    Discovery Plus

    The wife is interested in this service but it really stinks they are charging for it when we already pay for the Discovery suite of Channels. Why don’t they make the $4.99 ad supported version either that for cord cutters, or FREE if you log in with a valid...

    DISH Four Tuner USB OTA Adapter Rumor

    Always have to one up DirecTV right? DirecTV has been shipping out lots of LCC (2 tuner OTA USB adapters paired with a Winegard FL5500 amplified mouse pad style antenna). Since Nexstar and CBS disputes, so many of these are going out, I’m sure the competition (Dish) is well aware and will come...

    Why does music go out before HD on our commercial Dish system at work

    When looking at weather radar, I would say 99.9% of the time, it’s traveling west to east. I guess we can say this one is solved. Thanks for talking this one through with me. It’s always nice to satisfy those little curiosities.

    Why does music go out before HD on our commercial Dish system at work

    Yeah here are screen shots from our CNN TV. Maybe we do have 2 dishes on the roof. I really thought it was one. I know we had even an older receiver for music that they came out and upgraded the video and music receiver and they were out on the roof. We got HD at that time, and locals -...

    Why does music go out before HD on our commercial Dish system at work

    Ok here’s some screen shots. I got in early enough to go in the screen before subjecting everyone to the buzzing sound this screen makes. I went into the menu, installation, dish aiming and it defaulted on this transponder. This receiver is so archaic and slow that just bringing up the...

    Why does music go out before HD on our commercial Dish system at work

    It all comes from a black dish network dish. In our area we are eastern arc. I could look tomorrow but I know if I venture into the signal level screen it sends a loud buzzing noise through the entire buildings audio signal! It’s not like DirecTV when you can discreetly check levels. I’d...

    Why does music go out before HD on our commercial Dish system at work

    Hello, At work we have a Dish Network system that feeds two commercial receivers. One is tube to audio only and we are actually billed through mood music for it. The other one supplies CNN HD for news and Nick for kids. When we get heavy rain, the music goes out first, but oddly the HD TV...

    Dish Network Sues Kodi Add-On Library “TV Addons

    I'm surprised how easy it is to get it working on a pc. Don't have any android TV boxes. I think what it could do is force Kodi to go to some sort of app store like approval method for addons. Kodi is great software and if they want to continue to exist they may have to go this route. Only...

    Keeping Dish receiver on in commercial setting

    I got a report from the managers at this location that some days this receiver turns on automatically, and some other days it does not. There must be a bug in the software because its set to turn on every day.

    Keeping Dish receiver on in commercial setting

    It's plugged into an addressable outlet strip made by APC. I logged into the outlet strip and there is no reboot schedule defined for the outlet that the 211k is plugged into. The APC outlet strip is connected to a rack mount CyberPower UPS that is functioning normally as it also powers an HP...

    Keeping Dish receiver on in commercial setting

    I don't understand why there should be a "duration". All the software needs to do is have a date/time and channel number to switch to. What happens when the duration elapses? It doesn't know what channel to change to again right? They need to revise that whole portion of the software. If I...

    Keeping Dish receiver on in commercial setting

    Hmm crodrules that's an interesting observation. If that's the case I could set an autotune around midnight to change to a music channel. Then if the receiver reboots at 3 AM for updates, when it comes back on maybe it will actually return live to that music channel. Then setup another...

    Keeping Dish receiver on in commercial setting

    Its commercial, hence the 4 digit 4xxx channel numbers (disney on 4637 as opposed to 172 on residential). The receiver was unplugged for 24 hours as I took the 211k but brought it back the next day and replaced the 211z that was there. I could try another channel, the 211k was previously...

    Keeping Dish receiver on in commercial setting

    The manager at the location e-mailed me this morning and said that she is sorry to report that the TV still did not go on without her entering the IT room and pressing enter on the remote. Short of canceling Dish and going with Comcast or DirectTV, or looking into ways to encode our feed at HQ...

    Keeping Dish receiver on in commercial setting

    Maybe something with the 211z is corrupt. I'll try putting the 211k in it's place tomorrow morning when I'm back out at that office. Regardless, we have one extra receiver since we are sourcing the music from mood music now using a Barix device. So it doesn't matter which one I send back, as...

    Keeping Dish receiver on in commercial setting

    Bobby, I am pretty sure the autotune is set for 8:25 AM but it is not working. Would the 211k be a better receiver in its place?

    Keeping Dish receiver on in commercial setting

    We have a location that has a business Dish account and the problem they are having is that the location manager is having to go into the IT server room and turn on the Dish Network box every morning. There for a number of years they didn't have to do this (they did when the building first...

    YouTube App Debuts on Hopper 3

    Cool thanks for the reply. For some reason this thread doesn't update on Tapatalk. Anyway it sounds MUCH better than what DirecTV ever came out with. Then again the whole H3 platform seems much more robust.

    YouTube App Debuts on Hopper 3

    1. Can it play YouTube HD streams? (The now defunct DirecTV implementation was only 480p). 2. Does it support trick play? 3. Can you pair it to the YouTube mobile app and do your search/browsing on the mobile device, then "cast" the video to this YouTube app? Works great on xbox. 4. Does...

    New Hopper OS With Larger Font Option

    Looks ok but of course they just HAD to put a freaking banner ad on the screen. As if we don't get enough of that shite on the internet.

    DISH CES Press Conference Announcements

    Does dish intend to launch any new birds to house more HD and 4k content, or is the stuff likely coming from the internet? Overall I like the designs, but the 4k and Joey logos are huge on that box. Reminds me of this one Youtube video if Microsoft marketed the iPod. They start with a simple...

    Keep receivers on 24/7 for commercial acct

    We have 3 dish receivers on a commercial account. One is for building music, one is for news and one is for kids programming. Every morning the building manager who opens for the day has to go back to our IT room and use each labeled remote to power one each receiver. I thought I fixed this...

    Dish 500, old 2800 commercial receiver for Muzak - transponder issues

    Tech came out. Put a meter on the cable and we paged through all the transponders. The level was 59-60 and he said that was good. I forget the make and model of his meter, but it had an LCD screen on it with two bar graphs. It "verified" 119 W and everything passes. The only thing it...
