    Picture Quality

    We went from Dish (had way too many outages), to Cable (terrible picture HD & SD both, plus too few HD channels), to Direct TV, all within a couple of weeks, and Direct TV has a lot better picture, even the colors on the tv are much better,, so far, we are very pleased with Direct TV.

    Dish on Demand

    Sorry if this seems like a stupid question, but, I have seen discussions about Dish on Demand, and was wondering if anyone who has Dish can get this, and if so, how do we get it? Do you have to have a DVR in order to get it? I know nothing about this, obviously, but from what I have read, it...

    Multiple ViP 211's

    When I upgraded to the HD Platinum package, I had one CSR tell me they'd send me a new 211 receiver, not realizing I would need a new dish also. As it turns out, I had to have an installer come out and install all the new equipment, but Dish never cancelled the shipment of the new 211 receiver...

    HDMI Adapter or Component?

    Thanks, that's what I thought, but wasn't sure if there actually was a big difference or not.

    HDMI Adapter or Component?

    I just had Dish install the new 211 receiver for HDTV. It has an HDMI output, however my Sony HDTV has just the component and DVI outputs. The Dish installer hooked the tv to the receiver with the component cables. Would I get a better picture to connect the receiver to the tv using a DVI-HDMI...

    Yes, call them back, I had a similar experience, and when I called back the CSR I talked to the second time set me up with a Dish 1000 install, this coming Sunday, and the tech that will install the dish will bring me the new receiver and set it up. I just have to return my 811 to them.

    DISH1000 Not Required?

    I called this morning for my upgrade, and I was told that I have a "superdish", and I would not need an a different dish. I sure hope the CSR was correct on that. Maybe I should call back and inquire?

    Platinum Package Order I just called and placed my order for the Platinum Package, replacing my 811 receiver. I did not order the DVR, so, I was told that they will ship out my new receiver, and I will get it in 7-10 business days and when I do receive it to call them back to activate the new...

    811 and Voom Channels

    I am very new to all of this, as I just had my Dish installed a couple of months ago. I have been reading some of the posts here about getting the Voom HD channels. I have the Dish HD package, and the 811 receiver. My question is, since I can see that I do have the 61.5 satellite, do I still...
