It’s been a while since I’ve used DISH to any degree, I’ve been perfectly content with my Apple TV and Apps, using DISH as simply my “content provider”, knowing I have the highest chances of 4K by streaming. A couple of times my broadband has slowed down on weekends and I’ve tried to flip over to this 540 4K “channel” on DISH for NASCAR races. Each time I received the HDCP error. I figured it was my setup- I have three TVs only one of which is 4K, and a Sony headset system which is basically an AVR without the amp, nor the ability to pass through 4K HDR or Dolby Vision but also able to handle up to at least DD 7.1 however that has to come from HDMI. To solve these problems I purchased HDfury’s 4K Vertex2 18Gbps which is an awesome piece of equipment that can solve just about any issue you could imagine. It can be complicated and tricky to get everything working right all at the same time but I’ve had no problem that I’ve not been able to fix until this. Eventually I took it out of the equation after two or three hours and it still did not work. Cables are all good (HS w/Ethernet) but just to be sure I tried two more, and there’s nothing else just Joey 4K -> Sony 75XBR950G. Still got the HDCP error. So then I started resetting everything to defaults (), no go, and turned on Bravia Sync and boom all the sudden it worked. The tech specialist in me had to know for sure of the cause and the solution, so of course I turned it back off, issue came back, but then when I turned Bravia Sync back on- it didn’t work! Finally I give in and go to the Googler and find this thread. But surely DISH has had to have fixed this by now, no??? Still, I figured I had nothing to lose and tried the “trick” of hitting ch down, and sure as $#!+, it worked without fail. What is going on with this crap? 6 months plus and this is still an issue? I think Spectrum has the right idea of having a nice app developed for the Apple TV and then selling them as a replacement cable box. If Dish had the infrastructure that’d be the way to go, maybe they should look into purchasing Starlink and then go that route. I can’t imagine DISH having the capacity to start up multiple 4K channels let alone enough for all the main cable channels. It’s data anyway, why not transmit it as such. DISH, if you ever see this, it’s time (actually, it’s been time) to step it up (like three or four notches). Redirect some of that cash flow from your pockets, back into this machine that is DISH Network before you find yourself in serious trouble.
