    Disable Daily Program Guide Update

    As I mentioned on the first topic and again here that is not working. What do you mean a simple timer? I've set timers to record each day as well as tried the auto tune. It does NOT reactivate the program. It records and it changes to the selected auto-tune channel but does NOT reactivate the...

    Disable Daily Program Guide Update

    The question was not answered on the first topic. It was very nicely suggested I start another topic because this is related, yet different than the first question I have read all my posts and in no way have presented the idea the Dish Network is, can or wants to do anything personal to me...

    Dish recording on my dvr?

    No I dont think that at all. I've asked a technical question, not posed a rhetorical query therefore the continual imposition of someone's opinion is rather inappropriate. There is no agree or disagree. watchel's problem is he continues to insist that if it isn't a problem for himself than why...

    Dish recording on my dvr?

    That is an interesting observation. Maybe, because we 'watch' TV for so many hours a day that explains why we haven't experienced this until recently.

    Dish recording on my dvr?

    It may be nothing to you, isn't that a rather selfish attitude? Because I prefer to have control and you don't care is of no help or interest to me or to others. You are NOT me. Please stay out of my topics.

    Disable Daily Program Guide Update

    You know, I wouldn't care that it did the update but it doesn't return to programming. If the program would simply resume then I could live with the daily auto updates.

    Disable Daily Program Guide Update

    What is your attitude problem? It is NOT the same question!!!!!! And I am asking because Dish has made changes and they won't even admit it. The original thread was asking about Dish recording on my DVR, something I had never is 15+ years had happen before. That thread turned into this...

    No, not after 3 hours that is the inactivity stand-by, which I have disabled.

    Disable Daily Program Guide Update

    I started a previous topic, 'Dish recording on my DVR' and the conversation went toward this subject so here is a new topic to address this. In short, I have a 622 and used to keep my daily program guide update disabled. I just manually did it when the program guide information ran out about...

    volume leveling????

    OH I am not the only one! I've complained to Dish for years about this and they deny it. Espcailly the PPV sports events, they actuallu wake me up at night when they come on yet I can only sleep with the TV on. My locals are all at such low volume you can't even hear them when you change...

    Dish recording on my dvr?

    Yep, I just arrived home to find my office TV tuned to channel 101 and yes a Merry Dishmas 1 minute greeting recorded. Here we go folks.

    Dish recording on my dvr?

    Well, now that you mention it Dish Network does have a way to let the customers know about changes and updates-they could record a message on the DVR for us ;) Yes, maybe the auto update topic would be better on a new thread. We've veered haven't we?

    Dish recording on my dvr?

    Haysoos, I suppose you made my point in a nutshell. Although being able to disable the auto updates serves a purpose for my needs and doesn't create calls to CSR, the sheeple can't figure it out and the company therefore will do their thinking for them. Disabling updates may very well may have...

    Dish recording on my dvr?

    Thanks for that info Ross and indeed interesting. My 'guess' is that Dish Network is changing their software so they have more control and we have less control-not unlike many things these days. We'll see just how far people will let themselves be pushed-once they finally understand what is...

    Dish recording on my dvr?

    Thanks Bob but I don't really want or need a new DVR. I am sure the tutorial is informative, although I am far from a newbie. The response I just made to another answer applied to this however, as I had the daily updates disabled and suddenly they became enabled. Seriously, I made at least 10...

    Dish recording on my dvr?

    Interesting. A few months back I had the daily updates disabled and when I manually did an update, it reset itself to auto update, as the day after I'd come home and the black scrolling message screen was on. After about 10 phone calls to DSN a senior tech finally told me they are taking away...

    Dish recording on my dvr?

    This one is strange, coincidence I suppose. It would be pretty difficult for someone else to have changed any settings. We've had no visitors in our home for months for more than a few moments and they would not touch the remote. We have no children and my husband couldn't find his way to that...

    Dish recording on my dvr?

    Why do people hang out in forums only to give rude and useless responses? Your reply in not answering my question or useful in anyway. Had you simply mentioned you have seen this and it is in your user agreement that would be useful info. I signed my ORIGINAL agreement more than a dozen years...

    Dish recording on my dvr?

    A few weeks ago I turned on our office TV and noticed it was on an odd channel, 101. Later I noticed a 5 minute block of time was recorded from channel 101 the program was Learn About NBA League Pass. Is DSN recording something now for me? Several days later our inactivity standby had...

    SIRIUS XM Radio Reports Third Quarter 2009 Results

    As disappointing as some of the changes have been since the merger, I believe that Sirius XM is still a fantastic value, ESPECIALLY in this economy. Where else can one find such diverse programming AND have it home, at work, mobile, portable or on the internet? Even with my extensive vintage and...

    DJs on Decades Channels

    Hang the DJ I hope this reply doesn't repeat, I'm new to this forum and lost my posrt. Anyway, I've had Sirius for years and upon the merge with XM noticed the DJ chatter was significantly increased and I hate it. I like the decades themes but we can't even listen to the 60's channel which...

    Sirius Signal Issues

    My signal drops daily I'm in Salt Lake City and for a month or a little more every day at 2:15pm the signal starts dropping out. Drops for a 2-4 seconds, occasionally longer but is frequent for at least an hour then becomes somewhat less frequent. We go home about 4:30-5pm. It must stop...
