I received my Hopper 3 last week. I use a Harmony 650 remote. The remote works fine with no changes but it seems the IR on the Hopper 3 is less sensitive than my old Hopper s/Sling and I'm having to switch between my Harmony and the Dish remote. (I want to stay with the Harmony remote because of...

I am interested in an upgrade.

I would like to be contacted about a possible upgrade. I currently have a Hopper with Sling and 1 Joey.

I know this does not solve the root problem, but I'm using a Harmony remote with my Hopper w/Sling. It allows me to turn on/set the right inputs/control and turn off all my devices which include the Hopper w/Slide, a Sumsung TV, an Onyko receiver and a Samsung Blue Ray player with a single...

Like others, now that the OTA adapter is out I'm considering an upgrade to a Hopper. I currently have a 722, one HD TV and one non-HD TV. I like the 722 as it can feed both TVs without having to pay for an additional outlet. If I read the Hopper information correctly, I would have to upgrade to...

I admit I'm seeing a lot more long waits on BB than I did no Netflix. I put Water for Elephants on the queue over a month ago and still showed very long wait. In fact I waited long enough that I was able to get it at RedBox instead.

By the way, mine changed to Blockbuster Movie Pass, without a software rev change.

I just updated my 622 with a 722k. When I hit the DVR button the menu still says Dish Platinum while I thought that menu option should read BlockBuster Movie Pass. I do have access to Blockbuster Movie pass and have used it on-line and for DVDs. Dish tech support says that the menu should ready...

I just went through a replacement for the exact same reasons. I placed the call on July 3rd and received the new receiver on July 9th. It actually shipped on July 6th. Of course I placed my call over a holiday weekend so your mileage may vary. Replacement was a 622, not a 722.

same problem I have the same problem as you do with almost exactly the same setup, expect for a Dish 300 for 61.5 and a SW64. If after running the switch test you select save you'll get the result of the switch test. In my case it shows that I've lost input 2 from the Dish 300. I'm betting a...

I have a 622. Recently I went to watch a recording of an HD show on the TV2 output on my SD TV. It was like watching the show in full zoom mode, with portions of the display cut off. Does anyone know of anyway to watch an HD recording on an SD TV and still get the entire picture? Thanks in...

Actually for those of us with any of the HD packages it seems to be a $10 increase. I currently have the following DishHD Gold w/Locals : 74.99 Leased Receiver fee : 6.00 DVR Service fee : 5.98 -------------------------------------- Total...

I had a similiar problem with my TV. I found an aspect ratio setting on the tv that defaults to 6x9. I have to reset it to 4x3 every time I turn on the TV as it does not maintain the setting once turned off (my harmany remote does that for me). I have the 622 set on 4x3 #2. This combination...

I just upgraded my 522 to a 622. The 522 was leased, my dish is owned. Since I did not lease everything I was not elgible for the $10 a month credit but did get the upgrade for $199. They did not take the 522 at the time of the 622 install. I'm assuming that I'll get an empty box to return it...

I have been using a 680 for a couple of years. I just upgraded my 522 to a 622 and had very little problem changing the remote. I did have to reconfigure my activities to use the 622 and set up a couple of buttons (I had to map the record button to the DVR function and learn the format and live...
