    Only International

    Ohh gotcha, now I got it, thanks. You think when I call to cancel I could convince the customer loyalty department to waive that requirement? Because $47 (w/ DVR) to watch only three channels is a bit outrageous for me and I do have other options for international programming.

    Only International

    Hmm I'm a little confused about this $10 for Int'l basic. The international package I have is 3 south Asian channels for $30. What does that have to do with this basic int'l package?

    Only International

    Haven't posted in years but looks like I'm going to be canceling my American programming (AT 120+) and just keeping my international with DVR. I was wondering if they still had that additional fee for international if you don't have American? Also, would my American DVR shows still be accessible...

    Late start recording Criminal Minds Wed. 4/11

    I had a similar problem with my 625. I usually record 24 on A&E in the mornings at 7 but earlier this week it recorded about 25 minutes late. So for the next day I set it to record 30 minutes early just in case it happened again but its been working fine the last couple of days. First time that...

    Syntax Olevia Lcd tv

    I had the same issue when I got my olevia about a year ago. Syntax says any code under RCA, YAMAHA, LG, or Philips will work. But you have to try several codes before getting full functions such as being able to change inputs. For me, I tried many codes that worked but it took a while before...

    Themes/Search/Sports Inaccurate

    Not exactly on subject, but does anyone know why they won't let us customize the themes search to just subscribed channels? I mean what's the point when you search for movies and all you get is PPV and HBO stuff. Since most other things can be chosen as "all sub" you should be able to do that...

    Default Recording Option

    Every time I select a program that is on more than once (everything except sports), the default for the timer is set to record all episodes. I don't find this a big deal but most of my family forget about this and just want to record that one episode. It seems that everything else can be set to...

    Have NBR on 50x series!

    You guys should put a question mark after the title of the thread instead of an exclamation point, it will confuse people thinking that there really is NBR on 5xx receivers.

    DISH Network(TM) Video On Demand Platform to Feature Special ABC Programs

    I'm not sure about today, but can't you just press "3" after pressing "DVR", and then you'll see all the choices, but there wasn't any as of yesterday when I last checked.

    Is Dish Bored?

    Comcast should do the same thing by posting pictures of the guy who installed the dish on top of the basketball hoop.

    Dvr 625 Hd

    The only way it will stop making the noise is if you unplug it so it will be completely turned off. The noise of the Hd is completely normal so you don't have to worry about it. After a while you should get used to it.

    Have to power off vip622 at night????

    Well I'm sort of confused. When you guys mean "off" do you mean pressing power on the remote control in SAT mode or actually pressing down the power button on the receiver?

    625 Skip Buttons after L291

    Wouldn't it be nice if you could decide how much the skip intervals were? Would it really be that difficult to change 30 sec. forward to 25 sec. and then turn it back whenver you want?

    Fan noise from the 625

    I definitely don't have a complaint with the 625 fan noise. (the only problem with it is the DVR bugs, but thats another story). I am pretty sure all 625's have that same fan noise and doesn't mean it is defective or something. Even when power for both TVs are off, I can still hear a quiet noise...

    Code for Philips DVD Player

    I just bought a new Philips VCR/DVD player. I found a code that works for the VCR, but the two codes that were given for the DVD player didn't work. Is there any way of getting around this or using a code from a different brand or something?

    721 record live programming - sometimes records buffer, sometimes not

    Not sure if this is what you are talking about but if you go to options after you press "record" there is a option where it says "record entire event" or something. Also, I have a 625.

    Sports Events?

    Yea, for sporting events they automatically extend the end time because of overtime and an actual game never ends exactly at the time. It would totally suck to miss overtime just because the recording stopped early; so I think it's a pretty nice feature but of course you can manually change it...

    UHF 6.0 problems

    I have a 625 receiver and have never had problems with my UHF remote for my second tv until I bought a new tv for tv1. I did move the receiver a little but not much and is pretty much the same distance as before and definitely less than 200 feet. I've tried adjusting the remote antenna in pretty...

    Codes for Syntax Olevia

    I have just purchased a 27'' LCD Syntax Olevia tv. I looked for tv remote control codes for both "syntax" and "olevia" but couldn't find any. I was hoping if anyone has an Olevia or Syntax that they can help me out or if there is anyone who knows a site to find additional tv codes.

    942 Caller ID problem - Still

    I have SBC phone service and DSL with them. 4- wireless phones (three have Caller ID) 1- Printer/fax modem 1- DSL modem 1- 625 receiver Caller ID usually works for me, but at first it wouldn't work if I was recording something or if I had a timer set. It works about 80% of the time...

    New 942 Feature but does it work?

    So far I've only heard of 942's having this ability...can I also do this with my 625? If not what the heck is the USB on the back used for?

    My 625 does something strange, does yours?

    Yea I have the same problem, but isn't a big problem for me. One movie I recorded, it would have the "glitch" every 10 seconds for a fourth of the movie and then returned to normal. Normally, it only happens occasionally for me.

    Recording from VCR to DVR

    I have a 625 DVR reciever. I was wondering if it would be possible to record from a VHS tape on to the DVR. Before I switched to Dish I recorded some basketball games and I would like to get them on to my DVR for easy access and if something were to happen to the tape as some insurance. If this...
