    811- frame rate problem; video output stuck in "slow motion"

    I contacted Dish Network "Tech Support" about this issue via email. They asked for my receiver specifics; rcvr id, smart card id; software rev, bootstrap rev, etc. I gave that to them along with my TV model and a link to this forum so they would know others are experiencing the same problem...

    811- frame rate problem; video output stuck in "slow motion"

    In response to Kevin's question... I have calibrated my TV using the Video Essentials DVD. DVD's look great on my TV, but that is expected as I am calibrating the TV to the Component input from the DVD player. It would be interesting to see if the TV calibrated differently if I had a DVD...

    811- frame rate problem; video output stuck in "slow motion"

    I use the 480P mode because this is the mode that looks decent on HD viewing and good on SD viewing. In 1080i mode, the HD looks a little better but for some reason my SD viewing is too "soft" and doesn't look as good. This may just be a characteristic of the behavior of the 811 with my Sony...

    I just got my 811 about two weeks ago. A couple of times now I have seen what I think is a bug in the 811's video driver. It has happened twice; once while watching Discovery HD and once while watching TNTHD. I will notice a a brief moment of partial pixelation, then the receiver will...

    Is your 811 not that "clear"? + Poll

    I have the 46" Sony 500 rear projection TV. If I set my 811 to output 1080i, then my SD channels look a little too "smooth", or perhaps not clear as you say. But if I set my 811 to 480p, then my SD channels look good. The unfortunate part is that using the 1080i setting on the 811 makes the...

    Dish Network 811: Device Codes for Onkyo

    Onkyo Device codes Yes, I see the 2642, 2660, 2662, and 2678 listings. These did not work for controlling the Power ON/OFF for my Onkyo 601 receiver. 2642 worked for controlling volume

    Dish Network 811: Device Codes for Onkyo

    I am trying to control my Onkyo A/V Recevier (SR601) using my Dish Network 811 remote control. So far I haven't found a device code that controls the Onkyo's power ON/Off function. 2642 works for volume control, but I would like a code that will power the A/V receiver on and off AND control...
