Mine does something similar. About once a week randomly, it will freeze whatever is playing back, or the guide or whatever is on screen. After about 30 seconds, it reboots on its own. I'll probably get it replaced after my current backlog is shortened. Mike Vip622/D500(110/119)/D500(129)...

I've noticed that my picture is not centered on my HD34 dish monitor with my Vip622 PVR using HDMI output. It's shifted noticeably to the left. The left bar is 1/2 the width of the right bar. The channel numbers in the guide are off the left side as well. Using the Cmp input, it's perfectly...

A friend just had directv installed with a dual receiver DVR. The installer wanted an extra $65 to run the coax for the 2nd receiver connection to the DVR. I'm with Dish and they ran dual cables for mine without any hassle. Is charging extra for the 2nd receiver connector normal with DirectV...

It stayed at 1-2 programs in the guide until about 4:00pm, when the entire 9 day guide popped into view. Interesting...It normally loads, if it's going to, in about 15 minutes. But, it's back now and just another in the string of on-going 921 oddities. Always wondering, is it a system problem...

I've had the no info problem beyond the current one or two programs since the L276 program downloaded. I've tried the usual, power button, power cord, and smart card reboots, and nothing has helped. In the past, when this problem has occurred (except for version L273), the EPG was restored...

Voom Channels have problem, Dish is working on it. Dish HD Technical Support said they've got a problem and are working on restoring the Voom Channels. It would, of course, happen, the day after my 921 gets a software update. Power button, power cord, and finally smart card reboot, nothing...

I made an unsuccessful attempt to get a 942 and was told by the supervisor that they don't have a way to do that. I noted the ongoing software problems with the 921, that I was a longtime customer and was unhappy with it. I was told that they had no way to do an exchange for a 942. I advised...

Do you own your 921 or lease it? I own mine, fortunately or unfortunately.
