    Unable to watch LHN content on ESPN app

    I have AT200 which includes LHN, but for some reason I don't seem to be able to access LHN streaming content on the ESPN site or app. I can access ESPN channel content and SEC network content on the ESPN app and site, but loading LHN content leads to a message that says "You do not have a...

    Are we in for another Fox Sports / Dish dispute this fall?

    I'm curious (and ignorant), but wanted to know if we are in for another Fox Sports vs. Dish standoff at the beginning of this upcoming football season (2015). That whole rebranding SPEED/FS1 was confusing but they didn't negotiate a new contract from what I understand and the sports channel...

    ESPN 140HD changes to Soccer App

    I don't know why, but without warning, they changed 140HD (ESPN) to an interactive World Cup Soccer app. Because of that I totally missed recording the USA-Germany game. You can only get ESPN in SD on 140. To get it in HD you have to go to 9424 HD. Why would they do that without warning? Was...

    Fox Soccer Plus: NO free preview for us

    Why not us? Why does Dish never participate in FSP's free previews? They are few and far between, but I never understood why it's not on Dish. From the Fox Soccer Plus Web site (Note the "Participating Providers" and who's missing from that list): October 14, 2013 FOX SOCCER PLUS OFFERS...

    Fox picks up Bundesliga Media Rights

    According to news reports posted yesterday from both Fox Sports and the DFL (German football association), 21st Century Fox has picked up the media rights for the Bundesliga beginning 2015/2016 season. After Fox lost the rights to the English Premier League and Fox Soccer changed into a...

    Can you use multiple USB's at once on HWS?

    I noticed in the Hopper w/Sling (HWS) manual it states the following: "Note that the Hopper with Sling HD DVR currently supports one external USB-connected device at a time." (Page 79, HPRSLNG_user.pdf, downloaded from Dish's web site). I found this interesting considering the HWS has 3 USB...

    Can you rename your HWS after initial setup?

    My two HWS's are named "Living Room 1" and "Living Room 2", but I would like to change their names to a different option from the list I saw the tech choose from. Since some people may move equipment from room to room (not in my case), I would have thought that there would be a way to change a...

    Spontaneous Reboots on 922: A sign of the end?

    My 922, with which I have had very little to complain about in the years I've had it, has recently been spontaneously rebooting itself at an unusual frequency. It seems to do this most often when I am recording something, especially two things at once. Or it could be that's just when I notice it...

    USB 3.0 Support for EHDs? Which DVRs?

    Couldn't find the answer in search. I have a 922 and a 722 and just need to know if it's worth anything to choose a USB 3.0 EHD over one that is only USB 2.0 for my DVR. Do any of the Dish DVRs support USB 3.0? If so, does anyone know which ones? Sorry if this has already been asked. Thanks for...

    German Sports channel changes to different channel

    Today I noticed that "My Sports Germany" from the international packages had changed to a new channel named My German TV +. I am disturbed because My Sports Germany showed nothing but Bundesliga and similar sports programming but now the channel on the same channel number is showing cultural...

    International SD Channel Quality

    I recently signed up for My Sports Germany, a Standard Definition international channel in German that shows a lot of Bundesliga soccer games. It's a great channel. But what has really surprised me the most about this channel is that as an SD channel, the picture quality is exponentially better...

    Potential new customer wanting two HD DVRs

    When I selected two HD DVRs on the DirecTV web site, it showed that the first one was free, and the second one was discounted to $99. Then each would be $5.00 per month with Choice Ultimate. I talked to a CSR who told me that as a new customer I could get both HD DVRs free as a free upgrade. I...

    Will remaining RSN football games be blacked out again?

    Last week Dish told us we'd still be able to see the Saturday college football games that were on the removed RSNs because those games were still being shown on some of the remaining RSNs (such as CSN Bay Area, CSN Calif., and FSN-NW). Specifically they said 444HDALT would be available. But...

    Is there any content Dish has that DirecTV doesn't?

    (Other than the outstanding Dish DVRs, of course). This is NOT supposed to be an argument over which service provider is better. I just want to know if there are any significant (read as: good) channels that Dish has that DirecTV doesn't. From what I can tell, *D has everything that *E has and...

    Un-pair remote from one TV and pair with another

    Can anyone tell me the steps to do this? I have a remote control for my 722 paired with one of my HD TVs, and I'd like to pair it with a different TV, after un-pairing it with the first TV. If the steps are simple enough, I may need to make this switch back and forth on a regular basis. I...

    Is Gameplan even worth it anymore?

    What do you think? Is Gameplan still worth buying? According to my sources nearly all of the games appearing on Gameplan this season will also be available on ESPN3.com - where you can watch up to four games at one time - or on some of the Multi-sport Package channels (Altitude and SNY seem to...

    Can you get ESPNDeportes and FSE a la cart?

    As an English subscriber (language, not nationality), is there any way to get ESPN Deportes and/or Fox Sports en Español a la carte? I know they come with the Dish Latino packages, but I'm on AT250 Plus Multi-sport. I'm interested in the additional soccer coverage.

    Stars game blacked out on my local FSN SW

    Is anybody else in the FSN Southwest market experiencing a blackout of the Predators vs. Stars hockey game tonight? Both the HD and the SD feed are blacked out for me and I've never had this problem before. They are my local RSN. Dish is looking into it, but I thought I'd check to see if anyone...

    Ethernet connection problem

    So I connected a Cat6 ethernet cable to the back of my 722 and then connected it to the back of my SBCGlobal/ATT/Yahoo DSL wireless router. I have restarted both the receiver and the router but when I go to the Menu > System Setup > Diagnostics and click on "Connection" it still says "Broadband...

    Not getting SNY HD on 388

    I have a Vip722, AT 250, plus Multi-Sport pack, but for some reason I can't go to channel 388 which is supposed to be SNY HD. It doesn't show up on my guide and if I key in the numbers it just takes me to the closest channel, 386. I'm out of market for SNY, but with the multi-sport pack I get...

    HD DVR upgrade offer

    Has anyone taken advantage of the current promotion for existing SD-only customers to upgrade to HD DVR? $120 for the new equipment with $100 rebate making it only $20. HD free for six months then $20 extra a month. Was it worth it? How much extra did it end up costing you a month in...

    Cinemax preview channels

    Is there a way to find out which specific cinemax channels are going to be on which free preview channels this weekend, ahead of time? I have to set my timer before Thursday since I'll be away. But if I knew the channel numbers, I could do a manual DVR event.

    The Mtn. - any new info?

    I hadn't seen this topic brought up in quite a while. Is there any new information on The Mtn. and Dish Network? It's not even on D*. As far as I know it's not available at all in the MWC's biggest market: DFW. TCU fans are going to miss a lot of Horned Frogs games since they can't get The Mtn...

    ESPN channels -- error 002

    I'm getting error 002 for all the ESPN channels. It says: "Error 002 The satellite signal has been lost, signal acquisition is in progress." It did this once before (yesterday) and eventually the channels came back. But it's not going away and doesn't appear to be acquiring any signal...

    NHL Center Ice

    Does anybody know if Dish Network will be offering NHL Center Ice this season? The NHL site has Dish Network listed as carrying center ice but Dish Network's site has no mention of it for this season, only on outdated pages referring to the 2003-04 season. Any information?
