    Random Hopper Duo Questions

    I've had the Hopper Duo for a few months after my 722K bit the dust, and haven't really delved into all that much. The strangest thing is how the DVR can be 40% full, then all of a sudden be at 80% the next day, even with only one or two new recordings. Also, is the Bluetooth adaptor Dish has...

    722K Failure; Need Advice

    I've had this 722K since 2010, and have had no problems. I had it on one day last week, and walked back into the room to see the "starting up" message and nothing taking place. Reset didn't help. Unplugging didn't help. After unplugging it for several hours and plugging it back in, there is...

    From 722 to Hopper Duo

    A couple of questions from a video hoarder concerning a possible move from a 722 to a Hopper Duo. Apparently I can get this upgrade with little or no cost from what I hear. Would they just send me the hopper? I was told I can still keep the 722, which is nearly full of saved programs. I also...

    Programming Decisions

    I have some discounts that are expiring, and need to decide what to do next. I've been getting the Top 120+ for the last several years in order to watch baseball on the Regional Sports Channel. With those possibly being gone for good, I've got to go down to the bare minimum I can afford for...

    722 Component Video Question

    I haven't messed with this in a while, and have apparently forgotten how to get this connection. I just got a new Samsung TV (2018 model), and ran the HDMI cord from the 722 to the TV and it works fine. This TV does not have a component video option, so I wanted to run TV2 to another TV that...

    Dish Remotes Question

    I have a 722 DVR. My two remotes are 20.1 IR, and 21.0 IR/UHF PRO. The UHF remote works okay, EXCEPT for the power button. I can turn on that tuner by just pushing the "sat" button at the top left, but I have to hit the power button to turn that tuner off, and that button is worn out. For...

    Fox Sports 1 High Def?

    I just upgraded to the package that includes Fox Sports 1, in order to watch the National League Playoffs. However, my programming guide is NOT listing an HD version of the channel. I have the HD for life, according to my bill, and get most other channels in HD. Any idea why this channel...

    Dish External Hard Drive Question

    I haven't checked in here in quite a while, and just wanted to ask a question......I've had a Dish 722 DVR for 3 years, and shortly after getting it, added a Seagate USB 2.0 1TB Ext Hard Drive. That ext hard drive is full of programs I don't want to delete (HD World Series games, etc). Is...

    722 to Ext Hard Drive Transfer Problem

    I've been transferring some World Series games from my 722 hard drive to the ext hard drive this past week, but ran into a problem tonight. I record these in HD, and have had about 7 and a half hours of HD avail on my 722 hard drive, and around 2 hours left when finishing the game. This is...
