    722: New HDD gives message about too many devices connected to USB port

    Probably less than 5 minutes each, and both formatted fine. (I do wonder why the procedure requires the reboot of the DVR, a bit irritating, but since I will only format a disc once - in theory - not that big of a deal). Don't forget to check to see if the sleep mode of the HDD has been...

    722: New HDD gives message about too many devices connected to USB port

    I think it may be an issue with multiple platters. What I had done is to order 2 identical 2 TB drives (Seagate STBV2000100), one I was going to use as an external drive for my computer, the other for my Dish DVR. What I have now found is that one of the HDD works just fine on the Dish DVR...

    722: New HDD gives message about too many devices connected to USB port

    I already have a couple of other HDD's I use with my 722, a 1 TB and a 1.5 TB. They are plugged into the front panel when they are used, and only one is plugged in at a time. I have no problem with either of these. I just got a new 2 TB (single platter) HDD (with an external power supply)...

    HDNet Movies on 2 channels

    Noticed the HDNet Movies are on 2 channels (130 and 383). As far as I can tell, they appear to be the same, so why are they in 2 places?

    DISHONLINE ISSUES

    TG2 - Thanks very much for posting this. I had not seen the thread on the dishsupport website (didn't know it existed) and your suggestion to enable DMZ PLUS on the 2wire for my 722 DVR has done the trick. I did this 3 days ago and so far I have no more disconnects and can always use my Sling...

    Broadband problem VIP 722

    Agreed, the problem is still there on L7.22. C'mon Dish, it has been more than 2 months that my sling functionality has been broken. Time to get it fixed!

    DO says not connected to Broadband, it is- but I discovered this!

    No, many of us are having the problem.

    DISHONLINE ISSUES

    I appreciate DIRT being willing to help, but just to be clear, this is NOT an issue with Dish Online or the Dish Remote Access app. It is an issue with the L721 software on the 722 DVR. The issue started happening right when that software was installed. Another way this error shows up (which...

    DISHONLINE ISSUES

    Lots of us are having this issue and it seems to have started with the L721 software on the the 722 DVR which came out in early October. It is clearly a Dish software bug and they need to fix it.

    Dish Online sucks...

    Scott is exactly right here. I'm pretty technical, and it has taken a bit to get it working. With the release of the 721 version of the software for the 722 DVR at the beginning of October, things went from tolerable to unusable. Every day the DVR thinks it is offline, although it does show an...

    722 now has Volume Leveling

    I just got updated to Version 6.76 on my 722, and one of the new features is the highly anticipated volume leveling (which is supposed to prevent drastic volume level changes between programming and commercials). It appears to be on by default (Menu - 6 - 7). However, with it on, the Mode option...

    New Web Sling Player v1.5.1.118 for IE - Apr 2011

    Everything works for me with the exception of seeing the Add-on in IE (running IE 8 on Windows 7). I see 1.5.1118 in Installed Programs and 1.5.1.119 in the About when right clicking in the player.
