    vip722 no audio via hdmi

    see original post my original post mentioned other hdmi sources on the same input work just fine video and audio. The dish receiver thinks it's sending out audio according to diagnostics. I suspect a handshake issue or just bad port. I'd hate to spend money on shipping another replacement...

    vip722 no audio via hdmi

    definitely not the tv. same issue straight to the tv. Plus the tv isn't even in play if directly to the receiver there is no sound either. Yeah, I know I could stick with the component and optical audio. That's not the point. I don't want to have to switch inputs all over the place. With...

    vip722 no audio via hdmi

    I've been using hdmi for video only for 2 years and optical for audio. I got a new lg lhb535 receiver with 2 hdmi and and plan to just use hdmi for video and audio. Only problem is I get video only. No audio at all. Other hdmi sources play audio and video just fine. I see lots of reported...

    What, besides the old "more HD" ,would you like see new for 2011 from Dish?

    On demand comparible or better than directv. I'm not talking about movie rentals. Talking about content included free to subscribers. Like Showtime on demand etc. You know, like everyone else in the world is now doing to stay in business.

    DISH Network Price Change

    I'm going purely streaming/downloading and antenna once my contract is up. The sooner Satellite/Cable companies realize consumers to have al a cart channel selection with a vast on demand line up the more likely they will stick around. One year until I cut the cord!

    OFFICIAL DISH / FOX ORDEAL DISCUSSION THREAD

    This really sucks. This weekend will be the second straight weekend of no Football because of FSN. I don't use my dish for much but FSN is probably 25% of my viewing for football and baseball. So dreading that 24mo contract in January. I singed up for choice+ and now I get no +. Does this...

    OFFICIAL DISH / FOX ORDEAL DISCUSSION THREAD

    I'd gladly drop Dish because of FSN being gone if it weren't for that big old contract hook in my back. But that's why it's as cheap as it is. We mostly watch neflix anyway. But FSN carries all my local teams. :(

    OFFICIAL DISH / FOX ORDEAL DISCUSSION THREAD

    Local football team is finally getting to league games and TV...on FSN. :( I'm guessing I can get credit on my bill for the time it's off? I'm pay $5/month for the "+" on my package and there is no programming for the +

    Dish video on demand

    Is dish planning to ever update their video on demand? I switched from Directv in January and it seems the VOD is very limited. You would think they would at least have the movie network content like showtime. In fact, I just added showtime and fully expected to see the content. Not there...

    Smee! Don't talk me out of it, talk me out of it, Smee!

    So you are saying the only importance is a good picture and DVR? Dish all the way then. I just dumped Directv 6 months early in contract because 18months of dealing with that insanely slow DVR was enough. dish DVR is much more intuitive as well. Picture looks the same to me and directv would...

    Dish Remote Iphone App Problems

    same issue here, glad to know I don't have to troubleshoot any more. The app and interface is MUCH better than directv's but the amount of on demand content is a joke. :(

    Remote Access problem.....receiver offline

    I am connected and can download shows over the web and browse the grid and set shows to record just fine but the "my dvr" tab is still saying not connected. Very frustrating, also the amount of on demand is tiny compared to directv. This disappoints me after the switch. :(

    Picture quality?

    Yes, this is a LCD vs CRT issue. It's less noticable from a distance or higher resolution. It's even worse if you stretch a 480 resolution to 1080 (no pillar box).

    Moving no signal to keep service

    If I move under contract and would like to keep service but cannot get a view of the southern sky am I still obligated to my contract? I would not like to lose service as the local cable company is horrible. There is just no way to see the souther sky through the trees.

    Antenna Recomendation

    u-75r pointed at 250 degrees. cbs, nbc, and pbs all in at 82%, 97%, 72%. At night I got abc and fox in at 70%. That tower is 60 miles away and they don't have a very good signal. KMOS is over 80miles away and I get it at 72% all the time. Very happy for my $25 investment, no amp used yet...

    Antenna Recomendation

    STL was of no concern. Mainly CBS(12) and NBC(36). I went with el cheapo u-75r from RS. Haven't hooked up the digital receiver yet but receive clear vhf 8 and 13. and almost clear distant UHF channels like 17. I think I won't have any issues and even just one OTA hd for the cost of a $25...

    Antenna Recomendation

    I live in the 63361 area code. On antennaweb.org I live almost exactly 2 miles to the east of default entering the zip. I'm looking for a mid range (red,blue) directional antenna to get UHF and VHF. One of the local VHF stations does their HD feed on 12 vhf(13.1 digital). Its about 37mi and...
