See if your TV has sync setting. I am able to sync to H3 using the Vizio TV settings, under audio.

Be aware that the "problem" with your equipment (not their) is the same for most Bluetooth devices. Otherwords, it is the Hopper. I tried to get fixes for the same issue that was happing with multiple TV / soundbars and somehow it is always my equipment not theirs.

The tv audio is always muted. Soundbar conects to H3 by bluetooth.

I now have the Bluetooth in the menu. It took several boots to get it. But now when paired to H3, the volume has to be twice the previous version. Since I have to pair with the H3 every time I turn on the TV, it starts at twice the volume level until I can re pair to the H3. Rendered the...

The settings menu no longer has an option to connect to Bluetooth. I cannot connect to my soundbar. Has anyone found a way to do this? Thanks

Well I didn't get 309 last night. Still 308. But I did get 2 more error 4 recordings. At least dish is making sure everyone gets something.

The part of this issue that is interesting is that despite the fact recordings are failing, my dish bill still shows a DVR fee. I believe that if dish were refunding all those fees for a DVR that is unreliable for recording, there would be a bigger sense of urgency in getting this fixed.

I have not had 1 timer to fire since Thursday night. PTAT timers are ok but not one show from single or reoccuring. I have done both reset and plug boots. In the schedule it shows it as having been recorded.

Check the number of timers you have. Mine acted similar when I transferred 194 timers into the H3. It will allow only 200 timers, so the number of available tuners will not make a difference if you are at your timer limit.

I did have a slingbox with an old H2000 and the timers from my HWS were transferred to the H3. Thanks.

Sunday night recordings had the same thing. There were recordings that wouldn't play. In the bottom right corner it would show the recording was recorded by a serial number ending 94 95. The OK recordings stated they were recorded by "Living Room 1".

I had contacted Dish Tech support because my new H3 would allow only 5 timers to be created. When I tried to set up the 6th timer I would get a box that stated "Timer creation failed. Try again later". Dish could find no solution and had no record of this problem, so they set up an RA to replace...

Thanks for the replies and advice. I thought at first that this was part of the waiting that comes with a new receiver. I went through that process with at least 3 H1s and a HWS. I called dish tech service as all indications were the install and service were correct. I talked with 2 different...

I understand not having icons for awhile is a waiting game. Dish considers not having over half of your tuners available a hardware issue. Waiting wont fix a hardware issue.

I had an H3 installed this morning. The install went well. Ran new cabling, added a wing (500 dish) for the 77° locals, got to keep the 40.0 remote. Signal strength is higher with the hybrid. The hub was put by the TV not by the dishes. Checked the TV activity screen and it shows 2 tuners not...
