Not sure if this has been asked or anyone has thought of this, but does anyone know if DISH plans to offer an software upgrade to the ViP receivers that would allow any ViP receiver in a household connected to the LAN to playback content from it's attached hard drive? We have a ViP622 and 2...

Recently, in our local market (Local ABC channel is Owned by ABC/Disney), there have been ads running from Disney/ABC warning viewers that come Sept. 2, they may lose their ABC and ESPN channels if an agreement isn't struck. (Basically, Time Warner is doing a Charlie hardball play)... The...

I received an email from a friend and in the email is said: "All films will stream free of charge on HBO: Documentaries: The Alzheimer's Project: Homepage and will be offered for free on multiple platforms by participating television service providers." The latter part of the sentence seems to...

So, I went through the problems with my DISH 3900 to ViP211k upgrade last week and finally received the 211K yesterday and got around to activating it with the CSR today. While activating it, I was commenting how the regular ViP211 was able to receive over 24 Digital channels on the OTA tuner...

Well, so much for my hope that a Receiver upgrade would go off without issue. I called last week to upgrade an old 3900 receiver to ViP211k. I called the DISH number listed on their website and spoke to an agent (clearly offshore). I recorded the entire conversation as well (for my Quality...

Anyone else record or watch Pushing Daisies on ABC, more specifically, WTVD Raleigh tonight? I just watched the episode from earlier tonight and the audio is broken to the point of being almost unwatchable. The show was less than 2Gig so I expect it's all MPEG4 at this point. Correction: Eli...

Our local CBS Affiliate conducted a test during their 6pm news tonight. For 1 minute, they replaced the transmission on their legacy channel (Analog) with a message indicating that "If you are seeing this message, you need to upgrade to a digital receiver or if you are watching Cable or...

Just curious with the Card Swap pending as to what happens if I purchase a receiver from one of the Vendors advertising on this site just after the new cards come out. Will my purchased receiver come with a new card or old card requiring me to pay $50 to DISH for a swap.

Well, I will be getting the 3rd replacement ViP622 in as many months.... The sad thing is this last one was a unit whose HDMI port actually worked - the original and longest lasting one never did. The first one lasted well over a year, then it's hard drive died one day when I disconnected...

I have a friend who is thinking of switching to DISH. He wants to have two ViP622's and receive the equivalent of Top250/Locals with DISH-HD. I told him that DVR Advantage would be the way to go with two DVRs. He called DISH to ask how much and was told that his monthly bill would be...

Okay, with the price increases happening, I decided to cancel the Superstations since having lost the Network DNS feeds in December for $12/month, we were left with Superstations and National PBS for $7.50 per month. Didn't really watch the Superstations but enjoyed having PBS, especially since...

Lost my DNS channels and got my latest bill. I am now showing a charge for 'SuperStations Package KWGN' on my bill for $5.99 and also a retroactive charge for Dec. bill too. I thought WGN was included in the DISHHD Gold pack. It's not on any of my previous bills and the only thing I lost...
