Any way to actually Pause Hulu Desktop through MCE remote? It's a good thing I am on a 30 day trial with them...not to impressed with Hulu. Adds? pfff .., no Full Seasons? pfffff.., not impressed.

Sign up for Kartina.TV I actually just did today.., you'll get LOADs of channels! They even have HD and 3D channels. Dish cant even touch that .., for ~$19/m I see they have a lots of English movies.., all with Russian translation, however I also read that you can turn off the translation and...

Interesting article about IPTV: http://www.nypost.com/p/news/business/tv_in_real_dime_ph0GiKk7rC9agDUEkHae2I

Found this.. https://www.3click.tv/index.php More like Hulu.., but it's like $20/m for shows... Don't think that's worth it overall, but they do have complete seasons unlike Hulu.

So I am in the process of cutting my Dish cord by the end of the month and looking to switch completely to cheaper alternatives. My house is already pre-setup to do video distribution. I have a 4x4 HDMI Matrix in a central room where I have HDMI (+IR) over CAT6 running to every relevant...

Thanks I'll check it out! It might work in my situation also as I have an HDMI distribution matrix running through the house and that BT remote would help a lot!:) Probably going to fire off a trial of Kartina tomorrow and try to follow some half Russian half English guides to get my W7 MCE...

Try http://www.kartina.tv You just get to buy a box unless you have one of the devices that can play it already and it should be about $15/m for 100+ channels. Our friends use it and it no complaints. I am actually planning on pulling the trigger on it shortly. Now if only I could find a US IPTV...

My biggest problem is that Dish requires their Basic package if you want any International packages. So like my grandparents they were forced to get Basic + International. Now they lost their main reason they went with Dish (NTV) and they are still under contract. They don't even watch anything...

So DISH had (still listed on their website) 2 Russian packages: #1 NTV America for $19.99/month and #2 Russian MegaPack (includes NTV) for $24.99/month As of October 1st NTV apparently ceased broadcasting (moving to DirectTV) and DISH duplicated one of the other channels in the package in...

I think you pasted the same link :) So far my receiver been stable since I disconnected my Panasonic plasma. Ouch! Dish?

Hmmm... Well, my TV setup is like this. 722k to 4x4 Matrix with TV1=Philips LCD, TV2=Olevia LCD, TV3=Panasonic plasma. I have no TV2 output on 722k. Interestingly enough I do believe that the problem started the day I got the new TV plugged in via HDMI. It ran via Component for the first few...

Hello, I need some advice on trying to figure out what is going on with my receiver. I had a 722k for at least 1yr+, never any issues. All of a sudden it started rebooting randomly etc.. until one day it never would pass the Dish start-up screen. Dish sent me a new 722k and it worked fine...

I was more referencing that each provider needs to start making a BT remote for their devices. BTW, LG Magic Motion is nothing new.. Gyration had that years back (for Media Center)... got 2 of them somewhere here.

IR to UHF is what I am already using. Was fine at ~25ft., but now with insulation and next drywall I have a feeling it will be shortened even more.

I understand that I am in a minority on this. :), sux! "Only Dish would know" but I think their manufacturing cost savings would be sizable if they went with just 1 remote for all receivers. (Depends on the cost of putting BT modules into receivers) or heck even WiFi would help, all receivers...

Some TVs (ie. Samsung, LG, Sharp.., etc. )have a BT remotes on them also. Dish would just need 1 remote design for every receiver. Could have multiple remotes for 1 receiver (ie. I have 4x4 HDMI Matrix that distributes to the whole house.., all my receivers are in the media closet.)...

No BT remotes yet :( I got no boxes my any of my TVs... they are all in 1 closet in the basement. The IR obviously doesn't work.(using IR distribution which sucks anyways). and RF gets less and less penetration (since I started finishing basement). BT would have been nice.... ohh well.. maybe in...

I started getting the same error recently. On my phone at work and on my Xoom tablet it works just fine though WiFi, but on my PC the dreaded Error 2.

I agree that the Sling feature is unreliable at this point. I think they just implemented a NEW feature also... where it lets you watch about 3 seconds then auto hits 30second skip. (Awesome.., just think of the time savings.., you can watch every show on your DVR in 2-3 hours!) Today I...

Alrighty.... I think I got it working! As a test I went through my OTA channels and removed everything that was under 70 (I have a total like 40+ OTA's). Then I let it play a movie for 2 hours and havent seen the error message since.! Also I talked to 2 tech guys that came out and they were a...

Very interesting, I do have OTA, a big 25' tower outside. My local channels show up fairly good.., from 70 to 100 range. BTW, Vip211 is also connected to the same OTA source. Shouldn't it experience the same problems? Thanks

Hi guys, thanks for all your replies. Here is some additional info. I have international programing so I have 4 satellites I need to connect to. Overall I have 4 receivers also, with only 2 hooked up at the moment. The error pops up about 70% of the time when watching recoded shows and 30% of...

Hi, Over the last 2 month I started running into a weird issue. Is it progressively getting worse. I have 2 receivers that I am testing this out with, a Vip211 and Vip722K (before last Friday Vip622). My setup is a Dish 500 (? not 100% sure) and then DPP44 (without the power adapter!)...

Wait a min. I have 3 leased receivers that 1 purchased. Am I supposed to pay that $7 lease fee (DHA Leased Receiver)? Calling Dish and talking to them about this did no good. :(

Sweet!!! That will definitely help my cause out! Right now I got 1 vip622 going to 3 HDTV's and 1 SDTV and it kind of sucks that you can only watch 1 thing on all of them. VIP622 (HDMI) > Monoprice 4x2 matrix > 52" LCD and 23" LCD (both with 25ft HDMI cables) VIP622 (Component) > 26" LCD (25ft...
