Maybe or perhaps

I just got a call from Dish. They were responding to 2 topics I had sent to the CEO e mail.

1. To add FSN Wisconsin.

She said there were no plans to add it. I then suggested that they at least dedicate one specific RSN alternate as the home of the Brewers/Bucks, etc. as Directv has done. This way we would not have to search through the numerous RSN's to find the game for that day.

She liked that suggestion and said that it would be shared with the program directors.

2. The MLB network. I suggested that it would be a good time to talk to them relative to expanding their viewership, as their latest numbers have been dreadful. They might be receptive to adding it to the basic carriages that Dish has.

She said they are constantly getting that request, but, was non commital to that suggestion.

Be interesting to see if any of this happens.

My question to you is -

Why are you so defensive about Dish Network? Why do you feel a need to ridicule anyone that says anything negative about them.

That is the question you still have not answered.

Ok, maybe ridicule is not the right word.

How about....belittle, talk down to, make an OP feel stupid for asking the question or making the statement, deride, badger, gibe, haze, humiliate, jape, jeer, jive, lampoon, laugh at, make a fool of, make a laughing-stock, make fun of, mimic, mock, needle, pan, poke fun at, pooh-pooh, put down, rag, rail at, rally, raz, rib, ride, roast, run down, scoff, scorn, show up, sneer, takeoff, taunt, disdain.

Better?

Also, how about you answer the same question KAB?

You guys are so quick to spit judgment, and yet never explain where it comes from.

Nice way to deflect the question, yet once again...... :rolleyes:


I'm just tired of you knee-jerk Dish apologists attacking or questioning every person that has an issue with Dish, and decided to start asking you questions, which seems to make you guys particularly uncomfortable.

Umm, he DID judge, he automatically assumed that the OP was slamming Dish's numbers, instead of reading the post and seeing that the OP meant MLB numbers were "dreadful".

Has anyone noticed an FF stutter with 713? I used to be able to hit FF a few times and skip smoothly. After 713 (maybe 712), when I skip forward, there is a definite stutter for as many times as I have pressed FF.

Can anyone check on this and report back? Recorded programs and then press skip forward a few times to see if it's smooth? Normally, it just jumps to the right place after the skips.

It's a known issue.
For a temporary fix, go into the menu, Audio, and turn Dolby Audio "OFF". You will have PCM stereo audio.

I was able to give the tech ops team some data logs so they could diagnose the problem, and they rolled me back to H708 temporarily. It fixed that issue.

They let me know that they understand what caused the issue, and it will be fixed within a few weeks in a new update.

I guess they will be busy when lots of people start asking for rollbacks to H708 now that you mention that downgrades of software does exist because it will likely fix the OTA Single Tuner and the IR Remote problems in H710-H713.

I think they were more of a transitional receiver bridging the VIPs to the Hopper. They were a PITA to install and were buggy. Personally, I thought at the time that they were the best receiver out there. The versatility of the VIP's with the new Hopper GUI and, by far, the coolest-looking front plate and lighting.

I don't recall that they came out just before hopper, but rather that they came out even before 722. Or could be thinking of 921.

As to the title pf the post, "rare" does not necessarily mean valuable or desirable.

You are thinking of the 921. The 922 was the first DVR with Sling functionality built in (that was eventually disabled along with the Sling Adapter for the 722s and the 1st Hopper because they relied on now-defunct Adobe Flash technology). With the bugginess described by others and the removal of its marquee feature (Sling) the 922 faded into obscurity once the Hopper 2 with built in Sling was released and they finally made the concept into a fully functional product.

I had one, the front panel lighting was cool, the menus were fresh and a lot more modern looking than the ViPs. However, it was very buggy and the Sling functionality just didn't work well - I think it was due to internet speeds at the time. I think I had to pay $40 for the Sling app on my phone iirc.

Song Name Game Part 3!

Sometimes a thread gets so many posts in it that is can cause issues for the server so that why today we introduce The Song Name Game Part 3!

So let the game continue!

The last song was added by Bobby who posted...

One Meat Ball - Andrews Sisters

CONTINUE ON AND HAVE FUN! WELCOME HOME TO SATELLITEGUYS.US!

Here are the original rules for the game as posted by WebbyDude back in 2006. http://www.satelliteguys.us/threads/68645-Song-Name-Game

Just name a song title and the band who performed it. The next person does the same thing, but needs to list a song title or band name which includes a word from the previous entry. Pick songs from any genre.

Example:

Long Live Rock and Roll -- Rainbow

Rainbow in the Dark -- Dio

Another example:

Ride the Lightning -- Metallica

Lightning Strikes -- Ozzy Osbourne


Get it?


An additional note: we all know that song titles, sometimes, use profane words. Because this is a family friendly website it is advised that you clean up that title up a bit. This is accomplished by using something like sh!t instead of the real word. Thanks....

Stargate SG-1 cancelled, Atlantis renewed

Monday - August 21, 2006 | by Darren Sumner
clear.gif

The future of Stargate is in question today, as SCI FI Channel has cancelled the long-running Stargate SG-1, Multichannel News reported today and a GateWorld source has confirmed. The news regrettably follows the airing of the show's milestone two-hundredth episode on Friday.

Stargate Atlantis, meanwhile, has been renewed for a fourth season, with the network hoping to see that the spin-off series can stand alone, according to a source.

Well, there are a couple involving the Antarctic. "Solitudes", S1 E17 (one of my favorites), Then, "Lost City', S7 E21 and E22. Then, in the SGA pilot, "Rising", S1 E1 and E2, it starts out in the Antarctic for about the first 20 minutes or so.
