    NFL Network Dispute? -- Resolved

    If the dispute isn't over soon I'm as good as gone and that is not an idle threat.

    Need new receiver - Advice?

    Is there some sort of problem doing it myself?

    Need new receiver - Advice?

    You may call that work, but that's fun time for me. :) The install isn't free, it's $95. But it isn't about the money but more so having to mess around with installation appointments and having to take time off of work for something I could easily do myself. If this was a new installation...

    Need new receiver - Advice?

    From my research it really doesn't appear to be that difficult and I'm completely familiar with the wiring in my house to know what has to be changed for the Hopper. A solo node and a tap is all I need. Well, and the equipment that Dish won't send... :rolleyes:

    Need new receiver - Advice?

    I didn't. I was hoping it was due to my 622 going bonkers so I just left it alone. Just got off the phone with Dish. Sounds like they'll provide the equipment at no charge but my monthly fee will go up a little. The only drawback is that they won't send out the equipment without scheduling an...

    As far as the EHD is concerned, I did transfer my programs last week but now when I go to access the EHD it says it has to be formatted to work with the DVR. *bangshead*

    Need new receiver - Advice?

    I stumbled upon different wiring schemes for the Hopper and noticed the node. With a coax running from my 622 to my 2nd TV I think a tap would work at the Hopper to send the signal to the Joey.

    It has 3 LNBs (A twin and a single). 110/119/129.

    Need new receiver - Advice?

    CES had crossed my mind as well, but I'm running on borrowed time with my 622 to wait for new boxes to roll out. One more thing: Is a new dish required? I currently have the 500. I would prefer just to install the equipment myself and not have to deal with setting up installation...

    Need new receiver - Advice?

    My old 622 just isn't going to last much longer and I need to upgrade to something else but haven't been keeping up with what options are available. Is the Hopper with Sling the box to get? I have one other TV that I'm running off of TV2 so that is only in SD, but from what I see a Joey would...

    622 Green Screen, then reboot...dying?

    Blew the dust out of mine today. Didn't help. Funny how it likes to go green screen of death during shows that I'm watching but not during other times when it's on in the background. Tonight I'm watching a FB game and it does it three times. Since the game has ended it hasn't done it once...

    No luck with the wiggle technique.

    622 Green Screen, then reboot...dying?

    Mine just had another episode about ten minutes into the noon NFL games. I have a brand new 622 in the box that I might have to hook up and activate because that is unacceptable. :mad:

    622 Green Screen, then reboot...dying?

    Any update to this issue? As of about a week ago my 622 has started doing the same thing but much more often than every 48 hours. More like every 4 hours.

    Samsung Galaxy S5 metal frame allegedly leaked, may point to 5.3-inch display

    Bigger is not better. Dumb move if this is true.

    Fox Sports 1

    What was being aired didn't match the EPG. The program guide was showing SPEED programs/filler...essentially what would have been aired had they not come to a contract agreement. In my original post I should have specified that the program guide finally updated...not the actual programming...

    No. There was NASCAR testing/qualifying going on but the EPG showed the usual SPEED 30 min programs which pretty much sunk the channel like Pass Time, Wrecked, etc.

    Fox Sports 1

    Mine finally updated with FS1 programming. When I turned on my TV this morning around 8am CDT it still showed SPEED programming. I was hoping this FS1 thing was just a bad dream, but alas it is not. Bye Bye SPEED. :(

    Why not? Let's get it done. It's 2013 for crying out loud.

    So what does it take to get FoxSports2 (FUEL) in HD? Does Dish just have to pay more or is there more to it than that? Is there any chance that the negotiations for FS1 involve including FS2 in HD?

    Official New Slingbox Announcement

    I'm having issues watching HD content on my EVO LTE via my home wi-fi. It will play for a short amount of time and then it freezes (no video or audio). Occasionally a little circle will spin in the middle of the screen like it's trying to connect but nothing happens. Watching in SD mode it...
