    The OFFICIAL DISH / HBO Thread

    Thank you, I am and that was the exact issue I was wondering since Dish seems to be a no-go.

    The OFFICIAL DISH / HBO Thread

    I was looking to add HBO and I just now realized Dish is no longer carrying it. What seems to be the best way to get it now for Dish customers? Just getting the standalone service?

    Any NFL RedZone deals this year?

    I saw this and decided to try for myself. Just completed an online chat and am getting it for half off ($5.50 per month) for the next 6 months.

    Did you get any incentives to stay with Dish during AMC removal?

    Let's see, first time I got I think $30 credit (though it may have been $35) plus free HBO for 3 months. Second time I got $30 or $35 credit plus Roku. I'm a big fan of Breaking Bad and Mad Men (season completed before the dispute) and a somewhat fan of The Walking Dead, so I don't feel too...

    NFL Sunday Ticket

    Wow, there's going to be some severe complaints next year. It will be interesting to see the ball drop on that...

    NFL RedZone Free Preview This Year?

    I just got this via email. Looks like I'll have to call as well.

    Can Dish get this right?

    Yes, I understand this. I do have a clue. However, I see that ESPN has this happen not that frequently (especially now with so many multiple ESPN channels). I also acknowledge that DISH has to provide the same signal to everyone, and just blocks out those that are not allowed to view it. I think...

    Can Dish get this right?

    So, you're wanting DISH to create a special HD alternate version of the channel just for one local small market area for one event? Sounds like you should be griping to your local ABC instead.

    Hell of Wheels on Roku

    I believe you need to add Amazon Instant Video to your lineup and then you can get episodes from them.

    How are you watching Hell on Wheels season 2?

    I'm not watching this show. But if I were to want to watch it, I would go via Project Free TV (Google it). That's how I've been watching that other show that's been airing.

    722 very sluggish

    I'm glad to hear this as I've been having similar issues the past two days. Basically the program will come in fine, but the menu won't pop up. So, I could change to channel 140 just fine, but I won't get the on-screen display, nor could I access the DVR. A soft reboot seems to take care of...

    WatchESPN and ESPN3 Access

    I get ESPN3 from my ISP. Now I don't get WatchESPN, but I do have a sling adapter connected to my Dish receiver. That has allowed me to watch espn (and espn2 etc.) on my tablet. Sure, it's not as fancy as Watch ESPN, but I almost like this way better. It has allowed me to flip over to another...

    Did you get a free Roku offer?

    Well, I got a $35 credit and free HBO for 3 months (auto-canceled when it expires). I'm happy with that.

    MLB Strike Zone to Launch

    I thought they got better as the show progressed. The first few innings of the first games were atrocious, with more time spent showing their box scores or gamecast slides. The later innings they started to actually let you watch a few of the games and then go over to the action. I think...

    For those who've ever wondered how Dish refurbishes their receivers...

    That was pretty interesting. I was also happy to learn that Dish Network recycles the Styrofoam inserts as well.

    Sling + Android = System is currently unavailable

    I use sling and android and it works for me. Here's how I get it to work. 1) Load program 2) Quit program 3) Load program again. Then go to the guide data and hit refresh 4) Hit refresh until only your actual channels come in. 5) Hit "Live TV" up on the top right. This will then get you the...

    Dish Hopper site is up at Dish.com

    I wonder if you can connect the same sling adapter that the 722 uses to it or if it is a different one that is required.

    From The DISH Network CES Press Event Live

    I'd love to get a screen grab from the end of the hopper commercial. You know, where it has the dish logo followed by "Coming soon" and the announcer says "Coming soon from Dish"

    ustream's feed is working much better than cnet's.

    Questions for Joe Clayton?

    Ask him if he thinks the industry has made any movement on al-la carte pricing? With so many on-demand options, like dishonline, it would be great if I could use Dish only for sport networks. Conversely, my mother a few miles away would love to be able to remove all sports networks.

    One single Christmas Gift From Dish.

    I have no idea what a "BBMP menu" is. Which is ironic since you request that it is more intuitive.

    One single Christmas Gift From Dish.

    I would say the ability to do picture in picture while in dual mode. Either with the other pip being what is shown on TV2 or the other pip only being the OTA. Also, perhaps the ability to switch from dual to single mode by using the remote rather than having to go to up to the box. I would...

    BLACKOUT

    In cases like this I always like it when they actually announce what is being charged and what the increase would be. I'd have to think that if any other utility decided to do so much of an increase as Fox32 is requesting you'd be up in arms. In this case, it looks more like Dish is right...

    Dish Remote Access - Live TV not working

    I get that sometimes too. Luckily once I'm in the live TV I can then bring up the app's onscreen guide that allows me to change the channel to what I was wanting to watch.
