    DIRECTV Further Distances Itself From Cable and Dish Network

    I'm not surprised that Charter is at the bottom of the list! They deserve that -- and they deserve their bankruptcy filing!!

    New Channels

    I had Dish for many, many years -- but when I moved to Smyrna, GA (Outside Atlanta) -- I had no satellite line-of-sight and had to settle for Charter. As many posters have mentioned, the Customer Service sucks and had a really bad install experience (not to mention the fact that they had NO...

    622 Commitment Question

    I got a 622 Dish receiver last Spring under the lease program with 18-month committment. I have now been transferred to another city and the condo I have purchased has no sight lines to the South because of heavy trees. It looks like I'm forced to go with cable. What is the penalty for...

    New Audio problem with 3.63 on 622 when will it be fixed?

    I'm glad to know it's not just me. After watching a recorded show last night and then deleting it, there was no audio. I thought my HDMI was going bad (AGAIN), but the sound was out on the optical feed to my stereo receiver too. It took a reboot to get the sound back. (Didn't check TV2)...

    New to the board.... and I have a 622/DVR Question

    I had an HDMI problem with my first 622, but the replacement has been great. The software has stabilized and I just love the 622. (Some of the extra fees really grate on me though!)

    Poor HD Quality

    Also, make sure you have your HD receiver is not outputting 480i or p. (It should be 1080i or 720p depending on your set).

    Distant networks, Locals, Supers and Voom out...(now back)

    It's not necessarily the injunction because Sirius channels are out. And a friend who has Atlanta stations says they're out as well (Not DNS). This may be a massive technical problem.

    Need Help with HD Networks!

    Does your TV have a built-in QAM tuner? (Does it have a place for a cable card?) If so, then you COULD get your local stations in HD. If not, then you have to have a cable box.

    L3.60 Released For VIP-622

    I had a lot of problems with video stutter on my first 622, but after replacement, it has not been an issue. In fact (knock on wood) this new unit has been darn near perfect.

    New Poll: HDMI Port vs Length of Use

    All right, here's the deal. Got the 622 in early April. HDMI worked great. After about 6 weeks (and not in connection with a software update) it went dead. Nothing worked to get it back. Finally, got Dish to send a replacement. HDMI works great again. It's not the TV. Not the software...

    Poll: Are you having HDMI problems with your 211/411/622

    Got fed up with the rebooting problem and called tech support. They insisted that was caused by tiny power blips at my house! I was getting nowhere in getting a replacement when I mentioned my HDMI had quit working several weeks earlier. At that point, the Tech CSR said they would send a...

    Who is having problems with HDMI with 211/411/622

    My 622 HDMI worked for the first 5 or 6 weeks, then...nothing! This is frustrating, but not as frustrating as when the 622 re-boots in the middle of live and pre-recorded programs.

    NFL HD Problem

    Is anyone else having a trouble getting a picture from the new NFL HD channel? I get audio fine but no picture (it's been that way since last night). All other channels work fine. I have a 622 using component cables (since the HDMI died!) I can use the DVR functions to go back and forward...

    Could be a simple screw-up on Dish's part. It HAS been know to happen!

    So how's Indi 500 HD?

    I liked the 6-camera view, but you're right, Scott, it's a little clunky trying to go back-and-forth. And HD is missed.

    Starz HD HGTV HD NATGEO HD Uplinked!!!!

    I wouldn't get my panties in a wad, yet. We don't know what requirements there will be to get these new channels. It's exciting to know they're uplinked, but don't complain about who's getting what until Dish announces they're available! I expect all 3 non-movie channels to be in all HD...

    Why are live shows delayed 3 hours for the west coast?

    It's all about money. The west coast wants the maximum number of folks to watch and most folks aren't home at 5:00.
