    The 622 is a piece of junk.

    The 622 is a piece of junk - not mine. I've had my 622 for almost a year. It was a little flaky at first but the software upgrades have fixed those. I run 2 TVs off of it in dual mode. ... I have been happy with the 622 and to me it seems to be much better than the 942. The latest software...

    622 Closed Caption Goes Wacko

    Everyday late in the afternoon or during the evening the VIP622's ClosedCaption (CC) goes wacko. The box has to be rebooted to correct the problem.

    How has your 622 performed for you?

    After 2 weeks since the 622 install, it seems to be working fine. Timers seem to be working fine and none have disappeared; audio sync seems to better than the 942... The only re-occurring problem I have seen is that Closed Caption (CC) goes flaky at night; the next morning CC is fine again...

    Dish 1000 upgrade and VIP622 installed today around noon time. Everything went pretty smooth. So far so good. The new HD channels look great. Have not tried the OTA scan yet. All smiles right now.

    Why are you upgrading?

    Bought a HDTV to watch HD. The upgrade from a 942 to a 622 will provide the best opportunity to enjoy the most HD available. Formerly was a Time Warner customer for many years, but their service has continued to decline. Join Dish w/ a 942 in June '05 and have been extremely happy. Would...

    942 - Closed Caption not working at times

    Sometimes closed caption stops working. It appears to be whenever I have been view an OTA channel and then swith back to a satellite channel. CC is enabled through the 942. To get CC back I have to reboot the 942. Any ideas? If not, is there an easier way to get CC back without rebooting.
