    622 Lost HDMI output

    I am posivitve mine was due to thermal cycling. It failed when I tried to power it on after turning it off overnight. I never touched it, and there were no vibrations (save the subwoofer). My cable put no weigth either as the HDMI connector went from the receiver up to the TV. The screw...

    622 Lost HDMI output

    My HDMI died as well (I got 6 weeks out of it). Unfortunatly, repeated calls to Dish, they simply refuse to replace it, blaming software. I cancelled service (component audio has always been out of sync, they know of this problem too, not even a hint of an ETA on that fix), and took the cover...

    622 hdmi

    622 DVR HDMI failure symptom?

    They will still tell you it is a software problem. Today was my last day of runaround with Dish, cancelled the HD service, took the cover of my 411 off to see the surface mounted HDMI Connector pulled up. Terrible design. I suggest you look at your connector and refuse the "software fix is...

    Who is having problems with HDMI with 211/411/622

    If you want to see the design flaw in my 411 receiver, here is a link to my blog. For a long time, I believed Dish regarding a mysterious "software" fix that was coming. Software can't fix an HDMI surface mount connector pulled away from the circuit board. I put up with out of sync audio on...
