I haven't done done this with my 622, but when I had the older 922(or was it 925?) I did a comparision between HDMI and component. The results were basically that with HDMI, the picture was slightly clearer(more "crisp"), but you loose a little bit of the color compared to component. The color...

It's showing up on mine...

You'll need to get all new equipment.

Same here.

As with others in this thread, with my locals, NBC looks the worst. FOX, CW, ABC and CBS all look great. NBC is not terrible, but you can definantly tell it doesn't look as good as the others. Keep in mind, this is all OTA for me.

Set up a Timer for that kind of stuff, rather then a Dishpass. Timers can be set for only one channel, and also new, once, all, mon-friday, etc. Timers are much better for things like that, and especially TV series.

I've had my 942(which I purchased used from someone) for about 8 months, and have never really had a single problem with it.

Yes, don't use ff, but skip forward. IT skips ahead 30 seconds, and the skip back is 10 seconds. If you press the skip forward button as soon as the show goes to commercial, usually pressing it about 5-6 times will get you directly to the when the show starts again.

Before you go thorugh the throuble of doing that, just make sure the antenna cable is plugged into the right thing on the back of the 622. It most likely is, but just check. The reason I say that, is because there has been a few posts on here where the installer put the cable onto the UHF...

Their not going to "fix" it. They did it on purpose, to make more money.

Well to purchase the 622, it would be $499, the 211 would be $234(prices are from www.dishstore.net ). To lease the 622, you would pay an upfront fee of $200, and then get $20 off your bill for 10 months resulting in it being free. The 211 would be either $49 or $99 to lease. If you purchased...
