    Miss my Dish commercial skip

    I agree. My time is worth the money that I pay to Dish. With my 2 Hopper3 receivers I instantly have access to all of my shows. I spent over 40 minutes using Apple TV to logon, first find the correct network and then find the correct episode and then spent time watching all the commercials...

    Miss my Dish commercial skip

    I agree that I can pay for Paramount+ and watch shows commercial free. Of course that only works for CBS. I would need to set up similar streaming for ABC, NBC, and Fox. Plus I would also need Great American Family, UP network, Hallmark, ESPN, Fox News, USA, Big10, etc. With Dish I press the...

    Miss my Dish commercial skip

    Once again all of my local channel programming was interrupted due to weather alerts. I absolutely love my Dish Hopper commercial skip. I had to use my Apple TV to watch my network programming. Of course streaming the networks means watching all the commercials. I can’t believe that there are 6...

    Dish Wally Is JUNK

    Western arc only currently uses satellites 110 and 119. Satellite 129 is no longer used. Some transponders are used for spot beams and you will only receive the spot beams that are aimed for your location. So you are correctly aimed if you are receiving 110 and 119. Sent from my iPhone using...

    DVR recording question

    Yes, the audio on NBC breaks up at the beginning of the National News at 6:30 PM. I DVR the NBC Nightly News and the audio starts off bad for every recording. I am currently recording the satellite broadcast of channel 4.00 on my Family Room Hopper3. I am going to set up a timer to record...

    DVR recording question

    OTA picture quality depends on how the local broadcaster splits the bandwidth among the subchannels. In Columbus, Ohio some of the subchannels look good while others look really bad. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    4K Events Discussion Thread

    Dish needs to admit that the 4K Joey can not receive any of their 4K HDR channels. But they won’t admit it so their customer support keeps giving out misleading information. They need to scrap the 4K Joeys and allow Joey 4 clients for customers wanting to watch 4K HDR broadcasts on a TV that...

    CBS picture on 540-06 looks great. Much crisper than the 1080i picture on OTA CBS channel. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Dish has Fixed Google Assistant on Hopper3 Receivers

    You asked how I got this to work. I described it in post 1 which I have copied below. I was attempting to do a voice search for a program on my Family Room Hopper3 receiver. A message popped up asking if I wanted to link my Hopper3 to Google Assistant. I agreed. It asked me to open Google...

    Dish has Fixed Google Assistant on Hopper3 Receivers

    Alexa still works well with both of my Hopper 3 and Joey 3 equipment. Alexa allows me to pause, resume, skip ahead xx amount, change channel, and turn off my Dish equipment. Google Assistant using voice commands on my Dish remote can control my Lutron Caseta lights, SwitchBot curtains, bring up...

    Hopper 3 software H370 and Joey 3 J570

    I manually updated both of my Hopper 3 receivers to H370 software and my Joey3 software to J570. The Caller ID and TV Enhancements was shut off on my Living Room Hopper3 receiver after the update. I have a church commitment so I will have to do testing later. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
