    CBS Will Drop Dish If Auto Hop Stays

    I've had commercial skip on OTA channels for over 6 years using my HTPC with BeyondTV software and SageTV had the same feature. They generally ignored that because it wasn't that prevalent, or at least they didn't think so. They might as well quit worrying about it since those who want to...

    DISH Network Reports Fourth Quarter and Year End 2010 Financial Results

    No one has mentioned a class of ex-subs that left and didn't got to another provider. I think a lot of us that had the Absolute package subscribed initially because it was simply a good value, even though it had some shortcomings, especially in regard to sports. It also had less crap than most...

    Losing HD Absolute. Any suggestions?

    I was one who got the call back in July/August. Difference was they were offering a deal to switch at the time and it only made $10 a month increase for a year for me with the AT200 HD & Platinum (which I don't care about) free for 6 months. Until now wasn't sure it was a smart move (did it...

    Cheapest Setup for 2 HD TV's (Want HD and DVR on Both)

    I run HDMI to my living room where the 722 is and to my bedroom using a powered splitter. The TV2 remote works with the bedroom TV to control the DVR (will depend on your proximity to the DVR - I'm about 25-30 ft away on the same level). Been doing this for 2 1/2 years and works perfectly. I...

    OFFICIAL DISH / FOX ORDEAL DISCUSSION THREAD

    I thought they were supposed to make the other RSNs available to those of you that lost yours. Those games are on 414 FSN RM tomorrow. You might check it out or call and see if you can get that channel.

    KUSA 9 Streamed Online Anywhere?

    They aren't going to make the shows available for streaming because they want you to watch live. That's where their main source of revenue is and advertising is based on ratings. Don't know why they couldn't incorporate it into their site and expand their base. I'm in southern Colorado and...

    Guess I need OTA setup

    Good luck. Let us know how it works out.

    no replacment

    I had the same question and called in and they gave me the same deal. I didn't expect it because I didn't lose my RSNs and they said the replacement was for those that had the multi-sports package. Like you, I thought it should be for anyone who lost their RSN. The package is useless because...

    Guess I need OTA setup

    To set up your locals, just go to the menu, select 6 (System Setup), then 9 (Local Channels) and scan for your locals and see what it picks up. You will get guide data if you have locals with Dish, otherwise no guide. As for an antenna, you might try TV Fool or Antennaweb.org to find out what...

    "Other Devices" in Network computer..?

    I'm running XP and while it doesn't show as part of my home network in Windows itself, it has been recognized as an attached device by my firewalls ever since I connected it a couple of years ago.

    "Other Devices" in Network computer..?

    You must have your 622 connected to your router by ethernet, so it's going to show up as a network device as will anything connected to the router. It should have been there whenever you connected it, not just after the software update.

    OFFICIAL DISH / FOX ORDEAL DISCUSSION THREAD

    I don't have anything to complain about with Dish since I didn't lose my FSN locals and have OTA covered for the Fox local (which I won't lose anyway because they are independent). If I did want to vent, it wouldn't be directed at either Dish or Fox, but where the real problem lies: In...

    No, the Song Name Game threads for one have it beat by quite a bit. Main difference is that one is more fun and actually serves a purpose.

    #1 - no judgement - I applaud your forthrightness and choice of information sources. Those that would judge do so due to a lack of capacity for logical reasoning and the initiative to seek out facts. (I'll take the heat for you). If 2 programs are all you are missing and are otherwise happy...

    Hook DVD Recorder to Dish

    Yes it would. I didn't see it listed in the specs for your unit that I saw online. Just use that instead of the yellow video connection.

    Hook DVD Recorder to Dish

    You have two options: 1. Connect the coax to the in-house distribution connection and you'll get SD video and audio same as TV2 if in dual mode. 2. Connect the analog video (yellow) with audio (red/white) which will show only what's showing on TV1.

    Add one more Giants fan. All you have to do is look at the programming. As I said in another thread - follow the money - the population centers get the juice and they are mostly in the east.

    OTA question

    Whatever problems you may have in your market, I stated in MY MARKET they do provide the data for ALL available OTA stations. Don't make blanket judgements based on one area which may in itself be an anomaly. While they may go out of their way to delete the guide date for OTA, it may be more...

    OTA question

    That's not true. They carry the guide data for all locals, including subs for the major networks.

    OTA question

    My guess is that the programming will still be there. Right now, they provide programming for OTA channels that they don't provide by dish, like PBS. They use the tribune services for their guide, so I don't think tribune itself would be affected by this.

    FSN RM Not on HD Alternate

    If I had lost my RSN I'd be watching the game on Comcast right now.

    FSN RM Not on HD Alternate

    It was on here during the pre-game show - watching the end now. It was showing on a number of other RSNs but not available for me and those are the ones that are also supposed to be available. Really a mess.

    FSN RM Not on HD Alternate

    It's not owned by Fox and wasn't one of the RSNs in the contract dispute. It's my local RSN. It was ostensibly made available to everyone with the multi-sports package.

    FSN RM Not on HD Alternate

    College FB games have been on HD Alternate, but today, FSNRM is showing the games on their regular 414 HD channel. Looks like it may be the same for any of the FSN RSNs that are still active. If you have any games scheduled to record on the HD Alternate channels you better check the status.
