    iPad remote access screwed up

    Yesterday, the app showed no scheduled programs or timers (but the programs got recorded). Today the Screen for scheduled and the timers matches the screen for recordings. What's up?

    For record only new, why multichannel selection?

    Thank you both for replying. Where I live I can't even get a cellular signal let alone over the air signal. This time I will have to skip cattle's rain episode but the other channels who have cattle episodes this week I don't think will have rain, so I don't think a test will work. I guess...

    For record only new, why multichannel selection?

    When I set up a new timer to record only new, I often am asked to select from a group of stations (or select them all). Why does it ask me what stations I want the 922 to use? Is the original air date of an episode the date it originally showed on the first station? If so, then isn't a...

    5 things I ***LIKE*** about the DISH VIP 922

    I love my 922 and it was such a nice surprise on how they implemented scheduling conflicts. Since my husband picks his channels in the evening, I like to review the scheduling for future days and pick what I want skipped if I have 2 items for same time slot. With the auto rescheduling...

    Timer not scheduling

    No,"Suits" was not listed, but three other events were listed. So, I used the remote access app, and see that suits had two timers defined and deleted both of them, then went to Guide for next Thur and requested recording-- only this time requested "this event only", not the series. Suits now...

    Timer not scheduling

    I searched the guide and can see that "Suits" is in the guide for next Thurs. I requested series to be recorded. When I view scheduled items, "Suits" is not listed as scheduled--no matter what I try to do. Why is it not listed as scheduled and what do I need to do to get it scheduled?

    No info available

    Scott, your suggestion worked. This seemed to cause a download of the program guide. Thx...... When does the program guide update normally get downloaded. I've never had to turn my 922 off before to force an updated program guide download. Anyway, it worked and I am happy.....

    No info available

    For the last several days, my iPad dish remote access shows "no info available" under the tv episode icon for any items scheduled to be recorded on my 922. Why? Also, many of the timers weren't honored (even though the timers are still there) and no event is being scheduled. To get an event...

    Auto switching from live tv to watching a recording

    I request scheduled recordings and seldom see a notice of conflicts. For several months, if two scheduled recordings happen to be for the same time, I only get one of them recorded. Recently, since the latest firmware update, when my husband is watching live tv, my 922 quits live tv and my...

    Remember Me

    Does anyone know why the dish remote access app doesn't honor the remember me sign on option--forcing me to type my I'd and pswd when using this app on my iPad. Sling player mobile seems to remember.

    Remote access slinging to my ipad

    I just received a google alert re VIP 922 that Dish had enabled slinging to iPad from it's remote access app, so I tried it. The login screen is different and it works with a much better user interface than the virtual options that work on sling player mobile. It looks like there is also the...

    Sling player mobile vs dish remote app

    I have been using sling player mobile app for iPhone on my iPad, using the iPad as a remote for my 922 because I can see better with the white background. Today it shows I have 44 recordings, yet I know I have more. So I went to the dish remote app that I don't use as often because I have to...

    Need hair plugs after ripping my hair out (922 problems!)

    My 922 is set for single mode and yours is set for dual mode.. I am no expert--just an end user, but I didn't think the 922 yet supports dual mode. My second remote is located like yours in the bedroom but in my bedroom I have an old dish dvr. I do have my 922 "controlling" 2 TVs, one in the...
