Well after reading the U336 update thread I decided to see if I can get the external hard drives to work and do the U336 update and clicked the button. 20 minutes later and back up it is. I didn't test the hard drives yet, it's late. But I can tell you that the U336 is possibly based off the...

I also can confirm that Netflix 5.1 is back over HDMI as well. Mine is now U334. I don't think it's the same code as U331 since the Netflix app still reset and prompts for login before the common error I was getting. Well that and a DVR bug I never saw before. Selected a recorded show to record...

Well I guess I was told the 13th since I called about the external hard drive not working, this still concerns me. I wonder if the hopper go will work when I receive it? It was free for the holiday promotion, but I would think since it's USB based that it would be recognized as an external and...

I was told not to expect it until the 13th, but received it in the 10th. So my guess is they expected everyone to have to have it by the 13th? I did have the H3 reset and self reboot on me last night watching a DVR program, so not sure how stable it is. I hope this was a one time thing. I guess...

No problem. I ended up digging deep when mine was installed last week and Netflix gave me the UI-113 error and YouTube would either reset the box from a kernel panic sometimes. When youtube did work it always said loading and stats for nerds showed a slow caching. The thing that fixed Netflix...

How fast is your download speed from your ISP? What do you run, cable, ADSL, or ??? Are you using wireless or eithernet? If you on a router behind your modem, what router do you have? A few things to check that I noticed the Hopper 3 doesn't like. I'm also new, about 2 weeks with the hopper 3...

So what is DIRT. As a new dish customer that is tech savvy I feel like a sticky post for these acronyms on this site need to be created. I would make it, but I haven't figured out 75% of them yet. H3, EHD, 50.0, bla bla bla. Yes these I finally figured out. Hopper three, external HD and 50...

My hopper 3 is only a week old, new customer also. Yes, the info did say 5.1 Dolby, and yes the receiver was receiving a 5.1 Dolby signal to decode over HDMI. This would only work if you ran he Hopper into the receiver, then the receiver output to the TV also via HDMI. It had full 5.1 surround...

Thnaks. So if I enable the minim for PTAT like you describe. Example I enable fox to record on Monday and save for two days even if their isn't any shows I want to see on Monday fox. Then by doing this it enables the auto skip for all recorded shows, even the ones I have manually set in the...

Pat, thanks for the reply. I was told that the auto skip is after 24 hours, this is what I tried and only new and some coking show had the auto skip. No one mentioned, not even dish when they were using as part of their sales pitch, that some shows could take up to 7 days. So if I understand you...

I installed dish and the hopper 3 three days ago. I think I've found Netflix to me network related, but more on that after I do more testing. I played with setting and sniffed my network packets for 5 hours and I hope imresolved the Netflix issue. As for YouTube, well it broke again. It gets...

I was just going to ask about that, turning off Prime Time. I've had my hopper 3 for three days now and already noticed issues with PTAT. I now have folders that say 5 on it for 5 recordings supposedly but I know it only has 4 recordings in it. When I go into the folder and back out it says...

Ok, I had some time to play tonight. Equptment is as follows Hopper 3 Samsung UN55D8000Y Yamaha RX-V671 Remotes tested are 50.0 (voice remote) and the 52.0 (default hoooer 3 remote) Setting on the Hopper 3: NOTE: All codes used were found by searching for the device name in the Hopper 3 GUI...

I should have mentioned that the volume works, it will not power on and only power off. At this point since it's a new install I will have to look into the best way to tiger the unit to power on from another device over the HDMI communication. It took some tinkering before to get direct TV...

It might help if you list the model of your Yamaha receiver. Most manufacturers stays to the same inferred code. I have two yamahas, and they both respond with 176, but my dish was just installed two days ago. I also have thre Samsung receivers and they are years apart, yet they all work with...
