    Problem "pairing" my vip722 with my LOGITECH REVUE with GOOGLE TV.

    No. I use my ATT gateway as well as an apple airport. I think I am going to try some more resets this weekend and then may give up and call Vizio. I read on some other boards people had to request a new remote. I hope not though.

    Problem "pairing" my vip722 with my LOGITECH REVUE with GOOGLE TV.

    Yes. The 722 is connected to the internet via wireless. I receive a pairing code but it always fails. I probably put it in a hundred times with failure every time.

    Problem "pairing" my vip722 with my LOGITECH REVUE with GOOGLE TV.

    Yeah. It is in the same physical location as the 722. It looks like it should work but that dang pairing is making me angry. The only reason I wanted it was for the PrimeTime app which makes searching a lot easier. If I can't get it to integrate I guess I will return the Co-Star. It has...

    Problem "pairing" my vip722 with my LOGITECH REVUE with GOOGLE TV.

    Yeah. It still does cost $4 for Google TV integration. I called and had it put on my account and it acts like it works since it now tries to pair the remote to the 722k. But the pairing fails every time. Nothing makes it work. I reset both the Co-Star and the 722k, I deleted the remote and...

    Problem "pairing" my vip722 with my LOGITECH REVUE with GOOGLE TV.

    Did anyone ever get a solution to this? I just purchased a Vizio Co-Star and I cannot get it to pair to my 722k. I spent two hours last night trying to figure out why it wouldn't pair. Any help on this would be appreciated. Both wirelessly connect to the same home network and the remote will...

    Judge Lets Broadcasters' Claims Against Dish Network Proceed in California

    I get the tv industry point of view. I wouldn't mind if commercials were somehow integrated into programs. At least then it wouldn't be a waste of time. But they already do that with product placement. This is just like many other things in the world. If they can't afford to produce...

    Judge Lets Broadcasters' Claims Against Dish Network Proceed in California

    And this is just a ridiculous defense in the current day. They can't call it "free" tv if they turn around and charge Dish and other service providers to re-transmit their shows. They are double-dipping and then have the gall to try and cry foul. That is just lunacy.

    Judge Lets Broadcasters' Claims Against Dish Network Proceed in California

    I just don't understand how anyone can think what Dish is offering is illegal in any way. All they are doing is allowing users to automate something they could already do. I have Dish and ATT, with U-Verse I have 4 streams. If I choose to set all four to record all programs from 7-10pm every...

    recordings that don't stop on time

    Something switched in my 722 that caused all recordings to start 60 minutes early and stop 90 minutes late. I had to go back in and modify everything and then reset 0 and 0 as the defaults. Might be some kind of bug because it did it again about 3 days later.

    May be Switching to U-verse from DN

    U-Verse has about 10 HD channels less than Dish Network after Dish's channel increase and decrease. U-Verse currently has more Premium HD channels than Dish but doesn't have as many of the non-premiums. I did hear they are working to add some of the ones that Dish added recently like Sci-Fi...

    Reply from DN concerning VOOM

    The money they offered each soldier was returned or used for other purposes. But we received the real medals. I have one and it has been verified authentic. We received it right before we left. Now, if you received one some time later or whatever maybe you got a false metal one, I can't say...

    I personally received the gold version of that medal that is on display. Your CO must have made some money or something.

    Reply from DN concerning VOOM

    How is this a PR nightmare? How many people do you think actually noticed this? I can tell you all around me are dishes from DISH network and I have talked to them and you know what? Not one said a word about VOOM being gone. And the reality is check out any block with a bunch of dishes and...

    Statement from Dish Network on VOOM Takedown

    Seriously, what a bunch of whiny babies. Good lord. They are just HD channels. Is your life changed THAT much by this? I have said in other posts, you are a VERY small number of people that actually want VOOM. Most people have NO knowledge of it, even if they actually have HD. Seriously...

    VOOM Goes BOOM - update Dish Drops all 15 VOOM Channels

    But the contract as it stands does not allow them to just keep the five channels. That is what part of the dispute was about. DISH wanted to tier VOOM since it knew that there are some channels that are watched and many that aren't. And since VOOM failed to spend $100M it gave them the...

    VOOM Goes BOOM - update Dish Drops all 15 VOOM Channels

    I would personally wait before you go jumping off of cliffs about this stuff. This is either a ploy by Charlie to get VOOM in line or he plans on adding something in to replace those 15 channels. They seem to be sticking to that 100 National HD tagline since they have channels up in the 9000s...

    Uplink Activity 5/12/08 11:55 PM EDT 10 VOOMs gone.

    Is this really news? Scott or someone posted that court ruling where they said DISH could stop broadcasting the VOOM channels immediately. I think we should have known this was coming as soon as that surfaced. The addition of the channels yesterday had to be timed to offset the VOOM cutoff...

    as of right now CHILLER is now active

    That was exactly my thought. I haven't watched a recent movie or tv show yet. All I have seen has been from the 80s or early 90s but it looks horrible. Like I said, it is a bit better on U-Verse but not by much. Definitely not a channel I would be begging for.

    as of right now CHILLER is now active

    Yeah. It is up but man is the PQ horrible. I have it on U-Verse as well and it looks much better. Maybe it was just what happened to be on when I was looking at it but it was just grainy and blurry. That really needs to be cleaned up.

    Ouch, D's new Advertising Graphic

    Yeah. I went through doing some counts to compare DISH/DIRECT/FIOS/U-Verse and you have to throw in PPV and VOOM to get up to anything approaching 45 for DISH (I realize they count on the VOOM channels but they seem a huge waste to me most of the time). DIRECT is obviously the clear leader...

    SCI/FI HD and USA HD Delayed till team summit?? (NOT CONFIRMED)

    Yeah. As I said, some of the services are delivered via IP. But the overall service is not IPTV.

    SCI/FI HD and USA HD Delayed till team summit?? (NOT CONFIRMED)

    FIOS is NOT IPTV. It is basically cable service over fiber. So it is fast cable. IPTV works completely different and offers many advancements in the future. Some of FIOS pieces are delivered via IP but the actual video is delivered via standard cable processes.
