    522 Comprehensive Bug List and Feature Wish List

    I think this would have to be consdiered a "Wish List" type of item because it is not like something is malfunctioning. Changing the pad times works just fine....but I (and I think other people too) would like to ability to decide what we want as default pad times so that we don't have to edit...

    522 and Alaska problems

    Although I don't live in Alaska I am familiar with the problem you are having due to a vacation house that I have on the 'edge' of the Official Dish Network Coverage Area. You don't specify which of the 110 satellites you are not being able to tune into; but if your problem is similar to mine it...

    522 Comprehensive Bug List and Feature Wish List

    Am I supposed to feel sorry that you didn't read my post? Man! You give to much credit to yourself. Your contribution to my posts is negative (iow you not only not contribute anything positive, but your contributions are of such nature that they are negative), so I don't give a damn if you...

    522 Comprehensive Bug List and Feature Wish List

    Not understanding something is DEFINATELY not stupid. It may in fact be the fault of the person stating the issue...(not being clear enough). Regarding the start end pad times, what I meant to say it that there should be the option for the owner of a 522 receiver to setup default start and...

    522 Comprehensive Bug List and Feature Wish List

    Every action brings a reaction. If I am personally attacked I will defend myself. Don't attack me and I wont attack you. If Pepper has anything to complaint about my posts let HIM tell me about it, but having the rest of the people act as his 'bodyguard' will bring with it some reaction from my...

    522 Comprehensive Bug List and Feature Wish List

    Thank you for updating the list once again. It is certainly nice to see that the two most serious issues I am facing with the 522 (which were not there before) are now part of the list. However just from reading the thread last week I know that quite a few bugs and wish list items that were...

    522 Comprehensive Bug List and Feature Wish List

    I think the answer to this is redundant. It makes no sense to have everybody have a separe bug list. This is SO OBVIOUS that I am starting to think that you have a mental problem of so sort which is preventing you from following the most basic logical principles. I am so sorry for you...

    522 Comprehensive Bug List and Feature Wish List

    Your BUG list is incomplete. You are disregarding feedback from almost everybody! You claim to have updated yoru bug list, but your updates are completely biased. You are NOT including the bugs that have been recently reported on the thread you started at SatelliteGuys.US....eventhough YOU...

    522 Comprehensive Bug List and Feature Wish List

    That is a very smart observation that I had not taken into account. I was looking at this from my own perspective which is that of starting with NO guide or with the 2 day guide. However to take your issue into consideration the algorithm used for fetching the guide could be modified so that...

    522 wont work without the 9-Day EEPG on 110-TP29

    Issue appears to be solved. Despite my hessitation to start troubleshooting the issue again, I followed the advise given. I moved the dish positioning a bit (in both horizontal and vertical position) and to my surprise I am now able to pickup all transponders, and I am therefore also able to...

    522 Comprehensive Bug List and Feature Wish List

    Wish List or Bug (not sure) - Program Guide Retrieval that's smart! I am not sure if this is a bug on the current software of the 522 or a wish item. I personally view it as a bug, but Dish Network may view it differently. When a person has a Dish 522 connected to satellite 110 and some...

    522 wont work without the 9-Day EEPG on 110-TP29

    The 522 unit is being sold in Hawaii and Alaska. I think that when they launched the unit they thought that it would work well with both the EEPG (9 day guide) as well as with the 44 hour program guide; but something went wrong (some programming error) and the recurring events/name based...

    522 Comprehensive Bug List and Feature Wish List

    Wish List - Caller ID to display also foreign phone numbers. I wish Dish Network would enhance the functionality of the caller ID on the 522 to be able to display the caller ID information of non-USA phone numbers. When a foreign call comes in, the 522 displays: Unavailable Out of Area...

    522 wont work without the 9-Day EEPG on 110-TP29

    Unlike you I dont make a habit of ranting about how bad Echostar is. In fact I think they are pretty good overall. I think the level fo expertise of their customer support department (both level 1 and 2) is very poor, and this time I had to complaint about the 522 because it has a bug which...

    522 Comprehensive Bug List and Feature Wish List

    Wish List - A way to select default "start early" and "end late". I wish Dish Network would make it possible in a future software release for users to define the number of minutes that they want recordings to start (by default) early and end late. At the present time that function is...

    522 Comprehensive Bug List and Feature Wish List

    Wish List or Bug (not sure) - Dial Prefix should allow for # and * signs. Another bug (or wish list item, depending on how you view it), that is not yet in this list is the fact that the current software doesn't allow for the pound sign and the star sign to be entered as part of the dial out...

    522 wont work without the 9-Day EEPG on 110-TP29

    I will wait for the 44 hour program guide fix to the software of the 522 that Mark Lamutt says will be done by Dish Networks during the next software release. As long as the recurring events and name based programming works I don't care if I have the 44 hour or the 9 day schedule. It would...

    Moving EEPG to satellite 119. In support of my view that the EEPG should be moved to satellite 119 here is what Pat A (Anchorage, Ak) of dbstalk had to say to a similar thread that I started there: I do have to agree with witschey, in that I think that the extended guide should be moved to...

    I agree that I started a similar thread at DBSTalk, since the audiences of these two forums are different. I also read the post that is quoted above on that tread. It was posted by a Mr. Mark Lammutt. I am NOT familiar with Mr. Mark Lammutt, so I can't say if his sources at Dish Network are...

    522 wont work without the 9-Day EEPG on 110-TP29

    Yes, I am 100% positive the 522 only works with the EEPG with the current version of software (as of April 25). I have confirmed this with the Technical Product Support Department who told me that the EEPG was needed for it to work. Besides the problem is being experienced by other people who...

    There IS people having this issue in Alaska and Hawaii. Just nobody has replied to this tread yet. In fact there is other threads from people in those areas who have similar problems. Read for instance treads: - Dish Network 522 DVR Name Based Recording problems - 522 Name Based...
