    Blind about 5.1 audio

    Thanks for the responses! I guess my real problem is that I mostly watch HD programming but not Premium channels like HBO or Stars. I thought if a channel was providing a movie like "Independance Day" it would be in 5.1 and not just stereo. I have always used the Toslink FO cable for my audio...

    Blind about 5.1 audio

    I feel like I'm blind when it comes to programming that contains 5.1 audio. Is the only way to find out is by looking at the programming guide? cCan a "Search" routine be set up and what would be the best to search for, 5.1, DD?

    Configuring the VIP722

    Is there a way to configure the VIP722 so that when I create a timer for a record operation, I can select which tuner I want it to record from, 1 or 2? TV-2 is sometimes in use by another member of the family and I don't want to interupt their viewing.

    1-2 second audio dropouts I just noticed this problem last night while watching the Smithsonian Channel. The audio would drop-out for 1-2 seconds and the picture would freeze for 15 - 20 seconds.

    VIP722 with picture and NO audio

    It's been a couple of more weeks and I haven't had anymore experiences of the problem. I thought I would have heard from one of you experts since then but I guess I'm the only one that had this problem. Glad it cleared up on it's own!! Thanks for lookin':)

    VIP722 with picture and NO audio

    I have searched this thread and couldn't find anything quite like the problem I have experienced. I have recently seen where my Panasonic shows a portion of screen all pixilated then it looses it’s picture and the DishNetwork VIP722 shuts down and re-boots. My wife has told me that she saw the...
