    External Hard Drive Archive Bug Thread

    There was nothing of value said to me whatsoever. The few answers they gave me demonstrated that they were clueless beyond even my expectation. But of course I didn't talk to a real technician. I did make sure to have one of the problem drives connected and powered on when they did the...

    External Hard Drive Archive Bug Thread

    Adam, Thank you, thank you, thank you! Short version: I read your post which inspired me to call, in spite of their BS I insisted that they just send a rehit to both of my receivers. Now everything seems to work. I had been having the 866 reformatt message on one of my two receivers...

    External Hard Drive Archive Bug Thread

    What they told you is complete BS. My 866 occurred on a 622 on which it had continuously connected and had been working fine for weeks. After the change it gets an 866 on that receiver, but works fine if I connect it to my other receiver.

    External Hard Drive Archive Bug Thread

    Thanks Ditydan, I found the chat. Hutch123, if I understand correctly, you didn't do anything to make the HD start cooperating again. Scott's chat was just impetus to get you to check again if it worked, correct? Mine still didn't work last night. My household keys were originally...

    External Hard Drive Archive Bug Thread

    Can you point me to "Scott's chat info"? I don't know what that means. Sorry, I'm not a regular on this forum, I just come when DISH has such a major screw-up that my system doesn't work adequately.

    Agreed. I'm in the same boat. And I incorrectly called my 866 788 in one of the previous messages. My principal problem is the reformat message one one problem DVR. I'd love to speak to an engineer or senior tech and help them troubleshoot the problem. I'm a mechanical engineer for a...

    External Hard Drive Archive Bug Thread

    I did a further test with a 3rd hard drive (new). I allowed the bedroom 622 to format it. I tranferred one program to the hard drive. I then moved the drive to the living room 622. I got the message that it can only be used with one DVR and would I like to reauthorize it. **this was not...

    External Hard Drive Archive Bug Thread

    Please elaborate on the "rehit" and selecting "yes"? I don't know what you mean by that. I apologize if it is common knowledge. Is this something the CSR had to initiate, or something one could do on his own? I have an external hard drive with the 788 "reformat" problem. It was attached...

    Erratic jump to Live TV with 622/722

    Yes, I think I've had that happen. More often I have problems with the skip forward and back buttons not doing exactly the right thing when used in combination with pause and scan forward/back. Often I'll scan forward and overshoot by a little bit so I'll immediately hit the skip back...

    New Pocketdish soon?

    I'm also becoming and HD snob, and I also don't need HD resolution on my Archos or PocketDish. I had the 500e but it disappeared on my last trip to Singapore, so I've been looking for a replacement and decided to hold out for the new offerings from Archos. I'll believe it when I see it, I...
