    Having Problem With Timers on Hopper

    Thanks. all of the missed recordings were rescheduled to after midnight. Mad Men, Silicon Valley, Nurse Jackie, Game of Thrones. Sunday is a real hassle. So many of the shows we watch are scheduled on Sunday. Throw in the NFL or baseball, like the game last night between Reds and Cards, andI...

    Having Problem With Timers on Hopper

    Not for me. I have found that when the timer shows purple it will, at times, not record the program due to there being too many programs scheduled to record. This doesn't happen regularly, but often enough that I don't trust it, Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Having Problem With Timers on Hopper

    I am having a terrible time with my scheduled timers being cancelled. They say user cancelled but I am not canceling them. I already know that if the timer color is purple I need to set it for a different time slot. Tonight, the Hopper failed to record 4 programs that I moved to later time...

    FOX News Channel/DISH dispute

    Not political commentary, just facts. Yes, more young people watch Fox but it is more of the young people that watch TV news watch Fox. Most of the younger demographic do not watch TV news at all. So Fox is the leader of a part of a small percentage of young people that watch TV news. Woo hoo...

    FOX News Channel/DISH dispute

    It is a fact, do the math. Let's say that 300 million people live in the U.S. 1% is 3 million people. I was being gracious with the stat because Fox News does not have 3 million viewers. Worse yet, the viewers they do have are overwhelmingly old and white. No need to read anything into my...

    FOX News Channel/DISH dispute

    The fact is 99% of Americans do not watch Fox News. And they don't watch CNN or MSNBC. And they don't watch the news on their local channels. Those who still do are, for the most part, boomers and the elderly. Younger adults do not turn to TV for their news, and increasingly they do not turn to...

    NASCAR in a higher tier?

    IMO, the races are too long, some of the tracks are boring, and the constant tweaking of the points system irritates long time fans. I tend to tune in towards the end of the race, that is if I haven't fallen asleep in the recliner. :) (old age) I much prefer going to one of the four local dirt...

    New DishNET Plans Launching

    I pay 51.00 for 15/1 plan from Time Warner. We are in an area previously serviced by Adelphia before TWC bought them out. Old, outdated equipment, poor service, lousy customer service and no choice. There is DSL service but the speeds are terrible. Most rural people outside of TWC service area...

    Audio Drops After Skipping

    Thanks for the info. My Onkyo receiver handles all the hdmi inputs. As Tron2012 mentions, these are split second drops, almost like a word being bleeped out. This has happened on and off in the past, but today it was a steady stream of drops on any program, recorded, live and paused, OTA and...

    Audio Drops After Skipping

    I am having a strange audio problem today. I have a Hopper and Super Joey and OTA module. When I watch recorded TV or live TV and use the skip function it causes Audio drops every 30-60 seconds. As long as I don't use the skip function there are no audio drops. No hardware/setting changes. I...

    attention DIRT: the cause of the "Cancelled: By User" bug

    I have found most of my cancelled by user problems happen on programs with a purple tuner icon. Sunday is a day I really have to watch. Most of my shows are set to record 2 minutes over and I suspect this, at times, results in more programs recording than the Hopper can handle. (I have Hopper...

    Dish/Fox Deal close to fruition?

    Yep, I am a Reds fan....too painful to watch us swirl the drain. Time for football. Bengals are 2-0. Maybe this will be the century we win a playoff game. :) I am an avid baseball fan but when the Reds are out of it I find football more engaging. Of course if the Bengals tank it will be time...

    Guide Wrong ESPN

    Just a heads up, the guide for ESPN is showing the wrong college basketball game. The ACC game is on ESPN2 and the Big 10 game is on ESPN. Not sure is this will continue throughout the day.

    Al Jazeera America in HD?

    Personally, I love the channel. I love their take on the news, quite refreshing. I hope the channel is in HD soon.

    Dish and DirecTV to join forces!

    Yes, another reason to praise the tech god for DVR technology. I HATE political ads. I am quite political but I find the ads, all of them, quite irritating. Sadly, they are the only political news many people read or hear. That said, I think it is great the two companies are working together.

    DISH Network vs. SportsTime Ohio

    Sports Time Ohio started as an independent channel. I think it became a Fox channel late in 2012. I live in far NW Ohio and I am in the Detroit, Cincinnati, and Cleveland baseball market, so I get to watch the Reds and Indians. I have to subscribe to the Sports Pack to get Detroit, which I...

    DISH Network vs. SportsTime Ohio

    Reds baseball is on Fox Sports Ohio not Sports Time Ohio. Rooting for a better season for the Browns as long as they finish second to the Bengals. :)
