    TV5Monde (French): Info in French

    TV5Monde Etats Unis (United States), the French content channel, always had the INFO data in English, but for almost 2 months now, the INFO data has been in French. About 95% of TV5 content has English subtitles and that has not changed. Since a big part of the mission of TV5 is to promote...

    Why DA only streams instead of from our Hoppers?

    OK, why does the Dish Anywhere offer so MANY live STREAMS of channels (without trick-play) from the guide instead of the few channels that we can still access from our Hoppers at our home with full trick-play. Yes, I know that I can select RECORD from withing DA to then leave the live stream to...

    Only ONE Streaming Channel at a time?

    If I am viewing a steaming channel such as one of the HBO's at 300+ range or BNC at 361 or Stadium at 290-35, if another person at either a Joey or H3 attempt to tune to the same or different streaming channel on the same H3 network, a pop-up message stating that I have exceeded my bandwidth and...

    Stupid TiVo Description

    OK, this is TiVo's Seires summary on the TV series Columbo: "The Classic Whodunnit . . . " WHAT!! Further proof that the dingbats at TiVo who maintain the metadata DO NOT either WATCH TV nor have they every watched CLASSIC/OLD TV. That really is a big part of the problem and is even evident...

    U531 May Have Fixed "never ending" Reboot?

    With regards for two Hopper 3 systems where one of the hopper 3 would not complete rebooting for several hours if it "sees" the other Hopper 3: I hope I'm not speaking too soon but now that both of our Hopper 3s are running U531, neither Hopper 3 has had hours long reboot attempt and the...

    Drop-in ads create frustration

    Far too often, when skipping through the drop in ads, watching either from the hopper 3 unit or the Joey's, the system will sometimes present a black screen nothing happens and I'll have to either change the channel or even be forced to do a reboot. This happens on DVR playback but is even...

    KLCS 58

    As of a few weeks ago, KLCS channel 58, Los Angeles vacated is channel allocations and is now sharing with KCET channel 28, Los Angeles as part of the early re-pack. For a great many people, KLCS will probably be easier to receive OTA, and KLCS 58 is now in High Definition (720p) for the first...

    Dish Please Change Logos

    In the LA DMA, MeTV has moved from channel 20 to channel 54 and Heroes & Icons is now at channel 20. The change of content/signals is complete: all MeTV is now at channel 54 and all Heroes & Icons at channel 20. However, channel 20 still has the MeTV icon and channel 54 still has the Azteca TV...

    Rovi MESS: Raging Bull(s) Inappropriate Guide Info

    You have to check out the EPG for any of the HBO channels airing a movie entitled "Raging Bulls" with the following description: "sexy black and white studs stroke and devour each other's engorged beef hammers then pounded deep into snug bottoms until they're fully drained." (currently showing...

    Who are the Fatties?

    Who are the 3 fat people on the thumbnail art used for recordings of the Match Game 1970's version on GSN? They changed the art from the simple "Match Game" in lights (from when the show went syndication only until the death of the show) to the 3 fat people who I have NO IDEA who they are or if...

    New EPG Info data - strange

    Has anyone else noticed that the descritons for TV shows is different from what they had been? For example, the use of the dash - is prominent in nearly every info description. Also, the text itself is very different. Before it was a brief, dry (but dry can be GOOD) description of the episode...

    Reboots when tuning to certain channels

    This is in the incerased box resetting many times of late department: For the last few weeks, especially later at night, if I dare to tune to a channel down in the 240's range such Logo or TrueTV. The very moment the HWS displays channels in that range, it goes black and reboots, and then after...

    Anyone Else Notice Lots of Thumbnail Art is Generic?

    I have two HWS's: The last few weeks, I have noticed a fairly substantial amount of thumbnail art (the pictures that as used for thumbnials to identify a program) that are a few variants of a generic image (often the same image for many shows) for a great many TV shows that used to have specific...

    Old CBS Logo

    OK, not a critical matter, but seeing how well Dish keeps up with the latest logos when the media company changes them (GREAT JOB on that Dish), so the Hopper has the up to date channel logos, it has really puzzled me why both TiVo and Rovi have a different, and more recent, I believe, CBS TV...

    Channel 100 Mux not working

    The banner promotes and channel 100 is on the guide, but when I select 100 it just displays the dish logo and the circle rotates indicating it is busy but it never changes front that stuck state. I have attempted to tune 100 over the last two day alone with reboots and get the same won't load...

    STELA Compliance?

    A number of smaller LA locals are now in HD, and finally KPAX our local ION. Is something similar occurring in other DAM's? I think Dish is finally compiling with STELA and now providing all locals in HD, provided the local is broadcast in HD,in DMA's where Dish provides any locals in ILL HD.

    Closed Caption Enhancements Please

    This has be mentioned before with many CC users agreeing, but I am feeling stronger than ever about this: Please Dish, will you add the other options for CC characters on the Hopper that you do on the ViP's. Specifically, at least the DROP SHADOW options. I use translucent, and without the...

    When is HD LIL Requirement Date?

    I forgot, but I remember that there is a date by which satellite MVPD's must provide all HD channels in any DMA where they currently offer HD LIL's. Is it not sometime this year? Is it next year? Here in L.A., KPXN, 30, is the only local broadcasting in HD that Dish does NOT provide in HD via...

    New Channel: FXM

    Just noticed a new channel at 384, FXM for FX Movie Channel. But the channel is SD only. PLEASE, Dish, if you are going to add any channel, especially a movie channel, do so in HD. Or does an HD feed for this service exist? The content appears to be previously released movies, nothing new here.

    I Miss one 922 featue on My Hoppers

    I really do miss and have use for the feature that would allow us to list or search for a channel based on the name of that channel. There are times when I am looking for a channel I don't usually watch and have a heck of a time finding it. Once it took me like almost TEN full minutes...

    Closed Caption and Record Fixed

    I looked earlier and could not find the fixes below mentioned: Since receiving the latest software update just a few days ago, I've noticed these fixes: 1. Closed Caption now displays on both foreground and background (PIP) tuners, so now when the tuners are Swapped both tuners display CC...

    AAD alaternative to CBS O&O takedown?

    If Les Moonves refuses to renew retransmission agreements with Dish for the Owned & Operated CBS stations across the country because of the Hopper/Autohop, will that make us in those DMA's immediately qualify for distant nets with All American Direct? This is the only scenario I can think of...

    CC Problems

    Here is what I have observed and confirmed regarding a problem with Closed Captions: 1. From the HOPPER, if one is viewing a live (or delayed) program from the FIRST tuner listed (being the TOP tuner listed), CC functions. If one viewing a LIVE (or delayed) program for the SECOND tuner...

    CC OK at Joey but not at Hopper

    This has been happening for at least a week: The CC works fine on the Joey's, but the CC will cease on the Hopper. This is across ALL channels and all playback of recordings. A RESET usually fixes it, but the same problem can occur in less than an hour. And I'm not going to RESET during...

    OK, NBC/Universal is launching COZI TV as a replacement to its current Non Stop TV service aired on all its NBC O&O digital sub-channels. COZI TV is close to, but not quite, MeTV or Antenna TV, but with some of a few hold over shows from the Non Stop (like Talk Stoop) and some new programs to...
