Honestly, the mods need to put you in time out. It's trolls like you that ruin this forum and dissuade people from sharing their thoughts. I offered my experience as a 20-year dish subscriber and you've done nothing but attack me because I had the nerve to try something new for a few months...

All the channels broadcast in 1080P can be received in 1080P, at least that has been my experience so far. I am able to set that as the speed in the app and the picture looks amazing upscaled to 4K. Obviously, Disney-ABC networks chose the 720P standard and don't broadcast in 1080P. I've been...

1. I've never had an issue with it not working, unlike rain fade and having to climb on the roof to remove snow from my dish (Which is weekly in Northern Maine for six months of the year). I literally just set a ladder on the side of the house to make my trudge up there with a broom. No use...

The Youtube TV DVR is quite a step up from the heated mechanical brick that is the Hopper 3. It's unlimited, free and never needs to be rebooted. It doesn't even use electricity. It just exists in the cloud and records everything I want and everything it thinks I want. The algorithms are quite...

I don't see Dish surviving the onslaught of 5G and LEO satellite internet coming online over the next 5-10 years. They will either adapt or die. I just dumped my $130 per month sub (Hopper 3 + Joey + AT250) because I couldn't watch the Celtics. The side effect from that move was $90 a month in...

For science I did try relinking again and finally got it to change a channel after telling it what room I was in, what device I wanted to change the channel on and what channel I wanted to change to....but it still breaks harmony and smartthings making it useless in my household. Also, the...

Your Dish account is paired to the account(s) listed in your google home app. There are no other settings or options. Edit: So to be clear, it doesn't pair to devices but rather to your master account which is generally your gmail account.

I'm already back to using Alexa. First of all, it breaks Smartthings (harmony) functionality so I can no longer turn on/off TVs or control volume. Half the time it says it can't do that or asks me what device (and I tell it to no avail). The rest of the time, it just starts playing something on...

Ok, thanks. That actually makes me feel better about the situation. It just assumed it was part of their plan rather than a technical limitation. It is blinding! The white literally hurt my eyes from 12' back.

NBC Is Finally Ditching Tape Delays for the Olympics

Sure, I DVR most things as well, but not live sporting events. It's no fun for me to watch something where I already know the result. I can't feasibly stay off the internet, not watch TV and avoid talking to people for the rest of February. The vast majority of people want to watch the...

Dish 4K coverage is going to he delayed a day...making it mostly worthless. Dish, DirecTV and Comcast will deliver Winter Olympics in 4K HDR

Just a note, D* is doing 4K HDR w/ Dolby Atmos next day on demand. It would be worthless to me as I don't have the internet to support it anyway.

4K HDR Olympics. Now you have my attention...

What channel was dish 4K on? It disappeared from my guide.
