    722k No Ability to Hide DVR Events

    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...

    Uplink Activity Report - 12/06/2006 - 20 changes

    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

    522 Software L4.11 Issues?

    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...

    522 Software L4.11 Issues?

    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 Software L4.11 Issues?

    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...

    2.33???

    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...

    522 audio/video sync, pops, etc

    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...

    DVR 522 event history said it recorded - but no show to watch?

    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...

    DVR 522 Install - 2 dishes?!?

    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...

    New problem with 522?

    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...

    BlueDo: Alternative UHF remote for 322/522 IR-only remote #1

    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.

    Remote for 522

    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...

    522 Timer Conflicts with idle tuner

    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...

    DVR 522 Remote Code for Sony Receiver

    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...

    522 L2.07 Update

    522 software update I have the newest 522 software update and I've read every item in this thread. I have yet to experience any of the problems you all are mentioning which I find unusual given my use of the 522. I record 6-10 shows during the day using NBR, and then play most of them that...

    522 install...did I have a lazy installer?

    I have a 522. I have 1 RG-6 cable from the outside running to my living room. Period. Through this 1 cable pass a LOT of signals - it passes the 2 (or 3 nor sure) signals from the 2 dishes I have on the side of my house - 1 normal dish and 1 for local channels. Then I have a signal passing...

    DVR522 - Alias too dark?

    Not sure where to put this post, it came through the 522, so I'll put it in this forum. Is it me, or was the 2 hour Alias last night really dark and pixellated? I checked the signal strength and it looked ok. Other shows were bright and non-pixellated as normal. Did they dumb down the...

    questions on the 522

    You're not saying that you can record different 2 events at the same time while watching a third show, right? With only 2 tuners, you can only have two different shows tuned in from my understanding.

    Recording and info don't match

    In the list of recorded DVR events (not the TIMERS list), it should have the actual name of the DVR event recorded, even if a NBR timer recorded it. Original forum person says "Dr. Phil" on the event list, but Beverly Hillbillies is really what was recorded. The DVR events should not be...

    recording to dvd

    I have my 522's TV1s 3 RCAs out hooked up to my Sony 500 (DVD burner/VCR unit) in, and this works fine. They actually come out of the 522 into the Sony and then back out of the Sony DVD/VCR into my Sony Receiver via the DVD-in and then to my TV. This way I can switch my receiver and see TV2 on...

    Serious Bug in Latest 522 SW

    This is also occuring with shows such as New Yankee Workshop, Gold Fever, Prospecting America, Buzzardize Classics. It sucks. During the transition from non-NBR to NBR, it skipped part 2 of a 3 part series I really needed to see. -John PS: 7 times of Trading Spaces is not too bad...

    522 - Unexpected hard drive test

    Anybody know why at about halftime of the sugar bowl last night my 522 when into a hard drive test? I could cancel, but it said it would do a soft reboot or something (reset?). I've seen this happen around my 3am program guide upload time once, but never during prime time. Anyway, for...

    Now DVR 522 Needs

    Batch Play - 522 I second the suggestion for batch play. You all must have run outta space like I did in the first week or two and decided to go either get a load of VHS tapes or a new DVD recorder and start recording events off the 522. Set up 4 30-minute shows and hit the VCR record...
