum who have been keeping track of events and reporting back to the rest of us.

I don't care one whit about the cost differences between Dish and DirecTV; in fact, in the short run, I don't care what happens, because I have plenty of TCM stuff archived on EHD that I can watch. Long term, if Charlie carries out his threat to drop Turner "for ever", I will have to choose...

Exactly where I'm at. I watch(ed) TCM more than any other single channel, Turner or otherwise, and now fortunately I have my EHD's to fall back on. And some of the movies I recorded from TCM are ones I haven't seen yet.

Please add TV5 Monde to the list. It is available in HD. Citation: http://www.rapidtvnews.com/index.php /2014021932385/tv5monde-turns-to-hd.html It is a la carte (I am paying $10 per month for it) and on a separate satellite (international) from the other channels on your list. TV5 is...

I am almost relieved. I have held onto my 622 despite all the nifty features in the hopper. It was hard, because I really wanted to buy a hopper, but I have noticed before that the EHD interface on DISH products is more prone to bugs than the other features and I suspected something like this...

Dave, thanks for starting this thread. I noticed the same problem on my 622 this morning, after returning from a 2-week vacation, and then found your thread containing a solution that appears to fix it. Neat!

I can still get into my BB@Home queue. My queued titles are still there (all 7 of them). It shows that I have no discs at home, so the Criterion disc I received Tuesday (Ballad of Narayama) was indeed a gift. I go directly to this url: http://www.blockbuster.com/browse/queuemgmt/fullQueue

I checked the 'rent or buy' option for each of the 7 titles left in my queue, and oddly enough, none of them are available to buy. You'd think that if they were shutting down the rental side, they'd have a closeout sale. I certainly would buy a few titles, at least $120 worth (the amount I'll...
