    Former Exec Sues Dish Network

    People like her need to grow the heck up. I hate people calling out discrimination in situations like this. There are things you can do WAY before actions like these are needed. Most companies already have certain people within assigned to help people claiming discrimination. There are other...

    NBR Dish Pass - Something Interesting

    Um, it has nothing to do with Dish Pass... :) When you set a timer you can go to options and set it to start early and or end late. It defaults to 1 min early and 3 min late.

    Picture getting worse...

    Well, I looked at the pictures and the only one it looks kinda like is the aliasing. Atm I am really thinking it is over compression. I just got a dvd burner yesterday and have burned a couple movie backups. I burned a LOTR movie and it had 50.2% compression. It went from around 8gb to...

    Picture getting worse...

    I dunno about that either. I WAS having signal problems but have since had a tech come out to fix those issues. Atm, the lowest signal str. on any transponder is 94 and the highest is 105.

    Picture getting worse...

    Just the 522. Atm I am in single mode so I never know which tuner I am on but I THINK it does it both.

    Picture getting worse...

    Well, I cant be 100% sure but I am thinking in this case it isnt the tv. The main reason I think that is because the pixilation is worse of diff channels. Its not like its one steady stream of bad pixilation. If that makes sense :)

    Picture getting worse...

    Ok, I got Dish installed on the 22nd of Dec and at first the picture was awesome accept for some normal garbage from using coax instead of s-video. Over the next week or so it seemed to slowly decrease in quality to the point that I noticed it on most everything I was watching. Now, the picture...

    New DISH Player-DVR 625 Makes Hit Movies Available to Satellite TV Customers

    Kinda lame, Comcast came out with that almost 1 month ago and its a free service for ALL customers with digital cable. You dont need a special box to play anything. I got my own taste of it just before I switched to Dish. It was really nice and actually made me think twice before leaving...

    Price Increases for Dish on 2/1/2005

    True, I haven't been with E* for even a month yet but when I break my first bill down I know what I will see on my bill for the 3rd month, which is $50(not including taxes, dvr free, etc.) for ALL channels. In either case I was told that I would be paying $50 a month for all the channels I am...

    522 Locking up

    Yeah, I can see it now... They introduce the DVR 530. It is able to record in mpeg 4, has 300 hours of recording, and does HD. Now the bugs will be that it can only record in mpeg 2, only has 100 hours of record time, and cant do HD. But hey, at least wont have the bugs of the 522. :)

    522 Locking up

    LMAO!! Now thats funny because one of the techs from Dish told me to actually DO that. It locked while I was on the phone with em and they told me to hold the power button down. I know the kinda problems that can come from doing that so I just said uh huh and pretended like I was doing...

    Price Increases for Dish on 2/1/2005

    Wth!?!? I am paying around $50 a month for 180 + locals + hbo and cin ... that says that I will have to pay $20 more now per month. This is bull .. why even switch to Dish now? They over compress, they are the same $$ as cable, you have to pay $30-$100 to have people come fix the dish if...

    522 Locking up

    Has anyone else had a problem with the 522 locking up every now and then for a few seconds? Sometimes when I go to use the box after having not touched it for a little bit(30+min) it will lock up and the guides wont work but I can still see picture moving. Then, after about 5-15 seconds, it...

    Too funny...

    Funny... I asked for a tech to come out and tweak my dish today and it just happens to be my old supervisor from Comcast Cable... Seems everyone is seeing that local cable sux... :p

    New install, lousy picture

    Dude, I am having the EXACT! same problem. My picture on the 522 with basically the same setup looks like a ripped dvd encoded on a crap computer using bad software .. lol I was expecting a lot more than I got but atm I am looking into getting HD. Its funny though, when I was with cable tv...

    Install gone wrong...

    Well, I just got a knock on my door this morning at 8am from my land lady ... Seems, that when the Dish people came to install my dish they cut right through some power and other wires yet never told anyone. Thankfully they are not going to charge me but are going to charge the company that...

    What is sat 119 for?

    Cool, will do that. I am hoping a diff tech comes out cause I honestly think the whole dish needs to be moved. I am in an apt with a front yard type deal and he put the dish close the the house. Now, I dont care where it goes but its sooo close that it looks like it doesnt even clear the...

    Question about pixilation ...

    I see what I consider to be two types of this with my 522 from Dish but I am trying to figure out which, if either, is supposed to be there and which is the "problem" pixilation... One form of this pixilation is always there.. I can see the tiny pixels of the images. This pixilation is more...
