    fox sports dispute

    To the OP. I live in Columbia, MO and have lost the Cardinals and the Royals games on Dish. I'm an MLB.TV subscriber and subscribe to a VPN service (something I'd recommend if you ever use public hotspots). VPN lets me route my internet traffic through any number of cities, so I can see all...

    So I had Dish installed yesterday :(

    Thank you to everyone for your replies. Christina, I held down the SAT button for one minute. SAT lights up on the top of the remote, but nothing else does. Holding DVR+Guide also lights up SAT, but it doesn't do anything more. I never get any sounds. I'd un-paired the remote and receiver...

    So I had Dish installed yesterday :(

    Everything went fine, the installer finished a little before noon, and I went off to work. I was watching TV on my joey (small, slave receiver) last evening about 8 PM, and saw a message that I had a remote software update and could cancel it by pressing any key. I pressed any number of keys...

    I've never used this, but it looks perfect for streams. http://www.fountainware.com/Products/AudioDelay/

    MLB Extra Innings on Dish?

    IIRC, DirecTV and MLB tried to work out a monopoly like DirecTV has with Sunday Ticket. The federal government made some noise, and both sides backed off. Dish dropped MLB Extra Innings though. This was maybe between the 2006 and 2007 seasons?

    MLB Extra Innings on Dish?

    I bought this little toy: http://www.sportsyncradio.com/ It lets me delay the Cardinals radio broadcast to match the television. It's overpriced, but I LOVE IT.

    MLB Extra Innings on Dish?

    I've bought individual months of mlb.tv before, and I have a media PC connected to my main TV. The problem is that it only gets a 4:3, 1024x768 window in the middle of the set, with black bars on either side. I was hoping that that the package showing up for Dish in all of the TV listings...

    MLB Extra Innings on Dish?

    I've been considering switching to Dish for a few years now. One of the things keeping me with DirecTV is MLB EI. I remember Dish dropping it years ago (after 2006 maybe?). There is nothing about it at dish.com, and I can't find anything to lead me to believe that Dish has it except that all...

    Dish Pricing Question

    I am going to bump my own thread as I am getting serious about this now. If I want America's top 200 + HBO + Multi-Sport, my billing should be (after initial pricing expiration): $59.99 + $18 (ouch) + $9 Extra receiver fee (two total HD and one SD) = $7 All DVRs for $7 Total = $100.99 Have I...

    Cloning EHD

    So the Dish DVR is a simple ext3 drive? Is this true for DirecTV as well? I assume these are 2.5" or 3.5" SATA drives?

    Dish Pricing Question

    I have two HD receivers, one of which has a DVR, and one SD receiver. It would be nice to be able to watch the DVR in another room, even better to be able to watch two DVR items simultaneously as I have lost DVR priority to my three year old son and his Nick Jr. addiction. I watch my SD...

    Dish Pricing Question

    I called DirecTV last fall to complain about prices, specifically what I felt were excessive fees. I had never called them before, and they gave me a number of monthly credits, good for one year. Those are expiring in October, I think. Once those expire, I have got to lower my bill. I just...

    Dish Pricing Question

    I am a long time DirecTV customer who is seriously considering switching to Dish. I feel like I can save money with Dish. I am somewhat confused by their packaging though. The package that I am interested in is America's Top 200. Where I get confused is near the bottom of their page where...

    $50 Dish Grounding Inspection Fee passed by Omaha, Ne

    An earlier poster mentioned that DirecTV and Dish will litigate Omaha at a cost of more than the $2 million that they are trying to raise. I think that the DBS providers are the people to contact.
