This was on a Wally with the new U807 software, and Application Software version AN405b. After seeing the pop-up this morning and taking that picture, I have not been able to find a way back to the new version of the Gamefinder app since then. Perhaps this was some kind of glitch, or a premature launch of something that is not quite ready for the public yet.
From what I read from the paragraph on the app before you hit the launch button it said they something about launching it in a couple of weeks. I'm still on the same game finder that I've had for awhile.
Thank you for letting us know about this, crodrules. We will submit feedback to our back office regarding this ad.So this morning I got a pop-up in Gamefinder saying that there is a new version of Gamefinder, and asking if I wanted to launch it. After selecting "Launch" I noticed that the new version of Gamefinder makes this false ad even more annoying, putting it right in the middle of the listings of the games, and prominently displaying at the top of the banner "Multi-Sport Pack: Over 35 channels of your favorite sports networks."

Come on, Dish! Either actually start delivering more than 35 channels in Multi-Sport Pack, or get this ad fixed!
The updated version of Gamefinder has apparently finally been rolled out to the public, since this is now the only version of Gamefinder that I have on my Wally with software version U808 and Application Software version AN413. This exact same annoying Multi-Sport ad is still there, and it still says "Over 35 channels..."So this morning I got a pop-up in Gamefinder saying that there is a new version of Gamefinder, and asking if I wanted to launch it.

Those are not full-time channels, though (at least, not the satellite-delivered alternate channels) and Dish hardly ever uses them for anything. You might as well count all of the Sports Alt channels at the end of the RSN range, too, even though those are just part-time, game-only channels, with no guarantee of which channel number will be used for your team's game on any given day, if your team is still being carried by Dish at all.
On further inspection, ESPN Goal Line and ESPN Bases Loaded are not full-time channels, either, and they share the same channel number, yet are listed separately. So, saying "over 20 channels" would be a lot more accurate than trying to give an exact number, especially a number in the upper 30's.
Well at least it's not Tigers vs. Tigers.I don't like it. I saw it this morning when I wanted to know what was going on tonight. Too much graphics and info. All I want to know is who's playing and what time.
And I still wouldn't bet on the Tigers to win that one.
What's also misleading is that 6 of those channels (NFLN, BTN, P12N, LHN, SECN & FS2) are already included in AT120+, which is the minimum package required to get the Multi-Sport Pack. So, you're really only getting 17 channels.
I thought of that argument about Multi-Sport as well. However, the channels you listed are not included in Dish Latino Max, which is the minimum Spanish-language package to qualify for Multi-Sport. So, those subscribers do gain those channels by adding Multi-Sport. Also, if the minimum threshold for adding Multi-Sport ever gets lowered to make it available to those of us with smaller packages, then we would also gain those channels by adding Multi-Sport, even though the vast majority of Multi-Sport subscribers would still already have those channels in their basic package.
With the new Application Software version AN421, the Gamefinder app no longer has the misleading Multi-Sport ad!
At least I'm a Trojan and not a Cougar, Wildcat, or Bulldog. I can't think of another D1 team with the name Trojan. Also safe bets... Sooners, Crimson Tide, and those teams that shall not be name from South Bend and the Westside of LA.
I'm an old, OLD school Georgia Bulldog. We still insist on calling Mississippi State "The Maroons".
Which would make their basketball team (the ones actually playing in the game anyway) The Maroon 5.
