What? "Your smart card does not currently have authorization to view or purchase this program. Please wait or channel up or down." When I tune to 418 (HD) I hear the audio, but no video then the message pops up? Anyone else have this problem? I'm trying to watch the COL-STL game.
 
I am having the same problem on 418 Fox Midwest. Called and Dish and said that it would be fixed in 15 minutes. That was 45 minutes ago.
 
I'm talking to them right now. This CSR's an idiot, but at least I can understand him.:rolleyes:

He told me to wait for an hour or so. WTF!?!?

(04EP) Matthew L: Would you like the stations for those games?
Me I want to know why they are not in HD on Comcast Sports Net?
(04EP) Matthew L: The next two days games are not on Comcast SportsNet, as they will be broadcast on other stations.
Me: I know this. my questions is why are they not showing the HD feed on Comcast Sports net? And tomorrows game I cannot view in HD anyway because dish does not brodcast WGN in HD
(04EP) Matthew L: I don't have the information regarding why the HD feed is not available for today's game, I can only tell you that it is not available.
(04EP) Matthew L: I have tomorrow's game listed in HD on channel 5085
 
I am having the same issue. I called customer service and the lady read me the message she got from her bosses. It stated that she was to advise customer to tune to the SD channel of the game to continue watching the game. WTF? I know that! I want to know why the HD feed says its not authorized on my reciever. But, I guess its a known issue. I am sure it will be fixed SOON.
 
If I recall correctly, this happens when dish updates the encryption keys to combat hackers.
