Why would Dish design a system to have the date displayed when first activated that disappears the net day? My old receiver always had the date, should have kept that one.

The date in the program guide description is on most shows, now after one day they are all gone not on any program. Have to go into info to see date now.

gone this morning

Not surprising that someone at Dish doesn't know what their talking about.

Does anybody have the date shown like in my pictures?

She had me go into diagnostics-updates and disable inactivity standby. She said that has something to do with updates. I think she said updates only happen when receiver turns itself off during the night. I will see if date is there tomorrow.

I am going to try disabling nightly updates. Helpful girl at Dish suggested trying that.

Here are some pictures after I first installed my new replacement Hopper. As you can see the date is clearly shown in the guide's preview of the show at the top. Today Show year 2016. Second photo,Tremors 2 on AMC year 1996. Tomorrow morning year will be gone. I really miss the year, lets me...

Received a new Hopper yesterday (one of my three turners was not working) hooked everything up, went through all the set up and The date is in the program preview at the top of the guide page. Tomorrow morning it will be gone and no one can tell me why or how to keep it there.

No I am looking in the guide. Wonder why the date appears in the program description at the top when viewing the guide then disappears the next day?

When first hooking my new hopper up the year is shown in that description at the top and it is gone the next day. Just want to figure out how to keep it. It must happen after the Hopper shuts itself off after so long with no activity.

Talked to Dish today and they are sending me another Hopper. This will be the fourth one in less then a month. Wish I could wait until the Hopper 3 next month.

Been longer that that it hasn't came back

When I received a new Hopper replacement after hooking it up I was glad to see the year of a program was displayed in the preview at the top of the menu guide. Next morning date was gone. Dish tech support is NO help. Any idea whats going on or how to get it back?
