I use my old JVC stereo receiver to feed my headphones while watching TV on my Hopper. The JVC is behind a closed door in my Home Theater cabinet, which means I have to leave the door open to listen, my wife does not like for me to leave the door open just because I am old and lazy! Is there an...

If I go with the HR44 and HR24 and 3 clients will the clients be able to access the recordings on either the HR44 or HR24? We seldon look at live tv, usually the 3 of us will be watching 3 different or sometimes the same recordings. How many shows can we record at the same time if we are...

I am considering switching from my 2 Dish Hoppers and 2 joeys and Sling Adapter to the new DTV Genie HR44 and 4 Clients, assuming of course this system will be available within 2 months! I have no complaints with the current setup but if I switch I can save over $400.00 with a 2 year contract...

My Joey 2 is incorrectly linked to Hopper 1. My Joey 1 is correctly linked to Hopper 1. How do I change Joey 2 to to link to Hopper 2?

Scott, I don't understand why it works on 2 other Win 7 computers and not this one, does the fact that this is the only one that is 64 bit matter?

I can't find any way to share network in Windows Media Player. I don't remember that I did it on the other 2. What is the procedure? EDIT:I just checked the Properties and it says it is shared with everyone.

I have: Hopper 1 with 1 Joey and Sling adapter. Hopper 2 with 1 Joey. 3 Windows 7 Computers with Windows Media Player, all are accesible to each other using Sharing. When I go to the Home Media screen I only see 2 computers, pressing Refresh does nothing.

Written 11/11/12 I hope this is not information overload but maybe enough clues to help resolve my confusion. Windows Media Center is installed on all computers. We have 2 Hoppers (one with Ehernet cable and sling adapter) and 2 Joeys. iTunes is synced on Desktop 1 (hopper 1), and laptop...

I'll be screaming until manual timers are available, I had 722's for years and depended upon manual timers. Frequently I will see an advertisement for a program that is 10 days to 2 weeks in the future and since the EPG only goes for 9 days I may miss recording the program. It is also invaluable...

Thanks Garys, I never could find anything in the manual so I googled: To pair the remote to the receiver press "System Info" button on the front of the receiver then press the "Pair" button the remote. It works! I think someone on Satellite Guys posted it. I searched before posting but...

I just received a new 40.0 remote to use in another room to avoid having to carry the original remote from room to room to watch a TV mirrored to the Hopper. I have been trying to set up the Mode buttons, when I press any one of the Mode buttons the button lights but no matter how long I hold it...

People who do not have sufficient OTA local channels don't have any reason to complain about the delay. Those with lots of OTA channels and have been using 722's with a good local antenna are truly justified in complaining or not upgrading. First of all I have not upgraded to Hopper yet, but...

I think I did this correctly, see attachment:

I just found out the company he is getting the DSL internet service from has to arrange with AT&T to use the existing lines, it is called Stand Alone service. This is not available in all areas. The guy he was talking to about the DSL service in as much as said "You don't need anything but a DSL...

My son has signed up for Dish and was told he could get DSL internet with a "DSL compatible modem" just by plugging it into a phone jack without having landline phone service. Sounds hokey to me. Any comments?
