    922 obsolete?

    I switched to E* from D* with the 1 free year special last summer and got a 922. I decided to switch back to D* and what's interesting is that E* sent me an email saying my 922 was obsolete, so they will send me a return envelope for my smart card, but I won't need to return the 922... Is the...

    922 Stuck in Slingbox Mode

    So...does that mean it works as a real DUO receiver now? ie. It can output to another TV?

    922 Stuck in Slingbox Mode

    Wow! That was it... thanks! Any idea how I got into Duo mode, or why that's even an option on the 922??

    922 Stuck in Slingbox Mode

    My 922 is "stuck" in slingbox mode. That means I can't use PIP or swap tuners. I can tell because when I watch live TV, I can only access tuner 1 and the background tuner icon in the upper right hand corner is blue. Plus the blue light is on the front of the 922. I've tried to connect and...

    Slinbox is offline

    I can't access my 922 from my android phone or dishnetwork remote access. I verified my broadband connection is "ok" and tested the connection via the menu which passed. Via remote access the screen for live TV just says "Slingbox is offline". Everything was working as recently as this past...

    where is the free android slingplayer app?

    Is that the Dish Remote Access App? It will include slingplayer capabilities? If I go ahead and create my mobile account now... will I be able to get the free version later? I've been waiting to setup my mobile account because I wanted to be sure and get the android player free.

    922 Screen Saver?

    Do I have to do anything to turn on the 922 screen saver? I was watching a recording, paused and walked away. When I came back an hour later it was still paused without a screen saver.

    Directv Going To Lease Only On 3/1/06

    I'm sure D* isn't going to shut off the mirror fees for those who own, that would be a large chunk of monthly income. But I'd like someone to verify that's the case.... And what happens if I am able to buy something off of eBay after 3/1....will I still be charged a mirror/lease fee when I...

    Directv Going To Lease Only On 3/1/06

    Here's the big thing that I see being "changed" with this program: Today I can return my DVR (which cost me the same as their "lease" program..... Free) and end my commitment, starting 3/1/06 that options goes away and I will have to pay the prorated cancellation fee!

    hr10-250 "f" version software

    This is the first thing I did when I got my HD DVR. I wanted to see how much better HD really was so I'd pause the picture and switch between 480i and 1080i. The difference was "noticeable" but not as much as I had expected and hoped. This was a very qualitative experiment of course, no hard...
