    Backup Question

    Thanks in advance for any help on this. I am upgrading this week from a 2 HWS/2 Joey setup to a Hopper 3/3 Joey setup, and I am trying to do as much in advance as possible to make the transition easier. I understand that I can only restore 1 HWS settings to the Hopper 3, so I took the time to...

    Password for Home Media

    Just forced the upgrade to CUI (U213), and I noticed that when I go to Home Media, I no longer get prompted for a password. Parental Controls are on, and set to the same settings as prior to the CUI upgrade. Anyone have the same issue and know if there is a way to require a password for Home...

    Joey 1.0 and Big Ten Channel Problems

    I was trying to watch a game on the Big Ten channel today with my Joey (1.0), and the picture kept breaking up. I turned on the same channel on my Hopper w/ Sling, and everything was perfect. I could actually stand in one spot and see both TVs at the same time, and the HWS was perfect the...

    Timers and 'Moving'

    Quick Hopper question. I have Prime Time Anytime enabled, and also have individual timers set up for prime time shows that piggy back on Prime Time Anytime. If I 'move' to a different city, will those timers disappear, will they automatically update to my new local channels, or will I be able...

    Hopper PTA EHD Problem/Question

    I am currently in the process of upgrading my 2 Hopper2000's to 2 HWS's (thanks MikeH!), but I am having a problem. I want to back up all of our programs to an external hard drive so that I can transfer them back to the HWS's once they are up and running. I had no problems backing up...

    New Dish Anywhere RSN problem

    I know there was a problem about a year ago with Dish Anywhere not having RSNs listed in the guide, but I just started having this problem recently. When I expand 412, I only have 2 of my 3 RSNs listed, and only the SD versions of those. I also now have a huge list of sports alternates that...

    Hopper Home Media Audio Question

    I have an mkv file that has multiple audio tracks. When I play the file on my PC, it plays with the default 5.1 audio, but when I play it through my Hopper, it plays a commentary audio track. I know that I can edit the mkv file to strip out all of the audio tracks except the 5.1, but I would...

    Timer Question

    I have had my Hopper/Joey setup for about 6 months now, and I love almost everything about it. The one annoying problem that I have is how it displays future timer recordings. Back with my 722K, if I hit the DVR button twice, it would bring up the calendar showing everything that was scheduled...

    Joey DLNA Problem

    Forgive me if this has already been mentioned - I searched the threads but did not see this exact problem noted. I have a 2 Hopper/2 Joey setup with a HIC. When I try to listen to music on my Joey from my DLNA server, everything is fine, but if I try to watch movies from the DLNA on the Joey...

    Super Bowl Autohop

    Any chance that Dish could reverse the Autohop feature on the Super Bowl so that the game is skipped and just the commercials play? It's gimmicky, but I bet they would draw some more attention to the Hopper (in the media) by offering it. Even CBS would probably not be opposed to it. :)

    Joey RSN Favorite List Problem

    Sorry if this has been aksed before - I did a few searches and couldn't find anything on it. Just last week I upgraded to a 2 Hopper/2 Joey system. When I went to make my favorite lists, I had an issue with the Joeys. I wanted to add the SD and HD versions of MASN and MASN 2 to my list, but...

    Hopper Installation Question

    I am getting a 2 Hopper/2 Joey system installed tomorrow. The installer has already given me all the hardware, and I had previosly verified (by borrowing a Hopper and Joey) that all locations in my house have suitable wiring for the installation. My questions is, can I download the initial...

    Hopper Diplexer Question

    Here's one for anyone out there that is going through the Hopper training, or possibly another question that Scott can ask to Dish. I have a coax line that is currently being used to distribute the TV2 signal from my 722k to a TV, but when it was originally installed, it also diplexed a...

    By Mail Queue Problem

    I was a Blockbuster through the mail member several years ago, but I eventually cancelled the service. When I reactivated my account by adding the Blockbuster Movie Pass, my old queue of movies was still there from several years back. I deleted everything fro the queue and added new movies to...

    722K Freeze/Reboot Problem

    My 722K recently started having some issues. The picture freezes, but the sound continues (sometimes) for a few seconds. Then everything freezes, and the remote won't do anything. After a few minutes, the receiver will reboot, but sometimes it will not finish the boot up process before it...

    Slow Guide on 722K

    I just did a quick search and I haven't seen this mentioned here before, but I have been having an issue on my 722K for a few weeks now. I am running in Dual Mode, and whenever I hit the guide button on TV1, there is a 3-5 second delay before the guide comes up. Once I am in the guide, the...

    TV Everywhere and HDTV Multi-Room Extender

    I know these have not been released yet, but has anyone heard/seen a suggested retail price for the TV Everywhere Adapter and the HDTV Multi-Room Extender? Is it safe to assume that these will be released at the same time as the 922 since the HDTV multi-room extender is required to use the 2nd...

    Hooking HDTV up to TV2 Out on 722K

    This is not the typical 'HDTV 2nd output' question. I currently have a 722K receiver feeding my HDTV (TV1) and several standard defiinition TVs throughout the house with the TV2 output. I know that the TV2 output is not HD, but the HD channels still look much sharper on this output than the SD...

    Washington Fox 5 Audio Stutter

    Anyone else having problems with the HD Fox 5 feed from Washington DC on Dish? The audio seems to stutter pretty frequently (2-3 times a minute), and is very annoying. I was wondering if it is a Dish problem or a Fox 5 problem.

    MASN-HD

    Does anybody have any info on Dish adding MASN-HD in the near future? It seems like it would be a good choice for Dish since it is now a 24/7 HD channel that services 2 DMAs with their coverage of the Baltimore Orioles and the Washington Nationals. I e-mailed MASN, and they claimed that their...

    Masn Hd?

    I contacted MASN about having their HD channel on Dish, and they actually sent me a response with useful information (I was expecting a form letter saying with the typical 'we are trying to get MASN HD to as many customers blah blah blah'). They said that they have made their HD signal...

    Masn Hd

    Anyone (Scott) hear if Dish will be adding the MASN HD channel in time for the start of Baseball season? I need to see the O's rebuild with the best picture possible...

    HD PPV Transformers Deleted

    I recorded Transformers on the HD PPV channel on Friday afternoon and transferred it to my external hard drive that evening. When I went to watch it last night, it was gone. Is this a new Dish practice to not allow archiving of HD PPV?

    Dish Network Remote Control Help Needed

    I recently purchased a Panasonic PV-DF274 combo TV/DVD/VCR, and I am having problems trying to program my 721 remote to control it. I did a power scan of all the TV codes, and none of them work. I was, however, able to find a VCR code that works and allows me to turn the TV on and off. My...

    721 Caller ID Problem

    I am hoping some of you can help me with this problem, or confirm that it is just a software bug. I recently purchased a 721 as part of the new promotion, and I am happy with everything but the caller ID feature. If I am watching TV normally, it seems like the caller ID only works about 10%...
