    Dish vs Uverse

    I'm in Sacramento, CA, I just switched from Dish to Uverse a month ago or so. I honestly forget how large the drive is on the DVR, which is kinda lame but I've been super busy. It's enough though, I think it was slightly less advertised recording time than my 622. The tech it uses is really...

    Lost HDMI

    What exactly is this code for? My 622 HDMI is bad and I'd love to get a 722 replacement.

    sound dropping for a second?

    Sounds like the same problem we're having, Kevin. Doesn't seem like anyone has a solution yet.

    sound dropping for a second?

    I guess it's time to start hounding Dish about it. I wonder if it's a software or hardware issue. Please post if anyone makes any headway on this. Thanks.

    sound dropping for a second?

    This is getting worse for me. Seems to be happening on more channels, not just 1 or 2 locals. Again, happens on TV1 connected to a receiver via toslink and also on TV2 over coax. It's getting pretty annoying. The wife wants me to call and complain, but I don't really want to play run around...

    sound dropping for a second?

    Yeah, nice catch. What a mess. I'm surprised it's doing that, I figured it was in the signal since my coax run to TV2 was giving me the same audio drops. Must be something in the way the 622 pushes the stream to the optical port. Now my bigger problem is periodically, while watching recorded...

    sound dropping for a second?

    I have been seeing this problem a lot, very annoying. For me it showed up mostly on the ABC HD local (Sacramento). It will cut out very small bits of audio, but sporadically throughout, so you'll miss words here and there. I have a 622 and it happens on my toslink as well as on the coax run...

    What HD pack do you have?

    I had the HD Enabling fee, but I'm going to upgrade to the Essential pack. $3 more is definitely worth it, but I don't think I'd get much mileage out of the Ultimate pack. Of course, someone had to go and inform me that I'm missing out on Lawrence of Arabia in HD, which hurts my soul :)

    hd enable fee question

    That's what I've been doing for the last year. You actually get your locals in HD, and a few scattered channels here and there. I was surprised to find BigTen HD the other day. Now that they have a $10 HD package, it doesn't make sense to pay the $7 fee. I think I'm going to get the...
