Thanks, Scott! Good information. I wondered how nervous James Wilde was in having to do a live demo of voice search. ;) "activate nap mode" "activate NAP mode" "ACTIVATE. NAP. MO..." Son of a... <walks over to devices to manually activate nap mode>

One frustration for me when using the Dish Anywhere app on my Android tablet is an annoying message I get periodically when opening a good, transferred recording. "The license is not available to play this video." I only use DA when traveling so I don't use it all the time. The message drove me...

**UPDATE** In case anyone finds this post. I thought that the Hopper will keep the prepared files until the recording is finally deleted. I guess not. Did not notice the little down arrow icon which means you can transfer immediately as it has been processed on the Hopper. If no icon then there...

Around March of last year I was getting ready for some business travel and wanted to put some recordings on my DA app (Android). Have don't this many times. I must have had the 'prepare for mobile' OFF on the H3 as I saw that the selected items went to the dreaded waiting to prepare... step. I...

Thank you both. I did not know if the Atmos data was just that. Data as part of the audio channel. Or if Dish had to build in any sort of capability to pass or handle that. Actually, was looking at the baby brother to the 950, the 850. I don't need the surround for the family room and the 850...

I searched the forums and did not really find an answer. I am looking to add a soundbar to my family room Sony 4K TV and H3 setup. I am particular about audio and many of the "affordable" soundbars I heard sound bad or the voice component sounds like someone talking in a tin can. I see there are...

Agree with HIFI. I have a wireless Joey that I don't use all the time and don't want to keep having to remember to turn the access point on when using. So I have the ethernet connected directly and no WAP. Works like a champ for me.

I also proposed a long time ago that they should use one of those unused tuners active and buffering for at least 15 seconds AFTER someone turns off the hopper. We all know the Hopper never really shuts off so this should have been a no-brainer implemented at H3 launch. The user benefit is that...

...and if you ever do get to Vegas for CES or any other reason and are a car guy, check out the Petty Experience for muscle cars. Take the extra vacation day. They have them for stock cars and "dream" cars as well. The muscle car one is pretty affordable and I believe is only at the Las Vegas...

Last one. Weird sh*t: For those fans of the TV show Person of Interest. It's happening: (not-so) Future purchase for many of us here: When hearing loss is not a worry of yours: Cheerleading. Need I say more? Not at the show, but saw this driving down Las Vegas Blvd. Wonder how much...

Part III Personal/Home: No longer will we have a "dumb" bedroom: Get your DJ on. Love the booty checking look on the girl in the green dress: Grow your own food...or whatever: Record the girls at the beach when you stare at them: A smart vinyl record?? Blasphemy. Sleep pods for...

Part II. Robots: One would think we as humans are doomed a lot faster than we ever imagined with all these sweet to just plain scary robots we are creating to replace us. These buggers are just the smaller versions of the ones that will take over. Here doing their victory dance...

Some more show pics but so many vendors it was crazy. Show gets bigger every year. Pretty much too big now. Show floor: Only a small sample. I defy anyone to walk the show for a full 3 or 4 days and NOT be ready to chop their legs or feet off from the pain of walking so much! Infinity (almost)...

Drones had a huge presence here. Including this company and their $10k monster capable of lifting a small child. And this model was their middle option with one larger. Maybe that can lift two small children??

Need antennas? They got antennas.
