When I put a show on hold because I get a phone call and leave the room for 20 minutes, for example, the picture never defaults into a screensaver mode. I have two large plasmas, and the oldest one from 2010 gets image retention (Samsung 8000 series). This scares me. My 612 used to burn the...

Am I missing something? If I have 10 Louie's recorded and I finish one and want to go to the next, the HWS defaults to the main DVR, making me have to go through all the button pushed just to get to the next show? Is there a workaround that is lurking somewhere out there? Is this truly...

I have tried using the typical links using the web address on my BB and I cannot connect to Dish/Sling to see my DVR. Any hints, or is the mobile app just not available?

When the HDMI out on my 622 was having solid connectivity issues, I asked about it in this forum and was referred to a company that made cables where you screwed in a small screw into the hole over the HDMI port, and then a matching metal doo-hickey on the top of the HDMI cable would snap over...

So I'm watching 60 Minutes west coast HD on Tuner #1 while "The Wire" is recording on Tuner #2. I missed about five minutes of the Bill Romanowski segment and come back to rewind to the beginning, and when I get back to the start and hit Play, all audio is gone. Video is fine, and audio on...

I'm sitting here watching the U.S. Open on ESPN-HD for 3 hours and the picture is really, really good. At noon the coverage switches to NBC, so I go to KNTV-11-HD, and the HD SUCKS!!! I can't believe the motion artifacts and lack of focus; any movement and everything just goes totally blurred...

Watched Rave for the first time on my brand new 622 last night (Dave Mathews Band from Central Park). Pretty good video, but disappointing audio. I use the optical digital link to my Yamaha 5.1 receiver, going to Infinite fronts and center and BA rears, with a wonderful Infinite 150W 10" sub...

Scott, it's been since November 13 if memory serves that Dish said that they recognize the problems with the right-side pixelating and audio-sync problems. Is their any scuttle-butt on where things are now? My 942 has never acted up more than it has now, what with the audio-sync issue that I...

Anybody know a code that will work? I have a new 55" and the search feature on the 942 remote brought up nothing that will work. Granted, this is just a temporary need until my Harmony 880 comes, but still.....

I just hooked up my new (leased) 942, and I've kept my 721 with 70 hours of recordings on the PVR. I have been assured by Dish tech group that I do not need it to be hooked up to a dish to be able to play recordings off the hard drive, but that doesn't seem to be the case. When I turn on the...

Last night my 721 started experiencing problems with the 30 second skip/10 second rewind tools. It's only skipping forward approx. 15 seconds, and it is only skipping backwards 1 second, and won't let you skip further back than that, so every time you hit the rewind button, it starts again...

Came home last night and all my local channels are now gone; my distant networks are still there and working fine. I have had Comcast basic cable for some time run into my Yamaha receiver so that we could get some FM reception, so I split that and put the other line into my 721 and ran a cable...

I live in the S.F. Bay area, and have had Dish since '97, with distants grandfathered in since the beginning. After getting "the letter", I've been wringing my hands trying to figure out which I want in my heart of hearts. I love being able to watch 10:00 p.m. "primetime" shows at 7:00 p.m...

Wanted to record a movie on TCM the other night, and I was a couple of minutes into it, so I pressed the record button and up popped several options about the timer. I picked "Record entire event" and entered it, and it started recording. Next morning I go into the family room and the record...

My dad just got a new Sony 34" LCD flatscreen HDTV, and he had an old 301 that Dish upgraded to an 811 (due to my coaching). The install people from The Good Guys said that they could install the 811, so my dad declined the $25 install charge from Dish. Well, now the fun begins. I go over to...

I got back from out of town and I noticed that the recordings I made have goofy titleing problems, almost like the old days. For example, last night's Deadwood, which was recorded with the standard 1 minute early, 3 minutes long default, was showing the title as the show on AFTER Deadwood. I...

I asked a couple of weeks ago about the last software update, and didn't it have some new enhancement that spun down the HD when it wasn't doing anything? Mine's spinning like a madman 24/7, and it sounds like a lathe in a machine shop now. I already returned one a year ago for that same...

Wasn't L1.15 or 1.16 supposed to let the hard drive spin down when it wasn't doing anything? My third 721, which I've had for almost a year now, was as quiet as a church-mouse, but I've noticed that it's gotten noisier and noisier, with the sound being the hard drive spinning 24/7. It's...

We haven't heard from you for a while on this subject. Are you still using a software version that the huddled masses did not get? We're still pretty upset out here in "give it to Mikey, he'll eat anything"-world. Seriously, what's up in Colorado these days?????
