    Hopper Upgrades

    I will be moving to a new location & home in June. For the first time I will have a setup with two HDTVs in two different levels in the house (I also have a third SDTV that I currently use on the 722 TV2 tuner). I am interested in exploring continuing my DISH subscription (5+ year member) with a...

    bein Sport HD channel request

    I'm really happy to hear this news. I almost jumped for DTV but DISH gave me a retention offer I couldn't refuse. With BeIN HD coming, I'm really happy about my choice to stay.

    DISH Drops AMC Networks (AMC Back on DISH channel 131)

    No, it is my first roku. This was my first time calling since AMC was dropped (I was traveling all summer and not watching TV).

    DISH Drops AMC Networks (AMC Back on DISH channel 131)

    Re: DISH Drops AMC Networks I called today to switch to Direct so my wife could watch walking dead and was happy with the dish counter offer: roku, 10/mo discount for a year, and 3 months of all premium and multisport to match the direct offer. With that discount dish comes in at the same 2 yr...

    What is DIRECTV's new GENIE?

    Forgive the newbie question here. I'm thinking of switching from DISH to DTV because my wife is a huge Walking Dead fan (DTV has AMC) and I'm a big soccer fan (DTV has beIN sport in HD). I'm currently seeing Choice Xtra w/ HR34 for $99 initial setup fee, $44.99/mo w/ 3 months premium channels...

    bein Sport HD channel request

    Maybe I wasn't clear--I'm saying that I'm disappointed BeIN is not in HD. I'm happy to hear that E* will pick up Pac-12 in HD, but soccer is more important than college football. DirecTV doesn't even carry Pac-12--but they have BeIN in HD. Dish executive office left me a message today to talk...

    bein Sport HD channel request

    For the first time, I'm seriously thinking of switching over to DTV. Adding BeIN and Pac-12 in SD is bush league. That, combined with the ongoing AMC dispute...I think I'm ready to go. I'm pleased with BeIN's production quality for Serie A & CONCACAF/CONMEBOL qualifiers but it is too painful to...

    Pac-12 Network

    Dish_Answers twitter feed has said multiple times this morning that HD will is "coming soon" but SD feeds could only go live today due to the quick turnaround after the agreement.

    Pac-12 Network

    I'm seeing the Cal game on 431, 445 & 446. Hoping to see WSU on 446 like the guide says. Any ideas?

    Anyone noticed that getting Blockbuster disks at home has suddenly slowed to a crawl?

    When I first joined, it would take 2 days to send, then I'd receive notice that they received my disk and sent out my next disc in the same day for a 4-day turn around. For my last few DVDs, they have added an additional 2 days between receiving and sending the next disc, which means a week...

    Copying Guide info to OTA translator?

    I recently moved to Pullman, WA. I have access to Idaho Public Television (Idaho PBS network) OTA through channels 012-01 through 012-04 (KUID, Moscow). DISH currently provides the Idaho Public Television SD feed on channel 026-00 (from KCDT, Coeur d'Alene). I am currently seeing no guide...

    PR: DISH NETWORK TO OFFER MLS DIRECT KICK PACKAGE

    But they do find a way to screw it up. As I mentioned in another thread--DISH does not provide MLS Direct Kick matches in HD, while cable providers and D* do.

    2011 MLS Direct Kick

    Starting last season MLS offered all their matches in HD on "Direct Kick" ($79 for the season). It is my understanding DirecTV provided all or most of the matches in HD, but DISH provided all or most of the matches in SD. I just asked a CSR about the 2011 season and was told: "We don't want...

    Dish Latino MAX

    RSNs come with Dish Latino Max, so if you live within the Big Ten region you will get it (I am in Ohio, and I do). Like RandallA said, stations broadcast in their default language. Dish often cuts out SAP for channels that actually have it (FSE is a good example), so I'm guessing they are noting...

    Latino Max HD Channels not on Remote Access

    Thanks for the confirmation. After unsuccessfully talking to a couple techs online, they referred my case to the engineering department. I was told there is no way to follow up, but they'll be in touch. I guess I shouldn't hold my breath about that.

    Latino Max HD Channels not on Remote Access

    After the launch of new HD yesterday I switched to Dish Latino Max HD so I could have access to more soccer stations, including FSC HD. First, I noticed that the new HD channels (in the 5300 range) are not availible to be mapped to their low-number SD counterparts. That's fine--I updated my...

    Thanks for the tip, I'm stoked to have FSC HD coming in, soon. I just asked a CSR to switch me to Latino Max HD. Cheers!

    Am I right in thinking FSC HD is only available to Americas Top 250 + HD? By my calculation that would be $28/month over my TurboHD Silver (+DVR) (From $52 I pay now to $80/mo). That being the only station I really want (but I do, really want it...)...I don't know if I can bring myself to up my...

    I have TurboHD/Dish America Silver and see all the channels in RED. So, unfortunately, its a no go. How about you absolute subscribers? I'd happily pay $5.99 for the multisport pack if I could get access to FSC HD.

    Ohio News Network

    And they have the contract through the 2011 season to air Columbus Crew matches. (Their PQ is seriously lacking, though)

    The Dish April 1st New HD Saga (Merged Threads)

    According to their twitter, I'll finally be getting some of my HD locals in Columbus (!), but I assume the offer applies to national HD--I'd be happy to upgrade to a 922 too--the upcoming iphone sling app looks pretty cool :hungry:
