    New HD Lineup on Comcast in Indy?

    I just got my cable installed here at the new place because we can't have satellite because we have no balcony or place that is part of our rental agreement/lease. Anyway, when the HD DVR was installed there is a message stating that many Comcast areas will be having the lineups of HDTV changed...

    Question: 625 Dual Mode 2 programs recording

    I just recently came back to DISH Network after almost 2 years of cable. All I can say is first-DISH's receivers have changed! WOW! Second, I have the 625 and have it placed in dual mode. My question: I want to record two programs at one time in this mode. How do I do this without going to TV2...

    HDMI 256 colors, Componment OK???

    I had DirecTV installed last week and everything looked fine until last night. The receiver now is sending a terrible signal to the TV. It looks blocky and like there picture is in 256 colors instead of being normal. Is there a copy protection thing happening? I have the HDMI to DVI cable...

    Freaky guide.

    This morning I turned on my 921 and the guide was all whacked out. New font and layout. I thought at first it might just need to be rebooted. Pulled the card and it rebooted. Still the weird guide. I then tried a power-plug reboot. Still the weird guide. I am still at the same version number. I...

    No HD, Dropping my package levels

    Until DISH decides to add some more HD content at any of their satellite locations, I have decided to drop my package levels. I went down to AT120 and also dropped down to just HBO and Showtime. Are others doing this? -Wil

    Complete frustration with DISH and moving

    I just called DISH Network twice to get my service moved (previously, I have always installed my own systems). I am told that the free DISHMover program is actually $50 because I have three receivers (and one of them is the 921). I told them that I would only be taking the 921 with me as I have...

    Initial thoughts on 921 (was: It's coming to tomorrow)

    Just had to jump in here and say my 921 will be here tomorrow at some point it is on a truck heading my way! Yippeee! I can tell you what I will be doing on my two days off and then the weekend. :D :!: See first posting on page 2 for my observations :!:

    Impressions of the 811 after 24 hours (Rants and applause)

    WOW! QUIET! PEACEFUL! That was my very first impression of the 811. If only my coming 921 could be this quiet. Well, I have to say that there is something strange going on with my 811, and I have gotten the same CSR (or at least the same voice and name) and was hung up on twice, that is 2...

    Any 921 ETA predictions?

    I was wondering if anybody has heard if the 921s are hitting dealer shelves, yet? I think I was reading someplace that they were, but I was in the middle of reading it and got called away for work and forget where I was reading it. On a related note, my 811 was delivered and I can not wait to...

    Initial costs

    What is the initial cost for Voom and what does this cover. The local sears has a display, but they had not price and the sale people were clueless. They thought it was Dish Network's HD offering.

    721: Never seen this screen before...

    Is this a new feature with the last upgrade? After selecting a PVR event, I was taken to a second screen with two mini-events. You can select either one and it will start at that point. In this screen shot, it would start at the start if you selected the first part or in the middle if you...
