    L627

    It is strange. After the overnight reboot, I confirmed it again this morning. The preference says it's still on 'Line, but the analog out is at the higher 'RF' level. Switching the preference from 'Line' to 'RF' and back to 'Line' cures it. The Dolby Digital/Toslink output isn't affected, just...

    L627

    Is anyone else having problems with the Dolby Digital preference changing after reboots with their 622/L627? I keep mine on 'Line', but every morning it has defaulted back to 'RF', with it's higher output levels. However, the menu screen erroneously says it's on 'Line'. I have to set it to 'RF'...

    Shows on EHD are erased after watching! Known problem?

    This has happened to us several times in the recent past. We're running a Western Digital WD7501AALS SATA 750 gig in a Monsoon Pro EZQN27300 enclosure, with the Oxford 934 Firewire/USB2.0/eSATA bridge. In our instance we were simply sifting through some shows looking for a specific episode, when...

    Uplink Activity Report - 1/14/2009 1:02am - 418 changes

    Forgive me if this has been answered, but what are the chances of the Springfield MO locals going up on the new 129 sat once it's parked in it's proper slot after testing? I can receive all of the locals OTA, but on windy days it's marginal. and it would be nice to have them via sat as a backup...

    VIP 211 and Nickolodeon Audio This Morning

    Wow! Good catch! Yes, it was set to Alternate. Not sure how it had been changed, as the Sony learning remote can't access that function, but thanks for the great suggestion. After watching the local stations completely bungle their 5.1 audio for the past year, I guess I'm just pre-disposed to...

    VIP 211 and Nickolodeon Audio This Morning

    I have the strangest thing going on this morning. We have our niece staying with us for a few days, and this morning she wanted to watch Sponge Bob Squarepants. Watching on the 211, I noticed that the audio level was low, and upon turning it up, I realized I was hearing only the M&E (Music and...

    Pink screen again

    I don't know if this is related to what you guys are experiencing, but since the new software update last Wednesday (11.19.2008) on my 622, I've been getting pink AND green screens. I have an HDMI switcher that switches back and forth between my 211 and my 622. When I switch from my 211 to my...

    What happened to Dish's "tech support"?

    I hope you realize you are coming dangerously close to letting all the smoke out of the unit when you do that. (DUCKS)

    Poll, Do you have your NEW smartcards yet?

    Received them yesterday, (November 3rd) just finished installing them on the 622, 211, and the 301.

    Speed Hd

    That's how I watched it, too. I think the only Dish SD channel that looks worse is my local FOX SD feed. Even if F1 IS shot in SD, if we were getting Speed HD, at least the broadcast chain degradation shouldn't be as bad. I'm watching on a 50" Pioneer, and I had a hard time telling the team...

    Pro Bowl on Fox looks upconverted 16:9

    Because I'll watch ANYTHING as long as it's HD :-) I watched some of the Pro Bowl OTA here, and it was an obvious 16:9 SD broadcast. The Super Bowl looked very nice OTA here last weekend, though. Thankfully, our Fox affiliate has no sub channels to cripple their main channel. . We had a Super...
