    Festivus - Airing of Grievances

    I hear ya! I guess an update is in order. I called DISH back and spoke with a helpful chap. What a difference in this call! No beefing or alternate sales pitches like the call from 3+ months ago. To sum it up, the CSR (Tech service), came straight to the point and said yes, I can buy a...

    Festivus - Airing of Grievances

    Does the Joey 4 access and display channel 540? Does the Joey 4 play 4k recordings stored on the Hopper3? Does the Joey 4 have PiP support? Which of these is the Joey 4?

    DishAnywhere Issues on Windows 10 PC Google Chrome, Suggestions Please

    I'm not sure how our experiences are tied to the Hopper's internet connection speed. I've been connected with DSL 3Mb/s (horrible DishAnywhere performance), 30Mb/s microwave link (still bad), 50 Mb/s LTE (bad), to now 1Gb/s symmetric fiber (DishAnywhere works as I'd expect). Now for me, it...

    DishAnywhere Issues on Windows 10 PC Google Chrome, Suggestions Please

    I've experienced the lock-up and getting kicked out when trying to rewind a couple times, practically 100% of the time. It's when I'm watching football and want to review something. Just now I tried and it's working. It's working on all the channels that I watch streaming through the Hopper...

    St Louis Locals

    I'd check all the coax connectors in the system between the hub and receivers. Also note any badly kinked or otherwise damaged cables.

    That sounds like your Moca signal is degraded in the house cabling between receivers.

    Thanks. Sounds like it's either signal strength on my end or... Is Dish doing receiver geolocating to enable local channel reception? Sent from my SM-S926U using Tapatalk

    St Louis Locals

    I've "lived" in St Louis and have received their locals for about 15+ years off the EA. We don't watch DISH very much, but about a week ago I noticed the locals were not tuning in. The reciever messages given are Seems thelist is gone and I'm having a heck of a time trying to find...

    4K Events Discussion Thread

    I was recording the whole 4k Packer-49er game via timer. No video on the channel prior to the timer starting and none throughout the game broadcast. Today the recording replays normal with video.

    4K Events Discussion Thread

    Thanks Bobby. 540-1 is audio only for me. No idea why, I can stream 4k through the Hopper on Prime/Netflix. In the past I had 4k on the 540s.

    4K Events Discussion Thread

    Are the 4k Joeys supposed to have access to 540 when the H3 has no issue with it? Are the 4k Joeys supposed to play recordings off 540? Are the 540 subchannels on certain orbitals?

    Loyal Dish customer longevity

    Nice. 625 is ringing a bell. I used to buy my receivers when there were monthly fees to be saved. Last Dish equipment I bought was the 722k OTA module. Still have one, maybe two in the cabinet.

    Loyal Dish customer longevity

    23 years with a self-install 3000 receiver and a Dish500 dish, I think. Or the 500 dish came shortly after the single LNB 300 dish installation. Added a 2nd dish aimed at 61.5° when HDTV launched there. Here's a memory test... Recite the receiver's you've had! 3000 4000 311 322 625 622 211k...

    Playing NBC Feeds w/ All Audio Tracks (via VLC and OpenWebif)

    NBC feeds are great, except for the split audio tracks that they contain. Here is a way I've found to watch with all audio tracks active. This is done via PC and the player VLC, and in my case with Enigma based STBs, specifically OSMIO4k for me. First, make a .bat file like this: Next, I...
