I'm using TVersity on my WHS machine and I can play content just fine from the Hopper. No real need for it though because I either use my Yamaha AVR or Logitech Revue.

I used the online chat and was able to get 2 hoppers and 2 joeys for a $200 upgrade fee. I also signed up for the protection plan and the installation is free. No complaints here.

I loved the 721 receivers. I had two of them and they had a couple of features that none of the newer DVRs have even with all the stuff that was promised but not delivered. They did require a reboot now and then and those always took forever but overall they were really good to me. I also like...

I also found the picture quality of the 922 to be better than the receiver it replaced (622).

Dishstore.net rocks because because of the great customer service.

If the Dish Home Protection Plan covers remote controls (and I believe it does), you can sign up for it, Dish will send you a remote for free and you can cancel as soon as you have your new remote.

I'm no expert by any means but I think that you have to connect both outputs of the LNB to the switch.

Be aware that some people have had problems when using a ClubDish code with a local installer. They sometimes "forget" to tell DishNetwork that you are using a code. I would not let that stop me from ordering from a local installer though. The quality of the install seems to be better on average...

Just to confirm what Pepper said, the guide on the 721 does show programs correctly that are less than 30 minutes. I have never tried to record them so I don't know whether that works correctly or not but at least the guide is correct. Bimmerbenz

The price you quoted for the Dish DVR is the retail price of the machine with no strings attached. If you are willing to commit to Dish Network for some time (usually 1 year), give them a call and unless you have already received a promotional upgrade from them within the last year, they will...

I had a 522 receiver running for 9 months from a different phone number than the one Dish had without any problems. bimmerbenz

I bet he was made the head of the Creative Wealth Restructering Department. This department was recently created to come up with new ideas of how E* can screw people out of their hard-earned cash faster than ever before in any conceivable way. Bimmerbenz

The dish that is pointing further east is for the 61.5 bird.

Got my yellow card last Saturday. Did anybody else notice their 721 dialing out to activate your programming with the new card? That's what mine did at least. It did not report the PPV on the 721 at that time though. I also tried my old blue card and it's still working too. All my timers and...

Sorry that I didn't respond until now but yes, it only recorded 1 minute of the second 30-minute show. Bimmerbenz

Did you ever see what someone posted on this thread that you started back in April on dbstalk.com and try out the SouthwestBell phone jack? Bimmerbenz

There is also a DishPro Plus Twin LNBF in the works that should be available any day now. It should be less expensive than the DPP44 switch and with a DPP seperator, it will also only require one line to go inside. Bimmerbenz

If your 522 does this than it might be my receiver or just a bug that occurs only under certain circumstances. All I know is that Monday last week and again this week, I was watching an already recorded show and had 2 timers set, 30 minutes apart and on 2 different channels, both with one minute...

As far as I know, if you order the DVR through Dish directly, they will send someone out to install everything necessary and if you order from a retailer, you either have to install it yourself or pay someone to come out and do the install. Be aware that Dish would only be able to give you...

Ned: I don't know if this is the case for you but I had this exact problem with timers where I changed the padding on already existing, recurring timers. From my own observation, it seems that if you create a recurring timer and try to change the padding later on, after a reboot the padding...

I never push the Guide button anymore. If I want to get to the guide, I go through the menu. It's a hassle but better than waiting for the receiver to reboot. Bimmerbenz

I wouldn't even go that far. Most of them probably think that the hardware that Dish sells/leases to customers are the satellites. Bimmerbenz

They may also deny you for having a negative item on your credit report that is related to satellite TV service, even if paid. For example, if you have a paid collection from Comcast, they may deny based on this alone and you could have a score of 800+ and still wouldn't get approved. Happened...

How many times can you go up the ladder and back down, juggling all three switches, without falling off? Bimmerbenz
