HBO On Demand with DISH!

Introducing HBO OD from DISH! 

Now all of you DISH customers that subscribe to HBO and Cinemax are going to be able to enjoy INSTANT access to hit movies, HBO original series and so much more through your DVR!

You will get instant access to virtually every episode of every season of the best HBO shows - most of which are available in high definition - including “Luck®,” “Game of Thrones®,” “Boardwalk Empire®,” “True Blood®,” “Deadwood®,” or “The Sopranos®,” as well as popular Hollywood hit movies, documentaries, stand-up comedies, sporting events, and independent films.

In addition, a new feature called DISH Unplugged will make hundreds of HBO movies and TV shows available via satellite to the DISH DVR. Customers who subscribe to HBO will have instant access to HBO programming through their receiver in the highest video quality and with no buffering. These programs will be refreshed every day by satellite, providing HBO customers the most current selection of HBO programming. DISH Unplugged will be first available as a feature of the recently announced Hopper, a whole-home HD DVR entertainment system to launch in the first quarter of 2012.

“DISH is thrilled to be working with HBO to bring this broad collection of highly acclaimed programs to our customers for instant access at home,” said Dave Shull, senior vice president of Programming, DISH. “Whether our customers are online or off the grid, we offer a solution to give them convenient access to the most popular programming.”

“We are pleased to remain at the forefront of innovative delivery methods for providing our award-winning original series and movie selections to our devoted viewers,” said Shelley Brindle, executive vice president, Domestic Network Distribution and Marketing, HBO.  DISH customers can also watch HBO’s vast content through the recently updated DISH Remote Access app on Apple iPads, and online at www.dishonline.com, HBOGO.com or MAXGO.com.

DISH DVRs capable of accessing HBO and Cinemax content online include the ViP 612, ViP 622, ViP 722, ViP 722k and Hopper receivers connected to high-speed Internet service.

If you don't have one of these DVRs, don't worry...

DISH Network 129 Satellite is having issues...here is the current fix!

**HELP WITH DISH NETWORK SATELLITE OUTAGE**

Many people are currently experiencing issues with DISH Network's 129 satellite being out.  While I cannot tell you what the problem is or when it will be fixed as I do not know, I can off you some assistance in getting your satellite system back up and running again.  Please follow the directions below for help. 

Step 1: Hit "Menu" button
Step 2: Hit the number "6"
Step 3: Hit the number "1"
Step 4: Hit the number "1" again
Step 5: Go to "Check Switch"
Step 6: Hit "Select"
Step 7: Go to "Test"
Step 8: Hit "Select"
Step 9: Allow your system to run a check switch (3-4 minutes)
Step 10: You will get an error message that says "You have found fewer satellites"--THIS is OK!
Step 11: Highlight "Save" and hit "Select" (a pop-up will ask you if you are sure, make sure you save it)
Step 12: You will see the results screen, hit "Done"
Step 13: You will now see the "System Strength" screen, let it sit here for a minute until you see a pop up screen show up and go off.
Step 14: A green bar will show on the bottom of your screen...WAIT until it says "Locked"
Step 15: Hit the "Cancel" button until you are completely out of that screen...this will take about 3-4 minutes
Step 16: Then it will go to a screen that says it is down...loading the guide information.
Step 17: Wait for the green bar to go all the way across...this will take 4-6 minutes.
Step 18: When it is done it will take you to channel 101.
Step 19: From there, you can start watching your television again.

The whole process should take approximately 15 minutes to complete.

**NOTE** When the 129 comes back on, you will need to repeat this whole process.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us. Thanks!
