JerryDowning rstark18 kwindrem Thanks for the help!

rstark18 How did everything work out? Does the new box run the update better? I'm in the same boat. We've been Dish customers for years, had the original Hopper for a long time and been very happy with it. We get this forced UI update and the darn thing is slow as molasses if it even works. It...

I contacted Dish via chat and was told to send in my receipt after I purchased the season and they would give me a credit. Kind of a bummer I was hoping for the $5/mo x12 credit that was mentioned above.

I know I would pay for it as a premium or even buy the games as PPV.

I have just about given up hope that we will have ESPNU in HD for football this year. I'm guessing we will not see ESPN3d for a very long time. At least my daughter does not seem to mind watching the kids shows in SD. I would love to hear an update though.

Do you think there is any chance we will see any 3d channels (not VOD) on dish this year? I have a 722 but would upgrade if there was 3d content available.

Thanks for the link on the glasses! I am definitely interested in the panasonic player. I'll have to check it out. Thanks for the heads up on it. I have about a dozen 3d movies and a handful of ps3 games but don't have avatar. Stinks that the conversion is not that impressive.

Do the passive glasses work as well as the active glasses? I was also an early adopter for hd. I keep trying to remind myself to be patient with the content. It was just as frustrating then waiting to see when more would become available. There was a time when hearing about Voom got me just as...

I got a great deal on a 60" Mitsubishi and got the 3d kit for free. I did not think my family would use the 3d much at all. After my 4 year old saw her first cartoon on it and jumped all around the living room trying to touch and catch what ever appeared to be flying out of the tv we have all...

I am also a long time dish subscriber. I don't want to switch, but I don't want to go through football season this fall and miss any 3d broadcasts. Not having espnu in hd is bad enough. If dish does not at least spell out their 3d plans before the season starts I'll be making the switch.

My wife just tried to watch glee on our 722. It shows up as 32 different episodes. Other shows have recorded perfectly tonight. Anyone else have this problem?:eek:

Both things that were lost were movies from cinemax. This is probably crazy. But I was wondering if there was some kind of 1 time viewing copy protection on some movies?

Losing shows :( In the last couple of weeks I have been losing movies off my external drive after watching them. I would probably have deleted them anyway. However I am getting concerned about the other shows on the drive. Has anyone experienced this? Is this what is happening to long_time_DNC...

Thanks articos! I hope the tech brings another box with him.

Arrghh... My HDMI went out on my 622 after a year. My first replacement would not give me a picture on TV2. It would show the guide and the menus but no video. My second replacement reboots every 30 - 45 min. That chopped up my recordings this weekend (Messed up Lonesome Dove and the Sarah...
