I did PM a DIRT rep, Becki, and I haven't had a response since I gave my account # and phone. I was waiting to hear from them. I hope that the request doesn't get lost. I sure could use the use of those EHD's. Thanks for the responses........... Lyle

I haven't had the pleasure of trying to request the DIRT contributors yet, so I don't know how to contact them. Do they monitor this thread? Thanks for the suggestion. Lyle

I just replaced my 2nd Hopper w/Sling in my Family Room. ( The EHD recordings were ok with the 1st Hopper/Sling ) I have another Hopper in my Living Room. In living room and family room I also have EHD's that have recordings from the 722's that were there before the Hoppers. Each are 2T. I can...

That is true, but the dropping sound is nil. Until there is a better fix, it's a lot better actually listening to virtual surround, with no dropping, than to listen to nothing and trying to skip around for the sound to come back on. Either way, I'm sure there will be a fix in the near future...

Until I get a confirmation from Dish tech reps, I think I have gotten somewhat of a fix for this problem, at least a fix for what I was experiencing. With the help of the Dish people, I tried some things they suggested and came up with something that seems to be working. I went into the "Audio"...

I just got 2 new Hoppers with Sling a couple of days ago. I have been having trouble with the sound dropping out when I am watching regular broadcast and recorded programs. I have Opti-Audio cable from Hopper to a JoyTech Control Center 240C to an Onkyo AV receiver. I had no trouble before I had...

I have NO Minneapolis local channels on Dish at all. Called Dish and they said that MInneapolis transmission is whacked for some reason. Hope to have it fixed within 24 hours. We will see?

Add me to the list too. Just bought 3D television after Mits DLP gave up the ghost. Please! Like

Just for information. I got everything back to normal. The reason, I presume, I was having problems with the Installation Summary indicators was that I was doing a "Check Switch" in DUAL MODE on the receiver. I changed the receiver to SINGLE MODE and did the check and the problem was over. I...

I just installed a replacement 722 for one that crashed it's hard drive. Didn't have any problems with the port assignments on the old one. I have included a picture of the new summary and the one on the right ( Satellite Input 2 ) has the problem, I think. What could have caused the problem...

Right........I second that opinion too! We can really be thankful for ALL of the helpful members on this team. Didn't mean to forget them at all. Thanks again..........Good Night All!

Good to have Scott around to calm the stormy seas once and a while. Nice to have this forum to help with the problems too. Standing ovation for Scott......................................
