    Dish's email notification system has a few bugs

    Showtime Anytime going away

    Showtime Anytime is going away next month. Does that mean we won't be able to stream Showtime movies and series using our Dish credentials like we can now? The Showtime App and website don't provide that ability.

    How do you remove recordings from a folder?

    The other day when I was experimenting with folders, I could not find any way to move recordings out of the folder, except to move them to an EHD. Dish's online documentation describes how to create and move recordings into a folder but that all. There is no provision for the reverse.

    Hopper 3, how in the world can I view/manage recorded movies with the same name?

    I have quite a number of recorded movies with multiple versions and the same name. For example, I have all three versions of Carrie, two versions of King Kong, two of Death Wish, two of The Mummy, just to name a few. These were all recorded on my previous VIP 722K which had no problem showing...

    Why doesn’t my Hopper 3 shut off (go to sleep) from the remote power button?

    Still try to get used to the Hooper after years with my trusty VIP receivers. Of course many others have complained about no recording light, and I have to agree, very annoying. But, I really don’t like the way the remote seems to work. First, it only controls 3 devices instead of 4 like the old...

    EHD with recordings from ViP 722K on Hopper 3 not supported anymore?

    There are many threads here where it seems that the Hopper 3 can view and play recordings saved on an external hard drive by a VIP 722. After putting it off for many years, I finally replaced my VIP 722 and two 612s with a Hopper 3 and two Joey 3s. Now, when I connected my EHD to the Hopper, I...

    No more discounts on Starz?

    I have been getting half off of the Starz and Showtime packages for several years, usually by going online to cancel when the discount term was up (used to be 6 months, then turned into 3 months at a time). It now seems like Dish is doing away with this as my discount ended a couple of days ago...

    Local channel guide updates?

    How do local channels update the guide on Dish? I read that ABC is going to air Black Panther tonight commercial free. I would like to record it, but my local ABC channel, WKGO San Francisco, still shows Celebrity Family Feud at 8:00PM when the movie is supposed to air.

    Regional Sports Fee

    Has anyone tried and successfully had their regional sport fee removed from their bill? I just had a typical useless chat session with Dish asking what the fee was and why it was added starting in February. Of course the response was because of the increased programming cost. I asked if I...

    Premium channel discounts changing

    For the last couple or years I have been able to get 50% off (only $5 for HBO the last 6 months) the premium channels for 6 months at a time. When the 6 months are up and the price goes back up, going online and unchecking them usually allows you to get the discount again for another 6 months...

    VIP612 un-pause audio gap?

    I replaced an old 522 a few months ago with a VIP612 and have noticed that when resuming from pause, the audio does not come on for 1 - 2 seconds. Neither my current VIP722K, 625 or old 522 had this problem, is this normal for the 612? The hookup to the TV is via HDMI and this problem occurs...

    vip 722K loses some HD channels occasionally

    I am long time Dish customer and just made the move to HD three weeks ago with the addition of a 722K receiver. Six or seven times since I had this installed, I lose the ability to tune in some of the HD channels. I get the error message telling me to change the channel or reset the receiver by...
