    U237: Received night before last...

    So my HWS got the latest update. Since I don't really have any issues with my setup I don't bother with checking anything. Just an FYI for anyone who cares..

    Harmony Elite/HWS How do you add skip fwd/bk functions

    Purchased new Harmony Elite/Hub to replace my still working Harmony One(I know dumb..) The buttons on the Elite work for fast forwarding and back but the skip buttons that are on the DISH remote and also as buttons on my One remote are not available on the Elite. So how have folks set this up...

    Update to CUI using Channel 9607 Method

    Apologies if this is old news but has anyone used the subject matter to update to the CUI? I'm not inclined to get the CUI at this point but it seems pretty straight forward compared to the keystokes. I've included 2 pics.

    My DISH Voice - eMail

    So how many people are receiving the subject email? Something new or are they just getting to me after all these years. It starts with a survey(of course) and a chance to offer opinions from time to time in a somewhat club motif. Also the dangle of being entered into a drawing to win a $150...

    Bizarre Hopper Daily Schedule anomoly

    OK so for the last couple of days my daily schedule on my HWS has had this issue... The odd Daily menu problem that existed with S328 was corrected with S330 for me but this is new. I did the usual and rebooted both warm and cold to try and fix but nothing changes. It doesn't seem to...

    Release 330 on my Hopper/S this morning

    This morning I just happen to do a menu-menu button pick on my Harmony One and noticed that I now have 330. What was different was that in previous updates there was always a banner stating that my software was updated when I turned on the Hopper. Not this time. No big deal. The only thing...

    Dish Hopper Survey

    Yesterday I received an email by Dish to take a survey regarding my recent upgrade to a Hopper/S. Multiple questions about features, suggestions etc.. Am I right that most if not all new Hopper owners get this sometime after activating their receiver(2+ months for me).

    Waiting for a box to return my leased 622

    OK I upgraded to a Hopper back on Saturday May 11th. During the activation process I asked would Dish be sending me a box so I could ship back my leased 622. The Dish rep said yes. She verified my address to ship the box to. I thought everything was ok. Well as of today no box. Did the...

    Hopper Installed!

    My lone Hopper was installed yesterday(5/11). Great technician from Dish! When he arrived we did a complete walkaround looking at the dish(EA) and the wiring... Hmm that had to go. Same wiring from 2000. Installed were new wiring and connectors from the dish(2nd floor porch roof back of...

    What a fiasco with ordering a Hopper from Dish Depot.

    Wow... My Receiver showed up today..... Not a Hopper with Sling I ordered but a VIP922 with Sling! WTF! I'm totally ripped! My receipt says Hopper/Sling. I have already sent off an email to Dish Depot :mad:

    Use two EHDs on a Hopper simultaneously

    Have a single Hopper coming. I see that there are two USB ports on the rear. Can I connect both my EHD's and have them both powered up or is it still one at a time? Thanks

    Thinking of going from a 622 to a Hopper - Worth doing?

    So my third 622 is showing signs of failing. Not enough though to make this a critical decision at this time but with prices increases coming..... I only run my 622 in single mode. Any upgrade done via DISH for other than a Hopper is only going to get me a reconditioned unit(ie; 722k) and...

    If I bought my 722K questions:

    Thinking about upgrading my 622 for a 722K. Similar to a thread going on now but didn't want to side track it. My 622 is a refurb and while working perfectly I might want to take advantage of some of the new receiver features. 1. If I buy my 722K, activate and return my leased 622 am I stuck...

    So where does DISH advertise more then just a token...

    Gees, just how big is DTV's ad budget compared to E*? I realize both must target certain DMA's but at least in my neck of the woods first we had months of Alex Trebek followed by months of Thomas Haden Church voice for whole house DTV and now the Russiian with the bimbos and miniature giraffe...

    Replacement VIP 622 - Previous software L083??

    My almost one month old replacement 622 locked up yesterday. Got it back working but decided to see what diagnostics recorded. Scrolling down the list I saw that the previous software was L083... huh? I looked up the firmware levels for this box and couldn't see anything this old.. OK am I...

    Rename recorded event on 622 DVR

    Fringe tonight was not scheduled to record because it was still listed as Game 7 of the World Series in the guide on my 622. I caught it in time and did a manual record so I have it. Would like to add it to my folder with the others I have this season still on my DVR. Are renames still on the...

    No Program Info recordings and folders

    Had a corrupt EPG last night that had corrected itself sufficiently to allow recording of two programs I had set and they were stored in their proper folder when their start times began and concluded. I was curious(didn't try it tho..) if you manually record ie; two show that show the NPI in the...
