    Signal being lost during DVR playback??

    Greetings, Lately, when I am watching a recorded event, the signal gets lost. Not like the standard "part of this recording was lost, etc" message, but the message you get when you are watching live television and you lose the signal (push channel up or down on your remote, etc) I then have to...

    Heavy Pixelation, Unwatchable

    Greetings All, I have a 622 (I'm pretty sure, at work right now) and over the past few days I have come home from work and turned on my TV and the image is heavily pixelated. I mean it's literally a series of squares, so bad that the guide isn't even readable (on a 60" TV). A reboot fixed it...

    No Fx HD or SPEED HD here

    I have an old package from years ago called "America's Everything." And all the HD channels that have gone up I have received as well. However, I do not get speed or FX. I have just switched to the 129 satellite, maybe that has something to do with it? Any ideas?

    Thanks guys! I have a Dish guy coming on Sunday with a 1000.2 Dish ($50.00), and they will install and configure it. I assume (hope) the tech can decide wether or not I need to keep any dishes and/or aim them all for me. One last question, though: What are RSNs? Thanks for all your help, guys...

    HD Locals Listed, not coming in??

    Wow. That's a lot of info. I actually have two dishes, which I had installed a few years back to expand my HD package. I think one is pointed at 129, and the other at 65. Not sure though. I do pay the 5 bucks a month for locals. Not sure what a 1000.2 is. Also, if I move a dish to get the...

    HD Locals Listed, not coming in??
