You have to contact DISH and pay a monthly fee to recieve blockbuster movie pass . You don't need any special adapter to watch on your TV. Contact DISH.

Well on my brand of TiVo , sling box is not an option when you have to choose the cable box brand. However, why not chech TiVo on line and see if their is a code you can enter under advanced setup.

No problem. I upgraded my dish net receiver to one of the newer dvr receivers and keep the old original dish reciever which I put in my motorhome and I use the winegard GM 1518 for the motor home. Everything works great and is easy to use. You will have to pay net about $7 a month to use the 2nd reciever in the motorhome. When you move about in the motorhome to different geographic locations you will need to call DISH NETWORK and advise them of your new location (address and zip code) to get local stations there--this is a free service and takes just of few minutes.

The only thing I am aware of that you can get for this is another remote but not from Dish. You have to search to find a compatible remote if the one that comes with unit fails. The unit works as advertised.

I don't have dish, so I am not sure if it will work. I do have a universal remote that has been programmed to work on 4 functions through my amp. I use it to watch, blueray, cable, Apple TV or listen to radio or iPod. That would be your best choice for configuring both TV and dish.

I've been using Sling boxes for the last three years. I also have the Dish VIP 722 and it is basically an automated process to set it up. Once every thing is hooked up, use component connections if available, you will run the software setup on your computer, answer a few questions and it will be ready to go. It will also initially update the firmware on the box. Since it is hooked up to the 722 it has no impact on the TV's picture. I have never had a problem in three years. I'm in the military and have watched shows on my 722 from all over the world. Hope this helps.

I purchased the item to enable the use of my "on demand" feature from my Dish Network box: which has worked fine. Sorry I can't help.

My sister has it hooked up with her cable and it works great. I have Dish network and cannot get it to operate with any of my sets. I can get it to operate the TV's but not control their box, which is of no use to me.

I use Slingbox expressly for this purpose -- to watch my home U-Verse service at the cottage.I recently upgraded the speed on our home network to get greater upload speed, but at the cottage I have DSL which sometimes gets to 8 MB speed (but usually closer to 3-4 MB).I use my laptop to run Slingplayer, and connect via HDMI cable to my 19-inch LCD. The quality is pretty stunning. Very close to HD quality. Slingbox/Slingplayer does a nice job of optimizing the signal and speed, and gives me exactly what I want, without having the expense of Dish/DirecTV service.

Not exactly sure of what you're asking. This device will stream the Dish Satellite channels that you already subscribe to to an internet-equipped device. You need a satellite subscription and high-speed internet in your home to be able to stream the channels to wherever you are remotely.

Any dish receiver will work as long as it does not require a broadband connection. If you cant get the receiver GM5000 to work. you maybe forgetting a step like I did. Start from scratch and follow the manual. What I don't like is having to spend an hour on the phone every time we move.

This is a satellite receiver and you will have to have an active account with Dish Network

Slingbox not required. It works with Apple devices using the free app. And it now supports streaming away from home. Wifi is recommended to avoid high data usage. Shows can be downloaded for offline viewing as well.

This should work but I am not sure if you can access this function without the DISH subscription as you would have to first scan in the OTA channels. Good luck!!
