    Changes to Guide with L750

    ADVERTS 1
    I just got L750 on both my 722K's. I thought there must be something wrong with the guide as the default list is NOT "All channels" but "My Channels". Before L750 the guide would always come up with the last listing which you displayed. But, not anymore as even though I change it to "All Channels" the next time we bring up the guide it is back to "My Channels". Strange, though, that "My HD Channels" will stick but Not "All Channels". I looked and looked for a setting to change this so "All Channels" would come up all the time. Finally, I called and was told this is a defect with L750. Anyone heard of this, or was the CSR just giving me to brush-off?

    Personally, I like the fact it stays on My channels. I hate seeing channels I can only watch if I pay another $10.00 a month to upgrade.

    The thing that's funny about it is that we have NO channel lists set up, so the "My Channels" are the same channels as the "All Channels". But, the thing should still remain where you last set it to, whether It was one of your lists, All Channels, or HD only.

    Wow, never noticed that. My 722Ks with L750 exhibit the same behavior. If my Mom's 722K still have L690 by then, I'll check and see if it does the same. I always use "My Channels" anyway.

    It shouldn't be. "My Channels" should be what used to be named "All Sub", unless the 722k is doing it differently than the 622 for no apparent reason.

    As long as I have had a DishNetwork receiver where you could set your own channel list, (13 years now) the default list which listed every channel was labled as
    "All Channels". And that is still true, BUT, it does not stay the way you set it. Now it always goes back to "My channels", even though you have no channel list. So the problem is it doesn't remember where you set it. For the life of me I cannot under why they would tinker with this which was never a problem, in the face of all the other problems. Unless it was another unintended bug. It seems every time Dish releases new software, that they fix one problem and create at least new one. Then with the next release they fix that problem only to create a new one, and so it goes on and on and on and on....... Must be the same crew which cannot get Dish Online working properly. At some point I will have to stop believing they will ever get there software working as intended! That time is near.

    So far my 722k/wMT2 has rebooted twice by itself under L750(with L690 it did not have this problem).My remote quits working,then it reboots.

    Quick question. Other then not liking change. Why is not seeing channels you don't get a bad thing. Saves time, gets rid of clutter on the guide, lets you select what you CAN view. It is possible that after 13 years they got it right. JMO

    I think people do NOT like change, even when it stream lines things and clears clutter from the guide.
