    Team Summit Pics Video and Live Recap!

    Do you have to have a 922 receiver to get reimbursed from Dish for the Slingplayer app? I don't have a 922 (I have a 722 not connected online) and when I go log-on to Dishremote I can't find any instructions on reimbursement. My Slingbox Solo is actually hooked up in a different room to my 501.

    Team Summit Pics Video and Live Recap!

    One can can only hope but I seriously doubt it...most other apps that have been upgraded for the iPad have given no such breaks for previous iPhone/iTouch owners.

    Cinemax penny deal ending??

    I went online to my account today to cancel Cinemax because April was my last free month, upon doing so it had $25 in cancellation fees. $5 for a downgrade and $20 for adult programming removal. I quickly cancelled that and went to chat support and the rep told me no fees would be applied.

    Signal being lost during DVR playback??

    I had the same problem on my 722k....disconnected my OTA, removed the OTA channels from the guide and I haven't had the problem since. Kind of sucks though, this was the whole reason I went out and got the OTA module for and now I can't use it.

    Question about broadband for 922

    I have a Slingbox Solo with paltry DSL speeds as well (368k upstream). It's good for viewing on the iPhone app and so-so viewing on a computer in a small letterbox. In terms of viewing within your own home network the broadband speeds don't matter, it's all based on your home cabling (Cat-5...

    Appeals Court Finds Echostar in Contempt in TIVO Case

    I bought the 501 model way back to avoid the $5-6 DVR fee since it was "grandfathered in" along with some of the older model DVRs. I still have it as a secondary unit for a bedroom SD TV and it still works like a champ (way better than the 721 I used to have). Do you think I will now be hit...

    Military Channel now included in Silver 200?

    I was browsing through my program guide last night and noticed I'm now picking up the Military Channel (channel 195). I have the Classic Silver 200 package. Is this a free preview or is this channel now included in the Silver package? According to Dish's website, the Military Channel is still...

    OK who has been a E sub the longest?

    Signed up in December 1998. Had a buddy that worked at Sam's Club in the electronics dept, told him I wanted to get rid of Time Warner and he told me to come on over and take a look at the new satellite retailer they had called Dish Network. Bought the 4900 for the living room and the 2700 for...

    I enjoyed "The Academy" series when I had AT250 though other than that it wasn't really watched.

    3 Months free of Showtime and HBO

    Tried to play the roulette wheel with 3 CSR's via tech chat, all three told me that since my HBO/Starz promo just ended that they were actually "blocked" in their system from trying to add the HBO/Showtime promo. I even tried the long time customer line and got no where. Lucky you.

    No Phone Line = FREE Pay Per View?

    I can remember on older legacy models it would require a "phone connection test" before ordering pay-per-vew. I would order it, it would decline and say plug in a phone line, I would then plug it in and it would perform the test, I would go back and order it and then remove the phone line right...

    Went through tech chat to get it, 1st time the CSR said I would need to sign up for 24 month commitment, closed the window and went in again. The next time the CSR said no problem and signed me up...got home from work and nothing was turned on. I went back on to tech chat and the CSR...

    Playboy HD- When will this happen?

    You can always get the Skinamax for a penny per month promotion. You don't get all the "action" like the other PPV channels but you do get a couple HD channels that are, let's just say "eye popping". Not bad for a penny.

    Cancelling 1 cent/ year Cinemax - any Penalty

    I think you can only get the deal over the phone, I tried the online chat and even though they confirmed the deal they couldn't accept my CC info through the chat. My question I have is once the promo period is over, can I get off paperless billing and go back to paper billing without a hassle...

    No ESPN NewsHD this morning?

    I'm counting the days until Dish does get their act together. I get my daily dose of ESPN news every morning before work to catch up on last nights games and now they've changed their programing for HD. All the box scores and game info are on the side of the screen instead of after the replay...

    E* locals in Los Angeles

    I put up a little amplified antenna and get great reception of ktla5 and kcal9, especially Dodgers and Lakers games. The ability to record one of these channels while I'm recording two other satellite feeds is awesome. Even if dish did add these channels I would still be watching them OTA.
