PG messed up at times
Is anyone having the following problem with their 811 receiver?
PG showing incorrect programming on some channels
PG showing incorrect start and stop times of programming on some channels
I have noticed this over the last couple of days.

Strange stuff like that is SOP on this POS.
FYI:
-It's "couldn't care less", not "could care less".
-It's "would've", "should've", and "could've", not "would of", "should of", and "could of".
-It's "voila!", not "walla!" (That's right. You've been speaking French all this time.)
-The first word in each sentence should be capitalized.
-A period goes at the end of each sentence.
-Commas are also a good idea, on occasion.

Is it also SOP for the picture to seem dark on many channels? I'm using the DVI connection.

The guide can get messed up and a reboot fixes it (hold in the front panel power button for 10 seconds or so, then release). The 811 makes Windows 98 look reliable. Dish should add a "reboot" button to the 811 remote (or add 3 buttons, Ctrl-Alt-Delete LOL).

It is on mine. Darker than component, anyway. HBO-HD is probably the worst. Originally Posted by satellite_crazy_bob
