This happened to me a month or two ago. (That is, after working perfectly well for over a year, the guide would not populate.) I should specify that I'm referring to the Dishanywhere app on my iPad. While restarting the app and restarting the iPad did not get the guide to show up, it was...

I am hoping for assistance from a DIRT member. I currently have 722 that has served me well for over 6 years but is now starting to fail. I'd like to see about swapping out the 722 for a Hopper (or, perhaps a Hopper w/Sling). Could someone from DIRT please PM me and provide me with...

After 3 years and 7 months, Cinemax for a penny is gone for me too. (I'd say I'm going to miss it, but I doubt I've watched anything on it for over a year.)

Has no one else out there (other than eddie) gotten L672 for the 722. I've had it since early last week, and it's a big clunker. Here are some of the highlights: 1) It takes about 4 to 5 seconds (no exaggeration) for the program guide to appear after pushing the "Guide" button on the remote...

My 722 is actually running L670 (not 630), but it's having all the same problems being reported here. Since getting the new software version my 722 has randomly shut down, and has frozen and required front panel rebooting a couple of times. The wife is really frustrated.

I'm currently at a relative's house who has FiOS, and they are definitely receiving Nat Geo Wild programming right now.

I'm having the same problems. Used remote access many times in the past, but haven't been able to access my DVR online for the past two weeks or so.

On channel 9483 the listing from 12:50 to 4:00 p.m. today shows up as "Free Preview." Of course the channel is still in red at this time, but given the title of the listing, I'm not worried.

I'm sorry, but this just doesn't sound like it's correct. For starters, I can attest that the criteria above are demonstrably false, since I receive NBA TV HD despite the fact that I don't meet any of those three criteria. I'm sure others will report the same thing (as Jim S. just did). NBATV...

Episode 1 was listed as "new" last wednesday...when it was new. Tonight is episode 2.

Thanks for the information...but I must ask you: Is this a quote from E* or are you writing this yourself? I ask because the sentence that I've bolded above doesn't make any sense. If the platinum channels are proactively added, then no call would be necessary. If, on the other hand, a call...

Dish stated a long time ago that they wouldn't carry the channel until July 8. So why are you surprised it's not appearing this week?

Because you're comparing football to basketball, it sounds like an apples to oranges comparison, and thus not good grounds for concluding that it's a problem with the satellite compression. One might point out, for example, that there's a huge difference in quality between football and...

Seems to be one of the current deals for existing customers. See the following threads: http://www.satelliteguys.us/dish-network-forum/164613-upgraded-w-new-2-year-commitment-deals-right-now.html...

I'm soon going to be in the same situation as the OP. I will be moving (within the same city) and have been reasoning through in my head the pros and cons of Dish Mover vs. signing up as a new customer through my wife. As of now, I'm thinking that there really isn't any benefit to signing up...

I've had a recent "issue" with a recording timer on my 722. (Not a serious issue, but I don't want it to happen again.) I originally set (last week) my DVR to record a DiscoveryHD program on Sunday night ("The Science of Sex Appeal"). On Saturday, in looking at my daily schedule, I noticed...

Well, the SD version of 206 shows up in my guide (but I don't get the channel...I guess it's in the gold/top 250 packages?), but the two HD versions (9476, 9477) don't show up in my guide at all...even though I get FoxNews as part of my package.

When I tune to transponder 15 on 129, it now tells me that it is spotbeam. What does that portent?

Well, since the local channels in the "uplink" report are on transponders that currently have CONUS (and in many cases national) channels on E5, it follows that we will need to see the national channels moved to different transponders. Those are the changes to the system tables that I'd be...

The SD version is in a "free preview" period this month.

Well, I guess that's it for this week. See you all next Wednesday! ;)

Oooh...I found a way that we can get the sat there faster. We can just use the metric system. According to n2yo.com it's traveling at .02 km/sec, which is equivalent to .0125 miles/sec (faster than the .01 miles/sec you're using). So it would arrive earlier than your calculations predict...

But A&E HD is a 720p channel. What makes you think that it's appearance on FiOS (in 720p) would be better than E*'s 1080p IP-VOD content?
