I didn't see: FX AMC Nick

It's a 722, but sounds like it too is just flaky. Haven't reset the box yet, so maybe I will do that and just see how it behaves.

The PiP seems to have stopped resizing when I go into the guide. It is holding the original picture resolution. Has been working just fine previously, was there a recent update that broke the functionality?

I guess the question is, why wouldn't you? What is the difference between HD Ultimate and HD Essentials now? To answer your question, I haven't yet. I keep expecting Dish to announce something that will make me want to stay with HD Ultimate.

Is that the Navy's idea of "we'll just give it a little push for ya". :D

I just upgraded to HD on a 722, and I have a big lip sync issue on the KungFu channel. :D Sorry, just injecting a bit of humor...

It would be nice if they could include a QAM tuner on that input. Like the OP, I too have my basic sub from the cable, which for a small fee also gives me local HD. Would be really sweet if I could feed that to my DVR and map it down and record it.

Well you won't be able to drop the HD, less you incure the $5.98 HD enabling fee, which means you have an HD receiver but are not subscribing to any HD channels. But, the ~$6 is cheaper then the $20 for HD subscription. So the lowest I can see is AT100 only + HD enable fee + DVR fee + tax...

I was wondering about that too, it says it will upconvert SD on the TV1 output. Is this a new feature over the 622?

Thanks for the info Walt. Dfergie, be nice if you can try out a quick test by switching between the tuners and seeing if you can rewind the buffer. Thanks.

Thanks BFG.

Was wondering if both tuners continue to buffer their feeds to the HDD when switching between tuners. Say I'm on tuner 1, does tuner 2 continue to buffer, so that when I switch over to tuner 2 I might be able to back up feed and watch what was going on that channel while I wasn't there? The...

You mention a "List", where is this list? Was wondering when the San Francisico area might get HD LiL?

It will be interesting to see how much the CSRs will mess up this deal. I bet a lot of callers will get CSRs charging only $99 for any equipment upgrade to vip622.
