    4K Events Discussion Thread

    How long this year has Dish offered 4k HDR versions of football on 540-04. Is the HDR for NFL games only or college games too? Nothing is ever in my guide for the 540-04 channel since the Olympics. I do have a 4k test pattern and surround sound test that loops 24/7 on the 540-04...

    Does anyone here have a LG C1 OLED TV and Dish 4k (Hopper 3) The C1 recent models have a problem with HDCP. And would not play any 4k via HDMI. LG did a software update that fixes this problem. It did fix the problem for bluray players and streaming boxes. But if you try and play Dish's...

    Youtube TV (YTTV) the paid version has the 4k game listed for tomorrow (Sat.) Alabama-Birmingham at Georgia. This is only the 2nd or 3rd game ESPN has had on since they are now on YTTV. You can join for free two week trial I believe and record game. You must add the 4k add on package when...

    Dish 4K Subscription

    I think you need a package with your local Fox channel, also FS1 if you want the 4K on both channels. If I recall you only get the 4K if you have the channel in your core package in HD. The Olympics are a NBC event in 4k so you need the NBC channel locally I would guess for next summer's...

    No I didn't. I will try. But the real issue for me is DISH stupid behaviour of being so damn cheap and not just giving us the quality HDR version. They could even offer both SDR and HDR like Comcast is doing for the live games on two channels. It's not like anything is ever on their 4k...

    The NFL Colts game yesterday on Dish 4k had terrible color. About the worst I've seen yet. This whole stripping the HDR off is a stupid idea. Just put the original 4k HDR version on the HDR channel. Which looked good on Directv. Dish has got to be one of the biggest cheap ass companies I've...

    NFL Thursday Night Football in 4k looks bland

    Thanks for the added details. I'm not an Apple TV expert just got it to see streaming and the AppleTV works pretty solid. Not perfect. I hate the remotes. But it's a solid box. A few weeks back I thought it looked like real HDR and better picture of the NFL Thursday 4k games, when I compared...

    NFL Thursday Night Football in 4k looks bland

    Thanks for the CBand info. A quick followup. So do you still use the big dish for CBand or is it now also on a small dish from some specialty supplier? As well as a CBand Satellite box? And regarding the CBand HDR for tonight vs. the Fox Sports APP with your Apple TV. I am being told that...

    NFL Thursday Night Football in 4k looks bland

    Can you share more info on the CBand feed in 4k. How does it look compared to all other channels / versions you looked at in 4k. A lot better? Does it show in HDR on CBand? Thanks. Curious. I had CBand years ago but finally gave it up and went with the small dish. Didn't even know...

    NFL Thursday Night Football in 4k looks bland

    Dish looks acceptable, not terrible but as always NO HDR from the cheap ass company. At times you can can see visible artifacts of edges of things that have the interlaced look with the stair step pixels. Better than the HD channel. FUBO TV looks like absolute S###. Not just the 30P as always...

    540-03 has been added before and then later deleted from the guide. Not sure if they ever used it when it was there before. bjf

    I'm not a AppleTV expert. But it definately looked better and looked like HDR was on the FS APP. Same the week before for NFL ATV and FS APP. I do have it set on ATV to be 4K 60P and HDR (if that is a setup choice?). That is all I know. But it still looked better than Dish. Color with ATV...

    Hopper3 deleting recordings by itself

    mrbreeze640, My Hopper3 has been doing this same self deleting for several months. The work around is to archive to an external HD. Dish must have done something in some old update that f'ed up the software and started this auto deleting. And they've never fixed the problem. I didn't...

    NBC Sports Chicago Upcoming Renewal

    Riverpilot, I HATE AppleTV remotes too. How can they so damn stupid with these tiny little remotes. I also hate current touchpad remote as it's so hard to get your finger to slide across with accuracy. Especially when you are using the touchpad to type on the on screen keypad to login etc...

    Bobby, you are right on the money, it did sparkle with HDR on the Fox Sports APP I used with AppleTV. Sure would have liked to just use my DISH box to enjoy the game but watched it on the APP with the better picture. Thanks dish for giving your customers No HDR and No Respect. On top of being...

    Not happy with Dish's NFL 4K game. By comparison the Fox Sports APP using AppleTV looks great. Color is so much more vivid and accurate with HDR. But also the Fox Sports APP to my eyes looks sharper and less noise when they show darker areas. I go back and forth on my TV using the same HDMI...

    Why can't DISH get it together and give us these 4K football games both NCAA and NFL from Fox in HDR. Directv gets them ALL in 4K HDR. DISH has a dedicated f'ing channel and still won't give them to it's paying customers. Do they even have a clue anymore???????????? I see FINALLY we are...

    DISH brings back the Fox channels / FS1 and more

    BTW, I should have added "DISH caves in to pissed off football fans". No doubt lots of cancelled accounts and angry customers calling in. Who does this #### right at the start of football season!!!!!!!!! I'd bet dish was not prepared for the massive amount of anger pointed it's way for NFL...

    Dish / NBC Sports Net Chicago is now history on dish

    Dish decided to dump NBC Sports Net Chicago recently. I went to watch the Bears postgame and the channel is gone. Thanks DISH!!!! So dish brings back Fox channels and takes another one away. So for Bears fans tough luck. No pre-game or postgame for you. Probably hockey too. bjf

    Dish 4k channel guide deleted the NCAA football game for Saturday

    Yes, I'm sure that's what it going on. But I was hoping since my local Fox station is still on that the 4k game would be shown. It was still in the guide after FS1 was pulled. But they pulled the 4k game too. And I'm sure all Fox productions will now end on Dish 4k channel Feels great being...

    Dish won't even answer their phones now / pissed football fans?

    When you have no more channels to offer what will your excuses be then? Dish is nothing but a tv provider and this BS has gone on for years. I have spent a ton of bucks and the general idea is a happy viewer. Instead it's endless take off my channels. Some years back I lost CBS for 1 year. NO...

    Dish won't even answer their phones now / pissed football fans?

    Tried several times the past few hours to call and speak with Dish about the now gone Fox Sports 1 channel and the rest of the Fox channels pulled off dish. All I get it a message to push 6 for automated and it repeats and then cuts you off. Earlier I got further but the hold time was 59...

    Dish 4k channel guide deleted the NCAA football game for Saturday

    My 4k guide showed the Sat. College football game for tomorrow (Not in real 4k but on the 4k channel). But today it's gone. So I'm guessing with the FS1 being gone this has ended all 4k Fox football games and probably the baseball playoff games. And everything done by Fox. So the mostly...
