My wife has the Mariners as "Our Team"and we also have the channel set to record all Mariners game on ROOT so we usually get 2 recordings of each...

    Just Switched to DTV from DISH - Have Questions?

    Thanks to everyone, I have a ways to go on my learning! As for the Firmware update to get 13 tuners: The technician offered this up on his own...three times, so unless he was flat-out-mistaken, I don't know what to think? I have to tell you though, this tech was by far the most knowledgeable...

    Just Switched to DTV from DISH - Have Questions?

    Ok thanks. So as for the MENUSC Command, does that work with my model Genie? AND If I enable it and press the "MENU" key does it show this list BEFORE I hit a number or do I have to memorize the list? Menu 0 Settings Menu 1 Movies Menu 2 Sports Menu 3 TV Shows Menu 4 Smart Search Menu 5 On...

    Just Switched to DTV from DISH - Have Questions?

    Hi, I was having multiple problems with DISH and the Hopper 3 so I decided to give DTV a try. I got the Genie HR54-500 with 1 mini installed Saturday and I'm wondering if I made a mistake? I say this strictly because of the Genie. I'm not sure I like it, although the picture quality IS superior...

    Wife's having problems with ROOT NW

    So the wife is still up-in-arms with this situation. Now, both Saturday and Sunday games started recording the SD channel instead HD. ALL of Saturday's game was recorded in SD and Sunday we noticed half-way through the broadcast and manually swapped them. Spent around 45 minutes with DISH tech...

    Wife's having problems with ROOT NW

    Oh hey one more question: Does DirectTV have the same problem with the RSN's? Are they bound to the same 16 hour contract or is it better over there?

    Wife's having problems with ROOT NW

    1) For the game that stopped in the 11th inning: are you guys saying the reason the game stopped wasn't because it went over 60 minutes past the timer? AND 2) Any guesses as to why her original...

    Hopper 3 Stops in the middle of playback

    Yeah, well, while talking to the DISH technician he told me he'd never heard of the H3 doing this. And that no one had ever reported this behavior. I told him that 8 months ago I went through all kinds of troubleshooting steps for this THIS PROBLEM and they even sent me a new H3 because of it...

    Wife's having problems with ROOT NW

    So the wife's an avid fan of the Seattle Mariners. Last year we set a SEEK timer to record any and all Mariners games and it worked flawlessly. Now this year had been fine up until last week sometime. One of her games(from the HD channel) recorded nothing but a banner saying something like: "We...

    Hopper 3 Stops in the middle of playback

    Hi all, it's been a while since last visiting. I think I should come here earlier because the DISH tech support hasn't been very helpful! The problem I'm having SEEMS to occur more on certain channels USA is the latest. Let me back up: About 8 months ago I upgraded to the Hopper 3 with Sling...

    Dish "Transfer" Question

    Well, thanks for the reply Tampa8. The thing is, I do have an android tablet and an android phone, both are compatible with Transfers. My only complaint is this: My Samsung Tab 2 has a 10.2" (1280x800) display and my phone is a Galaxy S4 (1920x1080) with a 5" display. Now then, I have this...

    I have a question about DISH "Transfers" I hope somone knows?

    So, what are the chances that Dish will release a Windows 8/8.1 Dish Anywhere App? Seems to me a logical enough thing to do?

    I have a question about DISH "Transfers" I hope somone knows?

    Well, the snippets of articles I read were vague enough to where I specifically called DISH to be sure. I even had the agent walk me through (somewhat) the process as it would be on a laptop. The agent said "You'll go into the Dish Anywhere page with your browser and there'll be an option for...

    Dish "Transfer" Question

    I DID ASK, I made it a point to call yesterday and specifically asked that exact question: "Does the Transfers feature work on laptops" and the CS agent said positively YES IT DOES. I guess I could have told the installer to box the hopper and joey back up and place my system back to the way...

    Dish "Transfer" Question

    I'm sorry, I posted this in another forum then noticed the dedicated one for Hopper, I'll try to be brief. I ordered the Hopper after reading it could "Transfer" DVR content to any mobile device for viewing without an internet connection. The technician just left my house taking away my VIP622...

    Hello, I'll try to be brief. I ordered the Hopper after reading it could "Transfer" DVR content to any mobile device for viewing without an internet connection. The technician just left my house taking away my VIP622 and it now appears that the only way to get content to a device is with the...
