    922 Beta Done?

    I would HIGHLY doubt this receiver is released before next year.

    New Software!

    I think with APH1, sling is a known "bug".

    VIP 222 EHD

    Call me crazy, but I don't think the 222 is ever going to get EHD support. The 222k will, but not the silver 222.

    Can I still activate my old 522?

    I wouldn't see why not. It may need to take a new download.

    DVR problems with box 522.

    In QAM mode, dual mode is disabled. If you were ever in dual mode while in QAM mode it was a bug.

    722 and 222 chipset changes?

    No, not all of the VIP are Broadcom. Currently the 612 and 222 use ST and Conexant, respectively.

    722 and 222 chipset changes?

    There are new 222 and 722 coming though. 222 def has new chipset, basically going to be a 722 with no hard drive for reals this time.

    Team Summit: General Assembly Notes

    I realize I'm a couple days late but just wanted to point something out. Slinging is not capable on current 722. It isn't just a software update to add this functionality. The reason is basically slinging requires an re-encode of the stream and there is no such hardware in the current 722.

    Dual HD DVR Question

    You can record 3 at a time (2 DBS and 1 OTA). There is only 1 HD output on the 622/722, so you can only watch 1 HD program at a time. TV2 can watch a downrezed HD program though.

    TR40 Question

    Probably going to see it marketed as a sling product.

    New to Dish and disappointed

    This thread is full of xenophobia. Who cares where the call center is located if you got good service?

    VIP622 and QAM

    The headend is not "special" Dish hardware. It's is just using a different standard than your standard cable qam. But you are correct that there is no current way to connect a 622 to cable qam. While in qam mode a 622 (or any qbox supported box) does not even pick up regular sat signals...
