When I switched to the Hopper I had one 922 and two 722k's which I owned. I decided I could re-purpose their internal drives for my computers. The problem is that they are set to not spin up when power is first applied but rather wait for a command from the SATA controller to spin up. I...

Is there a website or post that shows current and soon to be released firmware updates for receivers. I thought in the past I found such a post on SatelliteGuys but I cannot find it now. Michael

Today I went to run Dish anywhere on my HP laptop running win 8.1 and Chrome browser and it refused to load and chrome shows an error message "Dish Anywhere - showcase has become unresponsive". It gets to the main page with the picture of "Game of Thrones" and stalls. I tried another computer...

I have a 3D TV, Dish occasionally does broadcast 3D movies, however, the only receivers which will show the 3D movies in 3D are either the Hopper or the 922. In my situation I cannot have a Hopper, because if I do then I cannot use my 612 in my RV and I will lose my super stations. So if I...

Currently I am on western arc. Because my locals are now in HD on 61.5 I wanted to install a wing dish pointed to 61.5 and then discontinue 129. My current dish is a 1000+ with 4 LNB's 129, 119,118,129 and a DP44 switch. I never used 118 and have it disconnected. I know I could have dish...

722k If I am recording off of both my OTA tuners and then try to select a 3 OTA channel, I should get a message that gives me the option to stop one of the recordings or to cancel. Or at least that is what happens if I do this same thing while recording 2 satellite channels. However, instead I...

I have a 500GB external drive that I used on a 622 & a 211k for a year or 2 until the A/C adapter died. Because of that the data on the drive was corrupted. I had a 250 GB drive that I put in the enclosure and adapted a new A/C adapter and it worked fine. I took the original 500GB drive and...

Dishanywhere works fine on my Android Table ICS 4.0.3 for recorded content and live TV but no on demand streaming movies or shows. I have been told this is a known issue, ok so now they know it but when if ever will they fix it. Michael

We are having a strange problem with recordings. This seems to happen with only one OTA channel and it has happened on both of our 722k's. This evening, for example, when watching a program recorded a couple hours earlier it cut off and went to the screen you would normally get when the playback...

When I watch my 722K online (either in my home or away) using my laptop I like to set it to "Full Screen". When I do this the control bar where you can pause, stop, fast forward/backward, disappears and there is no way to bring it up. Believe me I have tried everything. The member of the...

When watching a recorded program on my laptop using DOL and set to full screen, is there supposed to be a bar you can bring up to do things like skip forward or back. Or are there any keystrokes you can use to skip forward or backward. The only way I know to do this now is take it out of...

I just got off the Dish Chat line and was asking about not being able to delete programs I have watched using Dish Online. They told me one of the requirements for DOL was to have a static IP address, and that it was a free option with most ISP? As far as I understand both statements are...

I have noticed recently that many channels are much louder than others. We find we are adjusting the volume much more than the past. Has anyone else noticed this? Michael

Is Dish adhering to the new CALM law?

I have two 722k's , got them about 2 years ago. After about 8 months one refused to boot up, dish replaced it with their famous "referb" of course. Then around the first of this year that same 722k caught the freeze and reboot disease. Dish replaced it, the problem continued, Dish replaced...

My Wife was watching the 007 marathon on Epix. Every time there was an action scene with gunfire for example the sound went way way high! If you turned the volume down so it was tolerable, then when it went to voice only scenes it was to low. This was occurring on All Epix channels for the...

Just how much noise from the hard drive is acceptable? I have 2 722k's, one is over a year old and the other was replaced about 2 months ago. The older one is making more noise (soft wherrying noise) than when it was new, but the recently replaced one is almost as noisy. I know hard drives do...

I am making a long range WiFi antenna using an old 18 inch single LNB satellite dish. I have made a bi-quad antenna on a copper clad reflector and attached it to the old LNB which I gutted. I will be mostly transmitting in a horizontal plane. I know these small dishes receive signal at an...

I am preparing a location for my 722K in my motor home. I am placing it in a small cabinet which is close to the ceiling. The cabinet has no air vents so I will install two 3" vents one will have a 2" muffin fan (off an old computer CPU) which operates on 5 volts I will get from the rear USB...

I have a program which will scan my network and tell me what is connected complete with MAC address and the manufacturer of the equipment. Well I find the name of the manufacturer assigned to the MAC address of each of my 722k receivers are different. One says Echostar and the other says Sling...

New problem with my 722K. There is a poping or crackling sound in audio on most channels (193 is one without the problem). A reboot will fix the problem for for a few days 3-7, then it returns. Anybody else experienced this? Anyone know the cause? I have two 722K's and only one does this...

One of my 722K's started outputting sound with crackling & popping. When this happens you also see a short thin horizontal line in the picture. Since this 722k is also connected via A/V cables to a DVD burner I switch to it and the problem was gone. So it was coming in over the HDMI output...

I got an email advertising the online service called "stream direct tv" anybody know anything about this. There are a few posts on the web that think this is a scam. Anybody have any experience with this? Michael

I just got L750 on both my 722K's. I thought there must be something wrong with the guide as the default list is NOT "All channels" but "My Channels". Before L750 the guide would always come up with the last listing which you displayed. But, not anymore as even though I change it to "All...

I tried to check my queue in BlockBuster but got an error message that said the server may be down for maintenance, Is it?
