    522 DVR Function Issues

    I did not have time for much TV last night, but for the couple of hours I did watch, the unit SEEMED to be back to normal. It looks like 4.12 may have fixed these problems.

    522 DVR Function Issues

    Version 4.12 was sent to my unit last night. Since it so quickly followed 4.11 (less than a week), I'm hoping it is meant to (and will) fix these issues. I will check tonight and post tomorrow.

    522 DVR Function Issues

    I want to to a hard reboot to see if it helps. Do I understand correctly that a hard reboot is unplugging the unit and plugging it back in? Thanks for the help.

    L2.98 > L4.11 - Not much new that I notice

    Apparently we aren't done with the problems with 4.11. Last night while watching live tv that we had buffered about 40 mins to avoid commercials, the picture froze. Unit would not respond to any commands, and in a few seconds, it shut down and the screen went to "snow". I did a soft reboot...

    L2.98 > L4.11 - Not much new that I notice

    You're not missing any upgrades, but as is typical whenever a new software version comes out, more problems have been created than have been solved. My caller ID is not working. Half the time the caller ID doesn't display. If the caller ID comes up on the screen at all, the call is...

    Single or Dual?

    I'm swapping out my 522 for a new unit this afternoon and need a bit of help. My current unit is set up in dual mode. I recall the installer and I discussing this and deciding dual would be best for my purposes, but I can't remember why. Can someone give me a quick rundown of single vs. dual...

    625 Skip Buttons after L291

    We're having the same skip forward and back issues since the update. In addition, our 522 has skipped a scheduled event (which showed in the schedule as OK), locked up on a channel on tuner 2 and would not move until I rebooted causing another event to be missed, and occasionally refuses to...

    The phone line and the 522

    My original post was misleading, our 522 is hooked up directly to the phone line, not a called ID unit, but thanks for the suggestion. I figure when we've caught up on all we have recorded, which usually occurs after the May sweeps, I'll consider the swap out.

    The phone line and the 522

    I called Dish last night and, as suspected, this is not a "known problem", which means their only answer is to send a replacment. But since I have over 60 hours of programs recorded that I don't want to have to transfer to some other media, I have just disconnected the line. Even if I didn't...

    The phone line and the 522

    Out of the blue last week, our phone started hanging up on callers after 3 rings. The phone guy came to the house today, tried disconnecting the caller ID line hooked up the the 522, and the problem disappreared. I haven't called Dish CS yet, but I'm sure they will have "no record" of any...

    522

    I'm new here, so forgive me if it's been discussed. I have a 522. The live TV functions (rewind, ff, pause) stop working after a few days. If you try to use these when watching live TV, they will work for a second or two, then quit. I do a reboot by turning the power off at the box (is this a...
