I live in Houston. Tonight we are trying to watch 176 and 171. We keep losing the signal about every two minutes. There is not a cloud in the sky. Anyone else having a problem?

I agree. It would be nice to have a single button on the remote for this. I have a $25 dvd player that has a single button on the remote and I can toggle cc off and on for a dvd.

Anyone know what Dish channel to game against the Bobcats will be on tonight? Houston paper says FSNH. I do not see it listed on Fox SW or any other channel in my guide.

Mine was freezing daily. The latest 3.05 software is better. It only freezes up every other day now!:D

I am having the same problem. The picture will first freeze on the 222 and then when I change the channel to try and get it back the screen goes black and only get audio on both televisions. A reboot solves the problem but have to do this almost daily now. Guess I will be calling dish to try...

This is a sore subject with me, Mr. Dish customer. I told them I needed two hookups in my two front bedrooms that were not wired with coax. They said no problem, the guy will install those as part of our install service. Installer shows up, tells me he can only do it from an outside wall...

I have my ota hooked up directly to the television. I get the locals in my area but have that as a backup for when I lose the signal in a storm. I tried hooking the ota up to my 722 also and had the same problem. Never could find the ota channels through the 722. Tried it through the 222 and...

I have had to reboot my 722 twice. Starting the last two days the video on many channels will be jerky and look like slow motion. The audio on those channels is fine. The analog tv that is running off of the 722 is fine on those channels. When I reboot it fixes the problem. Any idea what...

I set up the kef 2005.2 system last week. I have wood floors, doorways between the front and back walls and did not want to have to pull wire through the walls and attic. I bought the Rocketfish wireless rear speaker module from Best Buy. $99 bucks and if it did not work I have 30 days to...

I guess ZERO is on the Dish payroll after reading his replys. ZERO, you wil be upset to know that I got an offer from Dish in the mail since I posted this thread begging me to come back and offering the new customer deal, even though "I jumped ship" previously and went to a competitor. Get...

I didn't mean to start a girl fight when I asked the original question!:p All I want from Dish is to get the HD DVR without the $199 fee. I will be signing up for the HD package with the 250's and my locals. As an above poster noted I will most likely be a customer for a long time. I...

Well your wrong. They had my credit card number and auto billed me each month. I guess I just got a pisshead customer service rep. How much sense does it make to run a company like this and you allow the people that answer the phone to make their own decisions?

I will give that a shot. Seems ridiculous that I have to be sneaky just to get signed back up as a new customer. If Dish had more competition and they acted like this they would be out of business.

I switched from Dish to TW 14 months ago. After having Dish for 7 years they would not let me bundle my Dish with my ATT because that was only for new customers. After a long discussion the Dish rep more or less told me they did not care if I left so I cancelled. Got a great TW deal for the...

When Dish adds that I go somewhere else. There are already enough shopping channels, and other crap using up bandwidth. How about getting us a full package of HD channels, including locals.

I rebooted yesterday and thought I had it cured. It lasted about 10 hours. Whenever I try to look ahead on the guide I get no info, the when I cancel the guide I get the black screen of death. I have 2.89 and it is a bigger pos than 2.84 was. I also have a new issue where my local over the...

I have had the same "no info" problem since last Sunday when the 2.89 downloaded. Today I rebooted the 811 as I have had to do in the past with the black screen of death and the guide has worked since then. Do not know if this is a cure but it has worked for eight hours, which is some kind of...

My 811 is still on 284 and almost daily has to be rebooted to get the guide to work. I am willing to upgrade to these new channels but they all sound pretty lame to me. GuyTv? What is that, some gay dating service? And Monster TV and some of the others sound no more appealing. Someone...

My 811 has had some major hiccups since the 284 download. OTA is the biggest problem. When OTA I have trouble with the guide freezing or not having any information that I never had before. I have had a couple of bsod events but not as many as before. This seems to be better but definitely...

Well 2.84 was not the answer for me. Froze and got the bsod twice last night for the first time in a few weeks. Also had problems with audio cutting out and would have to change channel and then go back to get the audio to connect to my receiver. The bsod appeared last night one time when I...

Not sure this is the same but for the first time I got an on screen written message that said "Vidoe input lost" and then everything pixelated a few times and then corrected. I have never seen that message before.

Same problem here. The DT channels over the air seem to be darker. Componenet connection also. I also have a new problem. The guide has come up twice with the lettering blurred and chopped up. Had to hard reboot the receiver and that fixed it. These guys have a receiver that seems to...

I have my component run directly from the 811 to the HD input of the tv. I had tried switching it to the other HD component input with no better results. I have not tried using a different component cable yet. Think I will try a DVI to HDMI and see if that makes a difference. It does seem to...

I have not kept a log of which channels. I do know it has been only through the HD component input. It has happened while viewing OTA local channels in HD or SD and also on ESPN HD which comes in through Dish. The only common thing is that is happens only on the HD input and it can happen on...

I have only noticed the problem on the HD input with the component cables. My set up for the 811 output is for 1080i. This does not happen on a regular basis but when it does happen it can sometimes fill the screen with these red horizontal lines. It goes away as quickly as it appears.
