New success at resetting my VIP 922 - return of TV2 on Solo/PiP mode... reset the Factory defaults, hard-booted with at least 1 min pulled-plug at least 3 times, reset to Shared View On and Solo/PiP, and my TV2 has come back to life. Of course - having to reset all of the channels, etc, but...

I of course have done both - several times. And Solo/PIP with working TV2 does not come back.

Same here on my 922 refusing to go back to Solo/PIP Same issue here - my 922 refuses to go back to Solo/PIP (my preferred setting.) My 922 hardware has been fairly flawless - it is just a software issue, and hoping it will be resolved by S119.

In case you haven't seen elsewhere, make sure you check Settings (Yellow) > Updates, to make sure you set the update time for some early pre-dawn hour, when you have the unit powered off, and when you don't have anything set to record. You should get the update, if Dish has set all of the...

Same here. S118. Hopefully some or all of the bugs of S117 were fixed.

Just to connect this thought - I did have the time tonight to scan the Hopper Zone, and sure enough... in two posts, including this one, I see that this bug has survived the 922 software right into the Hopper. (Hey, the name kind of works with this use.) Dear Dish Engineers: Please fix this in...

Yep - still the same 922. The real question in my mind is - does the Hopper also have this problem from its ancestor (922,) or did they fix that for the Hopper? (I haven't done a thorough scan for this on the Hopper threads.)

I think I have reasoned out why they have been so dodgy about this. I think it all has to do with monthly recurring fees. They simply get more monthly money in the long run from a Hopper/Joey(s) than they do from a 922. There were some technical issues that they could have / should have ironed...

Should we have a contest to see what is done first? BBAH or Return of DishSupport.com? :coffee

Thanks for the response, Matt. However, what I was aiming for was not conjecture or comparison, but something that would say - hey, this is basically what we are seeing create this scenario of a near-dead 922 with high fan noise. It was my hope that there would be some specifics that could be...

Dish DIRT members - you know, while I haven't had this problem, it is clear that several experience this same thing. Is it possible to give the official, technical explanation of what this failing is, and why it goes bad? Is there a chip that is faulty, or something that overheats, or what? Or...

So, Matt G.... or anyone from DIRT ... what happened to the support forums at DishSupport?

Noticed recently that there are (currently) no more FREE On Demand movies, as there have been in the past. Lowest priced On Demand movie is $2.99. Is there a new policy that has not been announced? (Or which may have been, and I didn't see it?)

...I do give DISH that they are the provider that chooses to be low-cost / high-volume, and they actually get a fair amount of kudos for what they *do* deliver in that scenario, which, I'm sure, is crushing. But I am not sure that it *helps* to make Dish think they are delivering on things that...

On the first bit, I should have added that even if you name something in a Folder, if you are looking at your DVR contents with 'No Folders', all you see are the original titles from the Guide, and nothing to indicate something is in a folder view. Oh well. OK - yeah, I figured you might...

On the 922, looking at DVR contents with 'No Folders' (Green) you can 'Edit All' (Blue) and check the item recorded. Then check the recording you want. Then you can rename it, but you can put it in a Folder (My Folders) that you can name and rename or later delete as you please. Then you can...

Yeah, thanks. Very detailed, and nice to have the detail. The only question I have is where you say 'HDMI cables' with an 's', and makes me think more than one cable involved? Or just a typo? At any rate, yes- I have written that for someone else, and just thought so many of the detailed...

Tom, I'm going to paste in something I just wrote to someone on DBS Talk... I do not have the constant rebooting issues, and all is "normal" with my 922 after software upgrade to S116, although it still has its many GUI issues, and lack of BBMP, which are evidently of lower-rank importance to...

Mike, While you are waiting until the new cable arrives (I think that is a critical piece to have an HDMI cable consistent the whole way, so I like that thought,) I would also say that you could try plugging the AC power directly into non-filtered AC. Some circuitry for those devices like you...

Mike, I'm not saying anyone could definitely help, but... perhaps you could provide just a little more information, then there might be people on the forum that would recognize a cause, or offer other trouble-shooting ideas. For instance: - Could you mention whether you have an HDMI cable...

Also have S116 - no BBMP icon on menu. No release notes yet on Dish Support. Agreed - likely, when they put something up, it will say something about "stability" fixes.

I want to know if Hopper and Joey have the same awful "Favorites" (Quick Clicks - Green button) functionality that the 922 has, or if they improved it.

Can anyone who has anything other than a 922, tell me what their guide listing for next Monday's Alcatraz says? Does it say "Episode 4" for you, and what Dish receiver model # or DVR do you have? I liked Alcatraz, and noted that it has some production personnel from LOST. I'm doing research on...

It seems to me that the BBMP on a DVR is not much more than having ability to watch the streamed content of the extra package of channels that come with BBMP, something that can be accomplished with just setting some timers to record them. And it also seems to me that the BBMP certainly does not...

Ah... found it... SatelliteGuys @ CES - YouTube Go to approx. 8:15 to the end, to see specifically on the 922, but the entire video is worth watching. Thanks, Scott. I'm not sure his answers really covered everything, but I guess they will never come out and say the 922 was too difficult to get...
