    OK, I can try that, I have a second MyBook 1TB. Will let you know after 'Nashville' records tonight. (Ewwww~~!) The things guys have to do & emasculate themselves... :P

    External Hard Drive Archive Bug Thread

    Yes. They all play fine. I archived 3 episodes before L795. So not sure if it is a software thing.

    External Hard Drive Archive Bug Thread

    CANNOT ARCHIVE 'GRACELAND' TO EHD - 722 locks every time. I've got a 722 using a 1TB Mybook EHD. So far I can archive any of my other shows to the MyBook, but every time I choose 'Graceland' whether in HD or SD it will start the archival process, then just as it is nearly done, both tuners...

    622 REBOOTS when selecting DVR Menu

    JimK2 - At home I have a big fan blowing on my 722 and had it on this one before moving it into the camper and had no cooling issues with the broadcom chips that get so hot inside. Zach - It has been REPLACED with another 622 and I was able to move all of my programs to an EHD.

    EHD Group similar programs. WHEN?

    After archiving several weekly shows to the EHD, I looked, and all of the shows are listed in single entries, so now my wife has to scroll through 2 seasons of Biggest Loser and America doesn't got Talent. IF/WHEN will there be 'GROUP' option on EHD's? OR am I missing something in the...

    622 REBOOTS when selecting DVR Menu

    @Zach - In single mode, the DVR reboots from either remote TV1 or TV2 after 10 seconds.

    622 REBOOTS when selecting DVR Menu

    Not a bad HD, I can access it with TV2. There is something inherent to TV1 accessing DVR content, similar to a corrupt directory, but only for TV1. TV2 has no problem viewing, archiving, or even scheduling recordings, whereas TV1 goes south and resets 10 seconds into pressing DVR, no matter...

    622 REBOOTS when selecting DVR Menu

    Have not tried [SINGLE MODE] yet. I will also attempt to save off what programming I have to an EHD that I bought last night. Now I have 2, 2TB Mybooks, one from my HOME-VIP722 and one for this DYING-VIP622. I was not sure if I plugged my HOME EHD into this 622 if it would reformat and lose all...

    622 REBOOTS when selecting DVR Menu

    This is aggravating as hell. Tonight I wanted to watch a recorded show on the DVR. I pressed DVR on TV1 remote, then 10 seconds later, the receiver freezes, then reboots. WTF?? I try it again, and again, but it freezes, then reboots each and every time. Here is the weird thing, this...

    shut off dish for winter

    I have used the PAUSE thing. It works well, now this year I will pause my home receiver and activate the one in the RV which is my personally owned box. Therefore I can use my EHD and take all my recorded movies with me wherever I happen to park for the winter. :) The only thing I do not know...

    Nightly Update

    I've changed and aborted my update time many times. If you are worried about missing a recording, change your update time or wait for a time of no activity so that you don't want to watch anything for about 5 minutes. Then go in to UPDATES and change the settings to the current time plus 2...

    Broadband problem VIP 722

    24+ hours without a 789 error using a 2nd router setup. This is *NOT* a fix for whatever DISH changed on/around Oct 1 when adding Movie Pass. But at least I know that it is something that changed in the 722 software. The bad part is that in 7 days I am moving to the RV and won't be able to...

    Broadband problem VIP 722

    The DMZ didn't work either and it should have if it was a port tcp/udp issue. I've plugged a secondary netgear wg364 into my SAGEMCOM F@st 1704 and so far it *IS* working. I don't know what the difference is between them. This is not a long term option, but a quick fix for hardware that hasn't...

    Broadband problem VIP 722

    I am trying to figure this out:(APPARENTLY ALONE because Dish hasn't helped one iota so far) I am thinking about setting the VIP722 as a DMZ device as a last resort. If I knew what ports Movie pass was using to communicate, I could port forward those to the 722 also, just like I did to get the...

    My Rentals EMPTY after update!

    I've spent the last few days trying to build my queue of movies in Dish Cinema/Platinum, fighting with the broadband connected/disconnected roulette(M-6-1-9-2) and had accumulated several movies in 'MY RENTALS', that is until a few hours ago. Now, after my nightly reboot, the damn thing is wiped...

    Broadband problem VIP 722

    It is set up for DHCP and port forwarding(for sling adapter). Now the Dish rep on FB is telling me to switch ethernet ports on the back of my modem/router. LOL

    Broadband problem VIP 722

    Last night I finally got L721. Now though this error 789 is more rampant than ever. It will ask me to connect again in as little as 43 minutes after doing a M-6-1-9-2. ( I did it at 4:05 and now at 4:48 it errors out again. ) C'mon Dish. Put the 'keep connection alive' part of the coding in...

    Broadband problem VIP 722

    I have this issue for the last week or so also. I finally told Dish Answers on FB. My 722 has L677. I am getting ready to go on vacation and with this new issue, how is my SLING supposed to work with this error 789 all the time? I've thrown a GOB of money at modems, routers and hardware to get...

    DISH / Blockbuster Announcement Discussion Thread!

    The only BB in 80 miles is closing here. The signs went up last week that they are selling lock, stock, and counters in this store. So I don't see how it would be advantageous for me to sign up for anything but the base pkg. I am already paying 130+ now for Almost Everything Package.

    Dish Sling Adapter Running Error Thread

    Over two weeks of on-and-off usage with no more tweaks other than what I posted above to my modem/network. I have less problems with dish.sling.com than I do with dishonline.com, so go figure that one out. Random 46(46) errors as well as 36(2) errors but not as frequent as first few days. I...

    Dish Sling Adapter Running Error Thread

    OK, Where do I start... Or continue... I have been getting ERROR 46(46) intermittently all night. The longest I went without incident on my home network was about 30 min, the least was 2 minute between errors. The SAGEMcom F@st1704 is easy to configure if you have done ANY router/dsl modem...

    Dish Sling Adapter Running Error Thread

    I like the dish.sling.com interface much better than DRA because they keep asking me about the green light and so far that is the only place my browser displays it. Now tonight using DO, I was able to connect at 8015kbps-9023kbps on my home network. The best I could ever get with dish.sling.com...

    Dish Sling Adapter Running Error Thread

    I have a notepad open on my laptop and copy the errors to it every time it happens because I want to get this FIXED!!! I wish that there was a FAQ or index of ERROR Codes so I know what way to look. But Dish either doesn't know or doesn't want US to know. I even put timestamps and durations as...

    Dish Sling Adapter Running Error Thread

    I'd like to start a sticky thread with Sling adapter errors: I've had a DIRT member working with me for 12 days and I am NO CLOSER than when I started. I am ready to ship lock stock and barrel back to dish. I'd like for this to work so I can go on vacation in my RV and still stream my...

    DISH Online took a dive

    I usually try to connect through dish.sling.com so I can get the [watch live tv] buttons but so far I am so fer up with this Sling ACRAPTER that I am ready to send it (and the 722) back. I just tried connecting after about 30 hours and I got Error 8, then constant error 2's. I haven't been able...
