    Lost Signal on Hopper W/Sling

    Since the latest software update I've seen this screen randomly when trying to watch or record programs on ESPN, Starz, and my local CBS channel. When I hit the red button to see what tuners are available, the tuner with this screen says lost signal. If I'm not recording anything and can...

    Free iPad For Referrals?

    I knew you would get 5$ a month off your bill for a period of time if someone you referred signed up. I didn’t know that if three of them got the Hopper you would get a free iPad 2, until I picked it up from Fedex today.

    External Hard Drive Issue With Hopper

    Since the Hopper was installed on Thursday I can't watch certain recorded programs on my EHD. I can watch programs that were recorded from my local networks, but not anything I recorded from HBO, Lifetime, USA Etc. I get a message that the hard drive is being prepared for use and then it tells...

    NBA League Pass Help!

    I just had a Hopper installed and now my LP channels are missing. On the VIP922 they were in the 560-572 range. On the Hopper it looks like the start at 470, but I'm only getting 470-02 and the technical support person says that all I should get? I need help from a DIRT rep!

    Timers Duplicating

    I tried to set up a new timer this morning and I got the message that I'd reached the maximum, so I went in to see if I could delete one. Looks like I can delete more than one. It's like this all the way to timers 95&96 and then it just keeps repeating the same info. I did a soft and hard...

    Problems With 922 Since Update To S117

    1. Home Media tile no longer works. I get a black screen with a cursor when trying to access it. 2. Can't switch between solo/duo mode. It asks me if I want to and I've responded with yes and no, but it's still stuck in duo mode. I can't swap tuners and no PIP. The first time I noticed...

    Account Access Problems

    I've had a problem logging into my account for years, but until now it hasn't been an issue. I can log in and can look at everything except "My Programming", that's grayed out. The problem is that is where I need to go to set up the Blockbuster Movie Pass. If I try to register I get this...

    922 Can See More Than One EHD!

    My son got me a 2TB drive for Christmas and I connected it to the front USB and formatted it. Works great. I also had an older 750GB drive connected to the back and it sees them both. Has anyone tried using a hub to see if that works? One disappointment was that you can't transfer from one...

    iPhone SlingPlayer App

    When I was beta testing I was able to use this even though the 922 was not on my account. Now that I have a 922 on my account I can use the Dish app, but not the SlingPlayer app. I'm also able to use Dish Remote Access from my PC to access the 922. Does this work for anyone else and if so...

    Lost AAD HD Networks From Chicago & LA

    Last night around 10:30PM I lost all of my AAD HD channels, I forgot to check this morning to see if they returned. I did a sampling of other channels and didn't have any problems. I haven't canceled them and just received a renewal notice. Did anyone else have issues with them last night?

    New Version APX1

    Just got back in town and noticed a new version. I now have an internet connection on the 922, but haven't been acle to connect with Sling yet. I was able to connect to the internet and it now comes up with an info screen to explain the controls on the 922 when browsing.

    New Version APV1

    They've added a Sling option under system settings, it allows you to set the output to SD or HD. Unfortunately I can't connect to the internet now. I'm able to connect with my other receivers, just not the 922.

    Got a Credit From Dish

    Called to subscribe to the NBA League Pass and without asking she gave me $20 off for the next three months. Since I already have AEP I didn't have to add any other programming.

    Updated iPhone App and 922

    I was able to connect to the 922 with the recent update. I connected at home and from work. Not sure what speed I need, but the resolution isn't as crisp as I would have expected. It is viewable I just expect it to be better. My home speed is 3M/512.

    AAD Renewal Notice For HD

    I signed up for a three month trial two months ago and got all four networks for both cities. At the time it was a buy two months get the third free, so the cost was $99.96 for three months. It looks like that's still the case on my renewal notice. That's less that what the web site has listed...

    Observations: Things That Don't Work

    The external hard drive function doesn't appear to be enabled. Installed an OTA module(MT2) and can't access the local channels menu. On Demand. I briefly got a list of items just added, but then was kicked back to the channel I was on. Any attempt to get back in fails. On one occasion the...

    VIP 922 Functions

    Would it be worthwhile to create a sticky topic that lists what works and what doesn't work and the latest fixes on the first page so that the testers don't have to dig through a bunch of threads? I've got mine in a spare room and trying things as I can. Maybe the remote will grow on me...

    When Will Dish Fix the New Alaska/Hawaii HD Packages

    The new packages are supposed to include HD from 110(part of the old package and some recently added new ones) and 129(all new). If you call and change your package to the new one you will lose all of the HD from 110 and get all of the HD from 129. Once you call and upgrade you can't switch...

    Where is the new AK/HI HD

    The only change I've seen is a loss of two channels. I guess we get a lump of coal.:confused:

    Channel 5500 HD Theater Flaky

    Anyone else having problems? I contacted E* and they recommended I contact my local dealer and get my dish calibrated. That doesn't make sense to me since there are other channels on that transponder that are fine.
