    The end for Traditional TV is closer then ever

    Yea - Nielsen has dropped the books in favor of monitoring devices. Now it just listens to what you are watching / listening to and records that information.

    Bah Humbug Sirius :(

    Maybe the car radio needs a satellite refresh? You could always call customer service.

    The YouTube TV Thread

    Looks like YTTV added 3 Hallmark channels. I haven't seen anything about it, but the main channel along with Drama and Movies & Mysteries are eligible to be added to the live grid. They are unchecked at the bottom when you go to customize the live grid.

    Try adding the new radio to your account. They usually will give you a 3 month trial when you add it.

    Does anyone know if Sirius adds a Holidays channel to the sat feed?

    Ironically I had the same thought. Couldn't wait for Hallmark and Holly to be active next week, so started to play Christmas music yesterday via my phone in the car.

    Anyone know where I can rent this title?

    Looks likes Amazon sells it on DVD for under $13. I do know that "The Return of the King" was not done by Baskhi who was behind the 1978 animated "The Lord of the Rings", so it is not a true sequel or conclusion as "The Two Towers" is totally skipped. Link

    Just renewed 2 radios, and I got a good deal. I think

    Mine was all upfront payment as well. I am located in Illinois. I was previously paying $11.99/mo with $2.57 for music fees. That means the percentage is 21.4 for music fees under either deal.

    Just renewed 2 radios, and I got a good deal. I think

    That was the first offer they gave me. I told them that I don't drive much due to Covid and they gave me that offer. It matches the current offer for new subscribers - $8.25/mo plus music fees. I just needed to pay up front. I will admit that my current subscription had just ended and...

    Just renewed 2 radios, and I got a good deal. I think

    I was able to renew earlier this week for 1 year of All Access at $120.19 ($99 + $21.19 music fees). This did require the full amount paid up front.

    The YouTube TV Thread

    Nice addition to the base package. Wonder if they will move any other sports channels to the tier when they are able to in the future.

    The YouTube TV Thread

    The price increase is effective July 30th. That means whenever your next renewal date after the 30th will receive the increase. My renewal date is the 24th. That means on 8/24 my monthly bill will be 64.99 versus the 7/24 bill of 49.99.

    Which Roku to buy?

    The Streaming Stick is a great middle ground for a Roku device. Personally, I picked up 3 Ultras last Black Friday for $50 and run them on all my TVs. Since I've streaming only now, I will just use the Ultras on my TVs and upgrade them when I can since they are the snappiest devices within the...

    The YouTube TV Thread

    We recently made the change too from Dish to YTTV. We had Dish for over 11 years (thanks Claude!), with DirecTV before then. The wife also watches the Hallmark Channel and UPTv, so we also subscribed to Philo. I think one can subscribe just to Hallmark channels for $5/mo direct through their...

    Channel Outage In Chicago

    Yes. Flooding in Lower Wacker Drive affected the ComEd substation that services the tower on Monday. It was so flooded that ComEd still did not have access to the substation as of Wednesday (yesterday). News reports were indicating that ComEd may bring in generators to help restore some power...

    Strange PTAT Issue Only On ABC

    Count me in the batch with the ABC PTAT issue. Our copies of Goldbergs, Middle, Modern Family are always off. 50% of the time they are recording the last minute of the show and then start the next show. I have it set to start 1 minute early and 3 minutes over.

    DISH Announces 2014 CES Press Event

    Plex would be a great app to add. Much better than their poor DLNA client. Unfortunately I don't see that happening as it might negatively affect their PPV movie profit.

    Why can't I see all the transfer from show on my Hopper

    If had the same issue for months now. Even with the latest software version and only 500 recordings, I do not get a full list.

    hopper transfer to external drive problem

    I noticed I have the same issues. When trying by A-Z vs Date, I am seeing a different number of programs that I can scroll down to select and move. I am wondering if there is some limit being reached.

    External Hard Drive Limitations for Hopper

    How long did it take to initialize/format the disk? When I tried it the first time it rebooted the hopper. The second time -- I let it run over night. But this morning it wasn't finished as it wasn't showing up. I gave it a good two hours last night before the update process would have...

    External Hard Drive Limitations for Hopper

    I am wondering if the Hopper still has the 2TB and 1,000 recording show limitations that the VIP series had for external hard drives? I'm looking at upgrading my current external hard drives setup and was considering an external hardware RAID setup for it. Especially with the 3TB and 4TB...

    DLNA Video format

    Unfortunately it's a limitation of the Hopper. I'm using Plex for my DLNA and my Roku box has FF and REW capabilities. It makes it really tough to watch anything on the Hopper.

    Hopper S213 Feedback and Issues

    Powering off the Joey seems the only to fix it. I've had the issue quite a bit in the past with one of my particular Joeys. The latest software update seems to have helped out quite a bit. You could try powering off both the linked hopper and affected Joey. Then power on the Hopper - let it...
