    Pixelation when using skip forward/reverse

    I have this exact same problem - and it only started about a month or so ago. It also does it to me when i rewind. Did you find out anything about this? Maybe due to the software upgrade? BTW, I have a 510.

    Tree has grown into the way of the dish

    Another update. I raised my dish about 3 feet, and it looks like that's solved the problem (haven't watched too much tv lately though, so i'm not totally sure). One funny thing though happened - When i moved my dish, i couldn't get a signal when it was pointing in the same direction as it...

    Tree has grown into the way of the dish

    I'm not paying them a cent to fix something that they did wrong in the first place (they already screwed me out of $25 a few months ago for something else).

    Tree has grown into the way of the dish

    Just an update - I called Dish and they wanted to charge me $99 to come out and move the dish. I told them yeah right. I am going to attempt to move the dish myself. If it's a major pain, them I am going to cancel service and sign up with directv. I made sure last night on the phone that I...

    Tree has grown into the way of the dish

    Thanks for all the replies. The dish person did install it when the tree was there, but it was in winter when there were no leaves on it, and it was 1.5 years ago (the tree has grown since then). I will try what 'dish dude' suggested, and monitor during wind. It's really bugging me though...

    Skipping - Only on first hour of recordings

    I think my problem is the result of one of my trees growing so big now that it's in the path of the dish. See my other thread.

    Tree has grown into the way of the dish

    I posted in another thread that lately i was getting skipping, and that I thought that it was the result of the latest software update. However, I was outside last night and noticed that one of my trees has grown so big that the branches and leaves are directly in the path of the dish. I'm...

    Skipping - Only on first hour of recordings

    I noticed that on my 510, my recorded programs have been skipping lately. Also, if i'm watching a program delayed (ie., not live, but not recorded) it skips. I figured out that I got the new software download recently. Has anyone else had skipping problems after the new software?

    One receiver, 3 tv's

    Yeah, the issue isn't a long run - it's pretty short. The issue is that I'm splitting the signal 3 times.

    One receiver, 3 tv's

    No one knows if putting an amplifier after the dish receiver will help the signal?

    One receiver, 3 tv's

    I searched for half an hour, couldn't find anything. I recently got a tv tuner card for my computer. I want to connect my receiver to the card so I can watch tv on the computer. The tv the receiver was connected to and the computer are on different levels of the house, so, right now, i have...

    2 510's - 2 dvr fees?

    So to have 2 510's, it costs $20 a month, whereas if i lease a 522 for $200 through dish'n it up, that will cost me $5 a month? So I would save $15 a month? ...just trying to figure out if it's better to have 2 510's, or a 522.

    2 510's - 2 dvr fees?

    If I get a second 510, should I have to pay $5 more for another dvr fee? I know I will have to pay a $5 lease fee, but am wondering about the dvr fee. I am already paying a dvr fee for my current 510. In short, to get a second 510, will it cost me $5 or $10 more per month? TIA btw, love...
