What a load of crap channel they just replaced H2 with...

Well the price increases pushed me over the edge. I signed up for Dish back in April of 1997. Old model 4000 that I bought outright and installed myself. Talked five other relatives into Dish. Used to dutifully watch the Charlie Chats, and cheered at the one or two new channels that we would...

"Lifetime" may only be 3-4 years. The over the air tuners in all the equipment of this type will be replaced by ATSC 3.0 very very soon. Converter boxes will have to be utilized, just like the changeover from analog television to ATSC 1.0. They are jumping straight to MPEG 5 and bypassing MPEG...

I finally got fed up with all the "give some idiots some GoPro cameras and you have a reality program" type programming... so I put Dish on pause, and SlingTV is probably the way we are going to go, long term. Seeing that the president of Discovery Networks is getting over a hundred million a...

The poop is about to hit the fan next month with a price increase, so they are throwing us a bone with the freebees. A subscriber since April 1997and the old model 4000 days (that I had to purchase outright and install myself), it looks like I will be dropping Dish (well kinda') and going with...

You hit the nail on the head completely. The handwriting is on the wall for the content relayers, such as Dish and Cable TV.

It is obvious what is happening. MSNBC has always had poor ratings, and recently they took a nosedive from "poor". They need to provide advertisers eyeballs and needed to take extreme measures to quickly try to increase viewership. What some look at a free "perk" is looked by others as another...

Customers do not work for Dish. If they say we have to drop what we are doing to jump through some hoops for them, screw-em. They work for me, I don't work for them... just got a ROKU 3 from my kids for Father's Day. Total 'a la carte. Smile. Dish customer since April 1997. But now I am adding...

We are all pretty stupid for putting up with the non-HD, "HD" programming.

It will be like Turner Classic Movies "HD". Just the name, not the actual broadcast. Interesting that TCM DOES broadcast in full HD overseas, but not in the United States.

Wall to wall, mindless reality programming in 4K? NO THANKS.

I highly recommend the Silicondust HD Home run. You can record two HD channels at one time, or four channels at the same time if you have two of the units (as I have). You will need a computer and a properly setup home network... Running Windows Media Center on Windows 7, the guide, recording...

It could be worse... they could start some reality programming on the weather channel !

What website security?

My low power computer that couldn't handle TVAnywhere in HD but did fine on the "better" setting has an Intel Atom dual core 2.13 Ghz cpu with an Intel on-board 3600 series video. I built this computer specifically for the HD recording and streaming of a SiliconDust HD DVR device. It works...

Content has steadily gone downhill with wall to wall mindless reality programming on most channels now. We have decided to have our account go on "Dish pause" for the summer months when we are active doing other things, as a response to the continued price increases from Dish for less and less...

On lower power computers, just change the output to SQ standard quality from HD and all will be fine again. I have five computers at home and only one of them can't handle Sling HD.

I have the Galaxy Tab 7 and originally got the "won't work" message too. I had to do a reset on the unit anyway, so I did and surprise, the galaxy Tab 7 took the software from the app/play store just fine. I have the last factory firmware on the unit, so nothing special.

App only works on newer Android hardware. The older 2.3 is a no go with the app.

Got our Dish mailer thanking us for being a customer and as a result, increasing our billing by $5 and $1 more.

I own my vip722, so I was more radial. The internal hard drive has room underneath it for a real screw on hard drive cooling fan. Works great.

We had to use a 12dB amplifier on the modulated output from our vip722 to get a signal from our basement Dish setup to another tv on the main floor. Idiots had used rg59 cable in the walls instead of rg6.

Glad the memory dump worked for you.

Dish vip722k maintenance keystrokes: Clear NVRAM: menu 6 3 info right left tv/video Format hard drive: menu 6 3 info right left play play recall I had a spare hard drive certified for the vip722k and put it in after all the problems, but the problems returned. I...

Look further down at post L755 on 722k post. Dish has a firmware problem with the latest release and I'm not the only one seeing the freezes.
