    4K HDCP Errors (Hopper 3 and Joey 4K)

    I feel your pain. I had posted here a month or so ago with basically the same situation you have. After a lot of time on the phone, the rep went up the chain to a tech rep and I was then told that this is a known issue that they've been working on. On a positive note, I'm not sure if it was...

    4K HDCP Errors (Hopper 3 and Joey 4K)

    I checked out Thursday Night Football and was greeted with an HDCP error screen as usual, but this time it asked to lower the resolution. I chose to do that and was at least able to watch the game. This was new though, perhaps Dish Networks temporary workaround to their underlying software issue?

    4K HDCP Errors (Hopper 3 and Joey 4K)

    I've been dealing with this same HDCP issue (1559) for well over a year. Prior to that, I was able to record and watch 4K on my Hopper 3. Then something happened, I assume a software update, and from that point forward I can watch for perhaps 30 seconds and then the error screen appears. I...

    4K Events Discussion Thread

    Thanks, I don't think it's my HDMI cable either. It's an optical HDMI cable, so I can't get anything better. Nothing has changed in my setup since everything worked to now. I do have a second HDMI cable running to my projector, but accessing the back of my receiver is an hour plus job, but I...

    4K Events Discussion Thread

    I haven't watched much 4K through my Hopper because there simply isn't much, but I had recorded and watched the Super Bowl last year along with Nebraska at Minnesota game from 10/12/19. I was looking forward to watching the Rams at Seahawks in 4K after I got home, but it won't play. After a...

    And the "significant other" thinks?

    Surprisingly, my wife has been relatively silent about the transition too. I occasionally still hear about the transition from the old DTV Tivo based DVR though. THAT was a rough one for her.

    Hopper 3/Carbon Folders

    I created a folder for my wife's shows and changed her timers so that they're all supposed to go into the folder. It seems that at first they don't automatically do that. I have to go into one of the menus and add the show to the folder manually. Then it seems to stick.

    Official - I have a Hopper 3 Thread!

    Try one of the other USB ports. Mine wasn't being recognized either, I switched ports, gave it minute or so, and the pop-up came on screen indicating a USB device was found.

    Official - I have a Hopper 3 Thread!

    I replaced two Hoppers with Sling and two Joey's with a Hopper 3 and two Joey 2's. I was on the DIRT Hopper waiting list, but ended up requesting the upgrades through online chat. I get my Dish service (billing) through my phone company & thought it would be easier that way. The tech got...

    Duplicate thumbnails on recording. Dirt Help Please

    Thanks all for the responses. In the end it seems that there's not much I can do, or any support available from Dish that will take care of this issue.

    Duplicate thumbnails on recording. Dirt Help Please

    I'm fairly sure they're recordings made on the original Hopper. I haven't noticed this issue on current recordings. Still hoping for a software fix, it's not worth the hassle of changing out the Hopper for a different one.

    Duplicate thumbnails on recording. Dirt Help Please

    Thanks for the responses. This has been happening since I got the Hopper w/sling. I figured the issue would get fixed along with the many software updates that have taken place over the past year or so, but the updates have slowed considerably and nothing has fixed this issue, at least not for...

    Duplicate thumbnails on recording. Dirt Help Please

    One would think I have a thing for Halle Berry in Swordfish. And I do. Can you blame me. :biggrin2 Just not THIS big of a thing. The photo shows 15 of MANY recordings that all have the thumbnail from Swordfish. What can I do to correct this? It's been going on since I swapped my original...
