Just got a 722k, love it. Just hooked it up to my Sony 820 receiver and programmed the remote for it. Awesome. I see that there is a way to hide and/or block adult content. However, not all adult content is on adult channels, Cinemax plays a lot of adult-type content, etc. But there...

OnDemand? Sorry Pepper, but just one more thought on CES... I just got a OnDemand screen added to my 522 in the last few days of software upgrades...mostly blank screens, but....interesting....Comcast has OnDemand already... -John

The "13:15 always left on the timer" issue seems to be fixed with the version that I have that added the OnDemand screen when the DVR button is pushed. I had seen that issue a few weeks ago, and it seems to have disappeared in the last few releases (the buggy one that added the FF issue and...

Not sure I'd call it "crap" either - you're experiencing a minor issue with the FF feature - annoying, you bet, but it doesn't make it "crap". -John

522 - Latest w DishOn Demand - bug fixes Saw no mention of the 522 software version that I have that has the Dish OnDemand screen when you press the DVR button once (press again to go to My Recordings). Not sure my version, will check tonight after I come back from the Nuggets game at Pepsi...

I did notice, but maybe this was already there pre L233, that the Dolby Digital settings in the setup menus are greyed for TV2 and active for TV1 - which makes total sense. Just thought I'd mention it if someone searched later and was confused as to why their DD setup was greyed out when they...

I have software version L233(GAED-N) on my 522, with bootstrap version 1414GAED, dual mode, avg temp is 113 F. I haven't experienced any of the aforementioned sync issues or audio pops.

Should not have 3 cables running outside<->inside. Diplexers, etc take care of this. I have the 522, they passed all signals through 1 RG6 cable to the living room (where the 522 is located). I have two dishes (which is required for local channel 12 here in Denver). The 2 dishes merge into 2...

I've seen where a hard drive diag pops up and events are not recorded since it was interrupted. This is WAD - working as designed - I think. I've seen where a show is recorded with the proper name, but the content is different. Example, BYUTV shows the Router Work Shop that I normally...

Just FYI for other readers and searchers... Denver's KRMA PBS channel 12 requires a second dish. This is the only way to get more than normal showings of New Yankee Workshop, and the only way to get the Spirit of Colorado series that showcases Colorado's outdoors activities like XGames...

kluken, I'd just like to say, I use my 522 DVR quite extensively, auto recording during the day, and burning shows to DVD every night on one turner while watching live tv on the other tuner. I have yet to see any freeze of my 522 or the audio/video sync issues. Reading these forums you may...

Oooooo, that sounds like it won't work. I don't see how it sensing current changes in the battery compartment can be translated into RF pulses, does it take into consideration that you have normal LEDs on the remote that would generate a current drop? Also, the link provided does not work.

Search these forums for Sony Receiver and you should find your answer is quite possibly yes. I have a STR-DE897 receiver. The 522 remote will control it's volume up,down,mute and power. But, there's a trick which I posted in another thread. You need to move the Sony receiver to AV1 IR mode...

I could swear that this worked perfectly before, and now with the latest software, it's been "changed" and giving me conflicts. I'm in dual-mode. I already have a timer on Tuner 2 for 3pm-3:30pm for SHOW1. There's another show I want to record 3pm-4pm, SHOW2. I use either the TV1 remote OR...

This works with the Sony STR-DE897 receiver as well. Pages 47 and 57 in the sony manual tell how to switch the sony remote and the sony receiver into AV1 mode. It says AV2 is factory default. Once I did this, I was able to use the scan feature of the Dish 522 remote for TV1 (the IR one) and...
