Possible to show only Movies on H3?

[bphillips09]

Hi everyone! First-time Dish subscriber here - switched from having Cox cable for the last 15+ years and extremely happy so far with Dish. There is one thing though that we used all the time with Cox that I can't seem to figure out how to replicate on a Hopper3.

Is it possible to only show Movies "On Now"? i.e. display a list of movies currently airing? I see it's possible to do on DishAnywhere.com, just by selecting "Movies" it will only show channels with movies - but the "Movies" tab on the H3 only shows on-demand movies. (see pic)

I'm looking for similar functionality to clicking the "Movies" button on DishAnywhere does.

Thanks for any insight!

Was about to say that I've never heard of Dish having that available on there receivers but what do you know, I actually learned something today. On the main menu (Home button x 1) you can go down to Trending Now, then select See More to the left. Once you're in there you should have a section called Movies, then you can select See All to the left again to see everything that is on.

Ah nice! I can confirm that it does work on my Hopper 3. However, the "Trending Now" section doesn't seem to show up on my Joeys but that's fine.

Thanks!
