PM please. Looking for info on a 2 Hop upgrade

Hi all, Thanks for the info. These two "features" were the reason why I haven't yet upgraded my 942 to a 622. Sounds like the 722 is very similar to the 622. Thanks for all the info. Larry

Hi all, Can anyone help answer these two questions about the 722: 1) The 622 has a HD Enablement fee, the 942 does not. Does the 722 have a HD Enablement fee? 2) How many OTA tuners does the 722 have (the 942 only had one). Thanks, Larry

I am leasing, but at the time I paid my $250 I was told that I only had to keep the HD pack for 12 months.

Just wondering...if I cancel the HD pack on my 942, but keep my SD-locals will I still be able to record HD OTA via the name-based timers?

I just installed a 942 receiver and am seeing the following issues with the HD OTA EPG data: The EPG data for Channel 13-1 appears on 13-2 (13-1 just says "Digital Service") The EPG data for Channel 6-1 appears on 6-2 (6-1 just says "Digital Service") Since the EPG data doesn't appear on...

Found it! Looks like it was added in L250. Can't wait to use this feature!

I was updating some of my timers and noticed that my 522 now has the "Keep at most X episodes" feature. This is great! I've been waiting for this feature for a long time. When did they add it? I'm running ver L251.

It's still better than paying $750.00 to use it for one year or less :)

The $250 is a one-time charge. There is no monthly lease fee. Basically, you will save ~$500 if you lease instead of buy.

Hi all, Here are some rumours that I picked up from the Dish/Direct reps at CES. For those of you still at CES, see if you can get confirmation on some of these: 1) The DirecTV MPEG4 offering in the summer will be a non-PVR receiver. The DirecTV MPEG4 PVR receiver will be released...

It appears that the reboot did not fix this problem. :mad:

I too am seeing this problem. My unit worked fine for about two weeks and then 2 days ago starting hitting this bug. Each day since then, the problem has gotten worse. Since the problem seems to get worse over time, I'm hoping that a reboot will clean up the issue for another two weeks. I...

I already run two UHF Pro remotes without any issues. You can buy another 522 remote (UHF pro 6.0) or an 811 remote (UHF pro 8.0). If you buy the 522 remote, make sure it is the UHF version (not the IR version). Make sure to set both remotes to the same UHF frequency.

The 522 and 811 receivers have a better range because they use they use the new "UHF Pro" remotes. The 501,508,510, & 721 use the original UHF remote which is not compatable with "UHF Pro".

More features from my wishlist: * Add the following new options to the timer setup screen Keep at most X episodes (for re-occuring timers, like Tivo) Keep for X days (like Tivo) * Ability to cut down the size of a completed PVR recording This feature would allow you...

The Dish NBR PDF doesn't give much information about Dish Pass. Does anyone know of any advanced search options for this feature? Three options that I would like to see are: 1) Specify multiple channels (more than 1, but less than all) 2) Wildcards in the search text 3) Words to reject...

Many Sacramento Kings fans are faced with a dilemma this season. The Kings owners signed a TV contract with the local cable company. The contract allows the local cable company to broadcast 100% of the Kings games exclusively on their new channel "Comcast SportsNetWest". The cable company is...

Mine is working. My SD locals show up as ??-00.

Yes, we're awake on the left coast... Version 1.48 fixes a couple of the annoying bugs, but there is still work to be done: * Fix dark output on S-Video output * Fix stretch modes so they don't cut off any of the picture * Increase size of favorites list * Change EPG to 16:9 (currently...

This is what I recall: end of Feb - update for 2-day cache EPG March - fix for dark pic on SD outputs, aspect ratio fix, EPG search Can anyone confirm?

Yes, this is a common 811 problem. I added the "real" (not mapped) channel numbers into my favorites list about a month ago and the channels have been there ever since. It's not a perfect solution, but at least the channels are there when you need them (even though the channel number is...

I had the same problem with my 811 yesterday. The good news is that I was able to break mine free. The bad news is that I'm not sure how I did it. I'm pretty sure that the only things I tried was holding down the power button for 15 seconds and unplugging the power a couple of times. It's...

I just re-checked the Yahoo site. The 5/15 sale was $6.4M. I guess my Excel spreadsheet moved the decimal point during the data import.

I agree. Looks like there is a typo on the 5/15 sale. At that price, the sale would be about $6.4M (not $64M). Check the data on another financial site (other than Yahoo). If it's incorrect on other sites, then it's a Yahoo typo. If it has the same mistake on other sites, then the data was...
