    vip722K audio problem HD DVR to SD live switch

    Hi, I have the following problem. Wonder if you think it is a bug in software or a hardware issue with my vip722k box. Here is what happens. If I watch an SD channel live and then decide to watch an HD recording, then when I come back to the SD channel live there is no audio, but picture is...

    Grounding question

    OK, I checked.; My DPP44 switch is some kind of dark grey color on the sides and lighter color in the middle. It also says UL on it. So, that means I have a new version and can use for the grounding?

    Compression/bandwidth on 118.7 sat

    the prolem I am seeing has spread to 2 russian channels now, TVCI and RTVI (probably broadcast by the same guys). Unfortunately, it is not dependent on type of content: movies or talk shows...those tiny vertical lines of the color of the feed are visible no matter what..just sometimes more than...

    Compression/bandwidth on 118.7 sat

    I wonder how long Dish can get away with doing this? Maybe until enough people complain? Is it fair that they ask us to pay the same price for those international packages when the quality was good on 148, but now it is much worse on 118, but same price?

    Bad LNBF?

    I wonder if this helps. I checked a different international channel on the SAME transponder as the one that was causing me problems, and it looks just fine. So, what do you think is the problem now? Can it be the dpp44 switch maybe? But how does it explain that all the other channels are fine...

    Compression/bandwidth on 118.7 sat

    what do you think about this. On 1-2 russian channels I have wiered vertical lines visible (something that looks like fish bones, exzcept they are straight)...I checked with other TV, etc and other receiver..same thing. So, I also cheched a different channel on the SAME transponder...and it was...

    Grounding question

    Guys, I have dish 1000+ with dpp44 switch. I have a grounding block along the cable, but the problem is that it is past the switch (I added the switch just the other day). So, how would I ground it now because at the switch the cable "splits" basically, so there is no straightforward way for...

    Compression/bandwidth on 118.7 sat

    that makes sense. I wonder if Dish plans on "resolving" this issue somewhat, e.g. moving it to DBS again or decresing the number of channels on TPs for current ku band? All in all, they should know that the quality is pretty unacceptable...if they care :)

    Compression/bandwidth on 118.7 sat

    any idea what green bias is?? I hooked up my second receiver, and it was doing the same thing. So probably it is not the receiver. I agree about the signal strength. I have some channels with lower signal strength on those tps as others that are higher, and their pq is much better.

    I think this totally makes sense...the compression problem on the Dish's end.

    Bad LNBF?

    Hi Guys, Is it possible that one of my LNBF (specifically 118) is bad if I get bad reception on couple of channels from that satellite (on a few transponders only)? By bad reception I mean, vertical lines visible on the screen especially on 1 channel. This channel also has waves going from...

    HDTV question

    Guys, Have the following question. If watching HDTV (HD programming) from a very close distance (especially when looking at tv screen from above or from a very close angle) are you supposed to notice some tiny pixels or not? Am I experiencing pixelation and my signal from dish is bad, or is it...

    Compression/bandwidth on 118.7 sat

    sounds good..I mean frustrating..but nothing can do about it. So, you don't think that blurring is my LNBF or singnal strength/quality of the dish.

    Compression/bandwidth on 118.7 sat

    Anybody knows if compression is too high or bandwidth is too low on the 118 sat (international channels)? the pq looks too poor. thanks

    Compression/bandwidth on 118.7 sat

    Too much green coloring, esp on 118 sat? ok, guys. Maybe I am just paranoid and need to have my eyes checked. But, I have noticed too much green coloring on some channels (especially 118 sat international, but also on others 110/119 except HD 129). It is more visible when viewing on HD tv or...
