    VIP612 Composite Output

    I just replaced a 508 that worked great with a VIP 612--and have had problems with the receiver completely freezing up. This has happened 4 times in the 3 days that I have had the receiver. Have been able to restart the receiver doing a power button restart. I have not seen a fix for this...

    Statement from DISH - Not Getting the New HD?

    I just called tech support at Dish and will be getting the 1000.4 dish installed tomorrow AM. Very friendly transaction and courteous. Because I am a 11 year subscriber with DHPP, it appears that there will be no charge for the install as he did not inform me of the $15 charge.

    Not recording entire movie

    A couple weeks ago I posted a similar thread on my 622. Recordings were being cut off in the middle. It was recommended that I do a "power button" reboot. Knock on wood, all's well since then.

    VIP 622 Playback Cut Short on Recorded Events

    While viewing recorded events, my 622 has cutoff the recording with considerable time left in the recording 4 different times. The DVR shows considerable time still available while in playback mode when it cuts off. I try and view the program again- but it cuts off again. Most of the recorded...

    Fox Business Channel!

    I received this standard email back from Dish. I just wish they would reply with something more than a canned response. I join with all others in hoping that Dish carry this channel sooner rather than later. Maybe if enough people would write in, they would move quicker on this...

    ViP 622 & 722 Running Bug Thread

    I have had my 622 for 4 months now and have one continuing problem. I have my 622 in the single mode. At least 1-2 times a day, in both live and recorded, I will just loose my picture and sound and the 622 will go to a blank screen. I must do a soft boot to correct this problem, and all is...

    How has your 622 performed for you?

    Have had the 622 installed for 3 weeks now and am generally very satisfied with it. One issue that I have had was the total loss of picture and sound on recorded programming on 3 different occasions. All would be working fine and then I would get some real loud sound noise and then all I...

    VIP 622 - No sound on TV2

    We have tried both the power button and power cord reboot. It usually works for a day or so and then reverts back to the same problem. He usually doesn't loose all the channels--just most of them. This has happened several times. The receiver works well (although sluggish) when it is...

    Need help-Nightmare 622 install

    The installer used a DPP 44 switch. Dish was installed and attached to the facia board on the house. The signal strength is around 65-70 on 110 and 119 and around 60 with 129 and 80 on the 148, located next to the SD (when he finishes repointing). Installer states that it has a solid mounting...

    SportsTime Ohio launched on DISH Network

    I have a question on Sports Net Ohio being available to Dish customers with HD bronze and above. Is this only available on a regional basis or on a nationwide basis. I live in Montana and have been following the Indians for 50+ years and would be thrilled if this was nationwide.

    Dish 622 - $99 Upgrade Details

    Everything went smooth here. Installer will be here on the l5th. I suggested that I would not need a installer as I already have a dish at 61.5 for CBS HD and did not want the super dish at 129. She said that was not an option. Also, I am an annual payer with my owned 921 receiver (I get one...

    VOOM install problems with DVR 921`

    Dfergie, where does one find these separators? Your URL that you refer to states that Dish does not "support" these Separators. I cannot find them thru Dish Store or any other location. Does this void the warranty of my 921 and the DPP44 switch?

    VOOM install problems with DVR 921`

    I had a professional installer in yesterday to install VOOM HD and was not able to get 921 to read the new DPP44 switch. Currently I had a Dish twin on 110/119 and a Dish Dual on 148 for networks with a DP34 switch with a 921 & 508 receiver. Installer put in a new DPP44 switch, a dish dual on...

    921 DVI-I output to HDMI

    Believe me, I have checked all these things out. I have been using the DVI-D cable with HDMI connection without any luck. I also have made sure that the blue light is on and have checked that I had the correct input on the DLP. I have a second 921 receiver and the Mitsubishi repairman put...
