On my HWS, ever since U 718, now on the bottom of my guide i get ads for ppv movies, even thought it is set for TIPS AND TRICKS ONLY, not SHOW ALL.
I even reset the setting for the guide but still get the ppv ads. Anyone else having this? Thanks in advance.

Yes I noticed the ads on the bottom of the guide on my HWS although I did not associate the change with a particular update. I find it annoying but had not found a way to get rid of them.

No way I'm letting Google into my TV. If I decline, will the old voice system still work?

Our voice search feature has been integrated in the software with the Google Assistant. Without accepting the terms and conditions for Google Assistant, you would still be able to use our text search whenever the microphone button is pressed.

If you do choose to activate Google Assistant don't stick that remote under your pillow when you turn in for the night. Otherwise you may be sharing things with those Google employees beyond your love for some Housewifes show.

These remotes are push-to-talk, are they not?

Absolutely is push to talk. The microphone is not active unless you actively push that one button on the 54 remote.

 

[TheKrell]

Push to talk. How quaint. Puts me in mind of this famous scene.

At least until the “hey google” is added.

Mom's mad the voice feature has been disabled.

Question: If Google assistant is activated is it on the account (all receivers/voice remotes) or the individual receivers/voice remotes? In other words, does it work like Netflix does (I'm logged into my Netflix account on the Hopper and she's logged into her Netflix account on her Joey and never the twain shall meet)?

If that's the case then she can take it upon herself to activate Google on her Joey and let them know she watches Bravo and TLC 24/7

No wife beater Channel?

When using Google Assistant you will have the option to use your Google account for all receivers in the home or at a preferred location. Ex. You have it activated at your Hopper and mom wants to use it at her Joey, she will need to use her own Google account or you can have yours activated for her Joey as well.

u539...we're having issues. Almost every day now after night time reset when we turn on any of the 3 Joeys (ours are wired) we don't seem to get a decent signal from the Hopper and the channel is either black, stutters or is pixellated and unwatchable. And if you press the Options button on the Joey it'll say 16 of 16 tuners in use and they all say "acquiring signal." A reset of the Hopper solves all this until it resets itself in the middle of the night and it starts all over again. Diag screens say everything's linked and strong signal. This has never happened...ever...until now

Try this, and I know it is sounding like a broken record but, unplug your Hopper for 30 seconds and plug it back in. Let the Hopper go through its reboot. See if that corrects the Joey issue. You said that you reset the Hopper to fix this daily. A red button reset doesn't necessarily fix the issue.

Sigh.

We shouldn't have to kiss our elbows to get it to work.

While I might agree, it's not a hard thing to do...

I shake chicken bones at it.

All I've gotten from the GA is fare on Youtube. It has yet to show me anything that comes from dish. Between GA, Alexa and the old dish AI, I have a distinct feeling that they are triplets. So now I threaten Alexa that I'm going to replace her with GA and visa versa. So glad Siri is not in the mix. They're all Dumb as a Box of Rocks!" "AND that's being mean to the "Box of Rocks"!!!"
