After 3 years with Dish, just switched to Comcast (CA bay area). No dish access in my new apt. So I ordered 3 premiums HBO, Cinemax and Showtime. Turns out only one channel in each of these networks is in HD, the rest are all SD. This truly sucks after paying quite some money for the...

It looks IPL TV rights in North America are owned by Willow TV and Direct TV. Any idea if this will be carried and offered on Dish, hopefully in HD? Thanks much.

Most possibly will require a new 2 yr commitment even if they give you the equipment for almost free. any new install fees could be worked into signing up for a service plan that you need to keep for a minimum of 6 months.

I am able to stream simultaneously to my PC and Mac as I write this. So that works. The issue is with iPhone and iPad, where they are treated as remote 3G clients even when they are connected through the local WiFi. Not sure about the resolution technicalities but the recorded stuff looks...

I bought it for $100. I have had this for a couple of months now, and does a fairly good job quality wise. I use it mostly to 1. View TV on my Mac in the upstairs office where there is no TV. 2. Record HD movies/shows to my USB stick for viewing when I am on the road. I saw the...

...and the players for mobile devices are free.

Or a Vulkano for 100 bucks, that is both a DVR and a PVR. Easy to setup...works great. Unlike Sling, can stream to multiple local and 1 remote location.

Thanks for the clear explanation...helpful.

Dish on Demand... Can I do this with a 222K that has ethernet port as well. Where do access "Dish on Demand" - on the dish network website?

I chatted with a CSR and they said the package is $149 starting 2/19 and refused to add the package for $129 today. I looked at earlier forum posts and other Dish press releases on google and they all say it is $129 until 2/19, $149 after. Can anyone confirm if you were able to add for $129...

Have had it for 1.5 yrs. Works fine. Only issue is that seems to be the only dish receiver that does not have EHD capability. I miss having a DVR too. I wish I got one with it when I signed the contract year and a half ago. Now they say it will cost ~$200+ and a new contact to get me to...

Mary, Do you know if NDTV 24x7 will be added to the Hindi Mega line up shortly. If not, can you put in a request for it. It is the #1 premier news channel in India. Thanks.

Thanks to all that responded. 222K sucks. I understand that Slingbox's primary task is to stream over Network. However, I thought some of them had the DVR capability. I will now look for a wholly owned Dish DVR or a Hava/Vulkana as someone suggested. If I do get one of those DVR...

Hi, I have a VIP222K and almost a year left on my contract. The EHD option does not work for VIP222K. So, I am struck without DVR capabilities unless I spend another $150 and sign a new contract which I don't want to do. My question is- if I buy a Slingbox for cheap from a friend who...
