We are all hopping and wishing for either something new, to be change or returned. And most feel like they go unheard. Maybe just maybe they will use this too inspire the next update or new equipment.
The Mic is dead until you push the Mic button. It's not like a Google device, listening for you to say Hey GoogleTo be honest I'm ok with the hardware I've got, with one big exception: I would love to see a return to a well thought out sensible remote control (54.x) with NO side buttons. And while they're at it, give me a hardware switch to disable the mic, nice tiny slide switch on the remote, maybe under the battery cover. Right now I'm using a model 40 but who knows how long they'll be available.
I prefer it this way. Can't tell you how many times a commercial or conversation kicked off Alexa into some long storyThe Mic is dead until you push the Mic button. It's not like a Google device, listening for you to say Hey Google
They certainly rushed it!My only wish is that they would make the equipment they provided me work as advertised. Why wish for something new when the crap they have is so buggy and unreliable. New features or nice but make the ones I have work first. No where in their advertisements or promotions before I signed up did I see a disclaimer telling me I would have to reboot their equipment pretty much daily in order to use the service I am paying top dollar for. Oh by the way, I am expected to pay monthly equipment fees for the crap experience.
I had the 811, kept having the check switch issues, drove my wife crazy, she said that was it, went back to DirecTV because of that many years ago., when DirecTV had better Hardware.That's DISH way. They always release it to the market and then we struggle through all the software updates till they fix it . Then once they fix it they stop with the software updates and then retire the receiver. I can remember the 921 pvr. That receiver was cursed. I had to put it on a surge protector that I flipped the switch to reboot because it took two reboots to get through the day. One in the morning and then one before prime time shows came on ,so you would get your shows recorded. The 811 was another cursed receiver and it was just an hd receiver that didn't have dvr features. The hopper 3 has been the best receiver I have seen them come out with, but there is a high dvr fee attached to it.
Or you can call the Loyalty Department....My Wish List is a little late I know that. What I would wish for, is to have the same Luxuries as a New Customer, even though, I am an established long term Customer of Dish. I can dream, right???
I agree auto hop was a great idea until advertising found out. It's a complete failure! Who is going to wait 7 days to skip commercials. I only watch recorded never live and have started streaming a lot more. Better picture no commercials BUT still have to wait until the next day. My grandfather had a TV that auto muted the commercials in the early 80s I am a long way off from cutting the cord, but times have changed fast.i would like to see auto hop work right away and on every channel!!!
It might be a tad impractical to get it on every channel.i would like to see auto hop work right away and on every channel!!!
