Beta Testers Wanted - Sling Media Wants YOU!

[Bobby]

I'm gonna guess that it has to be a Sling enabled receiver. The testing is, undoubtedly, involved with your Dish receive, not a stand alone box....

 

[dwarren2]

Has anyone heard anything more?

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

Yes I just did.

And was asked to unstick this thread since they got enough applications...

Whats happening now is they have selected the testers, but now the testers need to be signed off on by Echostar, so everything has been set to Echostar for their approval. They are just waiting for this stuff to be signed off by Echostar and then things will begin.

 

[dwarren2]

Thanks

 

[D. Manley]

Here's hoping they can finally isolate and correct the issue some of us have with missing channels in the DA app.

 

[btyko]

Have they notified the testers who have been selected?

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

Have they notified the testers who have been selected?

No not yet not until the testers they have selected have been signed off by Echostar.

Pretty sure it has to be a Dish receiver with Sling or at least a Sling Adapter with the applicable receiver.

I barely received this message at 6:18 pm Mountain time that says;

Thank you for your interest in the Dish Anywhere beta program. Unfortunately, due to circumstances beyond our control we are unable to run this program right now. We apologize for taking so long and sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this might have caused.
-The Beta Team

Oh well, hopefully its not the same for everyone.

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

Yes unfortunately it appears to be for all.

They haven't said anything to me about this. Last thing I got from them was that they had enough responses to unstick the thread.

Imagine my surprise. <droll>

Beta testing was deemed unnecessary as most of their updates are bug-free to begin with.





(It was tough typing that out while laughing...)

 

[TheKrell]

Yup; I got the same message. I wonder what's going on.

 

[Chris Leer]

i would like to become one.

 

[bb83]

I got the same email yesterday also.

 

[Teehar]

What a joke.

Hi Scott. I'm new to this forum. One of the customer DISH service reps (on Facebook) sent me here.

What I'd like to know is, are there ever a call for folks to beta testers of the programs or updates before their pushed / sent? Or anything like that??

Do I keep an eye on this forum for things like that?

Thanks

You want to beta test anything then you need to just keep an eye on this site. Dish doesn't do a lot of it but when they do they occasionally use Scott to find people like us to do it. I have been a beta tester before and know several other members on here have done it.

You might as well just pull up a seat here and get settled in. You can learn a lot of satellite info here. Welcome to the forum!
