    DISH / Blockbuster Announcement Discussion Thread!

    You did call me out and I am glad you did. I don't know what I was thinking when I wrote that. I am one of those movie freaks that actually has both netflix and blockbuster because I enjoy some harder to find movies that aren't always available from both services. I have the 2 queues set up...

    DISH / Blockbuster Announcement Discussion Thread!

    Yes, exactly. For a while we had the 3 disc plan and it allowed me to assign 2 discs to my queue and 1 disc to the kids queue. I am assuming that these options will be retained when dish makes changes to integrate things, but you know the old saying about assuming things. Hopefully, dish will...

    DISH / Blockbuster Announcement Discussion Thread!

    I am a current bb customer with 2 out at a time. I have the ability to set up 2 queues, ie one for me and one for kids, and when my movie is returned they sent the next on my list and the same with the kids list, so I am assuming this won't change when they implement the new system and that you...

    I have also switched-out the usb cable and moved the connection from the rear usb port to the one of the front. Was able to get into my media and selected a show but when I pressed the play button it froze up again and went into a self restart.

    722 Problem with EHD

    I have unplugged both devices to no avail. Also detacheched and reattached the EHD cables. I decided to try to access it on Dish2 and was able to get the shows on the EHD to come up in a list. But as I was scrolling down the page the receiver reset again. I went back and tried that again on...

    722 Problem with EHD

    Whenever I go to my media the receiver is shutting down on its own and going through a reset. It is a wd drive and I've not had problems with it before. I had the 722 hd start acting up earlier this year and dish replaced it with another 722 but I've never had trouble with the external drive...

    61.5 Signal Loss

    Thanks for the information. As always, I am amazed at how quickly you can get a response. Apologies on the missing sd channels question. After posting my question I found that it had already been asked. I will take a closer look at the dish tomorrow when it is light to see if I can find a...

    61.5 Signal Loss

    On the signal strength, I live in a new subdivision carved out of a field and there are no trees anywhere near my house and the dish is on the roof with nothing visibly blocking the signal. Is it unusual to lose strength from only one of the three satellites when the setup uses the one large...

I have an eastern arc setup and have a good signal from both the 72 and 77 but am getting single digit signal strength on 61.5 and...

    Is there an antenna that will work

    I wasn't familiar with how to attach so it took me a little while to figure it out. Also, my earlier info didn't come from tvfool so the new info is a little different from the original post but the concept is the same -- located between two cities and trying to receive some of the...

    722 stopped reading external drive

    I was finally able to get around to trying your recommendation for resetting my internal hard drive and wanted to once again say "thanks" as it looks like this solved the issues and what you recommended was something I would never have come up with on my own. Fortunately all of my settings were...

    722 stopped reading external drive

    Last night my 722 showed a warning screen stating that my internal hd was corrupted and everything had to be deleted for my receiver to work. I unplugged for a few hours and then reset it and it came on again working properly. I immediately moved everything off the internal hd to the external...

    Corrupted HD on 722

    Wow. I am very impressed. In less than 10 minutes I got a reply from Dish. Mega kudos to Mary Catherine Brady. Before giving up and deleting, I unplugged the receiver for an hour or so and plugged back in with a reset. Very fortunate in that the receiver started without the error. I am in...

    Moved everything from an old entertainment center to a new one today and when I finished putting the components in and turned on the tv I get a "Warning" message from my 722 that says: "The content on your hard drive has become corrupted and will cause your receiver to function improperly...

    More Channel Moves (and a few Channel RUMORS.)

    Switched my Dad from Dish to Directv and had been debating whether or not to do the same before deciding to stay with Dish because I didn't want the hassle and enjoy the Dish receivers. However, removal of IFC would most likely push me over the edge to switch. Just my luck that one of few...
