Does anyone know since directv is losing Sunday ticket if they’ll be getting the red zone channel, similar to how dish network has it? I’m actually happy that directv is losing Sunday ticket as I’m hoping that I can get red zone for a lower price than having to subscribe to the whole Sunday...

Thanks guys. There was an issue with the service order so the install had to be rescheduled.

Hi there, I'm not entirely familiar with Directv terminology so bear with me here. Getting installed right now. I'm getting a HR-54 from what I've been told. I have one 4k tv. The guy seems extremely reluctant about putting 4k clients in the house. The Hopper I have now is on the 4k tv while...

Hi there, long time Dish customer who has generally been happy with their service, but between losing HBO and now losing Fox Sports I think it might be the last straw. However, I have some questions. First off, I want to ask about local channels. My CBS is owned by Nexstar, and from my...

Hi, I am looking to see if there's a way to change the time the hopper runs the nightly update from 1 AM to 4 AM. I remember back when I had my VIP 722 (or whatever it was) I could change the time. If it isn't possible, is there any chance it is added in the future? Thank you.

Hi there, My hopper with sling seems to be having some issues. I've been watching the NFL Draft, and two times yesterday and once today the hopper just seems to shut down completely. The lights are still on on the front of the receiver, but there is no picture or sound on the TV. I also went to...

I have not heard about this. I tried googling but I did not see anything. What exactly are you talking about because it sounds interesting.

if I'm slinging a program onto my iPad from the same network that my Hopper is on, does it use my internet data?

The title is pretty much the question. Is it possible to move a recording from the Hopper to a 722K using an external hard drive? I know it's possible to move the recording from the 722K to the Hopper, but I need to know if it works the other way around. Thanks.

I took a picture of what the screen looks like when it is malfunctioning on the joey and wireless joey. The hopper is still displaying a normal image. I sure hope someone can help explain what is happening. I never have much luck when a technician comes out. Thank you.

MoCa shows to be good. Not full strength, but good.

Hi I don't know exactly how to explain this, but my Hopper appears to be having issues sending signals out to my Joeys. On the wireless Joey and the regular Joey, they both are not showing tv signal. Mostly it is black, but then it comes with a pixelated mess of green and a frame of what is...

That's strange. I was only person in the house when the kangaroo was on. All the other TVs were off and I assume that the tubers were all off too. The kangaroo was there even when I changed channels. I was able to turn it off by playing a show on the DVR and then stopping the playback. Sure...

How do I get rid of that kangaroo icon in lower right corner? It randomly shows up. Not even sure what it's for but I don't like it. This is for hopper with sling.

It was set to RF. That fixed it. Thanks a bunch! Just out of curiosity, what is difference between line and RF? Besides, you know, making Dolby Digital not work on HBO.
