    24 month commitment

    My wife and I are contemplating having DISH set up in her name and to drop ATT/DISH. My question is, if we decide to do that are we locked into the programming for 24 months or can we go to a lower tier of programming after the six month promo is over?

    Moving from 522

    So with the news of the upcoming external storage I guess it is time for me to start thinking about upgrading my receiver. I have a 522, but would love to have the external option with a 622 or 722. My biggest problem is my kids have TONS of shows saved and we don't want to lose them. Would...

    New 522 Menu

    Went to watch CSI last night late and noticed I had VOD menu items on the DVR screen. How is this going to work with the 522's puny 100gb drive?

    Dish and HTPC

    So what would be the best way to set up an HTPC with Dish? I was wanting to use two tv's and be able to record off four receivers (that way i can record two shows while watching two totally separate shows). I would also like to be able to watch what is on the pc on both televisions.

    Ppv

    I have had Dish Network for about four months now. I was browsing their site and saw a couple of PPV movies I wanted to see. I went to the PPV channels and low and behold there were only four channels showing movies and none of them had the movies I wanted to watch. What is up? Is this a...

    Dish 522 and another receiver

    Ok. Now that single mode is up and running. What kind of wiring do I need to hook up an older receiver to tv2 and still see my recorded programs on tv2? Someone had told me this could be done, but I can't find how to wire it.

    522 Hard Drive problems

    I have had my 522 for about three months now. Yesterday when we got up we had to allow the dvr to delete all of our programming because of diagnostics or something.

    Blocking adult channels

    How do I block the adult ppv channels on my 522 so they don't show up on the guide? I don't want my 7 year old and 9 year old flipping by them accidentally and have to answer a bunch of questions on those long road trips.

    Single TV mode

    I am pretty new to DISH so please bear with me. I have read in several different places something about a single tv mode on the 522 and how it is not activated yet. What is single tv mode and what will be the advantage to having it? :confused:
