U347 for H3

I just noticed I received U347 on my H3 at 2:03 am on 4/7/2017. Does anyone know what was updated ? I did see that the 4K channel 540 is no longer in the guide. But that could have change prior to U347 and I just missed it. I still get my 3 EHDs so am happy with that.

Sure would be nice if this one solves the non recording issues because deleting and setting up new ones just doesn't work in all cases.

Sadly, that one being guide-related, probably isn't going to be fixed by a software update.

My U347 came down yesterday and my guide page of my favorites is still frozen on the lowest eight channels. Still can't scroll above or below those eight channels, and I still can't direct input a channel and go to that channel in the guide. It just won't go. After talking with Dish for a LONG time today, we have my Favorites Guide page running normally, but that is only because I had to eliminate all of my collapsible channels like Regional Sports, Sirius music, Pac 12 channels, etc. Once those are gone, the individual guide works that I call My Favorites. Just for grins, we put all of those collapsible channels on a new Favorites Guide page, and you can't scroll up or down or direct input when the channel groupings are collapsed. Interestingly, if you open up all the channels on all the channel groups, i.e. expand everything, the scrolling up and down and direct channel entry work correctly. But, next time you turn off your H3, when you start it up again, all the channel groups have collapsed again. My contact had not seen any of this before, but was able to duplicate it on his H3 at work, so the issue is being written up. So it just goes on and on...

Did you try to unplug and replug in your receiver to do a power cord reboot? I do this after all software updates to clear out glitches and quirks of the new software.

While I agree with you, I received 347 this morning. Checking the schedule it looks like something has caused it to be fixed. All of my golf for this week and next are on the schedule! That wasn't the case yesterday. I can see how the guide has been changed to make sure the episode number is now in the description. That wasn't the case before and that's what I think caused all my problems over the last few months. Now, I will wait until tomorrow to see if it cancels the network feed at the last minute or not.

Edited to add that while it looks like the PGA Tout timers may have been fixed by adding episode numbers to each airing, that doesn't appear to be the case with the LPGA airings! No episode numbers and thus trying to set up a recurring recording still doesn't work. Had to go in and selec individual episodes for tomorrow and Friday/Saturday. Oh well. At least some progress, just not all of it fixed yet.

That's a lot of information to ingest. However, I don't have the Hopper Plus and my 54 remote is doing crazy things to the Hopper 3. Several times each evening when I press the skip forward button several times to advance through a commercial, it switches the receiver either onto live TV or into suspension. Other buttons will also cause this randomly, I haven't established any patterns I can describe. I use "recall" to go back to my recorded program in progress.

Needless to say, something in the newer Hopper 3 softwares has caused the remote functioning to ......................malfunction. Evidently, it applies to third party remotes as well as DISH's own remotes.

This is exactly the same issue I was having as I had the Hopper 3 and 54 remote without the Hopper Plus and the symptoms were virtually identical to yours.

We have had a corolary problem in this and the prior s/w. Using several different 40.0 remotes (yeah, we're old), when one pauses a live or recorded show it becomes a crap shoot whether it will step foreward the 30" as requested, jump to the end, or restart the episode. Tried the famous 60" reboot to no avail and have decided to live with it vs. a receiver swap risk.

I think there's a change to the "skip forward 30 seconds". With CBS that does not have auto-skip, if you stack up a bunch of 30 second forwards it seems to stop when the kangaroo signaling the end of the commercial break appears.

Also posted this in the 3rd party remote thread.

My Hopper 3 updated itself to H713 last week and the IR issue is worse now. On H711, I could be on an SD channel for several hours and the IR side of my H3 would still be responsive without my having to tap the View button on my Pronto Pro every 15 minutes. Now, if I stay even on an SD channel without tapping the View button at least once an hour, it becomes unresponsive to my Pronto Pro without tapping the View button at least 5-20 times, just like on the HD and 4K channels. So, H713 actually made the issue worse. :(

Problem with Amazon Prime Video

I've been having intermittent problems with Amazon Prime video programs loading using the H3 guide listing. I can get to the program I want to watch, but when I try to view it, it starts to load and then stalls. Eventually, a screen pops up saying "something went wrong, try again later". I've tried rebooting the hopper without success. Sometimes switching the HDMI input on my LG TV works, but not always. I don't have this problem on my phone or computer, so it is not a network or router issue.

I did a quick google search and found that this is a common problem associated with overloading or corruption of the data cache in the Amazon app and the solution is to clear the cache. Easy to do on a computer or phone, but I don't know how to do this on the H3. If anyone a solution or suggestion, I'd appreciate some help. Thanks.

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....

TVs are really getting big these days

Was raining yesterday so I went to Sams up in Dothan to stock up on some things. Haven't been there in quite a while. I was amazed at how large most of the TVs were. When I walked in they had a 100 in Vizio (I think it was Vizio) that was marked down to something like $1,200. The first rows of TVs were all in the 80 in + sizes. The next couple of rows had the "smaller" models....those 75 and under. I was amazed at how small the 75s looked when lined up with the larger screens.

Q-LED and Mini LED panels have improved the picture quality and the tv's are so thin and nearly without bezels now. I've thought about replacing the 75in 4k DV/HDR LED Sony in my living room with a newer 86in. That's as big as I can go without construction changes. I watch the 75in 4k DV/HDR Q-LED in my bedroom and the difference between the two is very noticeable. There's nothing wrong with the living room tv though and I don't now that I actually watch enough anymore to really justify it. I could move it out to the patio but the 65in Q-LED out there looks really good and I'd have to change the mount to accomdate a larger tv out there.

I'm at a limit for TV sizes at this time. My Father-in-Law crafted a custom entertainment center for our family room and we were restricted from going too big based on the side cabinets and central bridge fitting in the width of the room. It turns out to be where a 55" screen with bezels fits but no 65" bezel-less screen can fit. I think there was a brief period where 58" screens where a thing, but no more.

So, no huge screens for the Foxbat's…

Has anyone been to Wales?

I've pretty much done most things in Ireland and I'm thinking about the other side of the Irish sea. I'm thinking about traveling to Wales this summer. My second choice would be Scotland. I don't want anything to do with London except maybe landing in Heathrow and then escaping quickly.

Any tips or experiences to share?
