    On Demand can’t watch or delete

    I selected 3 On Demand shows to watch last week that were all free. In the past, it had options to watch now or watch later. I noticed that wasn’t there. The problem now is that there isn’t a selection to watch any of them. Also I haven’t been able to delete them. No option and recall button...

    We had a really bad electrical storm come through the area today with lots of lightening. When I got home and tried to turn on Dish, the tv says nothing is hooked up to input. The green light is on the Hopper but no picture. So I tried resetting it. Then I tried unplugging it. Nothing. So I...

    Nashville CBS 5 black lines?

    Has anyone that has Nashville CBS 5 noticed little black lines going across the screen the last few days? They look like interference lines or something. I'm getting them on 2 different receivers and only noticed on channel 5. They aren't there all the time. Just randomly.

    I have several different programs showing up on my DVR schedule to record that shouldn't be there. I have the timer set to only record NEW shows. These are not new when I pull up the show info screen. It is not just one show either. I am seeing at least 4 different shows with scheduled...

    Does anyone know if I can purchase a one day ESPN Game Plan view using the remote or would I have to call in to order it? Also, I have heard that the price of a one day "pass" is $21.95. Is that right? Thanks

    Caller ID display on TV2 now?

    Today I was watching the tv in my home office (TV2 output from 522) and received a phone call. A caller id message came up at the top of the screen. I have never seen this before. I know that in the past, caller ID was only displayed on TV1. Is this a new feature?

    Is there a browse guide?

    My parents had Direct installed today. They have been with Dish for over 5 years. Mom called tonight asking if I had any idea how to get the browse guide to come up. I said no (I also have Dish). She can get the complete guide to come up but not a browse type display. I hope browse is the...

    Guide downloads each time??

    My parents have a Dish 500 and are using a 301 receiver. For the past week, each time they press the guide button, it comes up and says it has to download. Most of the time it just sits there and doesn't download at all and they end up pressing cancel. Has anyone had this problem? Any...

    Trees blocking 129???

    I had an appointment today to upgrade from a 522/Dish 500 to a 622 with a Dish 1000. He says that tree limbs (which are on my neighbors property) are blocking my line to the 129 bird and he can not get a signal off it at all. So, he ends up taking the 1000 back down and putting the 500 back...

    522 to 622 any deals??

    I am just finishing the construction of a new house and getting ready to request a "Dish Move". Are there any current promotions for someone going from a 522 to a 622? If not, does anyone expect a deal anytime soon. As I can wait to have it moved for probably about another month. Thanks

    Price increase while in one year contract?

    I signed up for DISH back in September under a lease including a 522 and Top120 with locals. My contract states that I have to maintain service for a period of at least 12 months. I rec'd the letter regarding the rate increase. My question is whether they can do this while I am under a 12...

    I bought an extra UHF remote off Ebay to control TV2 from a 3rd room. Have the Leapfrog system. Anyway, the remote that I bought looks like an older UHF remote. Not like the one that I got with my 522 system. It will work on IR when in front of the receiver. I have not been able to get it...

    I had my dish installed last night. I found out today that the installer did NOT ground either the dish or the coax cables with ground blocks. He finished up after dark last night and it was slightly raining. So, I did not go out and look at the wiring very closing outside. The picture was...

    Had the 522 installed last night. I have Charter cable running into the 522 through the OTA/Cable input. I can watch either Dish or Charter on TV1 with no problem. My question is whether I should be able to watch Charter on TV2 also. If so, I have no clue what I'm doing wrong. Thanks

    I live in a patio home that is built on a concrete slab (thus no crawl space). The installer is coming tomorrow and he says the only way to install is to run the cable on the outside of my house and then drill a hole through the wall to the rooms where the TVs are located. I am getting a 522...
