Hey guys, I just switched to dish a few months ago and I am pretty pleased with the results. I use a Replay 5040 with my 322 reciever without any problems between the two units when dealing with compatibility. However I am having a problem accessing channel 100 for dish interactive. The...

I agree with the statements about name recognition. I'd like to see Echostar team up with ReplayTv to use their PVR's. The onboard USB, LAN, and Phone lines make it ideal for transfering mpeg2 files. Tivo has the same abilities as ReplayTV but needs some hacks for it to work. I don't want...

Thanks for the help. Here are my previous settings: Enable Fine Tuning: Yes Codeset: 0775 Send Enter: No Minimum digits to send: 1 Inter-action delay: 0300ms Response delay: 0300ms Pre-command delay: 0200ms Inter-command delay: 0300ms My new settings that do work when both...

322 Installed Today: ReplayTv- TV2 Conflict -Fixed- Read If Need 'Possible' Solution Hey guys, Just got the 322 reciever installed and I'm having some control problems with the replaytv. It switches channels fine when tv2 is off but when tv2 is on it does not control the channels correct at...

but technically... it should work right? just use replay on the tv1 IR.. blaster.. and I have a switch box so I can switch from tv1 or 2 to display on my tv in the living room. also have the output coax goto two bedrooms by using a splitter off the tv2 out For some reason I might want to watch...

Hey guys, I'm just curious on your thoughts. Should I get a 322 installed or the 522 to use with my ReplayTv 5040. It seems kinda odd to get a PVR since I have a ReplayTv but at the same time the hardware is free. I only get an extra 5 dollar a month charge to use the 522. The main...

Well I'm going to try out the 522 unit for 5 extra a month. I'll use the replay to record most of my stuff... maybe dedicate the replay to movies and the 522 to recording sitcoms or yoga. Even if it does have some problems with recording the updates will eventually fix it, and the actual...

Does Dish charge for a dual lnb unit the extra 5 bucks like the dvr?

My Dtv reciever is 3 1/2 years old. But I rarely use the functionality of the 'reciever' just replaytv. Is it possible to use a 522 with the replaytv, or should I just use a 322 with it?

Will a replaytv and 522 get along? Since I'm going to be locked into a 1 year contract I'm thinking of getting the pvr anyway. I've heard it has problems but it varies customer to customer. The problems are always in the recordings. So if I use my Replaytv to record. I could still use the...

Thanks for the tip. I am getting a single 311 unit installed on Friday the 11th. I only get a signal of 80-85 with my directv setup. I did install that one by myself without any tools except for a ladder and a drill. I was so tired I said to myself. "Heck it works and I'm dead tired...

I'm in Texas. Should I get the no contract without the insurance on the unit or go for the one year contract with insurance for free? I called the Dish 800 line and they set things up for next week.

reply Dish is about 10-15 a month cheaper.. and does have the local channels not available with Direct Tv. I have been using an IR blaster with my old DTV unit so that really isn't an issue. It can be tweaked.

Well I guess my question is more of a DVR inquiry. I've heard about a screensaver problem with the 322 and the replaytv units. I was possibly looking into getting a 301 or 311 but I'm not quite sure what the difference is between the two. I just need a basic reciever that gets along...

Hey guys, I'm switching from DirecTv to Dish Network and had a question about recievers. Since I'll be a new member I was offered the 522 dvr. I have researched and found SEVERAL instances of problems with the unit. Therefore I have decided to keep my ReplayTv unit. Which has worked...
