    Already have two large dogs that do that. Wish they had some kind of option, that would change my voice to Darth Vader when I use the Ring intercom.

    DishAnywhere app no audio w/ lightning adapter

    It's a copyright issue. Some apps that gave copyrighted material don't allow screen capture or audio over hdmi. So yes their answer was perfect.

    EchoStar/Dish raises doubts about 'ability to continue as a going concern'

    Just like our Firestick remotes. I recently got one of the new Firestick Pro remotes that have two programmable buttons and backlit buttons. Very handy...

    Can you link the doorbell to play a recording of the sound of a large dog racing to the door, barking and growling like mad? Maybe add some scratching at the door sounds, too?

    EchoStar/Dish raises doubts about 'ability to continue as a going concern'

    I assume he is referring to the other streaming services, like Paramount+, but I find them just as equally easy as YTTV ( when I had it). One remote, Roku Ultra, controls processor, TV, streaming, etc, etc.

    Being where I am in California and having a house that has a large roof facing south I also get lots of solar sales people. I look at my Nest doorbell camera and if I see it is one of them I simply ignore it.

    Better get Netflix for NFL on Xmas

    There are still plenty of subscribers for Netflix to go after, they have about 75 Million households in the United States ( out of 131 Million). The same answer for worldwide. not until 2025, most believe that will not happen, a lot of pushback from investors/share holders. Finite yes, but...

    EchoStar/Dish raises doubts about 'ability to continue as a going concern'

    How "seamless" do you want it? My wife just turned on the TV from her Firestick remote, selected YTTV Live, and scrolled through the channels until she found something she liked. If she knew what she wanted, she would have just pressed a button on the remote and asked it to find the program she...

    Fix problems with internet or TV with one easy step!

    Friends, a lot of times I tell you that the idea for an article came from one of our customers. This time, it came straight from my life. The other day I noticed that one room in my house had really poor internet performance. That room had a wireless access point in it, and obviously it had to...

    Better get Netflix for NFL on Xmas

    This is probably the most accurate statement in this entire thread. Americans LOVE to complain, but when it comes down to it, they will pony up. It's just a lousy game of chicken where you already know the subscriber will blink first, what is curious is WHY a service would want the NFL. For...

    Better get Netflix for NFL on Xmas

    Again I agree, but by 2029, almost all TV Programing will be via streaming, so I expect some laws to change before then. Considering all the Networks/Locals are trying to figure out how to monetize ATSC 3.0, advertising revenue is no longer enough to support free OTA , I would not count on it...

    I believe the majority that live in Florida were not born here. My brother moved to Maryland, my step brother to California, my step sister still lives in Michigan, as do all my cousins.

    Being in Florida, I get the Solar salespeople about once a week , I just tell them to go away with the Ring speaker, so tired of them knocking at my door.

    Better get Netflix for NFL on Xmas

    Ive always wondered how many people dont live in their old states anymore? Most people that I know 90% or more we not born in Arizona and came from someplace else. But this is a retirement state no doubt!

    Teardown video/photos of Hopper 3 or similar receivers

    Navy basically has it right. About the only recognizable devices under the hood are the hard drive and cooling fan, along with a bunch of chips and supporting resistors, capacitors, etc. Trying to trace out who does what is an exercise in futility lacking any schematics and appropriate chip...

    Better get Netflix for NFL on Xmas

    My takeaway from the comments on the article: People gripe and complain about games being streamed across multiple providers, but when it comes down to it they still pay up. The profit machine will keep grinding until people choose not to pay!

    At one time, Dish owned Dish One and used them as an outside sales force. They employ mostly college kids and sell other services too. DTV and I had too many ring my bell about the Solar rip-off. They were fine then but since they went back on their own, they've been terrible.

    Better get Netflix for NFL on Xmas

    I'll take my chance ;) Point is...RIGHT NOW, not 2029, not 2038, not next year if you live in the teams local market (where the stadium is located) you dont need any other option than OTA because right now law forces them to carry it on a local station.

    What happened to all the good universal remotes? Where can you get one?

    A decade or so ago, you could get a universal remote that set up via your PC and could be programmed to do exactly what you wanted. There were a number of them that worked well and weren’t that expensive. Go to find one today and they’re either super-inexpensive or super-expensive. They’re...

    I have had Dish 20ish years, and am mostly happy. BUT- be aware that they are losing programming so you want to be sure Dish will carry the shows you like. Both satcos are declining and we don’t know how long they will be around, or even if. If you are making a big change, I can’t help but...

    Need Information & Advice

    So the OP should do as I say, get everything in writing and confirm. Why are these salespeople so heinous to deal with, why does the companies allow it, do they believe the only way to get new subscribers is to lie, so that is why it is ok? I have read the DirecTV Salespeople at Costco were...
