    From DISH - SuperBowl 4K Info

    Can you tell us more Scott? You think it should be available to all, sort of Dish is saying 'thanks for being a Dish customer'. My thinking is those with inexpensive packages can forget about it. Hope I am wrong.

    How to get out of parental control code screen?

    If I turn 'the parental control' feature off and accidentally change to channel to one of the fee based shows it does not start, Right? I am required to decline it to avoid the hassle of calling Dish and claim I made a mistake? No small kids at home or a tv in the guest bedroom. So, we are...

    How to get out of parental control code screen?

    Good morning from a grateful central KY resident who hasn't lost his power! I am hoping there is an easy way to deal with this if you can't remember the code. This morning, after watching local news the wifey wanted to change the channel on TV with joey2. Instead of pressing 209, she pressed...

    Is this feature no longer available?

    This should have been under Dish folder. Waay too early in the dark hours of Tuesday morning!

    Is this feature no longer available?

    In the past, you could select a show within the Guide (that would begin on the same day) and continue watching any channel. Then, Hopper would switch to selected channel. It was very convenient. For instance, I was watching a show. It was around 1:20 pm last Sunday. I opened guide. There was a...

    Can someone help me with activating?

    If you are unable to reach the seller and have him/her deactivate the device, get in touch with eBay and they should be able to reimburse you (assuming they still provide some sort of protection for limited time). I always had good luck with them when I had issues with a seller.

    Remote control with Bose solo

    Does Bose turn itself off after 5 minutes of inactivity? If 'yes'. I say let it be. I am on the same boat with an ancient (12 years?) Vizio soundbar (with 2 Bluetooth rear speakers) that I purchased with 75 inch Vizio tv. I replaced the tv with a Samsung tv but kept the soundbar. With dish...

    Recorded program playback issue

    This issue and the dreadful black screen are probably what I get agitated the most. Both come and go. These problems don't affect everybody. We have been begging Dish to fix them for a long time. Maybe, it is too difficult to rewrite the codes. I hope Charlie didn't tell his crew " Don't...

    Hopper 3 Version 392 is Here

    I wonder why a Dish rep doesn't let us know what the updates are about. Right here. I assume many who work for Dish follow threads here, know what the main concerns are. (The black screen with recordings!!).

    A new problem with recordings

    Yes, it is enabled. If that's the case I probably waited little longer than usual before I moved them into Nature folder. I tried it a minute ago. It worked! I checked the recording date on it. April 6th. Today is 9th. If I am not mistaken I must wait 3 days before moving them. Thank you for...

    A new problem with recordings

    I have Hopper3 and Joey2s. I don't know what is the latest update. If it is necessary I can check the devices later.

    A new problem with recordings

    When I records episodes of a show I create folders and keep them in there. I find it easier. Well, something weird happened yesterday. I record Tom Hanks' the Americas from one of the networks (satellite not OTA). Until yesterday I was able to select and move them into a folder named Nature. I...

    Possible way to use bonus view channels without any guide data

    Speaking of newly offered streaming channels, I have 2 questions... As Boston says you must have an active subscription to download guide to see those channels and what they offer. 1- Are we able to select them in Guide and record them as we do with regular satellite and OTA channels? After...

    Hopper 3 Upgrade Software to vH390

    Every Dish update causes confusion. Most of us have no idea what the improvements are. I would like to see a sticky thread (where people read but can't leave comments) by a Dish employee or moderator to make it simple. Show us new versions for different devices and what the new or fixed features...

    Pixelation on ABC

    Good morning. My internet search shows....... Channel 9 ABC is from Orlando, WFTV. Are these recordings from satellite or OTA? I realize my location, which is central KY does not matter to you. My network recordings from satellite are fine. Hopefully, some fellow Floridians who live close to...
