    Can't reuse external storage drive from ViP 622 with my PC?

    I had an USB drive that I was using for external storage with my ViP 622. I've cancelled my account and returned by 622. How can I reuse this drive with my PC? I've connected it to my Windows 7 computer, but it does not find the drive. Any ideas? Thanks!

    Copy files off Vip622 external USB drive?

    Is there a way to copy recordings off a Vip622 exernal USB drive so that I can watch them on a PC or archive them to DVD? I'm looking at dumping Dish but don't want to lose some of the shows that I have DVR'd and stored on an external drive. Thanks.

    Hide VIP622 but still use remote?

    Thanks griz_fan. I think I will give this a try. Does this impact the TV2 remote, or will the TV2 remote continue to function as it has? Thaks.

    Hide VIP622 but still use remote?

    Thanks for all the replies folks! I think I'm going to give the X10 IR repeater a try and see what happens. Another question... How much range can I expect from the TV2 remote? My planned location for the 622 will put it one floor down from TV2 in the basement. I can position the 622...

    Hide VIP622 but still use remote?

    Thanks for the replies. I should have mentioned in my original post that I running in dual mode and, more importantly, I would like to continue using my Harmony remote. Here's what I am thinking... X10 Remote Control Extender Kit: Amazon.com: X10 POWERMID Remote Control Extender Kit PM5900...

    Hide VIP622 but still use remote?

    I'm trying to move my VIP622 to an out of the way location. However, unlike with the TV2 remote, it seems that the main remote needs line of sight with the 622. Can someone suggest a way around this? Thanks.

    Class Action Lawsuit against Dish for Dropping Voom?

    My premise was simply that there must be some limits to what they can do. Where's the line? Seriously. Again, I'm not in favor of a lawsuit here. I am curious though, if you are so annoyed by this discussion as your last few sentences lead me to believe, why continue to follow the thread and...

    Class Action Lawsuit against Dish for Dropping Voom?

    I'm certainly not advocating the lawsuit idea, but musn't there be some limits to what Dish can do? I mean, if they had a contract clause that allows them to cut off my finger it they don't like the way I channel surf, and I foolishly sign it, do they really have the right to my finger? On a...

    Class Action Lawsuit against Dish for Dropping Voom?

    I can't speak for the original poster, but when I switched to Dish about two years ago, the CSR made it seem as though I had to sign a 2 year contract. Fortunately, I research such decisions more thoroughly than anyone should be expected to, so I knew better. :)

    HDNET, HDTHR, TNTHD no longer part of HD-only package?

    I'm suddenly no longer able to get HDNET, HDTHR, and TNTHD. I get the message that these are subscription channels that I have not purchased. I have the HD-only package. What gives? Thanks.
