    722K Sound Issue

    I received a new software update last night and the box is working much better today. I consistently have sound and video on all channels. It is slow, twitchy with plenty of peccadilloes just as it was -when it is at its best.

    722K Sound Issue

    I think my patience is at an end for the evening. I'm starting to wonder if TV is worth even this much irritation. The news is intolerable no matter what your point of view. Maybe I should live without TV, and use that time to grow my own vegetables. No twitter, no Facebook... I could live...

    722K Sound Issue

    After the 15 minutes of idle (everything off) the video was not locked, but audio is utterly unpredictable. I lose audio on an SD channel (247) then change to an HD channel (246) where the audio comes back. I change to another HD channel (5) and there is audio. I turn back to 247 (SD) and the...

    722K Sound Issue

    Aha! there it is! I turned HDMI-CEC off. It is different, but not right. The sound on my SD channel will still go silent when I switch from an HD to an SD channel. Simply power cycling the TV restores the sound. I used to have to change to an unused HDMI port then back to the hopper HDMI port...

    I have tried 3 HDMI cables including one that I just bought. I have tested with all 3 HDMI inputs on my TV. I would really like to find the HDMI-CEC control.

    There are 24 options under settings. I looked though all of them including SAP, Bluetooth and Alexa. There is nothing related to HDMI that I can find. Is it tucked away somewhere else?

    722K Sound Issue

    Update: The tech came by and replaced the Hopper then left before I could completely test it. It is still broken. It takes 15 minutes to get it to malfunction. The Hopper is kind of a hoopty, now. A hoopty is a car which requires special instructions if someone wants to borrow it: To start...

    722K Sound Issue

    Thanks for the reply, but there is no HDMI-CEC control. Maybe it used to be there, but Dish recently turned off a lot of the confusing "techie stuff".

    722K Sound Issue

    I've had problems with missing sound on SD channels. For the past week, the problem has escalated to frozen video on startup. I am using the HDMI interface, and I found a work around. I can change the input on my TV from HDMI 1 (Hopper) to HDMI 2 (unused) then back to HDMI 1. It restores all the...
