To avoid the time hopping if syncing from the viewed channel or drifting if AC referenced. the GEOSATpro STBs use the channel 1 position to sync time in the automatic time mode. When the receiver is placed in standby, the time is internally referenced until the STB is rebooted or updated if the viewer places the receiver on a channel that shares the MUX with channel 1.
There are several ways to solve the SSO time issue if the firmware developer was directed to do so. Unfortunately, there are few legit receivers imported into North America that are "Openbox" or OEM authorized. There are many "Openbox" clone manufacturers and not many firmware developers on these clone factories staff.
These factories are just cranking out the "receiver du jour" to exploit the market then move on to the next device to copy......
Want to help make a change? Research and only support the companies that invest in RD and offer authorized OEM products. If you are unsure, check directly with a company and find an authorized distributor or reseller in your region. Time to send a message to clone and "out-the-back-door" rogue manufacturers.
Just something to think about next time a product is available cheap on eBay and offering direct shipment from China or Hong Kong..... :rant:

Well, Brian, we have been WAITING for a receiver for YEARS now from one of our A+ Gold Sponsors...but we haven't GOTTEN one! So we have to use what's on the market at the time we are in need/want of a receiver. If all I have is a hacker box, that's what I'll USE. I am NOT concerned if some jackleg might use it to steal DISH, I don't care, I am not doing it, so why SHOULD I care! I want a box that works for the most part, and is fairly cheap. Openbox/Solomend/Sathawk is a STEAL for the price offered, and Azbox is good value too, because NOBODY is making the box we really WANT!
Please don't slam us for using what's AVAILABLE. Promises cant tune in my Indycar feeds.
Promises cant tune in my Indycar feeds.
...And neither can any receivers from the sponsors.
Our sponsors have excellent deals, on parts & pieces, like Dishes, LNBFs and switches, and I have purchased these type things from them. Their RECEIVER selection on the other hand, all MPEG2-SD, and therefore I'm not interested. The next box I buy, will be able to tune in any legal thing up there, -I'm leaning toward the AzBox, but If SatelliteAv comes up with something similar in this new receiver it will warrant my consideration.
I thought I would come here and find lots of complaints about the update to the dish anywhere mobile app, but am not seeing any. It used to look just like the desktop webpage. Now you can no longer filter by sports channels or movie channels. Plus that they made it look like a big button telephone and you see fewer channels in the screen which requires more scrolling. Yes I realize you can look at sports then select which sport you want to look at, I just liked being able to see all sporting events in the guide with all other channels being filtered out. Am I alone in the wilderness on this?

Browns lose a close one with... The Jets. That is a classic Browns loss (granted, any loss is a classic one it seems). 49'ers, Vikings, and Chiefs remain undefeated. The AFC north have a three way tie at 3-2 for second place.
A big win for the Patriots, and they are now 3-2.

I had quit watching this show years ago because I ended up more annoyed than entertained. Well......I'm STILL more annoyed than entertained. I DO find it interesting to see how things work behind the scenes at many businesses. What annoys me is how utterly out of touch CEOs are with the companies they run. At the end of almost every episode the head of the company is amazed at how hard the employees have to work and many times have to work around impossible guidelines set forth from headquarters.
I found this one interesting because the new CEO had big plans for this company, Muscle Maker Grill, and it looked like the stores were all pretty busy. Recent history hasn't been good to this company however. I bet the covid lockdowns were the real killer.

Cutting Edge
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....

For quite a while now, people with a VIP211k have been losing their recordings on their activated external HDDs... even when there's nothing physically wrong with HDD. I believe this is an intentional and underhanded tactic that Dish is pulling in an attempt to force users away from the VIP211k.
They are obviously regretting that they ever let users have a "non-dvr" dvr in the first place. You would think they would be happy charging you a $40 one time fee... and then be happy letting the customer be the one responsible for HDD failures.
Dish clearly hates the 211k bitter-clingers. This recording deletion problem is intentional (IMO), and I think it is just one more tool that they are using. Hopper and a 2-year agreement... that's what they want you to have. Think about that... a 2-year agreement... with a company $30 Billion in debt (that's with a B). What happens when all that debt causes them to drop the channel that may have been your whole reason for having Dish in the first place? Guess who's stuck with a service that no longer suits their needs... for the remainder of the 2-year agreement.
On top of that, they don't want you to install it yourself. I purchased and installed all my equipment myself. That used to be common. Now, they lie to me and tell me that my dish must be updated to use a Hopper. Funny thing is... they don't even know what dish I have because they didn't install it, and I didn't tell them. If you ask what type of dish/LNBs the hopper needs... good luck getting an answer. All they know is that whatever you have needs to be upgraded by an installer.
It is quite apparent to me that they care much more about staying in their box, than they do working with the customer. That's too bad, because it hasn't always been that way. It's like they are totally unaware of the current business environment that they are trying to compete in.
I have been a customer since 2010. I will be cancelling my service before the next period. Yeah, I know, my $1,200 a year won't make a difference to them. It just seems like they have forgotten who needs who, especially when you consider the competition in today's streaming world. But hey, they will have succeed in forcing me off the 211k.

For some reason, the satelliteguys.us site is loading a lot slower than usual on both Chrome on my Asus laptop and Safari on my iPhone.
I'm also seeing longer appearances of the blue bar at the top and the "3 blue bars" loading symbol.
Is anyone else also having the same problem? Thanks in advance.

Tony as the director.
Would you rather have LaRoche ???Tony as the director.
No. Bring in someone new.
Tony is not serious enough for me. Parker is too close to the team and Tim is too young to take over IMO.
