    Dish reruns every 3 hours ridiculous??

    Basically it's not Dish that's determining what's shown and when, it's the content providers. If you switch to Direct or Cable, you'll get the same channels, with the same formats..

    Pioneer 640H-S DVR Setup with Dish Network

    You would have to have the Pioneer use TV1 on the 322, and then use TV2 for your TV. TV1 will support the IR blaster from your Pioneer unit to accept remote signals. TV2 is RF only and will NOT work with the IR blaster. So basically you need two connections to your TV. One from TV2 (so...

    Recording on Dish with 2 VCR's 2 rooms

    My suggestion: Ditch the wife. Seriously, DVR is tons easier to deal with than tape. Unless she keeps ALL the episodes she records forever. Even then, she can just tape those she wants to keep..

    NHL uses Dish DVR

    That'd be stupid, I would think. Sure they'll get the Dish feed but it'd be delayed and NOWHERE near as good as other DVR equipment out there, especially the feed from the production rooms. More than likely they're using a DVR with a jog/shuttle wheel so they can do precise tracks

    Court tv?

    Hm... Yeah, it says CourtTV in the guide on 204, but when tuned it has the Biography channel bug. Currently playing 'Murder She Wrote' Atlanta area /w Top120

    PS3's Does ANYBODY still want one?

    I don't think that's true. And that's also comparing two different things. The PS3 has the graphics engine, but the Wii has the more interesting control system. I don't know why people keep saying the Wii is only a kiddy system. I think it's more like an 'Everyone' system whereas the PS3 is a...

    Interesting situation

    Pretty much what you said, you didn't call up and agree to the lease. It's just like a cellphone. If you don't want a contract, you have to pay full price for the phone. They make up for the cost of equipment in the fact that you say you'll pay them at least x amount for y amount of time. Also...

    If I just terminate my contract early...

    Nope, I believe the wait is a lot longer than that, if they'll even let you back as a 'new customer' without using someone else's information (Which I think qualifies as some sort of theft or whatnot?)

    What should we do if someone sends a PM concering illegal activity?

    Okay, I think I get the basic idea of account stacking (Getting a secondary reciever on your account and letting the neighbor use it) And this is probably a stupid question which I know the answer to, is it a problem to let the neighbor use my Dish (meaning, connect to my LNB) to save having...

    Install Delayed Again and again and again and again

    The only problem I have with DirectTV is ALL of their boxes are slow as hell. Especially on the guides.

    Dish Network Dolby Digital

    I have the little blue light too! Mainly see it on HBO and PPV. I think (but can't be sure) that i've seen it once or twice on Cinemax. Most non-premium channels will never have DD though.

    The reason Dish lost a customer today.

    What's funny is, i've had Dish installed on both my rental places. First an apartment, then a townhouse. I actually bothered to get the written letters from both managements. The installers NEVER asked for the 'landlord' letter. When I brought it out and asked 'Hey, do you need this?' they said...

    Will a Dish DVR 508 remote work on a DVR 522?

    If they aren't UHF, you can't 'add' UHF to the remotes. If it just says IR on the back of the remote, then no. You'd be better off buying another UHF remote rather than trying to find an alternative to get those working.

    Dish audit and VOIP

    I believe the DSL filter only keeps the DSL from dropping when you pick up the phone line, it won't somehow 'improve' the connection for the satellite reciever. No suggestions though

    Cable Internet and Dish, Is it Possible?

    Don't know what the Diplexers can handle, but here's what my cable modem reports: Downstream: 687000000 Hz Locked Upstream: 30992000 Hz Ranged

    Cable Internet and Dish, Is it Possible?

    1. You can often get a Cable modem without subscribing to TV, it just costs more. 2. Diplexing the signals probably won't work. 3. The recivers can dial in over Vonage. I do it with my 522. Don't know about Packet8. DSL often isn't worth the trouble. If you had problems once, you will again...

    Echostar issues statement regarding Tivo

    Ultimate TV was around the same time as Replay TV. Unfortunately their marketing departments didn't do so well. Came out not long after Windows 98 I think.

    Toslink (optical audio) feed 2 into 1 - products?

    That caught me as funny, 1. I doubt an audiophile would ever have anything digital 2. It's optical. Just light passing through a tube, I can't see how a TOSLINK splitter would degrade the signal unless it shaded the light. Sorry, i'm not trying to flame or anything, I just found some odd...

    Few questions about dual tuner DVRs

    522 acts that way as well.

    522 freezing - CSR blames power strip??

    I have pretty much anything with a harddrive on a UPS. Some of them will regulate power, and the more mission-critical stuff is on those UPS's. DVRs just get a standard battery backup (APC 500/725) just to keep over/under voltages a little suppressed. They'll switch to battery on certain events...
