    record light

    today the red record light was on indicating that there was a recording in progress. Nothing was being recorded! I had to manually start a recording and then stop it in order to get the light to turn off. Anyone else see this?

    The (un)OFFICIAL missed recordings thread

    Had a daily recording go missing. A show my wife set to record the same time every weekday. Timers reports that it recorded. When the recording started and when it stopped. The show just is nowhere to be found. Not a good start with this new unit.

    Sling on 922 stinks!

    I gave up TV2 out from my 622 to go with the sling player on the 922. I find out today that I have to give my kids my user password and account info to allow them to view programing. My old sling player was a direct connection. Now I have to go through dishes web site to view sling. And Give...

    OTH Dishpass recordings

    I read on another site that it may not be possible to use the dishpass recording manager to record future shows if they orignate from my local OTH HD provider. This is even when I subscribe to local channels. Is this true? If so why am I the only one that find this to be a poor design choice...
