Well, I still have H711 on my Hopper 3, but some reported receiving H712. Please feel free to continue discussing the IR remote issues with your Hopper 3 and whatever issues you are having with H712.

Nothing has changed for me. I still have to hold down or push a button several times to get my Harmony 665 remote to work with the H3.

Same for me. I have purchased three DIRECTV Gemini Osprey wired streaming devices and the third and final device is scheduled for delivery on Saturday.

At that point I will activate all three devices with DIRECTV Streaming and then cancel my Dish Satellite service. It is a bittersweet moment for me as an 8.5 year customer of Dish, but this IR issue has been going on for 7 weeks now and not even a hint of a resolution from Dish.

Good luck and I hope that Dish eventually sorts this firmware bug out and fixes it for loyal customers who are patient enough to remain a customer.

Same here. I have to tap View every 15-20 minutes to keep the IR receiver side "awake". If I forget, then after an hour of no IR blasting, I have to tap View anywhere from 5 - 45 times to "wake it up" again.

It's past annoying now and really needs to be fixed. This was never an issue prior to the H711 firmware update...

I've been a Dish sub for 29 years. That degree of loyalty ought to be worth a tiny bug fix.

I'd like to see the actual Hopper remote 54 start working properly again. After the 711 update, it periodically puts the Hopper into suspension by pressing a variety of buttons not intended for that purpose. There's no pattern to it, but sometimes hitting the skip/ff button does it, or pause, or others. Also, it goes to live TV from a recording sometimes. You can return to whatever you were watching by hitting any button to get out of suspension and then sometimes you have to hit recall to return to a recording.

It's just doing crazy stuff on it's own. I'm not the only one here who has reported this.

The 712 update didn't improve on this at all.

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....

Finally! Some big movement in California diesel pricing (and no, there is no such beastie as a diesel "winter formula").

Crude (combined pricing) is around $90/barrel now, so prices should have, at least, fallen in step with the crude futures.

California has a ~93¢ per gallon consumer tax rate on automotive diesel, along with significantly higher refinement standards.

The fact that consumers can only buy some new full-sized truck models and a couple of vans with diesel power makes the fuel an odd duck in refinery priorities.
