    Resetting Genie - mini clients and that black screen

    I've only been a DirecTV customer for three weeks and had the Genie and two mini clients installed. As well documented here, I'm also having the black screen issues on my mini clients and have to reboot the HR-34 every few days. Most of the time is just unresponsive with a black screen or the...

    Do you reset your Genie every few days? Client becomes unresponsive at times

    Same here and I've only had Directv for a couple of weeks. Tried numerous things like simply resetting the box twice as mentioned here. Waiting for a software fix.

    BeIN Sports

    HI everyone, I'm considering switching from U-Verse to DIRECTV. Can those on DIRECTV confirm if BeIN Sports is still available in HD- channel 626. I remember looking back a month ago and DIRECTV clearly advertised the channel in HD, but now it appears only as a SD channel. Dish only has it...

    Slow Guide on 722K

    Just my 5 cents and another voice to this issue. This issue had been on and off for the last couple of months. Does appear to be a sw issue. Dish, please fix. It's very annoying when it takes 5-10 seconds for a channel change when using the channel guide and remote.

    Sling Adaptor Field Reviews

    I'm following up on my own post and I have to write that most of my problems have been rectified and I could not be happier. I know the sling products have been around for a while now but the SA really has been a work in progress since it's release this year. The only issue or possible bug...

    Sling Adaptor Problem

    OK, Solved. My error. I was logged in under DishOnline.com ( a beta site) rather than logging in the dish account directly and then the dish remote access log in. Everything works great.

    Sling Adaptor Problem

    The problem is not for my iPad or iPhone. I just cannot get my computer to show pre-recorded TV. It only shows 'live' TV no matter if I click a pre-recorded show or not. Can anyone help?

    Sling Adaptor Problem

    Thanks Dan. Yes. I tried that. It's always in dual mode anyway. This has not resolved the problem.

    Sling Adaptor Problem

    I installed my Dish Sling Adaptor for my 722 today and encountered a couple of problems. I can watch pre-recorded shows and 'live' TV fine on my iPhone but can only watch 'live' programming on my lap top and computer. Whenever I login to Dishonline and click a program from my DVR, all...

    OTA HD locals with 2nd TV

    No. I'm certainly not losing a signal and I'm in a fringe area for some of my channels.. I set this up tonight and works great. I also found this thread on our forums to be really helpful. The only change I had to do was to change the modulator from cable to air and set the modulator from ch 73...
