    Cbs 2 OTA Chicago

    Same thing for Orlando channel 9 OTA. It just shows "no information available" in the guide. WFTV ABC has been in a dispute for a very long time. Have they stopped providing guide data for locals in dispute?

    Hopper 3 software H371

    Thanks for the response. That was one of the first things I tried and it didn't help. I'll try it again and report back if it fixes the problem.

    Hopper 3 software H371

    Our H3 updated to 371 on the 27th. I'm not sure it is tied to the update but since then the guide never goes beyond about 36 hours. I've done daily manual guide updates with the same result. It's anyone else seeing this? I suspect the H3 is starting to fail (it is original from soon after they...

    Here we go again, Hearst tv group is gone

    I have always believed that if broadcast stations are available for free ota the SAT and cable distributers should be allowed to distribute those channels in the broadcast area, at their expense, without any charge. Perhaps the broadcasters should start paying for access to the public airwaves.

    Here we go again, Hearst tv group is gone

    Another dispute begins, which shows what a mess television distribution is in now. In central Florida we just lost our NBC affiliate and have been missing ABC for months. At least we still have ESPN, unlike our neighbors with Spectrum. I wonder when the Dish contract with Disney expires? We...

    Returning customer, need advice

    4 - multiple folders can be created on the hopper 3 although I'm not sure of the maximum number. When creating a timer it is optional to specify a folder for the recording. The default is no folder. Within the folder it will create subfolders if there are multiple episodes of a program. On an...

    USB3 2TB HD

    I tested with an existing WD My Book 3TB drive this week and it worked fine. Then I purchased a new WD My Book 3TB drive and am transferring programs right now. It is working without any problems. I also have a 2TB drive attached and my Hopper w/sling shows the 3TB drive with 1.5 x the...

    DishAnywhere mobile app totally useless lately?

    Fabulous news! I have tried this on a Nexus 7 and an iPad mini and both work now. At first it did show all the receivers old and new. After logging out and back in it only shows the correct receiver and I was able to play back a recorded program. Posted Via The FREE SatelliteGuys Reader App!

    Hopper Upgrades

    I'd appreciate being contacted about a system upgrade. We would like to upgrade our 2 Hopper, 2 Joey system to 1 Hopper w/Sling, 1 Super Joey, and keep the 2 existing Joeys. The system was installed the first weekend after the Hopper release so we are out of contract. Also, would it be...

    Hopper S221 Feedback

    Cancelled by user fixed? Both our hoppers had S221 this morning. After running tests on both it appears that the problem of recordings showing as cancelled by user has been fixed. The test for this was to schedule 3 programs then schedule another 3 on different channels immediately after the...

    Hopper S216 Feedback

    I tested with S217 this morning and the cancelled by user problem still exists. It wouldn't be so bad if the hopper would reschedule the skipped recording, but it does not.

    Hopper S216 Feedback

    Actually the hopper is in my office, thus named "office". It almost always says cancelled by the hopper where it is supposed to record.

    Hopper S216 Feedback

    Recording canceled by user We updated to S216 on both hoppers overnight and the problem with timers showing as canceled by user is still occurring. It is very easy to duplicate. Set up 3 half hour programs to record at the same time. Then create 3 new timers (all on different channels) for...

    More Team Summt Pics

    Have you found a keyboard that works? I have tried that before and just did so again with the current software. It only recognizes the number keys and a few others. The alpha keys are not recognized. Tried both upper and lower case. The numeric keys (both 10 key pad and upper row of number...

    PTAT question for Scott or anyone with Hopper installed now

    Can anyone confirm that PTAT does work as described in the answer from Dish to question 11? 11) Question about PTAT. If I currently have a timer for Fringe on Fox, will I still need a timer on the Hopper to have Fringe automatically move to my part of the hard drive, or is the only way to save...

    Hopper news updates

    Thanks for the update. The wait is driving me crazy! Now that you have details on retailer payments, am I doing a local retailer any favors by upgrading directly from them? Or does the vast majority of dealer profit come from new customers?

    Orlando area WOFL OTA EPG

    Today I had a call from a tech with Echo* engineering about this issue. He must have been working on DobieLuvr's issue. I reported a problem with WOFL OTA listings in an email to dishquality@echostar.com in January. He wanted to be sure my problem from back then was indeed fixed. WESH also...

    Picture quality with S-Video vs RF output

    I would like to connect a receiver to my Windows Media Center computer. Does anyone have any real world experience comparing the picture quality of an S-Video connection with RF? It appears that the 211k is the only one of the most current receivers to offer S-Video.

    How to get the receiver models I want

    Thanks for the feedback. I considered going the two 722k route until I saw that the 722k does not have a S-Video output. I will be using one receiver to feed recordings in Windows Media Center and would like to use S-Video for the highest quality input signal.

    How to get the receiver models I want

    I am about ready to return to Dish Network after 5 and a half years of Brighthouse Networks. Once I see a little more about how the 722k works in the field it will be time. What is the best way to order a system and receive the specific receivers I want? This move makes sense for us if we...
