    Hopper 3 problems - Hardware or Software?

    Hopper 3 problems - Hardware or Software?

    Thanks. In addition to the freezing and going black while watching, there have also been shows that have not recorded. The show will appear in the DVR Recordings but nothing plays. That also sounds like a connection or alignment issue. I'll have them schedule a service call.

    Genie Software update 0xa72 Sluggish

    My HR44/200 was updated in 10/13/15 to 0xa72. The DVR functions are acting very sluggish now. I did a hard-reboot, but no improvement. Anyone else having the same issue?

    GSN airs more original programming today, but used to air mostly classics. Sundance is another channel that needs to be updated to HD on Direct. Posted Via The FREE SatelliteGuys Reader App!
