    Dish 50.0 remote ROCKS

    The voice control is the best thing ever. It worked on every single command I have given it. Truly amazing technology. Ordered two of them and I'll be ordering two more.

    Audio Dropouts on FS1?

    Yes! Mine did it too when watching Nats Dodgers game 5. Also had small video dropouts.

    Digital audio output on Hopper/Joey 3

    I have my Hopper and Joeys setup with audio receivers-HDMI from the Joey to the receiver then HDMI from the receiver to the TV. My sound is output to 5.1 speaker system from the receiver. Pretty standard setup, right? My question: Would there be any advantage/difference to use the digital...

    Harmony Touch and Hopper/Joey 3 not working at all

    That was it! Set to use IR and now works. Thanks.

    Harmony Touch and Hopper/Joey 3 not working at all

    Both excellent ideas. My suspicion is that the Joey is setup for just RF now and if I enable IR it will work.

    Harmony Touch and Hopper/Joey 3 not working at all

    When I go to myHarmony and setup my Devices there is no option for Hopper/Joey 3.0 and when I try to use the Harmony with my new Joey it doesn't work at all. None of the buttons control the Joey. Can anyone offer some advice besides having to learn all the buttons manually? I would prefer to...

    Yes, it can be setup better. It's been on my to-do list for a while.

    I sure wish I could find a backlit remote control

    We recently got Hopper 3 and the new remote control isn't bad, except I can't see it in the dark, which is the way that I watch 99% of my TV. I wonder if there is any backlit remote control out there which would work well with the Hopper 3. I have a Harmony One in one room of the house and...

    Hopper 3 and the OTA dongle

    Wow I had no idea there's so much more to the story. Thanks for the replies, and the welcome to the forum. I bought a cheap ten buck antenna just to try out the dongle and it works. Picture much better than the Dish provided channels. Hope it continues to work. Frank

    Hopper 3 and the OTA dongle

    So, I'm not happy with the resolution I get watching sports on my Dish. I love most everything else but it seems the compression they use results in much worse picture quality than I had with FIOS. I have a OTA digital dongle and I was going to hook it up but this requires pulling a new cable...
