    Nope. It was a cold case that was never solved.

    Netflix not working on Hopper 3 - ongoing 8 month old issue

    Yeah that's just busy work. Even if it worked, would then having to buy a second router or pull ethernet be a requirement of a Dish install? They say you can have it without those limitations and it should just work without tricks. Sent from my SM-G965U1 using Tapatalk

    Netflix not working on Hopper 3 - ongoing 8 month old issue

    At one time I had tried to use it on a Joey 2 and it would lock up after a time and I'd have to reboot. I found this amount of time was about 70 minutes. Back then I resorted to instead chromecast it from my phone. This was pre-Roku. Sent from my SM-G965U1 using Tapatalk

    Nexstar dispute looming...

    That settles it then. In the dispute how can it be Dish's fault? If they had permission they would still be rebroadcasting :) Sent from my SM-G965U1 using Tapatalk

    Hopper 3 HDMI CEC Issues?

    You've all convinced me it has a use. I'm not convinced that turning modern electronics on and off is hard on them. It may have once been true. We just bought two new sets. But our old sets were 14 years old. We turned them on and off once at least once per day which is over 5000 times. The only...

    Nexstar dispute looming...

    Time to look into a OTA DVR setup. Some are quite nice and have Roku apps to interface them. I've gone to YouTube TV and don't have to worry about it. Yet. But I'm not under the delusion they are immune to any of this. I have no faith this is the last stop in my journey. Sent from my SM-G965U1...

    Hopper 3 HDMI CEC Issues?

    Yeah I don't know who came up with standby. The first time I set up my Yamaha it was on by default. I thought the TV was off then I looked closer and it was on with a black screen. I could never think of a reason anyone would want that. Sent from my SM-G965U1 using Tapatalk

    Dish shuts down Slingbox - Will brick all devices by 2022

    A skilled programmer could write a custom firmware and new software for the box. It would probably work better than it did originally. Sent from my SM-G965U1 using Tapatalk

    On Demand "Watch Now" vs "Watch Later"

    Then that is why I didn't notice this. Most of my VOD was from Showtime and Starz. Streaming is even worse if you get into a situation where it's out and reading off the disk would be the only way to watch. Sent from my SM-G965U1 using Tapatalk

    On Demand "Watch Now" vs "Watch Later"

    I could never understand if I reserved a video "download" (I will now put that in quotes) and didn't get around to watching it before it expired, why I had to delete/search/download. A simple Renew option would work fine. Sent from my SM-G965U1 using Tapatalk

    On Demand "Watch Now" vs "Watch Later"

    I can't verify since I recently discontinued and sent my H3 back. But a few weeks ago I did a watch later of the David Crosby documentary and it at first said its download speed while I let it download. Is this not the on demand type shows you mean? Sent from my SM-G965U1 using Tapatalk

    On Demand "Watch Now" vs "Watch Later"

    I only had to watch on demand as streaming from a few sources. One of them was Syfy and when I found out that was where a movie was from I wouldn't choose it. Let alone they had commercial breaks. Sent from my SM-G965U1 using Tapatalk

    Audio not syncing?

    I thought of that too except he said resetting the box helped for a while. Still it's worth a try just for the process of elimination. Sent from my SM-G965U1 using Tapatalk

    DISH retention offers

    Be careful about the last payment. I said my autopay would get it and they said my autopay wound be turned off. That's not what the bill page said, nevertheless I payed it manually. I thought I saw something on the bill page that if the last payment isn't made, they will restore service. I...

    How do I transfer existing settings and timers (NOT recordings) from old Hopper 3 to a brand new Hopper 3?

    This worked every time I had to change boxes. Every installer would tell me that won't work. They were proven wrong every time. Sent from my SM-G965U1 using Tapatalk

    I have a Samsung 2020 model. If I go to sources and click the HDMI source I'm currently using, it shows the info header. If it is 4k it shows the UHD badge. If it is processing HDR it shows the HDR badge. On Dish I note it also shows 60i. I have checked HDR10+ material and I haven't seen...

    4K Joeys freezing about every minute, Hopper 3 is fine.

    It's interesting that so much attention comes through the forum about OTA. I used it a lot myself. What does that say about Dish programming? Sent from my SM-G965U1 using Tapatalk

    Chat is unbelievably useless

    There are a couple things missing from YTTV. Obvious is no channel numbers. Having the channels I watch most in the recall list is good enough. They also seem to remember what channel I was watching 24 hours ago and have it up when I begin which is clever. Lack of info on the program is...

    We can get YouTube TV and Philo to fill out the missing channels we want and for that save over 1000 dollars a year. That's enough to rent or buy what we are missing with much left over. The picture quality is great. Even us old codgers were convinced. Sent from my SM-G965U1 using Tapatalk

    We've been on Dish since 1997. We are the older demographic :) We tried YouTube TV and we really like the interface. We like when we want to record a series, prior episodes are available immediately. We like that it let's us skip the commercials. It doesn't auto hop but we rarely let a show...

    Chat is unbelievably useless

    It was a hilarious post. We seemed to zoom in on how Mariciel was referred to as a Dude. A breif lookup on the number of people who have that name, it's very rare and 100 percent women. I wonder, though, if they even use real names. But also noticed was that the next thing the Dude typed was...
