    Why does dish network down convert some channels to SD?

    I have the Jade TVB International package and on some channels, there are SD and HD versions, I prefer the SD versions when recording to the DVR as it allows me to record more. Some have streaming version of the channel as well.

    Hopper 3 Software H375

    Thanks, I encountered it recently once or twice after I didn't watch 4 days worth of recordings. The free space was always 119GB or 120GB.

    Hi everyone!

    Welcome! There are several things I hope I can mention... On the Hopper 3, it appears with 120GB free space remaining on the HDD, the Hopper 3 will think it's 100% full With the Hopper+, there should be the screen modes added like Zoom, etc which was there without the Hopper+. Also, the PIP...

    Hopper 3 Software H375

    Josh.M - Is it by design that the Hopper 3 will stop all recordings in progress when it reaches 120GB of remaining space on the HDD or is it a bug?

    Teardown video/photos of Hopper 3 or similar receivers

    Maybe in reality, they use different manufacturers for the HDs as this was as of 2015/2016 and the HD manufacturers can always discontinue products and come up with new models. And look at this post where the Hopper 3's HDD is a Western Digital WD20EURX-57T0FY1...

    Teardown video/photos of Hopper 3 or similar receivers

    That is a Hopper 3, I wonder if they all use Toshiba 2TB inside, always thought it would be Seagate or Western Digital.

    Hopper 3 Software H375

    Thanks to the thread, I manually updated Hopper 3 from H374 to H375 and then manually updated the Hopper+ by manual Check Updates on the About menu from P12801 to P12803, do not think P12802 existed as I checked only a few days ago.

    Teardown video/photos of Hopper 3 or similar receivers

    Take a look here: https://fccid.io/DKN1018 There are internal photos at three different places, not sure if it's 100% the same or not: 1) 1018 BT + ZIGBEE and WLAN DTS/UNII a/b/g/n MIMO Satellite Set Top Box Teardown Internal Photos ID082x Echostar Technologies 2) 1018 BT + ZIGBEE and WLAN...

    Hopper 3 Cooling fan

    The fan may not be completely gone as one can always replace the lubricant with engine oil after cleaning the old lubricant out.

    Teardown video/photos of Hopper 3 or similar receivers

    I too would want to know what it looks like inside (H3 and other things like the Hopper+), curiosity kills as the saying goes. I always thought the FCC would also have docs on it with photos.

    Newest H3 software.

    On the H+, not sure is it because of P12801 or H374 but it seems the nightly reboots is only rebooting the H+ and not the H3 as it will reboot with the something is not right and also, the recordings recorded during the nightly reboots as I have something from 12:45AM-3:15AM when nightly reboot...

    The Hopper 3 will report it is full and stop all recordings once it goes below 120GB of free space.

    Hopper 3 H373 update 04/24/2024

    I think if you can rewind, or go back 10 seconds or even skip, it's satellite. Stream will not allow those functions.

    Hopper 3 H373 update 04/24/2024

    Hard to say as it says "See the current list of channels that can be streamed via your Hopper’s internet connection:" which seems to be more about streaming only in general than Signal Protection channels as their list does include BBC News in the list as you did say in the post I quoted...

    Hopper 3 H373 update 04/24/2024

    Not complete. The complete list is in the guide where instead of where the HD and SD under the channel number, it will have the word "STREAM".

    Hopper+ - Freezes Live TV when TV powered on when HDR is turned on

    This problem had been fixed with the Hopper Plus software that came out after P12407 in the P124xx series and remains fixed in P12506 and P12509 so it no longer freezes when the TV is turned on while the Hopper 3/Hopper Plus are still turned on.

    Hopper 3 setup with Joey Plus issue

    I figured out how to force the update as well as putting the Hopper in Standby. Only posting this as I have not read the forums since November-December 2023. The lag no longer exists I think and when powering on the TV, it no longer pauses the live feed when the Hopper 3/Hopper+ are powered on...

    Hopper+ - Freezes Live TV when TV powered on when HDR is turned on

    For me, it's the Hopper+ because the problem only happened when I had the Hopper+ connected which was a few days at the end of May 2023 when the Hopper+ was installed. It doesn't happen when the Hopper+ is disconnected and removed from the equation so only the TV was directly connected to the...

    Hopper+ - Freezes Live TV when TV powered on when HDR is turned on

    On my Hopper 3 (software H367) with Hopper+ (software P12407) - whenever I turned on the TV (LG 65EF9500 3D OLED) regardless if it's from the front panel or with any remote (DISH, Amazon Firestick, XFinity) - the live tv will completely freeze at the same time the TV shows HDR On so it appears...

    loss of service

    Only bad thing is didn't they add new holes for Directv for mounting the new Directv dish and also keeping it there without Directv service. The other thing is wouldn't she still be under contract with Directv now?

    External hard drive now not recognized by 722k

    That's true too and hopefully it's only bad superblock(s) and nothing severe.

    Anything new in H367?

    That one is a false alarm as in one part of the video for a brief one minute near the end, it shows DISH with a message that they are sorry for the interruption for service, they are aware of the issue and will get things working as fast as possible.
