    Is there a way to record something off the DVR?

    say, to a PC or even a vcr? I suppose I could plug in the vcr to the video out, then tv to the vcr, old school... but pc would be preferrable. is an external hard drive the only supported device on usb?

    Another terrible/great customer service story

    I ordered a 622 when they first came out, replaced an 811 with it. there were some issues related to shipping, install, etc that ceo@dishnetwork was very helpful in ironing out. I finally ordered the 211 to replace the other 811 upstairs (don't ask me why it took so long, i don't know) and...

    Observations after a month of using my ViP622

    I just wanted to weigh in with my opinion. I'm sure there is a dedicated thread somewhere, but if I couldn't find it immediately, I'm sure some of you couldn't either :) Anyway, I had replaced an 811 and Tivo with the new 622 a month ago. I paid the $299 lease fee, as I didn't want to wait...

    Will I definitely need a Dish1000 for the new 622?

    I have a Dish500 and a 2nd dish pointed to the 61.5 Voom bird, and the CSR told me that would suffice. I don't trust CSR's, but I do trust Satellite guys :) Anybody know for sure on this?

    Anybody else notice sound sync issues on TNTHD

    in particular "Into the West"? I also get issues on CBS OTA on my 811. But all the HD channels seem to have issues far more than the SD stuff... What a pain.

    tivo vs dish/generic PVR's

    So, I've been a Tivo user for some time, and also happen to be a Mac user. I kind of think the two are very similar experiences. My Tivo is a plain old series two SD 40hour unit, no upgrades, no hacks. I love it. My wife loves it. Part of what we love so much is the operating system itself...

    I'm almost glad this finally happened.

    Now I don't have to waffle about whether or not to get re-installed at the new house.

    Voom Early Term fee, unwarranted? or am I out of luck?

    First of all, let me thank the other forum members for a very useful repository. I have lurked for some time :) Secondly, I loved Voom. The product was just what I was looking for. Until... I initially had Voom installed in December. We sold our house and moved into a condo until our...
