    Connecting Hopper 3 to DVD Recorder or VCR

    I just got the new Hopper 3 from DISH and love it. The main Hopper receiver is in the bedroom and the "Joey" is in the living room. I have 2 combo VCR/DVD Recorders. The one in the living room hooks up fine with the rca a/v cables. However, when I hook it up to the main Hopper in the bedroom, it...

    vcr hook connection

    Help! We moved last week and I stupidly forgot to write down how everything was connected before it was packed. I have TWO DVR boxes (one the 722k) with four TV's connected to them. When the local DISH installer came to put in a new dish and hook everything up, he did not know how to hook up...

    is it the dish or what?

    I have two DVR's, one old and one new. The older one is a 625 and the newer one is a 722. I had a few other boxes die, so that's why I upgraded recently to the 722, so I can hook up the USB external hard drive in case it happens again. I've had DISH for about 4-5 years now, I think. Anyway...

    remote not working well in one room

    Can you please explain how to change the remote ID address, if that was a fix for the problem of one DVR recording on the other? If it is something menu-driven, I should be able to do it... Thanks, Suzanne

    remote not working well in one room

    Hey, guess what...it was the antenna! My husband accidentally knocked the box on the floor the other day, and I had made sure that the other wires/connectors were tightened, but I did not see the antenna. It was half-unscrewed. Now her remote works fine!! LOL!! That was simple. Now I feel...

    remote not working well in one room

    Guys, I am not a techie so some of this doesn't make any sense to me. I looked at the diagram and I guess this is the back of the receiver? The receiver is in the master room. The other TV that shares that DVR receiver is my mother-in-law's bedroom. She has no receiver, just cables go from...

    remote not working well in one room

    Thanks...this is a bit complicated for me. Which one is TV 1 and which one is TV 2? Is the one in my mother-in-law's room TV 1? If I can't figure this out, will DISH send someone out to fix it for me and treat it as a (free) service call, do you think? And also, it seems that when I...

    remote not working well in one room

    Does anyone else have this problem? I have two 625 boxes, which each have two TV's connected (in four different rooms). My mother-in-law moved in with us in June and she hardly uses hers because she has just been watching the big one in the living room with us. I record and watch a lot, and...

    sound goes out a lot with 625

    I had also sent an email to Dish. This is the response I got from them today: Dear Ms. Lanoue, Thank you for your e-mail. Our engineering department is aware of this issue; it has been determined the issue is software related and we are actively working to resolve it as soon as...

    sound goes out a lot with 625

    prcacher--no, I don't have anyone who can take a look. I'm fairly sure it is the satellite hookup because it didn't happen before I got that (and it's only been a few weeks--just happened as soon as I got the sat). The TV was previously hooked up the same, but with a Comcast cable box (I didn't...

    sound goes out a lot with 625

    Sorry, I don't know what any of that means, can you explain? I didn't hook it up, DISH or one of their local installers hooked it up. And, my TV is a 52" rear projection, I believe, don't know if that matters or not. Thanks!

    sound goes out a lot with 625

    I have had Dish Network for about a month with a 625 on two TV's. The TV I mostly watch is an RCA big screen model number P52928. I have noticed this occasional problem. It usually happens when I go to turn up the volume with my TV remote. The sound goes out. The only way to fix it is to...

    DVR 522/625 features request thread

    I would like to see a different sort of favorites--when I was on Comcast, they had a favorites button on the remote. You could choose which channels you wanted as favorites and then just hit the button and surf to each of your favorites. I miss that.

    question about DVR capabilities

    Is there any receiver with Dish that will allow you to record two shows at one time, or watch one show while you record another, without having a second TV? Thanks... Here is the reason I am asking. I had Comcast cable up until last week. I have three TV's and all three had digital cable...
