Not sure if you are talking Google, but if so, you should be able to open the Home app and assign unique Nicknames to each of them. I have 2 Joeys, and I just nicknamed them Joey 1 and Joey 2. You can also assign rooms to each of them in the Home app, too. Google is reported to be releasing room...

Thanks. What I'm really going for here is to hear from any other users in this community that they are, or aren't experiencing this problem, that Google Voice Assistant on Dish errors when given a command to switch to a channel number. I want to be able to isolate whether I may have a localized...

Could you share where it has been reported? I've been searching for something about it for the last couple of days, but found nothing. I would really appreciate knowing what that source is, for future reference.

Since Wednesday, Google Assistant errors off for me on any voice command to switch to a channel number. Channel names work fine. Am I the only one experiencing that problem?

Another few years and we probably will be able to just think "ESPN" and it will switch. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

I'm not seeing all of that verbosity and multi-room changes so far. If I say "switch the Hopper to CNN", it changes the hopper to CNN and responds almost instantly with "OK, switching to CNN on the Hopper". If I say "Switch Joey 2 to NBC", it switches Joey 2 to NBC and responds with "Switching...

Thanks. That worked for us. I had a feeling that it had something to do with the contract dispute with Capitol Broadcasting, but it hadn't occurred to me that I could enable or disable the individual networks that way.

I'm a current customer, out of contract, and want to replace my pair of 722's with a Hopper with sling, an OTA Module and 2 Joeys. (I'm assuming the Hopper doesn't come with an OTA input, except as an option.) I'm also assuming the purpose of this mechanism is to avoid having to go through the...

Logitech has it available for $99. The price shows initially as $299, but it will go to $99 when you put it in the cart for purchase. Logitech Revue

Thanks for the source link. I think Google is taking the right action to accelerate adoption. I alerted my brother to the price drop. He and his wife have been considering a purchase - now he will have a better reason to buy one. Sent from my DROIDX using Tapatalk

I don't see the $99 price in Amazon. Where did you see the price or the announcement? Sent from my DROIDX using Tapatalk

That price drop should make it a much more compelling buy. Assuming the Revue has sufficient horsepower to support the update, I agree it is a very good deal. We've been pretty happy with ours. It's not perfect, but we use ours every day for Amazon Instant Video, Netflix, Music play, and...

You can probably put this in the category of really dumb questions, but I've been assuming that HBOGO and MAXGO will only be available to HBO and MAX subscribers - true?

There is also the interests of the local broadcasters. Internet alternative paths such as Google TV are a direct revenue threat to them, and when and if they become common, could destroy them, and damage the network infrastructure. Long term, I think that is what will actually happen, and...

There's still a $30-$50 differential between those prices and the DISH discount offer at $179, and I was told in an earlier post on this thread that you can cancel the $4 monthly subscription with minimal loss of integration, so it could still be relevant for anyone on a budget. I don't doubt...
