Dish Network: How to stop "Press select for live scores" message

If you watch sports on Dish Network, you may have seen the message "Press select for live scores" pop up repeatedly on your screen. To turn this feature off, do this:

  • Press Menu on your remote.
  • Choose System Setup, then Installation, then TV Enhancements.
  • Lastly, choose "disable" under "Enable/Disable TV Enhancements."

  6. the genius who came up with that should be fire and then shot. the feature never would actually show live scoers -- or any scores that i ever saw. when you were sucker enough to try it, you immediately lost any time you had queued. and it would pop up when there were no live scores like at 7am.

  9. Didn't work for me at all. Pressed the disable as you entered. Then went back since that didn't work and pressed the disable on the other option forgot what that one was. Anyway I gave it a try???
