    L3.58 Spotted!

    When something is a "partial phase", what does that really mean? The last updates were "full phase".

    622 L3.57 Software Release Notes

    Got the video stuttering with L.357. Skip back fixed it, but it is still there.

    Starting to get frustrated with 622. Wasn't as nice as it used to be...

    I constantly get these phantom recordings. Last night got it again, the red dot in the schedule and guide looks like it is being recorded - but they don't show up in the recorded show list. Over the last 3 weeks, I have probably had 10 of these. The wife is not pleased when it is one of her...

    Using TV1 remote as duplicate TV2 remote on 622

    I use a Harmony remote to control my 622 TV1 output. How can I program my Dish TV1 as a duplicate TV2 remote? Is this possible? Thanks!

    622 and DVD recorder

    Over the weekend, I bought the new Panasonic ES15 DVD recorder. I plugged it into the TV1 S-video output, but all my recordings are tall and skinny - only way to fix it is by doing "stretch" format. I also plugged it in to the composite on TV2, and seems to work pretty well. Do other...

    Returning dead 622 - void warranty after 10 days?

    I had a replacement 622 sent to me last Thursday - I was told to wait for a UPS return label to send the old one - I was also told that if I do not return it within 10 days of receiving the replacement - my warranty will be void. Didn't receive the label - called E* and they told me that they...

    Bad HDMI on my 622...again?

    I haven't seen many people complain about the HDMI output, or I can't find them. Also, when I am "testing" new products I would have expected not to need to pay $299 for the privilege and hassle!

    Bad HDMI on my 622...again?

    A couple of weeks ago, I turned on my TV that is connected to the 622 via HDMI to HDMI - it had a bright green tint to the picture. Swapped out the cables with HDMI to DVI, same thing. Plugged in my PC to the same cable to DVI TV input, no problem. Component out is ok. Bad HDMI output -...

    ViP 622 & 722 Running Bug Thread

    Here's one that I haven't seen come up before. Watching a recorded show, used the ff (x60) to skip through the commercials, stop when show begins, the playback skips about 3 minutes forward, so I rewind (slowly at 4x), stop at the beginning of the show and then it jumps about 3 minutes...

    Try a hard reboot - remove the power cord and wait 30 seconds and plug back in.

    ViP 622 & 722 Running Bug Thread

    Last week, I had a scheduled event to record Greys Anatomy. I check it was on the schedule to record on time. After it started it wasn't showing on the recorded items list. Checked the schedule and it had a red dot showing that it was recording but couldn't access it. Wouldn't do a manual...

    My 622 has already bit the dust.

    My HDMI also went bad over the weekend. Screen had a very heavy green tint. Component is ok. Dish is sending me another 622 - having the same problem thinking about all the recorded shows on the bad one.

    Signal distortion at top of screen - 622 setting?

    I have been experiencing some signal distortion at the top (and sometimes the left side of the screen) for HD channels that are showing SD programming. It seemed to happen more recently on NBC, FOX and UPN. I have a new Westinghouse 42" LCD, the tech support is telling me "The signal...

    ViP 622 & 722 Running Bug Thread

    Last night, I had Grey's Anatomy on my timer list. When the show came on it did not fire. Looked at the schedule, the timer event had disappeared. In the guide, it showed as being recorded (red dot). Looked at the recorded items list, nothing there. Attempted a manual recording, looked like it...

    622 hdmi

    I think my HDMI has just quit working - all I get is a heavy green screen. Switched out cables and attached my PC to the same TV inputs to check it wasn't my TV. Component is fine. Placing a call to tech support.
