It should be labeled a lease fee, but you never know... In any event, you're right.

Ditto on the one-too-many $5 fees. But this is probably an older bill, so the price increases aren't reflected in the original post. On second thought, I just learned that the Dish'n It Up program for existing customers doesn't include a first lease fee. So a $10 ($15 or $16 w/ DVR fee) lease...

I currently have three owned receivers and AT180. If I get rid of two of them for a 622, I'll be charged $6 for a lease fee, $5.98 for a DVR fee, and the usual $5 additional receiver fee? That $6 lease fee might be a deal breaker; I thought the first lease fee was always free. Leasing a 622...

I want to win. I want to win.

If your buddy wants Columbus locals, he'd better go ahead and die because they require a SuperDish.

They are: BCM7038 dual-channel HDTV and digital video recorder(DVR) chip BCM7411 AVC video decoder/audio processor chip The "two-chip solution is currently shipping in volume production to leading set-top box manufacturers including EchoStar".

If they took your equipment and didn't give you what you were promised in exchange, isn't that theft? You could have threatened small-claims court.

Probably bandwidth concerns, or other, in their minds, more pressing issues. You might contact E* and tell them what you think. Companies that don't hear their customers' wants often don't give their customers what they want. ceo@dishnetwork.com

No, S-Video is analog and is the round connection about 1 cm across that has several wire leads inside. The Toslink is digital and is driven by a light that sends a digital signal used for audio (often surround sound) down a fiber optic cable to an audio receiver. It seems that you have a...

You only need a converter if you use a legacy receiver with DishPro switches and LNBs, not the other way around.

Can someone answer the question so all this fun bickering can stop?

Oh, that's right. Use the S-Video and the audio RCA jacks (red and white). The S-Video is a little better than the yellow RCA.

Yes, you can. The DVD recorder works just like a VCR. You will have to connect it to the three RCA jacks (yellow, red, and white). I'm pretty sure you can record HD channels, although it won't be HD quality.

the Dish 500 has to have legacy (not DishPro) LNBs.

I'll start out with #5. Yes, you can pick your own equipment. If you want 4 TVs and at least one with DVR, I would recommend getting a 625 and a 322. That way, you can independently control four TVs and two of them would have DVR capability. I think the 625 has a $20 one-time fee. The AT120...

Well, it says that an older two-chip MPEG4 solution is being shipped in quantity to E*. E* could be ramping up production now or soon.

E* subscribers? I don't think they give out that information. Or are you talking about Nielson reports about DMAs?

Maybe if you've registered an online account, get email newsletters and statements, or have credit card autopay, then can require you. I haven't received my bill yet, IIRC.

D* is dropping Tivo. Sure, D* Tivos will be around and supported for a while, but eventually, all will be replaced with MPEG4 boxes in the next few years. E* I don't think would ever contract with Tivo to build boxes together. People seem to think that Charlie is neurotic about keeping...
