    Revenge of the evil archive feature....(and a sing-a-long rant)

    Scott, This question is really for you to ask Dish... Are they going to reintegrate the ability to archive to an external drive? I am really irritated (especially after my interaction with tech support today) with how long this feature has been disabled. I'm sorry, it's just retarded...

    Forgetful remote...

    so every day I turn on my TV and find my STB in a state of inactivity. I cannot wake it with the remote at all. I press the power button on the STB and it comes up but the remote will not work. I hold the system info button and then re-sync the remote by pressing the sat button...

    the official 'Yay the server is too busy' thread

    Just a point of irritation....At what point did forcing folks to log into the Dish Network site seem like a good idea for using Sling... The site is not exactly robust & 4 times now in the past 2 days I've been welcomed with Server too busy errors.... Come on Dish....Do it right

    622 will not boot

    Well one of my 622's apparently decided it was tired of working & went on a permanent vacation. Powering up the device brings you to a full speed fan and eventually a white vertical bar on the screen, with the TV1 light lit up. After about 15 seconds the bar & TV1 light disappears and TV goes...

    622 Failure & overall irritation

    Well I've been a dish customer for some time now. I have 2 622's & a 211. Once before I had a 622 replaced due to a bad HDD, they then replaced it with another refurbished unit that failed within 3 weeks (fan bearings were going out-it was a horrible sound). Here I am again, out of...

    touchscreen remote compatibility?

    I just got my RCU1010RF remote from RCA today & it refuses to learn any IR codes from the dish remote. I have the 522 system (yes I am using the TV 1 IR- remote (I even verified it is transmiting IR with my camcorder) The remote will learn from all my other devices, but it refuses to...
