I've noticed lately that my HR 24-200 is freezing for 3-4 seconds, then catching up at 10x speed. The strange part is if I rewind and play from the DVR, the freeze/skip isn't there. For example, I was watching a basketball game last night and twice in a 5 minute period the picture...

I only had 2 months left on my contract, so I canceled for $20 and ordered Direct for this Saturday. Went with Ultimate, the Sports Pack, HD for Life and 3 HD receivers (1 DVR). It's basically the same setup I had with Dish, with the one additional HD receiver. Channel disputes did it for me...

I'm currently a Dish customer. I have a 411 running on a living room TV and a two tuner 622 (TV1 HD, TV2 SD) on an LCD in another room with TV2 being my SD bedroom set. Does DirecTV offer such a setup? Do they even have a two tuner HD receiver or do you have to have 3 receivers for 3 TV's...

I have recently seen severe pixelization during crystal clear days, mostly during the afternoon. Five or six times in the past few weeks, I've come home at 5 pm and attempted to watch ESPNHD only to have it too broken up to watch. I've changed to other channels and, besides my HD locals off of...

These two channels are so compress that the grass moves during football games and artifacts are all over the place. Is this an ESPN problem or is Dish not giving the channels enough bandwidth? In comparision, I turned it over to Universal HD last night and US Open tennis looked much better...

I know very little about my Dish connections, but I'll do my best to frame this question. I have a Dish 1000 with a 322 in my bedroom (which also feeds another bedroom on the opposite side of the house) and a 211 in the living room. All of my TV's are connected to a wall outlet. Are all of my...

I have a 211 and I'm getting ready to buy a 2.1 HTIB (I don't want to run wires). Is the digital output from the 211 reliable? I've read where the 622 optical is out of synch with the picture.

I had an 811 w/ the HD Pack. In February, I upgraded to the 211 with a Dish 1000 in order to receive the VOOM channels. All of that went fine. When ESPN2HD went live, it's signal strength was only in the 60's and went totally out with only moderate cloud cover. NGHD, HGTVHD and HDNFL are all...

I get most of my channels from 110 and 119, but also get 129 for Voom and the new channels just launched today. I have a Dish 1000. My 129 signal strength is in the 40's, 50's and 60's depending on weather. This causes the channels frequently to break up or lose the signal all together. Will...

Despite me clearly telling the CSR on 2/1 that I needed a Dish 1000 satellite along with a new receiver for the HD upgrade and despite the fact that he twice acknowledged that fact, the installer showed up without it today. He then wanted to just install the 411 and come back later in the week...

I'm a current AT 180 + HD pak subscriber that leases an 811. I'd like to add all the VOOM channels plus the two new HD channels (ESPN2HD and Universal HD). I have a Dish 500 system. I know I need a Dish 1000 and a new receiver. What do I need to do and how much is it going to cost me? Whom...

I see references to the Dish HD Demo Channel. What channel is it?

I have an 811 and a Dish 500 system pointed at 110. I went into the signal strength portion of the menu, switched from 110 to 61.5 and got the same signal strength (although 61.5 didn't lock). Does this mean I can get the 61.5 channels with my current dish and not have to buy a new one?

This channel launches tomorrow with 3 HD college basketball games. With Dish and Directv failing to make an announcement, will anyone see them?

ESPN2HD's first day on the air will feature 3 HD college basketball games. Dish and Directv have not added this channel. Has anyone? Will these 3 games be broadcast to....well, no one?

From looking at their schedule, they are showing tons of college basketball on ESPN2 HD. Is Dish adding this channel?

My one year commitment ends in early January. I know that Dish will send you boxes to send your receivers and remotes back. Also, I know they want the LNB. My question is this...Will my installer return and take the dish down, etc. (for a fee of course) or am I stuck doing that myself?

Will Dish add this to the HD package? Anyone heard?

I posted awhile back that I had totally lost my local digital ABC (previously 68-73% reception) and PBS (previously 80-85% reception) out of nowhere for no apparent reason. Well, I'm sad to report that my my local digital CBS (previously 75-80% reception) is now 49-65 % and won't lock. So...

I had an 811 installed in mid-January and I was receiving local CBS, ABC, Pax and PBS OTA in digital. Sometime in early March, I totally lost the digital ABC and PBS channels. The ABC went from high 60's and low 70's to 0 and PBS disappeared despite being 85% for 6 entire weeks. I have never...

Could someone please tell me how to hook my VCR up to the receiver so that I can record shows from the satellite? I want to hook it to a Dish 322. I have a composite connection empty on the 322, but the VCR only has the yellow and white input. How do I make this work? By the way, I tried...

I live in central Kentucky and got my 811 on January 15. I did the digital scan and was able to receive the local CBS (78%-82%), local ABC (high 60's and low 70's, but perfect picture), local PAX (in the 80's) and about six different digital PBS channels (most in the mid and high 80's). I was...

I got my 811 installed yesterday and I'm thrilled. The HD picture is great on my 1080i Panasonic 47" WS. The UCONN/Pitt game on ESPNHD last night was beautiful. I couldn't be happier with that part. One of my main concerns was the ability of the OTA tuner. I live about 25 air miles from the...

My 811 is being installed as we speak, but I may have a problem. I have a 2001 model Panasonic 47" WS with two sets of component inputs, but no DVI. When I connect a DVD player directly to the component input, it automatically plays with no problem. However, when I connected the 811 directly...
