I really hope so. 287 messed up my DD and I seem to have more frequent frame loss (looks like 3 frames a second I am viewing and can only be fixed by changing channels). Oak

I think this is going to be true regardless of your TV resolution for HD. In my experience, the 811 is not very good at downconverting 1080 to 720 (which is what it does when on 720p mode), My television does a much better job at downconverting the 1080i signal (my samsung is 720p native). It...

:mad: I know it was supposed to fix some Dolby issues with certain receivers, but it messed mine up. :mad: I got it Wedensday night, and did'nt use the unit until i got home from work yesterday. I have an off-brand (liquid video) reciever. I have had the optical audio hooked into...

I called Dish CS and they did not have any idea if I needed to see the 105 bird to get my OTA locals guide data. No luck there. So I guess it begs the question, is anyone out there with dish locals on the 105 bird and only a Dish500 getting any local OTA guide data via the 811? oak

My locals are broadcast by Dish (Richmond, VA), but they are on the 105 sat and require a super dish to get. Since I only have a Dish 500, cold this be the reason my local digitals are not mapping to the dish locals? I will try and call Dish CS tonight. Thanks oak

kluever, I have a Samsung DLP as well. I am currently using the 811 reciever with digital out to my home theatre system, but if I recall correctly, to get the sond that goes with the DVI, the RCA jacks need to go to the PC audio inputs on the back of the Sammy. Is this how you have it hooked...

I have the same problem. I know that 3 of the 7 digital stations I get are broadcasting PSIP guide data (I get it with my ATI HDTV card), but the 811 just shows "local digital" for everything. I have deleted and re-scanned the stations both automatically and manually with no change. Does...

volfan, I had the same issue and posted it in another thread here. WJD, a supporter of this site gave me the suggestion to check all my cables to make sure i was using RG6 throughout the whole setup. I knew I had, but checked just in case. Come to find out, out of the 12 or so Coax cables...

WeeJavaDude, Well I went home and checked all of my cables (about 12 in all with the diplexers and splitters for OTA), and all were marked RG6, with the exeption of one. The cable going from the diplexer nar the 811 to the OTA input od the 811. It LOOKED like RG6, but had no markings. I...

WeeJavaDude, I will get all of that info posted here when I get home. I can tell you I have had the unit for 10 months and I do have RG6 from the dish to the diplexer and from the diplexer to the diplexer(at the 811), I am pretty sure I have it from the diplexer to the (2) 811 (ant and sat)...

I would not be too enthusiastic about 2.84. While the OTA channel switching bug seems to have been taken care of for the most part, I am still getting the 'no info' bug in my guide at least 2-3 times a day. It has happened every morning when I turn it on for the last 3 days and a few times...

I tried this from many different angles and positions and just could not get my learning remote to pick up anything from the 811. I ended up using the remote from my 301 upstairs to teach and it worked just fine on the 811. :yes

This is exactly what happens to me, but in addition, sometimes when I go to guide, it shows "no info" for everything and hitting the guide button to change to another Favorites list does nothing, not change. I have to soft re-boot to get it back...sometimesI get guide data out a couple hours...

This has been happening to me ever since the last software update. It is extremely annoying. I cut my 811 off every night, sometimes on OTA, sometimes on SAT channel. Sometimes, I show no info at all in the guide and cant even switch between favorites, the 811 does not resond at all. I...

OK, I have hooked it up via post #10 and everything is coming in @ 85-94%. I am lucky that all my DTV locals exept one share the same tower and the other is only 2 miles from the 1st one. Got PBS, UPN, CBS, NBC, ABC, and FOX. No droppouts. Thanks for everyone's help. Oak. :clap

I guess my question would be.. Would the amplifier itself provide better (higher dB, cleaner, etc) performance if I use a dual power pass diplexer using no power inserter and let the STB power it, or would it better the way I described above, with the power inserter right at the amplifier in...

OK, That changes things a bit. I have legacy Duals. So maybe this will work better. Antenna -> inline amp -> power inserter (I have power plug in attic) -> Diplexer (DC Block ANT side) -> single cable -> Diplexer (DC Block ANT side) -> cable from ANT on Diplexer to ANT IN on 811 AND...

Thanks ATS and all, that's what I needed to know. Now to find a dual DC passive diplexer. Oak :up

I have done some searches, but cant find a difinitive answer for this. I have a Dish 500 with 2 sw-21s. On goes to the upstairs reciever and is fine. The other I have diplexed in the attic to an antenna, then single run of RG-6 to the 811, then diplexed out again at the 811 for Sat and ANT...

This is a huge problem for me as well. My Wife is very frustrated by this as she is home with the kids during the day. They get to watch 1 hour of 'kids' stuff a day and my wife knows when the programs are on. She normally goes to the favorites 'kids' and scrolls down to them. I went ahead...

I dont know of anything, but I currently do this with with your alternalte suggestions (4 Diplexers). I use an amp with the antenna, split it , run it into 2 diplexers with two SAT feeds, then diplex back out again at the 2 boxes, one upstairs and one downstairs. The antenna is in the attic...

Lot of issues after new software I have to say that I have had a lot of issues after the update. Can anyone confirm they are having "more" problems with the list below? 1) Guide data constantly showing no info available, sometimes come back after watching a show, sometimes not. 2)...

Got the update, no local guide info though for :( NBC, CBS, ABC, FOX, UPN, PBS Richmond, VA.

okaydave, It will not effect picture quality as you are correct with the next statement, you either get it or not. Actually, installing a splitter for my OTA digital actually helped my situation out. I have an antenna in the attic and a pre-amp. I tried an tried to tune the pre-amp to the...
