i've had to reboot twice in two hours today. dish evidently dislikes me putting nascar in a small pip window. luckily there's not much to record yet, but i did lose beach volleyball which i like much more than nascar. [g] /guy

the one i loved was the replaytv. anyone remember that? i kept it going like 7 years past when it should have died due to the great community that had hacked nearly every aspect of it. moving to the tivo felt like a huge step down and i missed functions like the ad-skip everywhere to this day.

lol! no, tivo were good guys, but even they couldn't crack time-warner. i got to know most of their best techs by their first names. [g] /guy

you won't hear me complaining too much. you should have been at the disaster some years back when tivo went from sd to hd menus. it took them two years and perhaps 12 updates to make most of everything work. it was so bad they had to put an option in so people could stay in sd mode until they...

first, before i launch into a couple of minor annoyances, let me say that i forgive dish all due to the 16 tuners. this alone solved nearly every annoyance i had with the previous hopper. i got tired of rescheduling show so i could watch two programs at once in pip during prime time when it took...

i've been running the multi-view and pip ever since i got mine a couple of day ago and only had a similar problem yesterday. but closing pip didn't fix it, the noise just filled up the whole screen. also, soft or warm resets didn't fix it--i had to pull the plug and wait 30 seconds and it's been...

anyone notice that the /delete/ command doesn't seem to work when you hit /select/ or /stop/ and then select the trans can item? the only reliable way i've found is the /recall/ button or by clicking on the show icon from the recordings screen and selecting /delete/. /guy

anyone else notice that if you have the multi-view up with 4 windows and then hit go into a full screen option like the guide, you'll still get the audio from whichever window you had selected, but you'll get the video in the window at top right overlaid on the guide? it's disconcerting because...

so i have a new question for the group. i have a m43-c1 43" vizio which has five hdmi ports (inputs) and, as you saw in the previous posts, they are not well documented as to specs. but #5 is the 'best' one in that it's 60fps and most likely hmdi 2.0 and hdcp 2.2 (?). and it's the only port that...

tks. yeah i was going through all the documentation and dipping into every setting in every menu. perhaps something hung or i was going too fast. i'll take it slower for awhile. /guy

just did. it's holding up for now and i've even back to multi-view. it lost a couple of settings here and there, but nothing major. something glitched pretty badly and i think some memory or buffer got corrupted. unsure why but it sure does change resolutions a lot. /guy

yeah, i'm dead in the water. it's like corrupted video is stuck in buffers or something. guess i'll try the dish support chat and see if they can get someone back out here.

folks, i got major problems. i'm getting snowed out while just watching cable news channels and i can't find any way to recover than a restart. my internet is solid as a rock and i can't find any problems by running the diagnostics. i tried playing a recording and the cable channel is still in...

good point. if it goes out again he can run speedtest. i'm having problems of my own. twice now i've gone into the /settings/remote/ section and changed one or another items and when i backed out of it both my main and pip screens went to total snow. both times it's been completely...

yep, you're right. that 4k section wasn't there last night when i told you to manually search for 4k stuff. funny thing, when i found a list of netflix 4k content last night, it included 'the holiday' and i eagerly went to netflix to put that on my list, but was disappointed to find that it...

well, never mind. i just checked and dish wants $8 to play these two 4k items in /vod/. i guess the reviewers got freebies. but you could use your roku to make sure your tv is reporting 4k input, then move the dish to that same tv input and try netflix. i also just confirmed that doing a...

all i can say for sure is that when i play fireplace 4k in netflix my tv reports 2160p input. but then again i've noticed that the h3 seems to have problems shifting from 1080p to 4k and back again. or it might do so, but it's not reporting the status correctly until it 'catches up'. i just...

the installer yesterday said that he got 4k joeys when they came out so he'd be ready for netflix, but he told me the 4k joeys aren't working with netflix yet. i didn't pay a lot of attention since i don't have joeys, but he said there's another model of joey that does work. sorry i can't...

tks for reminding me about the hub--good tip. but i already have a couple of usb3 docks where you can simply plug in internal sata drives when one runs out of space. not entirely sure dish would support this method, but i really don't see why not. btw, when i woke up today i noticed that a lot...

oh, and one major annoyance i had with the 40.0 remote was that the volume keys 'bounced'. in other words, even if i barely tapped volume /up/ or /down/, it would turn the volume up or down by 2-5 steps. i even tried to teach the volume to the buttons which used to work with my harmony remotes...

just on the off chance no one has noted this, or, like me, hasn't made it through the previous 48 pages of this thread: i was sorely missing my hard key for /pip/. i had figured out that in multi-view with 4 screens, the /recall/ key would cycle clockwise around the screen. and you could use the...

i had read some reviews which said that the hopper was supposed to isolate and show you the 4k content as a separate module, but so far i see no sign of it. on netflix (and amazon) i search for 'uhd' or '4k' to bring up the 4k shows. netflix has had a 4k line in the past, but it comes and goes...

i've just now noticed that what dish reports it's sending as far as resolution is unreliable and i think my tv is just reporting what dish relays to it. just a few minutes ago i said that cnn was reporting as 2160p. now it's reporting as 1080i which is what is expected. as is izombie which is a...

also, i can't seem to find the old search screen which allowed you to record by category. is there a workaround for that? sorry for all the questions--you wouldn't believe how many tabs i have open with dish resources. i can tell the new remote is going to be great if i ever survive the...

i have the m43-c1. and i originally had the hopper3 on hdmi1 and wasn't seeing 4k resolution until i moved it to hdmi5. i thought as you did, that 1,2, and 5 were all the same except hdmi5 would show 60fps content. /guy
