    Blockbuster now on Roku

    True. You can't please everybody. I would think it would be announced. One weekend per month, one new release, not announcing the actual movie. My point was just thinking lots of people who normally do not rent ppv would be enticed to do so. Maybe I'm off though.

    Blockbuster now on Roku

    I wonder as well. Somebody else may have mentioned it is high due to the purchased rights to carry from the studios as compared to other mediums? So, I'm thinking that is a sunk cost. What would happen if dish offered $1.99 HD rentals 1 weekend per month? Would the increased volume help them...

    Blockbuster now on Roku

    Wow an app to rent a movie on roku :-) I've been using the amazon app for quite awhile now after dish removed the blockbuster app from my bluray player and no option on the roku. Argo is $4.98 for 48 hours in HD from amazon. I have never rented a ppv movie through dish due to the price...

    Dish Remote App Help

    Thanks so much! I didn't even notice it was playing in "standard quality" since it froze pretty quickly. I hope the CSR's & DIRT are aware of the workaround as more people start to get Nexus 7's & 4's and devices are upgraded to 4.2.1 (if it is tied to the android version).

    Dish Remote App Help

    Works fine on my wife's Samsung galaxy s3 running 4.1.1 and my old HTC incredible running gingerbread. Confirmed the same issue with my friends nexus 4 at work today. This was all tested using my id. Hopefully an update will be coming soon.

    Dish Remote App Help

    I'm running 4.2.1 on Nexus 4. This definitely looks like an issue with newer phones and operating systems based on Google play reviews. Wonder why it works on rooted vs non rooted. Hope it gets a fish soon, was counting on watching football at a work.

    Good ol Verizon--I am in the process of firing them.

    Dish Remote App Help

    Yeah, 4.2.1 It's funny because I still have my Verizon phone (htc inc) active so I can flip between than and my Nexus 4. Both running on WiFi. Maybe I will try uninstalling and reinstalling. However, I do not think that is the issue since I can log in fine, view the grid, view DVR etc It is...

    Dish Remote App Help

    So I finally upgraded my old HTC Incredible for a Nexus 4. Long story short, my Dish Remote App worked fine with my HTC Inc--can watch live tv or anything on my dvr. On my Nexus 4, it starts up and I have live sound but the picture just stays static. Assuming this needs to be fixed with an...

    Google and Dish Network allegedly in talks for new wireless service

    Interesting. I am in the process of firing Verizon and would always welcome new competition.

    HUB Channel

    Thanks! It seems weird, when I go to all channels I can see other channels I'm not subscribed to, but not this one for some reason. I'm dropping Blockbuster since I am not getting my $10 worth out of that and I have had enough issues with it. But I thought I would trade that $10 for the AT...

    HUB Channel

    Quick question that I couldn't seem to find when searching. It looks like the HUB channel should be on 179 if you have America's top 250? I currently have AT 200. When I go to "all channels" I do not see 179 listed. Does Dish still carry this channel? Thanks!

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

    I chatted earlier today, and was very polite to the csr. I got a $10 credit for 6 months, which I will take. I didn't push very hard for a roku. I did think it was odd I was being told I could go out and purchase the device and then pay $2 to $3 per episode without being offered it. That being...

    complete signal loss in KC Metro?

    Nevermind, working now. I went to system info, it froze, I cancelled and it seems to be working fine. Odd.

    DISHONLINE ISSUES

    Looks like I'm connected this morning, which hasn't happened in awhile. This was after unplugging, reconnecting components. One thing to note is when my receiver came to, it gave a message about a title being ready to view I downloaded a few days ago so maybe it was stuck somehow. I do...

    DISHONLINE ISSUES

    Does anybody have any other ideas for a work around? I have a 2wire modem/router, model # 3800HGV-B with ATT Uverse and I have a VIP722K. I am using the Netgear wireless adapter purchased from the dish store and the $99 sling adapter purchased dish as well. I was able to use DRA & DishOnline...

    DISHONLINE ISSUES

    I am going to try this tonight. Is it odd I am having this problem on a 722k? I thought it was isolated to 722s based on posts. Just started having issue 2 weeks again. Worked fine for 2 years prior.

    broadband connected = no

    I just noticed when I go to my equipment on dishnetwork.com under my account it says my receiver is not connected to broadband. I recently switched from a homeplug to a wireless router. I can use dish remote access on my phone and dishonline fine. Does this status have any effect on anything?

    Dish channel line up vs AT&T U-Verse channel line up

    Definitely look at a neighbors picture quality on hd and ask them about audio drops, how many times they reset their box per day. Uverse was the worst product I have used, but some people in my area that switched to uverse from Comcast liked it (comcast is horrible here) For one year I got a...

    red sox vs Royals

    Jeez, yeah, somehow my 446 SD channel was locked. Wouldn't show up in search, stupid me. Maybe the Royals will hide mistakes better in SD :) thanks

    red sox vs Royals

    So when I go to where's my game and type in my zip code of 66210, it shows that I should see this game on channel 446 and it requires Americas top 120. I do not have the game there or on any other channel that I can see. I have Americas top 200. Is this normal?

    Dear Friends... (A Note about the Sling Adapter Promotion)

    Just ordered mine via chat as well. No reference number, but the order shows up online. Guess I need to figure out how this will work now. Does this use the tv1 stream?
