French TV5 French channel TV5 is fine for a SD channel, however they use some horrible surround sound or noise reduction system that causes intermittent sound artifacts on the surround channels, like if the entire sound field would become out of phase for a few seconds every time the sound...

Welcome to big government world!

I can confirm that my 622 has the skip button problem, as described by some here. My wife gets quite annoyed, because she thinks that I'm pressing the button too many times. Normally, the first two times I press "skip back" will work fine, but the third time it's pressed, when done in a short...

Timer rename Exactly. That would be the most significant simple improvement that Dish could make to its DVR. :up

Bug found: editing names within groups I found one bug with 6.22: when using groups, if you edit a show's name and then return to the list of shows in the group, the name will not reflect the change just made until you exit the group list and then get back in.

I don't think there's any way of doing it with the 622. It would be nice however if Dish engineers would implement a command in the system menu that would allow us to save all personalized settings, such as configuration options and timers, to a file on a USB pen drive that could be used to...

Yes, I have the same channel mapping problem with 6.18, it's really quite annoying.

Use the "I forgot my password" link on the login page, it will ask you to select a new password by sending you an E-mail with the link where you should do it.

It has happened to me a couple of times among hundreds of recordings. No clue why.

I have 6.18. I'm having frequent audio dropouts with HDNet Movies (and HDNet) when the show is DVR recorded. Some movies and shows are more affected than others. For example, I decided to test it thoroughly yesterday, and watched "Little Big Man" at 9:30 PM, "Bonnie and Clyde" at 12:00 AM, and...

Audio dropouts? Picture quality has always been fine with HDNet Movies. Even if not perfect, much better than the rest. I'm having however frequent audio dropouts with HDNet Movies (and HDNet) when the show is DVR recorded. Some movies and shows are more affected than others. For example, I...

Stupid name, period.

Audio dropouts continue to happen even after a power plug reboot. Just had six of them while watching "Judgment at Nuremberg" recorded from HDNet Movies. Those are the same random drops that I've been having since FW 4 or 5, brief and not repeatable by rewinding. It means that nothing appears to...

No more dropouts after reset routine! ViP622 here. As I reported before, I was having audio dropouts with HDNet after FW 6.16. I called tech support and they went with me over the reset routine, basically collecting information from all info menus, then doing a sat diagnosis (System Info)...

Dropouts for sure ViP622. Hard reboot. I recorded at least 6 episodes of Star Trek Enterprise on HDNet after version 6.16 was downloaded, and had random audio dropouts *in all episodes*. It's very frustrating. I have never had audio dropouts with Star Trek Enterprise on HDNet before 6.16.
