This was probably addressed in the new GUI forum, but a quick glance there I couldn't find the answer. If anyone has more information than I got from DirecTV rep. On the GUI "upgrade" I just got on my 4K Genie, the menus, list guide etc., the colors are reversed so that there is white/gray...

I have been with DirecTV for 2 years. I currently have 3 - H25's and 2-HR24's. Called retention to get my bill lowered and I am keeping the 2-HR24's. They are coming out Monday at no charge, to add a genie DVR, and replacing the 2-H25's with genie clients. Was it best to upgrade to the 2...

I have 2-DVR's, and 3-HD receivers. When I am in front of DVR box controlling it, everything works great.. NO lag on fast forward, skip, play etc. When I try and control the DVR through an HD receiver box via whole house in another room, the lag is almost unuseable. The picture and...

I have been a DirecTV (new sub) since September. My bill went from $64.98 to $151.22 !! Of course the "glitch" is never in the customers favor. They charged me the $45 for the free HBO/Sho that I still have coming until 1/26/11 and they left off my $31 in credits and my $10 HD access...

I just recently switched to DirecTV from Dish. I had always watched my locals via a small inside antennae hooke up to my Dish DVR on my 73" Mits DLP., and even more so on a new projection setup. I think HD PQ via DirecTV is better than on Dish IMO, but while watching football on my fox via...

I have got alot of help in the Dish network forums over the last 16 years, but I am moving to a new house and the deals with DirecTV, as well as the free Sunday Ticket for new subs are too good to pass up. I am going with the Costco deal, with 2-HD dvr's receivers, and 3-HD receivers, and...

I searched but didn't find anything. Is DISH going to offer any 3D programming, ala ESPN 3D etc. like Directv?

I upgraded from a 522 to a 622, a couple of weeks ago. Right off the start the 622 started either freezing, or getting the guide and sound with no picture. Had to do a power cycle every time to fix. :mad: Dish sending me a new box, but said this was a "known issue" with this box. Geeze...

I currently have a 622, and a 522. I want to upgrade the 522 to another 622, or 722, since I upgraded the TV in the bedroom to HD. I was quoted on chat: Swapping 522 for 622 ($50 upgrade fee - $25 off promo) = $25 FEE $2/month additional HD DVR receiver fee over 522 fee. $10 off a...

The last 4 days, I have had to rescan my OTA locals each day. I get 80-100 signal on all 4 network OTA's I am using a Philips Silver Sensor antennae on top of my 622DVR, for locals. When I rescan everything is good all day, but next morning I have to rescan.. I don't get a "no signal"...

I have a dish DVR-622 hooked up my 52" rear projection TV via component cables. I also have a Optoma projector that I use from time to time, and I have just been unplugging the component connection from my projection TV and hooking that up to my projector. My projector (which is not...

Dish makes it difficult to justify downgrading dollar wise from their AEP, with all the DVR/receiver fees that they tack on. $24/month in my case if I don't keep the AEP. The website shows I would have $7 HD fee, and 3-$5.98 DVR fees for some reason, although customer service says I would...

If you have a legitimate complaint, CEO@echostar.com does get results. Too bad regular Dish customer service won't get similar results. I Sent this email From: ************** Sent: Tuesday, May 01, 2007 7:54 AM To: CEO Subject: Help getting $10 rebates started. Hi, My name is...

I have a 61.5 dish, and used to get CBS-HD east. Can someone give me definitive answer that If I "move" to New York City, that ALL New York City "HD locals" will come in on my 61.5 dish, just like CBS-HD east used to, without making any changes to to my current setup. It was closer to...

Since I lost CBS-HD, only HD network I had.. I am thinking about "moving" 60-miles to the south so I can get all 4-networks in HD. How is the HD quality on the St. Louis networks? I currently have a Dish-500 for 119 & 110 and a 2nd Dish-500 at 61.5. It says to get 118.7, I would need a...

I currently have an leased 811 hooked up DVI to 1 TV set, and a leased 522 DVR setup to display on 3 tv sets. I have AT60, HD package, Voom and locals. I have a dish 500, and a 2nd dish at 61.5. I want to upgrade to the 622, and the platinum HD package. My questions are: 1) Will the...

I get my "local networks" from Dish. They were never the greatest PQ, but since I had my SuperDish taken down (tree growth) and a Dish 500 put in out in the yard, they are blurry. All other channels PQ are the same. Is it because they are coming in on a different satellite?,, I think they...

sorry, I put lost channels on 129 in title, I meant "119" I am getting lost satellite signal Satellite 119, transponder 6 but ONLY on 4 channels... 112, 160, 214, 215. I receive those 4 channels fine on my 522, but not on my 811. Dish 1-800 tech had me do a receiver reset, a check...

I haven't kept up to well on Dish's new receivers/offerings lately. I currently have AT60. HD-Pak, Voom, CBS-HD, HBO, Locals. (I pay $82/month) 1-811 Receiver upstairs & 1-522 Receiver supplying 3 TV's downstairs going thru wholehouse feed. I am leasing, 18 months into a 24 month...

The last few days, I have noticed some flickering or pulsing around the edges of on screen menu titles and text, on my 811HD. It is not to the point of annoying yet, but noticeable. Has anyone else experienced it? Wasn't sure if it was the sat signal, switch or my receiver causing it...

I had a 61.5 dish put in today. They mounted the dish 500 next to my superdish & new switch & mounted it all neatly to the house. It took them a while thought, they had to re-do the superdish connections too, said they were never grounded properly. I got approved for CBS-HD, 1st try. Didn't...

I got tired of fighting non-responding 811HD UHF remote. Works for a few minutes, then works, then stops. I tried everything, I had remote replaced, tried to eliminate intereferences. I bought a 522 I.R. remote of EBAY for $10 shipped. It was a fix for me since I always have a line of sight...

I found that using a "backlight" or bias lighting behind my RPTV greatly improved my Dish viewing experience. You can get a commercial version called IDEAL-LUME from http://www.cinemaquestinc.com/ideal_lume.htm but I made my own, following their specs for 1/3 of the price. A 18" Verilux...

My hard drive failed today on my 522, after 5 months. Anyone have one fail this soon? It has never been bumped, moved etc. Some of the threads on the 501's say it is the way Dish indexes their hard drives, that causes the fail prematurely? I had a TIVO for 3 years before I switched to...

Is anyone still having problems with their IR 811 remote stopping working intermittently after the upgrade. It seems I have to do a receiver reset, almost nightly. It works to turn it on, then after it is idle for a few minutes, will not respond at all. I works fine the rest of the night...
