I wonder why a Dish rep doesn't let us know what the updates are about. Right here. I assume many who work for Dish follow threads here, know what the main concerns are. (The black screen with recordings!!).

Yes, it is enabled. If that's the case I probably waited little longer than usual before I moved them into Nature folder. I tried it a minute ago. It worked! I checked the recording date on it. April 6th. Today is 9th. If I am not mistaken I must wait 3 days before moving them. Thank you for...

I have Hopper3 and Joey2s. I don't know what is the latest update. If it is necessary I can check the devices later.

When I records episodes of a show I create folders and keep them in there. I find it easier. Well, something weird happened yesterday. I record Tom Hanks' the Americas from one of the networks (satellite not OTA). Until yesterday I was able to select and move them into a folder named Nature. I...

Speaking of newly offered streaming channels, I have 2 questions... As Boston says you must have an active subscription to download guide to see those channels and what they offer. 1- Are we able to select them in Guide and record them as we do with regular satellite and OTA channels? After...

Every Dish update causes confusion. Most of us have no idea what the improvements are. I would like to see a sticky thread (where people read but can't leave comments) by a Dish employee or moderator to make it simple. Show us new versions for different devices and what the new or fixed features...

Good morning. My internet search shows....... Channel 9 ABC is from Orlando, WFTV. Are these recordings from satellite or OTA? I realize my location, which is central KY does not matter to you. My network recordings from satellite are fine. Hopefully, some fellow Floridians who live close to...

Something weird happened last night. (I occasionally see this. Not often though.) I watched a recording, one of those FBI shows from a local network channels. When it was over, I stopped it with remote and selected the option to go back to DVR. Folders and recordings screen was on. But, all the...

Hey Hipkat; If this black screen issue was caused by some software update (That's my opinion. I did not have this in the past.) what can a technician do at subscriber's house? Does he somehow reset the system?

That is good news indeed. Do they expire or stay on Hopper until you delete them?

Well, my understanding from Jim's statement is it is acceptable if installer tells a customer what is available as service or gadgets. That wouldn't bother me at all. I would just decline it as Peter did. I wouldn't get annoyed though unless the installer tells me I must accept all the extras. I...

In order to request Joey4 are we required to have or update to Hopper+? Currently, I have hopper3.

Kinda confused here, which is not a good thing for an old geezer! I must ask..... If the same Joey2 starts acting and I swap 2 units as suggested..Still having the same issue with new location. I call Dish, explain. Do they require the same model which is Joey2 (very likely a refurbished unit)...

Waited wifey to finish watching her beloved show. went to kitchen. Joey automatically switched to live (the last channel viewed) tv. changed channels to be sure. it was good. Perhaps, we dodged the bullet. It happens again, I will swap two. Still bad, time to call for joey4. thanks for all the...

Today, something weird happened. the wifey yelling from kitchen she can not watch TV. I go up there, notice the 'signal lost' (can't remember exact words.) warning. 3 choices, streaming, DVR and learn more. I turn the Joey off and on. still the same. I go to basement tv (with another Joey2)...
