    Message app that will let you delete people from a group

    Does anyone know of a messaging app that will let you opt out of a group text or remove someone from a group text like iOS 8 now does? I'm currently using the stock samsung app on the s5, which works fine for me except for this feature. Or, is there any rumor of samsung or others adding this...

    Problem with PrimeTime Recording

    Satelliteguys does indeed rule! I had the same problem with PT not recording and it was because I lost Fox due to a carriage dispute, so I had to uncheck that box. I came here to search for a solution and there it was on the first page. It is weird that the software wouldn't allow for that...

    Lost CBS in HD, Southeast Alaska

    Thanks for the replies. I get all the channels that Ray C pointed out and I have good signal on all satellites. It just appears that CBS HD disappeared without a trace. We have always gotten this channel in HD...worked with primetime and everything so I know I'm not dreaming. The networks in...

    Lost CBS in HD, Southeast Alaska

    Just wondering if anyone was familiar with SE Alaska (Juneau) DMA? We have always gotten CBS KTNL, channel 5122 in HD. Now it's only SD for about a week. A real bummer because it was the only network we got in HD. Looked on the List and it only shows SD feed and didn't see anything in uplink...

    dish anywhere app and bandwidth usage

    I was wondering if anyone knew...if you use dish anywhere app (with HWS) in your home on the wireless network that the hopper is on, will it count as a double whammy on bandwidth? i.e. upload show, then download show? Or will it just use the home network. I think when you actually download a...

    Need to make a 300+ft run...can it be done

    I agree with nelson61. Pretty cheap to just try it with RG6. I've run 200' to a joey with no issues. Don't know if another 50' will matter or not.

    DISH Anywhere™ Now Available on Amazon Kindle Fire HDX Tablets

    You can "side load" the android app to the Kindle Fire HD, as noted in various Kindle forums, but it doesn't give you off-line download, at least in my experience, but I can watch stuff when I have a wireless connection. It is a bummer that the Fire HD is left out. Maybe it's hardware related?

    Hooking up 3 homes,3 dishes and multiple rec

    Sharing dishes (separate accounts) is very common in AK. Probably half the dishes in my town are shared, not only because of size/expense, but mainly because of LOS. Dodging around trees, hills, mountains, aiming at something very low on the horizon....the things we do for TV.

    CAN'T RECEIVE SAT 119 EVEN TRANSPONDERS

    Every time I have had an odd-even issue, it has always been a bad cable or connector. Since you've ruled them out, it's got to be the LNB. Good luck.

    Dish/Hopper/Hawaii Major Problems

    I've noticed this too since getting the Hopper. I've had the hopper awhile now and have kinda gotten used to it. My issues don't seem to be as bad as "dune", but like the other Alaska post, I lose espn2 occasionally...it's like the Hopper thinks I'm in a blackout area and can't get the game...

    Channel and Mapdown Problems

    I see you're in HI, so you might be similar to us in Alaska. You're right, most of the 5xxx channels don't show with the Hopper, most things map down pretty well. There are times when things don't seem to map down, and I have found that the 5xxx channel will show up under "my channels or all...

    No picture or sound on joeys

    If this happens to anyone else, it was a bad hard drive or related hardware in the Hopper. Replaced the Hopper and all is well.

    No picture or sound on joeys

    My friend has a 1H 2J setup that I helped him install. (no techs/installers in our area) It worked fine for four days, but this afternoon, both joeys just have a black screen. Their guides come up (with no graphics) but when you select the channel, you get the upper banner, then black. I've...

    Anyone Else Wi-Fi connected?

    I'm also hooked to Hopper only with Wi-Fi...no issues.

    DISH COVERAGE OF OLYMPICS

    The Olympic app seems to work well on my Hopper (press the blue button). It has what's on and what channel and you can tune to the channels from there, plus it has medal counts. Kinda cool actually.

    delete multiple but not all recordings in a folder

    Indeed, hopefully that's what they'll come up with.

    Hopper has been nothing but a big hot mess

    Sounds like a horrible experience. For a comparison or discussion, I've had mine since April (1H/2J) and haven't had any issues. Had to reboot one time after install, and has been flawless since.

    delete multiple but not all recordings in a folder

    I got a PM from some one at Dish, and it's like Chuck14 says...go to no folders, then edit, etc. In the PM, the Dish guy said that they were working to make this easier. It's pretty cool that some one at Dish PM'ed me about this off this thread. Kudos to Sat Guys and Dish...customer service...

    delete multiple but not all recordings in a folder

    So I've played with it some more, and I can get an edit screen for "timers" like I want, but for recordings in a folder it's one at a time or all of them from what I can find.

    delete multiple but not all recordings in a folder

    Ok, thanks. I'll play with it when I get home. I knew I was missing something simple.

    delete multiple but not all recordings in a folder

    Has anyone figured out how to do this on a hopper? I've gone to "edit all" etc., and I can delete the whole folder, but what about my kids "Spongebob" folder that has 30 episodes in it and I want to get rid of 15? I can only do it one at a time. On my old 622, I could pull up an edit list and...

    Hopper working in Alaska???

    Just got on and saw your post. We already talked about the 55xx deal, but I'm curious if the PTAT works up there. I can't try it here in Southeast because our feeds aren't high def.

    Audio popping when watching DVR

    I run the sound from my Hopper via optical link to my Sony audio receiver. When I'm playing back a recording, the audio pops when skipping or FF. My 622 never did this and everything is hooked up the same way. I saw some older posts about this with a 722, but no solutions. Anyone else...

    Harmony One for the Hopper

    Yes, I did. The Hopper would turn on, but not off. Others talked about it earlier in this thread. My menu wasn't like what they said, but I eventually dug around and found the right spot to set the remote to "power toggle", and now it works fine.
