    Average 622/722 Temperature thread, Is your's Hot?

    Wondering if I should be worried - since I am having problems with the 622DVR whenever my system records (it becomes sluggish during recording and watching another show and stays sluggish after the recording). It only gets fixed by holding the power button down for the soft reset. My temps are...

    622 DVR problems

    Hey all - we have had a 622 DVR for a few years now and started experiencing problems with it a few months back. Essentially, every time we record and try to watch a show at the same time, the 622 becomes extremely sluggish. Changing channels results in 15-20 seconds of black screen every...

    Dish Programming Changes (Effective August 1st)

    Forgot to mention - I am now thinking of moving to the Gold 250 programming with the $10 savings I just got (so net result will be nil I think) - does anyone still have a chart that shows the difference between the 3 levels? I currently have Silver and am thinking with Hockey season coming back...

    As a long time subscriber to the Platinum HD package (along with the Classic Silver 200) package - I called and inquired about getting it now for free (effective August 1). I was told that it was "only for new subscriber". When I asked how long the "new subscribers" would get the Platinum HD...

    No longer picking up Sat 129 after storm last week

    We had a severe storm about 10 days ago, and since then, I have lost about 1/2 of my HD channels in the Sacramento area. I did a basic scan and see that I am no longer picking up Sat 129. Called Dish and they are sending out a tech on Wednesday for a fee. Bah. My question is - is their a...

    CBS 13 Sacramento HD....

    I also had a problem with Fox OTA (since E doesn't offer them in HD in Sacramento). It happened only a few times and not nearly as long as KOVR has effed the shows up. I wonder how much really the timeshifting effects the broadcast on KOVR?

    CBS 13 Sacramento HD....

    Appears that its a problem with KOVR itself. Made NCIS last night and CSI last Thursday unwatchable in HD. Even to those with OTA antenna's.

    Dish Network Channel Chart - all RSNs in HD listed?

    Thanks - that's kind of what I was thinking. I know Comcast's purchase of the majority of FSNBA doesn't help, either. :(

    Dish Network Channel Chart - all RSNs in HD listed?

    Sorry - newb question here... Looking at EKB: Dish Network Channel Chart (Unofficial), I see both FSNBA HD and Comcast Sportsnet West (Sacramento) HD have a place reserved for them (channels 369 and 359)... The question is..is there a usual timeframe in which E* makes these channels available...
