Me too--same problem with 1 recorded movie. It's okay that I can't watch it, but I need to delete it.

Hooray! Someone (Santa?) somewhere is listening, because yesterday and today tpt channel 2 evening programming has returned to widescreen HD. (At least in the shows I watched.) My thanks and holiday cheer to everyone who contributed here. Have a merry!

I have now confirmed that KTCI, tpt channel 17, is now shown as SD (Standard Definition) on my DISH locals, which explains why its programming appears fuzzy and letter-boxed. I had not noticed that change before--thank you, syphix. But KTCA, tpt channel 2, still shows as HD (High Definition) in...

So DirecTV figured this out while DISH has not?

After some experimentation, I can now report what I see. National PBS programming that fills the widescreen on Lakeland PBS KAWB (channel 22), appears in lower resolution (fuzzy) and boxed on tpt KTCA (channel 2) and KTCI (channel 17). I assume that DISH does some conversion of the incoming...

The timing is about right, October 25th, for your analysis to be correct. But how do the ATSC changes affect DISH local channels? And, is it my imagination that some of the tpt programming that used to fill my 4K (non-HDR) HD widescreen now displays in boxes? Also, the DISH guide for the local...

Is anyone else in the greater Twin Cities area (mid- and southern Minnesota/western Wisconsin) seeing new problems with tpt channel 2 (KTCA)? (I get all my local stations through DISH, not via antenna.) All programming on tpt 2 is pausing, dropping out, going black, coming back, etc., to the...

Thanks to everyone here for confirming I am not losing my marbles!

Ah-ha! That's the answer. I accidentally enabled PrimeTime Anytime a few weeks ago, then turned it back off. Now I'll check to see that it, and AutoHop, are both off again. Thank you very much!

But I never enabled AutoHop. Could a recent upgrade have turned it on by default?

I love my Hopper 3 on DISH Network, but I'll admit that I don't follow every change in every software upgrade. So I've been surprised recently with a change I've noticed. I've never used AutoHop, but just repeatedly pressed the 30-second fast forward button quickly to skip through commercials in...

Better than a surge protector, put the Hopper on an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) with surge protection built in. It cost me very little (< $100) to put in a small UPS that gives me a little over an hour of battery power. (Just my opinion--I'm not an engineer.)

That message might be generic, but it's the one we see when the tpt stations in the Twin Cities are undergoing maintenance. They have publicized widely about their upgrade happening in July and August.

Speaking of 2FA... DISHAnywhere (DA) became available in my Web browser today, the first time since the hack. (There's no DA app on a Windows computer.) However, it's using a new 2FA login method that does not work well for me. It never gives me a prompt for my password; instead, it asks for a...

On an earlier model of the Hopper or a non-Hopper DISH DVR, it was possible to set that sports timer default, up to 90 minutes. It's not possible to set that anymore, at least not on my Hopper 3?

I agree. After months of not really liking any of the DISHscapes (199 or 198), the November "Late Fall Mountain" is wonderful. Especially in this loud, fractious time before the election, this quiet, natural landscape is a welcome relief. Thank you, DISH!

I'm using DISHAnywhere.com in the latest Google Chrome Web browser on a Windows 10 computer. The list of available DVR recordings is sometimes up-to-date, but more often lags by hours, if not a few days. Clearly, this is a problem of just getting DISH Anywhere to update it cache, its list of...

Confirmed: This new version of Chrome is using 200-300MB more memory than the previous versions did, when streaming one live channel in DISH Anywhere.

I'm not saying that DA never works on Microsoft Edge at all, only that it does not work reliably. I might get one DA program to play in Edge, but then the next one won't. Or a program will play one day and not the next. I'd rather have total failure than unpredictable, intermittent success. So I...

OK, that last Chrome update to version 106.0.5249.62 did something for DA. It's still slow, but at least now I can display the Guide. ooo, ooo, I can even stream a channel now. I guess it's "fixed". I hate being a beta tester for updates.

The latest version of Microsoft Edge is Chromium-based, but I have a theory. With a background in computers, and having tried a few hundred Web sites, I think that Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge allocate and/or manage memory very differently. I think Edge takes a conservative approach, while...

I don't like any of the new DISHscapes with continuous music. I miss the ones that used nature sounds ties to that particular landscape. Is anyone else annoyed by all the unwanted music?

Has anyone heard about any progress with TEGNA? Any ideas on how much longer this might drag out? Just wondering...

This is a great suggestion, but... Over-The-Air (OTA) won't work, as I'm in south central Minnesota, 43 miles from the Twin Cities broadcast antennas in Shoreview. I'm not just guessing about this--I've tried OTA with every indoor antenna I can find. If had a window on the north side of my...

Here in the Twin Cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul, we lost KARE11 (NBC) Wednesday night, about 75% of the way through Chicago Med. So we missed that, Chicago Fire and P.D., and Thursday's Law & Order SVU and OC. I went to NBC's Web site to watch missed episodes online. I did not "link" to my...
