Long time hopper 3 & 3 joeys customer. Lately I have a problem restoring the audio and video feed (HDMI) from hopper 3 to attached HDTV (Sharp 1080P). Has historically worked fine, now every time I turn off TV and come back in two or three hours when I turn on the TV there is no video or...

Just upgraded to Hopper3 after 3 years with hopper2. Old hopper2 was connected to my home network via a ethernet cable (hard wired to 5 port switch connected to Asus Router). Hopper2 worked perfectly with no connection problems. Installation tech set up new Hopper3 to connect via wifi. I...

Lately I have, found from time to time, what appears to be a part of the DVR cursor showing up on my TV screen. It appears on both live and recorded programs. At first I thought it was a problem with by LED TV, but rebooting the hopper corrects the problem for a while then it reoccurs. I...

OK, I sent a pm to a dirt member three days ago and got a reply the following day. Then I replied to the same dirt member with a follow up question. No response as yet. Today I sent another pm to a dirt member and checked back later to see if answered, no answer and when I checked my...

OK, I'm just about ready to move up to a hopper and two joeys from my 722. I still have a few questions that I haven't seen answered in this forum. First, my hopper will be in family room with big screen HDTV, one Joey will be in home office with HDTV and other Joey will be in Master Bedroom...

I have done some searching for the answer to my question, but haven't had much luck. I am seriously considering upgrading to a hopper from my existing 722. I have had the 722 unit for a LONG time and have learned a lot over that time about the setup. In reviewing the diagrams from DISH on...

Long time user - VIP 722. Recently having problem modifying start early/end late time. When I select timer and choose "options" the start early and end late fields are "greyed out" leaving "Protect event" as only available option. Any one else having this problem?

I seem to remember that for a long time I could schedule a program to record and end recording "one minute late" so as to not miss the next week previews. If there were another recording programed right after, the second program would simply start one minute late without problem. Now if I...

I know I should use the blue connectors for feeds running to the receiver. But, what about the feed(s) from the modulated output? Is it OK to use the lower cost crimp connectors for runs to remote locations?

I have been rewiring with rg6 for the remote locations. I want to split one run from the modulated output to serve two seldom used bedrooms. What splitter is best. I read some are 1.0 ghz and others are 2.4ghz.

Upgraded to a 722 from a 508 and 510 almost a year ago. Considering rerouting cables from dish to receiver. I have an opportunity to run cables from dish on roof into attic and down a chase to receiver. This would eliminate most outside cabling. Run would be about 25 feet longer than...

I use the HOME DISTRIBUTION cable output on my VIP 722 to distribute it's signal to multiple locations throughout the house. House is +20 years old and has rg59 coax runs to a dozen or more locations (Two story house with finished basement). There are 4 "main" cable runs, 2 to the attic, 1 to...

I am now working on my second 722 receiver. Experiencing same problem on replacement as I did with original. Often I watch programs I have "paused" and allowed time to build so I can skip through. Now I find I will suddenly get an error message saying saved time is lost and prompting me to...

I requested a Green tab with a Black 1 from Dish to convert a spare Vip 722 TV2 remote (6.3 IR/UHF PRO) from TV2 to TV1 UHF. I need to do this as I have two HD TV's. One is in a family room and connected with HDMI cable and one is in my office and connected with a composit cable run. Dish sent...

New to the 722 equipment but lots of experience with a 508 and 510. I just upgraded to the 722. Finally up an running fine after one no show install and the second installer knowing less than me about the equipment and not a clue how to interface with my home distribution wiring. But I managed...
