    Dish Spam

    "Unless you've actually responded to the spam emails that you're receiving, you do not know for sure if the Dish spam is even from a legitimate company... so how can Dish be held even slightly responsible..? Most Spam is really just an attempt at email and personal information harvesting... with...

    Dish Spam

    Yea I never used to get any spam until family and friends got hacked so that all of the email addresses in their contacts were "stolen" so now they have a list of real people to spam. These emails make their way to lists that are shared or even sold. I have several other "junk" email addresses...

    Dish Spam

    I am constantly getting spammed by independent satellite installation companies selling Dish subscriptions. I try to filter them out but they just use new email addresses. I know it's not coming directly from Dish, but these companies represent Dish IMO in a bad light by spamming customers. At...

    Some Channels Dropping Out

    I have a DPP44 switch, 1000.4 dish, looking at 61.5/72 & 77 sats. It's definitely my locals that keep dropping out but also a few other channels like CNBC.

    I'm in NY and I have all 722k's and lately some of the channels are pixillating and dropping out . How do I figure out what is causing this and how to fix ?

    Dish Blocked With Snow, How to get to OTA on 722

    Ahhhh that explains why I was getting OTA channels were working yesterday but not today since they reboot overnight. Thanks, at least I know I wasn't imagining that it did work even when the sat signal is lost.

    Dish Blocked With Snow, How to get to OTA on 722

    I'm handicapped so I can't get up on the roof. I have a fairly complicated set-up: all 4 receivers in a utility closet and distributed out to 8 TV's modulated on different channels , so I don't want to start changing the wiring and how the modulators are set on each of the TV's etc. It's warming...

    Dish Blocked With Snow, How to get to OTA on 722

    Exactly. And I tried that KAB, thanks. The guide won't come up at all I think because it does get that info from the sats. I have 4 722k receivers, all have OTA modules, all hooked up to antenna for years. I've always been able to get the OTA channels during rain fade or blockage but now I...

    Watch 722 DVR on a Distant TV?

    I think hers is an iPad2, it definitely has a 30pin connector. It may actually be easiest and cheapest to just buy her an inexpensive Android tablet dedicated just to the TV. In general I wish they made it easier to stream the programming we pay for to a TV. I do understand their reluctance...

    Watch 722 DVR on a Distant TV?

    Thanks for that because I was just about to order an adapter! Are you guys saying that an Android tablet will work though? She also has a Mac laptop, does anyone know fro sure if that will work vid HDMI to the TV?

    Watch 722 DVR on a Distant TV?

    My daughter is going away to college and I'd like to know if there's a way for her to watch her recordings on her TV at school. I have a Sling adapter, and I know she can watch that from a computer/tablet/cell phone, but is there any way to watch directly on a TV ?

    Any Way to Watch On-Line Videos on a TV

    I know that makes no sense to me, in general it makes no sense that many content providers will allow you to watch their programs in a computer, but not on a TV within the same home/network. BTW, what's a JB (do you have the letter's reversed because I know what that is lol?)? BUT, that's not...

    Any Way to Watch On-Line Videos on a TV

    Ok so I have an ATV hooked up to my AVR and I'm able to mirror what I am seeing on my computer onto the TV. Questions: Is there any way to control the computer from my home theater TV? Is there any way to mirror content from the Dish Anywhere app or browser on my iPad? I get an error message...

    Any Way to Watch On-Line Videos on a TV

    Thanks guys, I think I'll give Apple TV a try. It's probably the easiest way to go (for me at least).

    Any Way to Watch On-Line Videos on a TV

    I have an iMac that's about 1 years old running 10.8.4. So you are saying that anything I can watch on a browser I can watch via ATV? I can enlarge to full screen just like I do on the computer? I'd rather that go hardwired if possible.

    Any Way to Watch On-Line Videos on a TV

    There's so many videos that are 0n-line only, not just from Dish but from many other sources. I have a 722, a Mac, iPads, a Roku and a Marantz AVR, and some videos will play via Plex but most will not . Is there any possible way to play them all on a TV either with hardware or software?

    HBO: The News Room scheduled on ch.465?

    I agree with all of the posters calling this Spam, including the banners that pop up sometimes. Not to take this OT, but the TV watching experience is getting more and more aggravating as program providers and advertisers are trying to invade every aspect of that experience. I'm talking about...

    Dish just called me -- Free sling adapter?

    I really wish you could record/transfer directly to an iPad rather than just stream. I'm hoping they will be able to add that feature at some point since they did on the Hopper.

    CES-2013 PR: DISH’s New “Hopper with Sling” Delivers Unparalleled Choice and Control, at Home or On

    You guys think there's a chance this video transfer will work with a 622/Sling adapter set-up?

    DISH Drops AMC Networks (AMC Back on DISH channel 131)

    But the title of this thread that they are posting to pretty much answers any general "What happened to AMC" question rather immediately don't you think lol.

    Anyone Want to Sell Their Roku?

    Well I wound up ordering a refurb directly from Roku today since I didn't receive any offers that were worth taking here. FWIW, I have also owned a Vudu and AppleTV in the past and I prefer the Roku much more.

    Anyone Want to Sell Their Roku?

    Just an FYI: if you subscribe to HBO and Cinemax through Dish, they have channels on the Roku that you can stream from (HBO GO & Max Go) which is a nice perk. Showtime has one also but it's a joke.
