    next 811 firmware - soon?

    Any news on when to expect something better than firmware 3.30 for our 811's? The guide bugs are terrible with 3.30 - often see No Info, loses local information, greek characters, .... Also, Dish changed something with ATSC Dolby Digital when they released 3.30 and now the 811 occasionally...

    Does the 811 DVI-D use HDCP?

    I'm not using the DVI output from my 811 at the moment. Does the DVI port use HDCP? Some time way back I did connect the DVI to a 17" PC LCD display and got a picture and I think that display did not support HDCP.

    811 @ Ces2005

    I went to the Dish floor area at CES. I think the 811's were only showing satellite channels, and no OTA. Gave them a piece of my mind about the horrid 811 and failure to meet expectations across the whole product line, then left. Watched the Saturday NFL playoff games over in the directtv...

    Call to Action - who is ready to be counted?

    Here we are in August and my 8+ month old 811 has pretty much all the same problems it had 8 months ago. Dark video, OTA to satellite channel recall that doesn't, black screen timers, daily lockups, yadadadada. Countless promises of fixes in the next release have been broken. I am a part...

    Scott wins a 921 on tech forum channel 101!

    Well done, Scott. I assume "Scott from Connecticut" is the Scott that posts here a lot. Keith.

    811 OTA guide - LOL

    From the tech jive on 101 tonight, they are talking about the terrific integration of OTA into the program guide. Uh? All of my 811 OTA channels have NO information in the guide, other than letting me know I have programmed a channel. These presenters are really clueless on the missing...

    811 dark image fix - next week?

    Hmmm, now the tech jive channel 101 is saying dark image fix next week. So if that is P266, the Dish Home Channel garbage must be P267. Keith.

    Watching the tech jive on 101 tonight - software that turns on Dish Home Channel is coming in mid June! That is P266 according to Dish CSR's. That sucks. Keith.

    811 and 4000 and Dish500 - possible?

    I have a single 811 installed with Dish500. The installer ran two sets of wires into the basement because I told him I was going to add a second receiver later. Eventually I will get a 5xx DVR for the second TV, maybe pick one up on ebay. A friend is upgrading and dumping his old 4000 receiver...

    811 Remote and Denon receiver - setup code?

    Is anyone using the 811 and controlling a Denon receiver with the remote? The 811 users guide only has code 674 for Denon, and that isn't doing anything with my Denon 3300. I started the procedure to discover a code, but gave up after 5 minutes of button pushing. If you have the 811 working...

    Almost ordered the 811 but...

    I was all jazzed up to buy the 811 then happened to check out the datasheet. There is no coax output to a TV? I only see RCA/phono type connector for baseband video and audio, component on RCA, the DVI connector and the mini-DIN for s-video. Does the 811 always upsample or can you use it with...
