    DISH Introduces Flex Pack

    Really liking this Flex Pack. Since I travel around so much, I'm rarely at home, so I downgraded from everything to the 120+ pack with HBO. Still had channels I didn't need, but going to Flex which still has the channels I want and just the locals pack, saving $25 a month!

    Hopper with Sling S514 Update

    I hit up DIRT to find out what's going on and supposedly 515 is coming by next week and it should be the major release for everyone who didn't get upgraded, like me :( Wish I could get 514 pushed while i'm away!

    OTA stop recording shows

    There is no way to do a manual recording of these without being at the actual unit, correct? Doesn't seem like the Dish Anywhere website or app lets you do it. Going to be on vacation for a bit so it looks like I will only be able to do a week's worth of recording into it, before I am unable to...

    OTA stop recording shows

    I submitted the report to dirt, along with many others, on May 22nd. I messaged asking for an update on June 18th and got this reply: "I do not have any new updates. Our engineers are working on the issue."

    OTA stop recording shows

    Recent software history doesn't really matter, since whenever there is a huge bug, they usually fix it in a few days, like the last OTA bug.

    OTA stop recording shows

    Severely disappointed this has not been fixed, been over an entire month now. I remember when OTA video was stuttering, it was fixed in days. Now just getting recordings working on -02 and greater OTA channels is still not fixed...

    Vital Program Information Download S503.

    Manual OTA recordings work fine, it's general timers by show that don't work.

    Vital Program Information Download S503.

    Unfortunately the major bug with 502 where you can't make new timers for OTA channels (aside from manual) and old timers don't work, is still present in 503. So i would expect another new version pretty soon.

    Hopper with Sling Software Version S502 is Out

    I submitted a report too. Can't record on any OTA channel. They are having a horrible track record with OTA lately; one software makes all the OTA stutter; they send out a fix, next software prevents you from recording OTA...seems like OTA is not a heavy focus in testing...

    Hopper with Sling Software Version S502 is Out

    Just got S502 last night. I have about 12 timers set for new and new/reruns for 28.4 NHK. Every single one of them is now disabled and reporting "No Timers Scheduled" when checking the timer schedule. Full signal, have full guide data. Two manual "once a week" recordings I have on another OTA...

    Many problems trying to get Dish installed

    Bear with me, trying to piece together the story through my parents... Basically my parents are really fed up with cable and wanted to switch to Dish. One HWS and two Joeys. They called, set up an appointment, had a tech come over and they refused to install it since there was a "splitter...

    HWS won't play transferred shows anymore, stuck on "Event Playback Finished"

    Exactly. It's been about 6 years since this features was introduced and it still works far from perfectly, that's completely unacceptable. I can understand maybe back at the beginning when I had the 622 and tried to transfer to the 922 and had a similar issue, but considering how long they had...

    HWS won't play transferred shows anymore, stuck on "Event Playback Finished"

    Note to Dish support: I already talked to stephenh@DISH about this via PM and he sent a report, so i'm just seeing if any other users have this problem. I had a VIP922. Just got my new HWS installed yesterday and spent the rest of the day transferring over my shows. Upon completion, of course...

    TurboHD light?

    I taped over it. Unfortunately this is in my bedroom, so it's like a bright blue flashlight shining on me at night, haha.
