I purchased an actual "Optimized for dish network" EHD from WD, assuming that would fix the black screen issue. That didn't help either.

Update: My hard drive crashed this morning. Lost everything. However, this is probably what was going on that was causing all of my freeze's and issues that I originally blamed on the Software update. Great timing, I would normally have copied my recordings to the External drive at the first...

Crashtastic I'm not sure if this is widespread, but since my Hopper Updated to S502, it's been crashing and stuttering and freezing continuously. It's been fine up until the update. Now if I reboot it, I can watch about 20 minutes of a show before it starts to freeze for 5 to 10 seconds at a...

I have the same issue. When I opened up my timer list, the first one showing was number 7. 1 through 6 are missing, but still recording shows. If I attempt to edit the timer through the guide, it shows "Invalid" on the location, and timer type etc. I can't change the priority, and it won't let...

Yeah, mine is doing that as well this morning. 118-121 are missing. So far, the rest of them have returned today.

Right, like I said, it comes back overnight, but then loses them again. It's lost them 3 times in the last 7 days. It's never lost them prior to last weekend.

I have lost all of my Channel logos 3 times this week. I open the guide, and some are there, and some are missing, but if I scroll up and down, soon they are all gone. They don't come back until morning. They are currently all missing for the 3rd time. It seems to be a new thing since the last...

True, I've got it to do autotune, but I've had to select the show, then go find the timer, and edit it to get to the option of auto-tune. It's just way too many steps when it used to just take one screen.

Thanks man! I'll attempt to get past my hangup(s).

I Just got a 922 Yesterday (Monday Sept 5th) I have been trained over the years to turn off the DVR at night (press the power button to turn the lights off the front for TV1 and TV2) Now, each time I attempt to access my Sling on the 922, it turns on the TV2 lights, and doesn't turn them...

Good point. I guess if I leave stuff on the EHD, there would be no issue with transferring prior to a crash. Many seem to be happy with Western Digital EHD's for these units. Any recommendation there? I'll be honest, I have the worst luck with (internal) hard drives, I work in IT, and have had...

Greetings! I have a 722 that I've had for many years now. It's always worked fine. For the last month, it's been refusing to skip back or rewind any live feeds. It just freezes and then eventually jumps forward to Live. If I watch something that is recorded, all the controls work fine. It's...

My Panasonic 42" (PZ42700u) did the same thing. No sound, small picture in the upper left corner. I wish you could test the thing without spending $2.95 on the movie to see that it doesn't work.

After trying to access the Dish on Demand menu repeatedly for days, it started working today. Who knows why? But it did. Now, if they can just clear up the other glitches... I've got the small screen, top left, after using TV2. Couldn't play the 1080P version of "I am Legend" on my 1080p...

Same problem with my 722 as well. L610-Glitch-O-matic.

Good to know. I don't mind the second dish, if that's truly the best option, and not just the easiest or cheapest option. The installer put it below the first dish, and it can't be seen from the road, so it's not that big of a deal. It would've been nice if the installer had told me the...

I finally got the Vip722 and HD upgrade yesterday, and I had requested that they install a Dish 1000 on my house, rather than install an additional dish. Dish Network told me they would always try to replace the dish rather than add another one. The installer (from Star West) told me that Dish...

L4.12 was installing as I turned my 522 on last night at 11:24pm PST. Once it was done, it needed to re-download the program menu as well, and then it came up fine. They seem to have fixed the major problems so far, but since it was late, I didn't have much time to play with it.

My second 522 Died on Saturday morning. I hit the themes button, and it wouldn't download anything, it just said "error". so I did a front panel reset, and it never came back. It would boot up, check the dish 0-5, then show the picture for half a second, then lock up and reboot again. I...

I received my new 522 on Thursday, and it so far, it's been stellar! Not a single lockup or reset. I'm very happy with it. One thing that they went backwards on though. My 510 DVR would pause, and then you could hit slow-mo and it would go right from where you paused it. Both of the 522's jump...

My 522 has now reset itself 18 times since it was turned on Monday afternoon. Two times that I've seen, it came up and did a disk check after freezing up. Probably due to data corruption with all the sudden resets. I can see why they would want to eliminate the power strip for testing...

Power Trip Strip I had a 522 installed yesterday, and it was locking up while the installer was still there. After he left, it continued to freeze or reset itself every 20 minutes or so, and so I finally called Dish. They used the Powerstrip as a scape-goat as well, so while on the phone, I...
