Logos

[Skee7ix]

They are not even updating the logos now?
It is something that make the 922 interfase look better.
And now all the new channels are without logo or with a wrong one. For example the new religious channel Prayer has an ABC Family logo, Universal Sports has a Sirius logo and the other new channels didn't have a logo at all.
Don't know if it is my 922 or everyone.
Because I remember 2 weeks ago when Dish changed the logo, the Dish logos in the guide changed to the new red one and some other logos of other channels also changed, the next day they were the same as always, how they are now...

I like to think it takes a awhile for Logos to appear,remember when you first got the 922?.

That said it would not surprise me if the channel logos become jumbled up because this is the same guide the Hopper uses and it's in beta testing.

So you can complain or give DISH a break and be happy with what you do have? I am.

I noticed the same thing and sent a message to MattG maybe you should do the same

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

Yes I also noticed that RuralTV has no logo as well.

"So you can complain or give DISH a break and be happy with what you do have? I am."

I have seen this kind of comment quite often, and while I appreciate those who are very positive, I would like to remind them that they are sending hundreds of dollars per year (or more than $1000/yr) to a mutli-billion dollar company that actually needs to deliver with excellence, because it is in the "fight of its life" with its arch-rival, DirecTV. Frankly, it is not OK for Dish to miss on things like this. It is just not acceptable to always be "behind the curve" on basic GUI (Graphical User Interface) details.

Now, I do give DISH that they are the provider that chooses to be low-cost / high-volume, and they actually get a fair amount of kudos for what they *do* deliver in that scenario, which, I'm sure, is crushing. But I am not sure that it *helps* to make Dish think they are delivering on things that they fail on. It is like parents who over-praise, even for kids who fail to even try. They make it worse, by offering a false sense of achievement.

I, for one, will say I appreciate the Dish value-pricing, and the fact they deliver more high-quality HD channels than their competitor - those things are outstanding. But I think they can and should do better on the GUI, and need to become more customer-focused through better engineering and refined attention to detail. They need to be more open to user input, and most definitely need to communicate what they are doing, or have done, on their software revisions. I say, "Thank you, Dish, but please spend some of those $M of profit on some additional engineers who open up avenues to customer input and testing."

Well since it's been a few days now my thoughts on this issue is:

Come On DISH Fix The Logos!.:rant:

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

What is strange is the other day I setup a new unit and had it plugged in and in the stream for a few hours before we got to call and activate it. Before we activated it I noticed that all the logos were correct, even Rural TV had a logo... yet after activating the unit the unit no displays the wrong logos on the screen. Almost like there are two different versions of the logos floating around in the stream.

I think there's more than that if you look in "Counters" It says which Logo Version their using on your 922.

I think there's plenty of room for both satcos to coexist. And we'll be better off if both do.

Noticed new Logos when I turned on my 922,where they don't have the Logo yet is a big red DISH.Thanks DISH.

 

[werdztif85]

I turned on my 922 this morning and all the logos are updated and current! Let's see how long this will last

 

[356B]

I guess I don't get it, some are sort of over the top, LMN for-instance and the major networks NBC, CBS etc. I need my glasses to see them.....? The change is OK but I wonder about the timing, with Hopper coming and all...?

 

[werdztif85]

I had some of them last night then this morning they all updated

 

[Skee7ix]

The local channels are very small

 

[Skee7ix]

What happened to the logos today?
Its like they restore the logos to a previous point in time, because all the logos are changed, Destination America has the logo of Planet Green again (it already has the Destination America logo), and all the new channels that were added or modified lately didn't have logos at all, and they have before.

[356B]

MY Hopper noticed the change in logos also......I wonder if that freeze late last night had anything to do with this oddity?

 

[3HaloODST]

Weird. Destination America has the Planet Green logo on one of my Hoppers as well.

 

[gatekeeper]

Weird. Destination America has the Planet Green logo on one of my Hoppers as well.

Yea noticed BLOCKBUSTER has changed to just a DISH red logo. Ch 102 and 349 .

 

[3HaloODST]

194, 102, 349, 232 now have the appropriate logos here (at least on 1 Hopper, haven't checked the others.)

 

[werdztif85]

I've noticed that as well. There is some that are still not updated like lifetime (I know, I know) and tv land
