I agree. We have several programs recorded that are over 9 months old. Having a local DVR is a plus, especially the Hopper 3. I think it is probably the best DVR on the market.

So, on Dish there is the screen that says "Our contract with Disney has expired. Contact Disney. Call 8185601000." When I call that number that Dish is giving their customers, a recording says to press 1 if you are a Dish customer. So I press 1. A recording gives a spiel for their case, and says...

I have it set like that now. And it works well when watching TV on the Hopper. The problems occurs when I select a different input to the TV like the Chromecast. The Volume on the 54.0 then tries to control the TV volume, not the Vizio Soundbar volume.

I have the Hopper 3 with the 54.0 remote. I recently purchased a Vizio Soundbar from Costco. I was able to program the remote to control the Vizio Soundbar volume when watching the Hopper 3. But, when I use the 54.0 to switch the TV input to the Blurray player or the Roku box, the 54.0...

Thank you!

Thank you!

I have the Hopper 3, and record the PTAT channels. If I install the OTA Adapter with dual tuners, will the Hopper 3 still record all four local channels? Thanks,

I switched from DirecTV to Dish Network last week. The signal loss due to rain/clouds is unbearable. I had Dish about 4 years ago with Hopper 1, and signal loss was very minimal. Now, with Hopper 3, I am trying to think of ways to improve the signal. I am located in central Tennessee. The...

anyone experienced "jumping" on rewind and fast forward? I have HR54-700, one C41W-100, one WVBR0-25, and two C51-700. The jumping is intermittent, and has occurred only on the two C51-700 units. While watching a program, pressing the rewind or fast-forward may result in immediately going to the...

I had been a Dish customer for 5 years. I switched to DirecTV to save a little money. After being on DirecTV for 2 weeks, here are a few observations. Things I liked about the Hopper (not on Genie): Netflix app built-in Prime Time Anytime "Fast" fast-forward Dish Anywhere - watch my recorded...

I contacted DirecTV Customer Service today about the GenieGo. Here is the response: "It looks like you're wondering about ordering a GenieGO and it's great to hear that you're interested in this equipment! To ensure all of our customers get to experience our latest equipment and technology with...

Switched from Dish to DirecTV yesterday. The HR54 receiver was installed. I had the Ethernet cable ready for the installer to plug it in. It had been on the Dish Hopper. Long after the installer left, I noticed that he didn't plug the Ethernet cable in to the Genie. Also, in the basement next...

several folks at our office near Nashville have the "old BellSouth fiber" issue. Slow DSL is available - no U-verse service. So, does anyone know the bottom-line issue? Is it the type of fiber that is incompatible, or is it the mux equipment "Mesa 4" or "Tellabs 1150" that is unavailable or...

just to clarify, "if you have LOS issues immediately to the left of your current E* dish, you could possibly have a problem", is this to the left as standing behind the dish looking toward the sky in it's direction? I want to be able to record 5 channels simultanoeusly with the Genie DVR, so...

Thanks to both replies! This is encouraging news. :)
