    Overnight Re-boot

    That's disappointing that we're still dealing with this. I assume there has to be some motivation on DISH's end to have all the receivers reboot at the same time? Otherwise, why would they not allow this to be custom for each user, especially when all previous receivers already had this option...

    Overnight Re-boot

    I haven't checked my settings recently, but have they updated the Hoppers to allow the user to set the time the Hopper will shut down every night? I know on previous receivers I always set this for 4am, but with the Hopper it seems to happen a little after 1, and at times I'm still up watching...

    Hopper only outputs 2-channel stereo when powered on

    I'm seeing this issue as well. On my Hopper connected to my AVR it always boots in 2.0 until changing channels. On my Joey, connected to a Panasonic TV, it will boot with no audio at all. To get audio back, I have to either re-connect the HDMI cable, or change to a channel that is 2.0 (usually...

    Good Job DISH

    With regards to the "must carry", I think some people are confusing 2 different things (or maybe I am)? There is the Must Carry vs Re-Trans in each market to determine if the channel is carried at all. Then a separate issue is what is carried in HD, where if DISH is carrying NBC in HD, they...

    Team Summit - Keynote Address - 2PM ET

    This is how the current one works. The new one (shown above) is fully automatic.

    Team Summit - Keynote Address - 2PM ET

    This is similar to what DTV does with their Genie and not needing a receiver on Samsung TVs (RVU built in devices). They charge a monthly fee for those, even though there is no DTV equipment.

    Timer chops off last minute of some shows

    Like said above, just because you wait a few weeks to watch the show, doesn't mean you can't use PTAT. If you select to save the series, it will stay on your DVR until you delete it.

    Question... Now that you have had your Hopper

    1. Whole home DVR - HD everywhere. 2. Nothing major. 3. None. 4. Many good ideas, but the simplest that I'd like (and could very easily happen) is the ability to change the time for updates. I'm up at 1am quite a bit, but am never up (at least not watching TV) at 4am, which was the time I had my...

    I really hate the Hopper!

    Kind of on a related note, but I've noticed an issue with deleting recordings as well. If I'm watching a recording, when playback is finished it gives the options for "Delete", "DVR", "Live TV". Lately (last couple SW versions) when I select delete, the show does not get deleted. I have to get...

    Bell 82 vs 91

    Thanks.

    Bell 82 vs 91

    Yeah, I saw those, but other than the channels that show "MPEG2 SD" there isn't a lot of information. English vs. French and SD vs HD is mainly what I was wondering about. Also local programming.

    Bell 82 vs 91

    I tried looking for this, but didn't have much luck. If I have a single sat dish, what are the differences in channels between these satellites for Bell? I've seen the complete lists of channels, etc, but I was looking for more of a quick summary (HD is here, French is there, etc). Can someone...

    Joeys wont Link

    This fixed the issue for me. Once in standby mode, the Joey's almost instantly started downloading the software.

    Joeys wont Link

    Having same issue as OP on a similar setup, but no taps. Single Node, 2 Joey's, all RG6. I tried what is listed above, no help, as it doesn't go back through the install wizard again. Looks like I got a software update today. From your other post, my CLIENT ID does not match what you listed...

    NY Times: Paying a ‘Sports Tax,’ Even if You Don’t Watch

    And what would happen to DISH's bottom line? I would guess the majority of viewers watch ESPN (and DISH knows what that number is), and I would guess a very high percentage of them would consider another provider, which already offers a comparable product, if you removed the most popular cable...

    Latest Eastern Arc Satellite Issue Update

    I have a Western Arc setup and a Wing on 77 for QCA HD Locals. When the locals went out on Sunday, I assumed my dish got bumped or something, so I went out and started messing with it. Then I got on here and realized it wasn't my dish at all. But since I was already probably off the 77 signal...

    1/13/2010 1:30pm - Uplink Activity Report - 32 changes

    Does anyone know anything about Quad Cities HD locals? They originally said they would be up "this summer" (which was last summer), then they announced on a Tech Chat a date (which I think was in September), then later said it was delayed. Then on another Tech Chat they announced November 11...

    Anyone heard anything about Quad Cities HD Locals? I know they were delayed (when they were supposed to go live last week), but just curious if anyone knows why, or WHEN?

    Davenport Iowa HD Locals?

    So, the big question is, why weren't they launched on Sep 30, as promised? And, since obviously they weren't, will they still be launched this week? This month? SOON?

    Nope. Needs to be directly North of that, along the Iowa/Illinois Border.

    I also am waiting to see those locals go up, and like mentioned above, thought it was wierd that they weren't unplinked a week or so ago, to be made available today. Still hoping DISH can come through with this one...

    Activating 311 Receiver?

    I have a an old TV (not HD) that I was looking to activate a 311 receiver for. I have heard that I cannot activate a 311 receiver, because I have HD receivers already on the account. Supposedly, only HD receivers can be used on an account with HD, is this true? Is the 311 receiver and...

    Wichita Hd Locals??? Whats the deal?

    I feel your pain here. I'm also in that DMA and I remember last year when they were listed on DISH's website as a HD local market that was coming soon. Then, after they never showed up, on the next Retailer Chat they received no mention, but were still on the web page. Eventually the web page...

    Retailer Chat Recap: July 9, 2009

    Maybe I missed it here, but was there any mention of future HD Local launches. I thought on these they usually would announce the next few markets. I'm mainly wondering about Davenport, IA / Rock Island, Ill, as this market was originally announced a long time ago, then disappeared from their...
