    DISH vs DIRECTV

    After switching from Cable to Dish a year ago, I would say the Dish picture looks pretty bad. I am not certain I will continue using Dish once my promotion is over. I've never used DirecTV in my home but from looking at other's DirecTV serivce I believe that DirecTV has a better picture. The...

    Bose QC 35 Headset & Hopper 3

    I am in the market for the Bose QC35 (bluetooth w/noise cancelling). Is anyone using this headset with a Hopper 3? If so does audio play to the headset and TV speakers or is it one of the other? With two kids it is difficult for me to watch TV with all the noise and looking for this as a...

    new software update U321 for Hopper 3

    It appears the option to adjust the Display Format for SD channels now sticks to that option. I used to have to change it to my preferred setting constantly.

    Disney XD HD

    I accidentally came across the Disney XD app on my Hopper 3 just now. Press the Apps button until the Apps screen is maximized --> Scroll to bottom right and select More Video Services. Not sure if this is new with the recent update. There you go Disney XD in HD via the Hopper 3. Great work...

    Netflix broken in 309 on H3?

    Just tried launching Netflix and I get a message after the Netflix splash page "This content can not be displayed because your TV does not support HDCP 2.2.". This is some bulljunk. My H3 input goes into a brand new Denon HDCP 2.2 compliant receiver and out to my TV. My TV is an older Samsung...

    Disney XD HD

    Valid point, that I am already aware of. On the contrary, Disney XD is available in HD along with Disney Jr, and Nick Jr. Dish is the only provider I am aware of (that is a large provider) that does not offer these channels in HD. There is no excuse not to offer them. This has been a...

    Disney XD HD

    There is no reason to not being transmitting HD content exclusively other than legacy TV shows/channels like Boomerang for example.. It's been years since the mandate by the FCC. Having to use hacks to watch a show in HD is ridiculous.

    Hopper 3 - Corrupted Recordings - Error 04

    I've noticed this error too a few times on my H3. For the times it has occurred there seems to be a common issue I've noticed where it was a future airing of a show that I set to record via what the Guide shows. However if I actually tune to that channel/time when the recorded show is supposed...

    buying digital copies of movies

    I started purchasing all my movies through internet stores that sell just the digital copy code (Ultraviolet/Disney Movie Anywhere). I can then watch the movie using Vudu. Much cheaper than buying the disc at a retailer. I don't see any reason for Dish to provide this service. However a...

    4k Joey or Wireless Joey

    Planning to subscribe to Dish in the near future and looking for info to help me decide on getting the new 4k Joey or Wireless Joey for master bedroom. I do not plan on getting a 4k TV for this room and I don't have any issues with Joey to cable outlet connection so I can go either way. About...
