    Missing Channels

    ADVERTS
    I appear to be missing SD channels of certain stations and some locals as well. Example TBS only showing up in HD, but spike showing up in both. I am missing about 2 local channels as well. Any ideas? I tried a reboot and check switch and they are still this way. Any help would be appreciated...

    Have no idea where you are from so no idea what you are missing. Could be many things but you need to supply much more info.

    Boy, I hate having those HD channels. They're so annoying!

    Are you sure you didn't switch to a favorites list instead of All Sub?

    Channel locks set for SD versions of some channels?

    I had something similar with my 622 when we unsubscribed from HBO. When we downgraded, HBO channels went gone... completely gone... Not even in the channel lock list to select or deselect... It goes from ch 299 to (I think) 309 (or whatever the next non-HBO channel is)... They don't appear in the 9000 range either.

    Same problem here. If there is an HD version of a local channel it only shows up in Hd. Before both would show up both SD and HD. It has nothing to do with favorites I have looked at sub, and all, and nothing changes they both show the same guide info.

    Guide is set to all sub, not complaining about Hd only showing, just found it odd. I live in IL, Chicago market. Only 722 is doing this... No locks, no faves.
