    Could I be under contract with Radio Shack?

    I don't have the original paperwork from when I got my disk installed. I have had it since May 2004 and all of a sudden my apartment complex is giving me grief over it. I was under the impression that I was under a two year contract with Dish but found out that I wasn't. The lady told me to...

    Considering a plasma, will I have to change my 522?

    I am really looking into getting a HDTV plasma but I am curious if I will have to change anything with my 522 hookup? Will the 522 work with it or will I have to change receivers?

    Duplicate timer workaround?

    This gd thing is going to make me toss it out the window. Why do they insist on not letting us record something twice? Most of the time they are quite wrong. I'm trying to tape the British Open in the morning on tnt and right after that on abc. It won't let me insisting it's a duplicate timer...

    522-All my timers Say 'No Info Available'

    Although they are recording when I go to look at my timers they all say no info available but it's in the slot where I want somethng to record. It's recording and labelling the programs correctly but I just have to guess what's going to record. Also when I try to look ahead to see what's coming...

    Timer won't stop recording when it should.

    I have 1st and 10 on a "record all new" timer. It's an half hour show that comes on mon-fri but if I don't go and manually stop the recording it will record forever. Yesterday it recorded for 5 hours and some change. Any suggestions?

    Could it be??

    Have we finally got an update that isn't full of bugs. Besides the audio drop out problem that happens with recorded events nothing else seems to be happening that shouldn't. With me anyway. I thought this nbr was overated but I love it. I love being able to skip recording once, without deleting...

    Recordings don't work after recording.

    This has happened two nights in a row. Tonight I record law and order svu while watching nypd blue on tv 2. The recording records, it shows the 1 hr 4 minutes like usual. I go to watch it and it shows 000 minutes. I try to start over and the color leaves the screen and it doesn't let me view it...

    Anyone use 522 to pay their bill?

    Now that we have the option to do this has anyone used it successfully with the 522 yet? I have a bill due and simply put, I want to play with this new option. Should I just pay online like I have been doing or is it safe for us?

    Invisible timers?

    I have the late south park on weekly timer but I don't see it in the dvr timers menu. When I try to create a new timer for it, it gives me the timer conflict error but shows the original timer I have set and the new one I'm trying to set, both on tv2. I did a hard and soft reboot but it's still...

    People with nba league pass

    I ordered league pass yesterday and the nba channel isn't showing up. Also the nba league pass channells aren't available at all. I can't scroll through them or anything. 560 is blacked out. My question: Guys that already have this, can you go to your channell 560? I am getting a ridiculous run...

    Blurry menus, etc.

    I have something weird going on where my menus, guides, dvr stuff shows up very blurry. The actual picture is crystal clear. This only happens on tv1 too, all this same stuff is good on tv2. Can anyone tell me what this is?

    3 minute recordings

    It has gotten to the point where if I'm not right there watching a recording it might not be there. Why is my dvr recording only 3 minutes of something I have scheduled? Is it a way to get it to stop? Thank goodness for suprnova because without that I would miss my shows.

    Tv settings problem.

    My tv is having a problem when it comes to stripes and lines. It seems that the stuff that is striped is moving and changing colors. I watch a lot of golf and a lot of the shirts do this thing where it looks like it's having trouble focusing. It doesn't do it for hours on end but at some...

    Should I change receivers?

    Although the 522 started out strong for me it has been a miserable failure for a while. Last night, I program "death in Gaza, Bullsh!t, and Pulse" to record. This morning when I go to check them out they are all labeled correctly but they recorded the wrong thing. Death in Gaza recorded part of...

    Wrongly named recordings??

    lol, this is absolutely becoming funny to me. I record the 1am cst X-play mon-fri. So this morning I go to look for it and I didn't see it. But I did notice that I had three recordings of Rescue me. I go to check one of the rescue me recordings and there is X-play. For this to happen wouldn't...

    What does 2.02 fix?

    I remember reading yesterday about the update that is supposed to fix something but can't remember where I read it or what it fixed. Can someone inform me. I got the update this morning and that's why I'm wondering.

    Check switch?

    I have been getting this message for the past couple of weeks and it's even starting to interupt timers. I turn my tv on and it says that there is a problem with some switch or something and to check it but when I check it all is well. Everything is green and ok and when I do a test that turns...

    Updates?

    I'm new to this forum so I may simply be behind. I just found out yesterday from a csr that my software is not up to date on my 522. She tried to walk me through it but the option of "system upgrades" is not available. My questions; Is this normal and how long after a update is it usually...
