Does the power button actually send the TV's infrared power on command? Maybe only if HDMI-CEC is turned off?

I have a Hopper3, Sharp TV, Yamaha Soundbar. The Hopper is connected to TV with HDMI. The soundbar is connected to TV's optical audio output. This is an older soundbar that has no HDMI passthrough ports, so optical or RCA cables are the only way to feed it audio input. The Hopper is configured...

I've been noticing this lately too with Discovery shows like Gold Rush. I keep having to manually record the new episodes because my timer misses them.

Does the service still exist where they send a tech to your new place to install a dish and get your gear running again? Is there a charge for it?

Well, it still happens. I have the same issue on my Hopper 3. Perhaps if Dish would fix the problem we wouldn't still be discussing it...

Tried a power cord reboot and there's no change. The Edit Timer screen says it saved the change, but no matter what I press to get out of that screen (Cancel, DVR, Guide, View Live TV) when I go back and check, the end time is back to 5 mins late. I do have about 100 timers. Has anybody noticed...

You mean the Back button on the remote? My remote (40.0) doesn't have a Back button like the newer ones do. My wife hates the newer remotes, so we still use the 40.0. Pushing Cancel on the remote appears to be the only way to exit the Edit Timer screen and go back to the list of timers. Pushing...

Hi all, I have a Hopper3 with H310 software. I have my defaults for DVR timers set to start 5 minutes early and end 5 minutes late to make sure I don't miss the beginning or end of shows when they don't start/end on the hour like they should. I have recently lost my NBC local due to the Tegna...

However, the Hopper software (as far as I know) does not allow you to choose whether you want a seek timer or a single-channel timer. You could on older receivers, but not on the Hoppers. You can't edit an existing timer and change it to seek, and the only time I can get it to create a seek...

Too bad Dish's software isn't smart enough to automatically switch DVR timers from the satellite feed to the OTA feed when this crap happens. My Hopper failed to record the "Chicago" shows from my local NBC station tonight after it was pulled. :mad: It would also be nice if there was some...

I've started noticing this on my H3 in the last few days too. I've had it for quite a while, so not a new one like yours, but similar symptoms. Everything seems to be working fine except for Amazon Prime Video, which used to work fine too. I wonder if a recent software update screwed it up. The...

Tried that a couple of weeks ago. The chat rep was completely useless. Couldn't offer me any kind of discounts despite being a 20+ year customer. The only option he could offer was to drop to a lower package.

It's not that I want 250 channels. I only watch about 20-25 of them on any kind of a regular basis. The problem is the way the packages are set up. There are 2-3 channels I like that are only in the Top 250 package.

I've been considering it for years. The problem has always been that no one streaming service has all the channels I want and usable DVR functionality at a price that is significantly cheaper than Dish. And I still have to pay for a bunch of crap channels I don't care about. Philo and SlingTV...

I'm in a single-family home with my own dish, so no MDU setup. Seems like one of the multiple reboots would have already reset the network, but Ok, I'll try it. I went into Menu -> Settings -> Internet and it was complaining that it had no network connection and the IP address shown was...

It did it again this morning. I am using the lower ethernet port to connect to my local LAN, but it has been this way for years and has never been a problem before. I don't understand the previous comment about smart boxes...

Unplugging the Hopper did get it to stop rebooting this morning. I guess I'll have to wait and see if it repeats again tomorrow morning. Can you provide any further explanation of the error message? There have been no changes to my local network or my Internet connection in many months. The...

This morning when I turned my system on, my Hopper3 rebooted several times. It would turn on and work normally for a couple of minutes, then display a message on the screen: "Attention 1598 We detected a change in your network and need to reboot your set top box to restore service". When I...

Yep, longtime problem. Maybe someday Dish will contract with a guide data provider that can provide accurate data.

Are they giving people a single-tuner OTA adapter or a dual-tuner one? Since many channels still insist on jacking around with the start times of shows (not actually on the hour) I set all of my timers to start 5mins early and end 5mins late. If there's only a single tuner in the OTA adapter...

Anybody else having EHD problems on their H3 in the last few days? I have a 3TB WD MyBook drive that I have been using for a year or so with no issues. My H3 is suddenly refusing to recognize it and says it needs to be reformatted. I don't know if it's something to do with U548 or just a...

I would like to blame it on the never-ending incompetence of the guide data provider(s) that Dish uses, but sometimes I wonder if the content providers like Discovery aren't doing this on purpose to promote less-popular shows. I frequently see a new 1-hour episode of "Gold Rush" and a 1-hour...

I vaguely recall there being a difference in behavior between the two Ethernet ports on an H3 at one time in the past. Maybe that has changed by now, maybe not. I have my network plugged into the bottom port on the H3, and I have no issues with a couple of Joey 1s and a 4k Joey on Ethernet...

Does PTAT work with OTA tuners? If not, even the dual OTA tuner isn't going to cut it for a lot of people. I record several network shows, and a bunch of them are on Wednesdays, same time on different channels. And you have to start your timers early and end them late since the networks...

I have the same issue, also with Joey 4k connected to Hopper 3. It doesn't do it all the time, but often will jump ahead 10 minutes when I push play to stop fast forwarding. I haven't bothered trying to report it or anything because it's been do hard to get Dish to even acknowledge such problems...
