    New Customer - Impression After One Week!

    The Autohop symbol was showing up on my list, but I have two unwatched shows under the icon - one from tonight and one from last week. And upon deeper look, I see that the Autohop is only on last week's recording, not tonight's. So, Autohop only happens the day after - interesting!

    New Customer - Impression After One Week!

    Tonight alone Blackish recorded with Autohop, yet Modern Family and Goldbergs didn't. Someone want to explain that one? :)

    New Customer - Impression After One Week!

    Actually, I am several weeks in now and I notice that Autohop is not available on all my PTAT shows. But when it is available, I have to admit that I like it a lot. I guess in my mind, I was expecting the commercials to just disappear completely for a smooth seamless viewing experience. So...

    New Customer - Impression After One Week!

    I wasn't knocking it...I just didn't understand why it is not available on all shows. Its not even available on all PTAT shows. I have since tried it and my commercials are not skipped entirely. I still saw a few seconds of a couple commercials each break. So, it is a nice feature, but because...

    Thanks! Any suggestions on how to resolve the Harmony 650 signal passthrough issues to the Hopper 3 with my HDMI IR Blaster?

    New Customer - Impression After One Week!

    I am a new DISH customer...well, my install was last Saturday, so it is technically a day short of a week, but I have enough time to feel comfortable with the post. Prior to making the switch to DISH, I had been a Directv customer since 2012. My Set-up: I have the Hopper 3 Sling connected to a...

    Hopper 3 remote question

    I just recently became a DISH customer (last Saturday) with a Hopper 3. I also have a similar set-up as the original poster, except I have a Pioneer receiver and a Harmony 650 remote. I was able to program both the Hopper's 52.0 remote and the Harmony 650 to control everything perfectly. The...

    New Dish hopper voice remote

    And where does one purchase this 50.0 Voice Activated Remote?

    I sure wish I could find a backlit remote control

    My question - why in the world would they not have made the DISH 52 backlit? Such an easy thing and every remote seems to have that feature.

    I sure wish I could find a backlit remote control

    Just switched to Dish Hopper 3 from Directv, and have to say I love everything about it EXCEPT the fact that the remote is not backlit!

    Possible to cancel local channels?

    I just signed up for Dish and they offered my $5/mth discount for doing e-bill. Maybe its just for new customers.

    10 year customer leaving this crappy service.

    I just came to Directv from DISH and have found the product, content and service all to be upgrades!

    Dish HD vs Disney (DISH sort of won...)

    I reached my limit this weekend after having to watch two football games in SD on ESPNU. Called DISH and found that I am not under contract, then called Directv and scheduled my new install tomorrow. I sincerely hope those were the last football games I ever have to watch in crappy SD!!!!!

    Official DISH Channel Request Thread

    Watched to football games on ESPNU in SD this weekend and my head is still hurting....what a crappy picture...and all completely unnecessary! I am personally so tired of waiting for ESPNU in HD on DISH, that I called and am moving back to Directv tomorrow.

    New Channels

    Sick and tired of waiting for ESPNU HD on DISH. If they don't have it by the time my contract is up, bye-bye DISH!

    So whos NOT getting a Hopper due to lack of OTA?

    I'm not off base at all. My 2nd TV off my 922 is a SD in my kitchen, which works perfect with that set up. I fully realize I can get a Joey for the kitchen and keep the functionality I have today for an extra $84+ per year! No thanks!

    Anyone noticed that getting Blockbuster disks at home has suddenly slowed to a crawl?

    Agreed...I used to be a NetFlix subscriber, but dumped them after they decoupled the streaming service from the DVD service. But one thing you could say about NetFlix; they were always fast on turning around DVDs! I made the jump to DISH's Blockbuster offering thinking that I would eventually...

    So whos NOT getting a Hopper due to lack of OTA?

    The deal-breaker for me isn't the OTA issue, although it is a consideration. Frankly, the deal-breaker with me on the Hopper is the lack of a 2nd TV output like the 622/722/922 have now. It is so integrated into my set-up, I am not sure I can live without it.

    Will 922 Ever Get Blockbuster At Home

    Wow, just read this and checked this am and I indeed have Blockbuster@Home. That said, I scanned thru the HD movies and its pretty much filled with crap...IMHO. Hardly any recent releases. I think I will get zero value out of this!

    Questions about The Hopper?

    I have a 922 now and use the 2nd TV output for a EDTV in my kitchen. Does the Hopper have a 2nd TV output? If not, is there an easy solution?
  21. Pakbackr

    No More 922

    Anyone know if the Hopper will have a 2nd TV coax output like the 922 has now?

    Are we ever going to see BBMP....

    'Soon' as in 2012? I work in a computer science department at one of the nations best engineering schools. I bet I could take a couple of students and have this done in a few days!

    BBMP ON 922

    I believe NOTHING that Dish claims anymore!

    Random Signal Issue Upon Start-up

    Checked the HDMI status and it checks out ok...not sure how to perform an HDMI reset. I noticed last night when we experienced the problem, when the 922 fired back up, my wireless broadband connection was red (an issue with the 922 as my laptop and iPad had strong connection). I intend to check...

    Random Signal Issue Upon Start-up

    Well, my theory was wrong. Within two hours of posting above, I encountered exact same problem! :(
