Amateur DIY Dish installer here. I have previously installed dish 500 and 300 and learnt alot from trials and errors but still by no means I am any expert in it. I am installing dish 1000+ for someone and just the size of dish has scared me. I have previously read that 1000+ are the most...

Come on man... tell me there is hope for HD recording in Media Center. Is Ben's resource legit? I am counting on you for good news....:hungry: Is stargate different from Draco, or same fish?

Oh man, you just faded all my hopes. You mostly have solid info but I am wishing your prediction is untrue. Ben over at Engadget is very optimistic of Dish Tuner to be released at CEDIA. CEDIA 2009 Windows Media Center predictions

I am in agreement as well. As far as concerned with interface, Sling Media (owned by echo) launched website very similar ( in contents and layout) to hulu. And that website will be available on newer DVR 922 to be browsed. That website has much better contents than current selection and...
