    Any HD Locals Mapping Update

    Yes! My New York HD Locals (off the 61.5 sat) have mapped down to their off-air channel numbers starting late last week. Cool.

    HD World EPG info incomplete

    Did anybody else notice that the guide info details are missing for the HD World channel. All they show is "Movie" and the details are all missing. Is it just my 622? Will a reset force a download of the EPG and fix this? Is this is VOOM problem or Dish/E* problem? -Naidu

    Dish To Carry Cricket World Cup

    Dish charges cricket fans up the wazoo for this PPV event. The 2003 Cricket World Cup, for example, cost $300 for all the matches (54 or so) from South Africa. The 2007 World Cup will cost as much or more. I think most of the problems with Yes network (and other such networks) and Cable/Sat...

    My Vip622 experience so far, coming from a Tivo and 811

    You can go to the HD Local/OTA (I forget the exact name) menu and enter the UHF channel number of that ABC station. This method allowed me to enter one HD channel that scanning missed (signal is quite strong, so I don't know why it missed it; but it does come from an often flaky/experimental HD...

    Hd Lil Mapp Down...

    JDR: Yes, I think this is being effected by the fact that we're both getting our HD Locals from the 61.5 sat (I'm in New Jersey). Everybody who has this working seems to be getting their HD Locals off the 129 sat (which is too low in the horizon for NorthEast and SouthEast regions). Not sure...

    Hd Lil Mapp Down...

    GoalieBob (and others), I cannot get this to work on my 622. I've set the HD Local priority in the Sat Locals screen, but only New York SD locals are showing up at 02-00, 04-00, 05-00 and 07-00. All these appear in HD in the 6300-6303 locations only. I even rebooted the box to make sure that...

    Echostar to Distribute India BCCI Matches in North America

    If you mean the CSRs in India, then they get all their cricket on cable and on free OTA channels. All the cricket they want, and then some! :)

    Uplink Activity for Wed. March 01 2006

    That first one above should be WPVI-DT (not KPVI-DT), the Philadelphia ABC station. They are, in order, the ABC, CBS, NBC and FOX affiliates for Phila.

    Echostar to Distribute India BCCI Matches in North America

    Well, this Dish subscriber and fan of Indian cricket is happy, but I think they are going to raise the PPV rates through the roof. Nimbus paid BCCI a huge amount for the worldwide rights, and they're charging their broadcast and satellite partners (like Echostar) an arm and a leg. But we're...

    WNYW (NYC FOX) HD Having audio dropouts?

    Bob, I've the same problem with a similar setup as yours: Audio from 622 to my Denon 2803 via the optical out. All other channels, HD and SD, work fine. I've tried both the Line and R/F options with no change. Not sure of the source of the problem. For reference, I'm in the Freehold, NJ area.

    Anyone have any luck moving up an install?

    I called on 2/1 for my 622 upgrade with an original install date of 2/28. When I enquired about better dates, I was advised to call back in "a few days" to see if cancellations, etc., allowed for an earlier install. I called back couple of days later and was able to grab a 2/22 slot. The 622...

    622 Problems!! Please advise

    While watching a channel are you able to jump back 10 seconds? When you do this, it is reading from the hard disk. If you are not able to do this, then it is another indication of a failed disk or one that needs reformatting. During the initial setup and activation did you see a message...

    Post your 622 Reviews Here!

    I got my 622 delivered via UPS on 2/15. The install date was yesterday, 2/22. I had unpacked and had the 622 ready to go the day it arrived, but couldn't do much till the installer changed by old style switches to the DPP models. After the DPP44 was installed on 2/22, I unplugged the 501 and...

    Have you Received a ViP622?

    Ordered my 622 on 2/1 with an initial install date of 2/28. Called a few days later to have it moved up to 2/22. The 622 and an empty box arrived via UPS on 2/15. Unpacked the 622 and did most of the hook ups. Waiting for the install tech to change my switches from old style to DPP so that...

    The 942 is HERE!

    Bryan, Thanks. I was afraid the above might be the case. I wouldn't have minded paying the $699, but with the upcoming MPEG4 switch-over, it is too much for a short/medium-term solution. E* finally comes up with a HD DVR worth having, but they've to frustrate their long term customers...

    The 942 is HERE!

    What about us ordinary mortals (ie, current subscriber)? When will the 942 be available for lease to us? Will it ever be? Does anybody know? Rumors/speculation welcome. Thanks! (If this was answered earlier, please clue me in.)
