New Hopper with Sling installation over the weekend. So far, I love it. PTAT is the bomb. I wonder if there us a way to see recordings as a list instead of app-like visual tiles?

Yippee! Before the holidays, we decided to come back to Dish and originally scheduled installation for the first convenient day which is this Saturday. I just called the contractors and we pushed out the install to the 26th so we can get the new hopper! I'm so glad I checked SatGuys for the...

I'm another of the Absouters who is jumping ship. I called Dish to see what they would offer me and I received the standard $10 off the AT200 offer. I told them about the deal I would get with Direct and the CSR asked when I wanted to cancel Dish, since they couldn't come close to matching it...

Last year we dropped HBO and Showtime and started Netflix. I, too, missed Bill maher's show until I found it as a (mostly) audio podcast thru iTunes. It is usually available by Monday following the broadcast.

I mean that channel 21.3 just shows "Digital Service."

In my area (Madison, WI) Dish doesn't give full program information for our PBS sub-channel that is Create: Call letters: WHA 21.3 Funny thing is that on another, older TV equipped with DTVPal, the Create channels details do show up. Isn't DTVPal a Dish product?

We've been quite happy. The only channel we missed was Comedy Central and now that we get it (even in SD), there is little to persuade us to change to Turbo or another package.

I sub to DishAbsolute and noticed today that SD Comedy Central is showing, yet it doesn't show up in the free preview. Perhaps this means we'll get CC HD, too?

If one is still under contract to Dish and then moves, what happens if there is trouble getting a signal at the new house? Is the contract nullified?

Unfortunately, that's not how it's been working for me. When I've set something up to be taped, it stops taping during the update.

Thanks, E*Dude. I looked and there isn't any option to skip on my 722. Maybe, I'll just find a time after the marathon and set it temporarily for then.

I did a search, but I wasn't able to find an answer to my question. I want to record the True Blood marathon tonight. However, when I've tried to record something in the wee hours when my system is scheduled to update, it doesn't record during the update time. Is there a way to skip a night of...

I de-bundled recently. Just so you know, it takes about a month (until the next billing cycle) to take effect.

On ebay, do a search on completed listings for 622s. This should give you an idea of what they are selling for.

Cool! So, MPEG4 = smaller files?
