If you first subscribe to a premium, such as HBO, at full price, you can get it for half off. The "secret" is to attempt to cancel it online. Dish will automatically offer you that premium at 50% off for 6 months. That would essentially make HBO $9. Not sure if it works for HBO, but I have used...

I have 1 HWS, 1 Original Hopper, and 1 Joey. Would like a price (monthly) to swap out the original Hopper out for a Super Joey. Posted Via The FREE SatelliteGuys Reader App!

Yes, this is an optional service that you are currently subscribing to. It can be easily removed by calling Dish, signing into your account online, or contacting a member of DIRT in this site. Keep in mind that this channel package has nothing to do with renting movies from Blockbuster, but...

I understand the point of the YMMV, but, does anyone have any recent reports? Is this still being offered? If you have been offered this, did you already have BB@H, or, added it to your account? Posted Using The New SatelliteGuys Reader App!

Dish protection plan is $7 per month. This does cover much more than just the receiver. The square trade seems like a good deal, if you just want to cover that one receiver. I've dealt with them Square Trade before, and they are very easy to work with when you have a problem (they pay shipping...

When Dish originally launched its "Everything" package, it included everything (except porn) that an American, English speaking sub could subscribe to on a monthly basis in their local area.. and at a savings. Since it has launched, Dish has added at least one new premium, "Blockbuster at home"...

Most of the Blockbuster kiosks around here have recently been replaced with Redbox units..

Oh, and a lot depends on proper hookup if the 5.1 system. Do not use the RCA (red and white) audio connectors. These are two channel (stereo) only. Only use a digital or optical connector of some sort (HDMI, optical, ext.). And connect it directly from the source (I.e. Dish receiver) to the...

Only programming recorded in 5.1 will be in 5.1. Most sporting events are in 5.1 nowadays, so unless if you are watching an OLD repeat, it should be in surround. Dish does pass the 5.1 on if it exists, at least with HD channels. The question to answer is, what about SD channels?

Maybe someone "in the know" can reply with a specific number of channels or list; but until then, I'll report what I know from experience. I know the local networks usually broadcast in surround, as well as the premiums and most HD cable networks. Not sure about the SD channels.. with prices as...

Same problem here, especially on the Joeys. I wonder if this has been added to the official bug list, if such really exists?

Anyone know if this has been resolved in one of the more recent software updates?

I have this same problem as well. I believe this was previously reported on this forum somewhere..

But.. one problem with that.. Dish has retrans agreements with each local Fox affiliate, not with Fox itself, correct? This means that Fox itself cannot "pull the plug" or otherwise nullify the existing retrans agreement. They can, however, probably require that their affiliates take some sort...

Disney in HD. Again, I know we have this in SD, but this dispute has been going on way too long..

ABC Family in HD. Yes, we already had SD, but come-on! Settle the dispute already.

Okay.. this is starting to sound like a common problem. I had the same problem twice the other day. My parents saw the same thing. Both Hoppers on the latest software. Changing inputs on the TV away from the HDMI input, and back again, always solves the problem. How do we officially report this...

Wow! This thing is much better that the previous versions! It now connects immediately, without the need to tinker with it first. The high quality mode is as clear as i can possibly be on the HTC Rezound ICS. Although I can now see the Prime Time Anytime recordings, the app no longer shows my...

I'm not aware of any way to play back your own video content on the 722. As others have said, the receiver requires a format to use the drive with the receiver, so anything you have on it would be wiped clean. FYI, Dish's newest receiver, the Hopper, will allow you to playback your own video...

Well, you nailed option 1, just sit on a disc. I don't see a downside to that, as there are no due dates (unless you cancel the service). The other option would be to move the series that you DON'T want them to send to the end of your queue, so that they send you other discs instead. I don't...

I had this problem once, and resolved it with a firmware update to the blu-ray player. Most newer, Internet connected Blu-ray players will allow you to update their firmware via the Internet. Some are even automatic, with a simple "update is ready to install" prompt. Even older players...

I have ComCast Limited Basic as I have their cable modem service.. I can view my Scranton/Wilkes Barre HD locals via my ComCast cable when it is connected directly to my TV.. but the OTA module in my 722K doesn't find any channels, even after doing the channel search. Anyone else with this issue?

Moving? I notice that "moving" is put out there as a possible way to get HD locals.. Can anyone describe this "moving" process or point me to somewhere that does? I would obviously be getting the locals from where I "move" to.. so I would need to know where I am "moving" to so that I have...

WNEP's reply Here is WNEP's reply and my original e-mail: Subject: RE: WNEP HD Local Channels on Dish Network From:"Morkavage, Mike" Date:Mon, Nov 09, 2009 4:35 pm To:"Josh W**", WNEP Engineering, "Morgan, Chuck"> Hi Josh. We are aware and have been pushing to not mislead any subscribers...

Contacted WNEP I just sent an e-mail to generalmanager@WNEP.com and engineering@WNEP.com with hopes that they either know something additional about the HD locals in Williamsport, PA or can perhaps help to push Dish to fix the coverage issue. I'll post the response here if I get one. Does...
