    Weight overheating.

    It's open in the front and back. I can sit a small fan on top of it would that work? I really have no other place to put it. I'm actually getting a new one. The hard drive crashed. Not sure if it was from overheating or the fact that I have had it for a little over fours years and two moves.

    Weight overheating.

    I have a small entertainment center and a vip722. I have maybe an inch on each side for air and that's about it. If it's on for a while the top of it gets pretty hot. My only other option is to sit my 42in tv on top of it but it weights 70 pounds. The edge of the tv base would hang over a bit...

    HDMI 612 Issue

    Still can't figure out why when ever I plug the 50ft hdmi cable into the dish box it shuts down or locks up. I just figured I wouldn't get picture or sound if the cable run was too long but I do get picture and sound but the box just locks up. Can't even push system info on the front of the box...

    HDMI 612 Issue

    It's the cable. I called dish about another issue and when I had him on the phone I asked him about the hdmi cable. He said I'm probably losing the signal and the dish box is locking up on me because it can't send the signal that far. Now I need a booster. Where can I find one cheap?

    Anyone have success downgrading to 612 receiver?

    I just did this I just moved and switch from having two vip 722 and a 510 to one 722 and two 612 getting rid of the 510 altogether. I have 3 hdtv's and moved into a three story house so it was easier to get two 612 instead of trying to run cable upstiars. I have the 722 in the basement family...
