    Existing Customer Promotion

    I came across this promotion somewhere and had to check with Dish to see if it was legit, it was. Between a package reduction and this deal, I am saving about $20. Not a lot but every penny helps. The break is for a new 2-year commitment and since I was not going anywhere after more than 18...

    Hopper w/ Sling: recording playback behaving oddly

    Just finished up with DIRT, Matt figures the problem is a dying hard drive and the receiver is being replaced. My unit has been so trouble free that I have not been on this useful site for quite awhile. It sure came in handy today and feel privileged to be a member. Thanks

    LIN Guide data

    I was not too happy about the guide situation myself. If you look at the guide you will see that the time frames for the shows are intact. I figure I will make adjustments one day at a time. I put the OTA timers below the dish timers so when this is straightened out I can just delete the...

    Oprah Too Loud

    Has anyone else noticed that OWN is at least twice as loud as other channels (even the Dish ads). If the DVR is stopped and the channel is on OWN, standby to be jolted!!:eek:

    Top Chef All-stars....Lost....Then Found

    We created a timer for Top Chef All-Stars when it started a few weeks ago. We realized that after the first episode nothing had recorded. A check of the timer found no episodes listed. A bit of detective work discovered that the guide listed the program as Top Chef. Apparently the guide...

    Having trouble with Sound and Voice being out of sync with the Picture!!! Anybody else???

    With my Vizio I have been able to use the built in lip sync adjustments in the menu to make corrections. Except for the NBC Evening News which remains way off. Sometimes I have to watch it like a radio!!

    New software - The new program guide colors suck!!!

    Sound Control Leveling Maybe Dish is reluctant to activate sound leveling since their commercials are some of the loudest programing we get!! :rolleyes:

    NFL Network blackout in Buffalo?

    So, I go to the NFL Network to watch the Bills/Redskins game tonight and can't get it. This is preseason, we have not lost hope yet. Don't they expect people here to be watching? Have to go OTA

    More HD to move from 61.5 to 72.7?

    Did I hear what you said?? This just caught my eye and I had to respond. I really do not remember being carded when the 61.5/110/119 setup was installed at the house. I believe the deciding factor was my Buffalo, NY location rather than my age !!:D

    Best Signal Strength Meter for RVing

    Turning the volume way up on the TV may be one way of doing it. It is also a good way to irritate your new neighbor. :mad:

    Vizio codes for dish remote

    I have to use the original TV Remote to change the TV inputs. I don't think the Dish Remote cares too much about that. :)

    722 jerky HD playback (audio is fine)

    So for the first time in 10 months I had the Jerky Playback problem with the 722 (HDMI). A search found this thread and seeing the sugested fixes I opted to turn the TV on and off rather than reboot and screw up the recording of "Survivor". This has corrected the problem. Hopefully it will...

    I logged in this morning because I wanted to find out when my 3 months of Platinum HD expired. A notice came up as the account page loaded telling me when it expired, providing a link to opt out and of course to upgrade. Keeping the 200 classic with HD package is what i want to do so if the...
