    More and more streaming FAST channels on DISH

    I've been checking out some of these bonusview channels. Most seem like crap, a few are interesting but what is the deal with the non-commercial "commercial breaks" that just say "We will be right back" that last 2 minutes. That seems kind of pointless.

    Unable to manage recordings on external hard drive with Hopper 3

    I have reset the hopper multiple times, unplugged it and it has no effect. All the EHD's are still showing no files to manage when you try to manage them.

    Unable to manage recordings on external hard drive with Hopper 3

    Has anyone experienced this? When I select one of my external hard drives and go to manage recordings, it shows no events to display. The drive has recordings on it and I can watch them. I would like to move some of them back to the Hopper. I did this with recordings about 2 - 3 weeks ago and it...

    Software update on Joey 3

    I noticed that both my Hopper 3 and Joey 3 had not had software updated since January. I was able to force an update on the Hopper 3 but the Joey 3 still shows no updates since January. Is there a way to force an update on the Joey? I looked under tools and found nothing for the Joey. Thanks in...

    Problem programming 54.0 remote

    I am trying to program my 54.0 remote from my Joey 3 in the bedroom to control the volume on the new Roku Streambar Pro that I purchased. There is no option for Roku as a device manufacturer so I am using teaching mode. The remote seems to accept the command from the Roku remote (light flashes)...

    Identical recorded titles now problematic

    I am noticing this on my Hopper 3 and on my connected EHD's. So deleting them and restoring them fixed it? I was hoping they would fix the software issue that caused it but I know that may take years. I have different versions of the same movie titles, some were filmed at different times (like...

    Random freezing of video

    I saw those topics but due to the age of the threads (one goes back to 2006) I didn't think they would be related to the current problem.

    Random freezing of video

    Has anyone noticed random freezing? I have seen it on different channels, TCM, Travel, some of the movie channels. The video and audio will freeze for a second or two before continuing. Have noticed it over the last week or two.

    Dish/Hopper 3 w/ 77" OLED

    I am very happy with the 77" Sony, it has a beautiful picture. If you have room for it I would recommend it. I am waiting for the couple of UHD Blu-ray discs I ordered to arrive to see what it can do with a top notch source. It looks good with the Roku Ultra I have attached but have not viewed...

    Dish/Hopper 3 w/ 77" OLED

    Costco has been lowering the price on the 77" Sony. I jumped when I got it for $2800 plus a $500 Costco gift card. I see now they have lowered the price to $2600 with no other incentives.

    Dish/Hopper 3 w/ 77" OLED

    I just got a Sony XR-77A80CJ tv to replace my 65" Panasonic VT60. I have the Hopper 3. It looks good. Depending on the channel and programming. Movie channels look the best, depending on the age of the movie and quality of the transfer. It is a little softer than my 65" plasma but it is a good...

    I honestly don't know, I don't watch any SD channels although I have a couple of them in my favorites list. I will check it out tonight when I get home and see what it does.
