    Pictures of Joey 3.0?

    Well that’s funny, because if I wanted to play prime video on my dumb terminal monitor I could without some abitrary argument about how it shouldn’t be able to have memory for the sole purpose of locally managing playback. I get what you’re saying but there’s no reason why the joeys shouldn't...

    Pictures of Joey 3.0?

    Okay, why is it so bad for a terminal to have some memory for buffering? It doesn’t take a super computer to do trick play, as you call it. Two, since when do “passive” terminals have codec support? It says so right on the picture. ”support for high efficiency codec” a codec which is used for 4K...

    Pictures of Joey 3.0?

    I dont think I ever said that’s how it works... I was only suggesting that if dish integrated memory on the joeys they could take care of the buffering rather than relying on the hopper to do everything.

    Pictures of Joey 3.0?

    a Lot of problems would be fixed if dish put some memory on the joeys for local buffering. Even if it was just a memory card reader. Put 32 gigs on that bad boy. BOOM 4 days of buffer (that’s a joke on their over compression). But seriously, it wouldn’t be so bad if the hopper acted as a...

    YouTube app on HWS

    it must be a software problem where the app doesn’t know the optical port is present or is disabled. There‘s no programming an app to output audio through different ports depending on the internet speed. 3mbps? Composite audio. 5mbps? Optical. 7mbps!? that‘s hdmi territory. 25mbps!!? Send it...

    YouTube app on HWS

    Funny that the hd and 4k res are listed. I did a little snooping on the yt app a while back. Played a 4k video on an h3 connected directly to my 4k tv and looked at the stats for nerds and shows the resolution at a crisp 720p. Yt videos don’t even play in progressive format.

    Is DiSH in some deal with Verizon?

    In my neck of the desert. Centurylink, has a deal where you can receive a discount if you bundle their internet with a Verizon wireless service and directv satellite service.

    its a separate copy? I thought it converted the original recording to a progressive format.

    Can I connect a Hopper 3 to multiple Joeys through my home Ethernet network?

    Wouldn’t that have to be it’s own network though? or at least have everything hardwired. I’d imagine it generates quite a bit of traffic to still have to deal with internet. I was told that to have the joeys receive the signal over ethernet i had to have 50mbps connection between devices.

    Scripps Stations dispute?

    What dish should do, or people who have dish and access to ota signals, is install ota antennas. More upfront cost with the adapter and antenna, but it pays for itself within the first year of service. Leave the broadcasting charges to the people who have no access to the signal. We’d probably...

    Can I connect a Hopper 3 to multiple Joeys through my home Ethernet network?

    My only experience with this set up was that when I got the hopper installed in my house, the technician installed one of the joeys wrong. He used the wrong cable going from the switch to the joey and it ended up getting the signal from the ethernet cable which I attached on a whim. The way it...

    Is DishAnywhere really as bad as I read?

    Used it to stream from work on Friday while on lunch from a place that has such crappy internet, the upload sometimes hardly registers on the Speedtest app but download is ~10 mbps. Worked just fine, no stuttering, pq was better than I anticipated. Skipped forward and back without a hitch. Also...

    How to get Amazon prime on a Joey

    i was describing the device so as to not confuse people with the 4th gen Apple tv, which btw isn’t the 4K one. The third gen Apple TV doesn’t support dd+ through HDMI.
