You're right.. they will likely encrypt the 'archived storage' media to the external dohickey and of course reverse-engineering the encryption to decrypt will be breaking the DMCA, punishable by the full extent of the law. How long do you think Dish will stick with mpeg2? I imagine as they...

I hope dish doesn't swap cards again. It took around a month for them to get the stinking yellow card to work with my Dishplayer 7100. Just love how they incapacitated my receiver with next to no warning. They shipped me 3 separate yellow cards before we got one that allowed the receiver to...

If all your neighbors get shut off guess who they are going to blame for alerting Dish that they still have their distants? Maybe start constructing a bunker in the back yard. lol

I wonder if the Dishplayer 7100 will be one of these receivers... Lol.. oh yeah I been archiving by removing the harddrive to rip to my PC and create DVDs of the raw source for years now. Sounds like Dish is going to make this a much easier process for those with the newer DVRs.

Sorry for the really late reply (the holidays and all) I did power it off for an evening, but it didn't help. I will call their customer service and ask them to hit it up with their zap again and see if that knocks some sense in it. I will only have til the end of the month to enjoy the free...

That's the problem.. my locals suddenly appeared as 18, 27, 36, 46, 56 on the 2700, but the real channel designations in the guide (9205, etc) are not present. So they are NOT both represented. When tuning to these locals (as in the 2700 guide) I get 'waiting for satellite signal' and that times...

Power cycling did not work. Do I need to turn the receiver off for a certain amount of time? I notice that the channels are mapped to the local channel number. I know they are suppossed to be as channel 9205 for example. Is there a way for the receiver to not make them the actual local channel...

I'm in the Lexington DMA Maybe I just need to shut off the receiver and turn it back on. I have a Dish 500 system pointing to 110 and 119. I think it is the receiver. I'll cycle the power and see what happens. It has been doing this for 4 or 5 weeks now (since locals were turned on for free)...

So Dish Network cut off my distant networks yesterday. I have had them since 1999. They have provided free locals to me, but my old 2700 receiver can't do the spot beam thing and tune them in. I don't really want to shell out to lease a receiver from Dish (I shouldn't have to, right?). I use the...

I received my third yellow card last week and finally had a free moment from TV this evening to try it out. This particular card was shipped UPS and not the United States Postal Service as the first 2 had. So this time I decided to do the process a little differently.. Turn off Dishplayer...

Well I am back to a useable 7100. My suspicions on the remote going to the later Dishplayer remote were confirmed. I downloaded a JP1 code for the newer dish remote and loaded it in my All For One URC8810W remote (hacked a year ago to allow remote config downloads over parallel port on my pc)...

So I slip the blue card in the other day and I get my programming back, but all my saved shows are GONE! Not only that I am unable to fast forward or rewind the shows I do record on it. I get that 'bong' sound when I press the up, down, left or right directional buttons on the remote during...

Guess what happened today! Dish disabled my blue card that they reactivated after we tried the second yellow card. "Out of the blue" they cut off my access on my Dishplayer today. I slipped the 2nd yellow card back in and am still getting nothing, but the dumb screen to activate. For the heck of...

I got my second yellow card yesterday, popped it in and the same thing! After half an hour on the phone the rep says they are sending me out a third card. Worth noting, they upped the expiration of my current blue card. I think the only way for me to win is to keep calling and keep having them...

Dish sent me a couple yellow access cards for my receivers yesterday. My older 2700 receiver took the card and after registering the new cards to the receiver on the website, it immediately worked. My Dishplayer 7100 is another story... I keep getting the screen about card activation, so...
