I have been a Dish customer for a little over a year. We have moved(note that past tense) and was upgrading to HD at the same time. First they tell me I don't qualify, this I was told 3 times. On the 4th try someone finally let it slip that I didn't meet their new credit checking requirements to...

Ok fellas, I need some major help before I go postal on Dish "Advanced Level" tech support. I have had a 811 and a 510 for about 4 months now. Everything has been working just fine and dandy, no problems whatsoever. Suddenly out of the blue about 3 weeks ago the remote for the 811 quit...

Woke up to an error code: 0457. "A serious problem has been detected with your hard disk drive". Great. Had 4 programs on there that I hadn't watched yet, and a ton of stuff waiting to record in the timers. Can anyone tell me exactly what the problem is? Called tech support and am getting a new...

Welcome me to the group. I am moving from Voom and have been happy so far with Dish, tho I just had it installed yesterday. Now I have a few questions: (to pre-qualify these questions, we are subscribed to the America's Evertyhing, and I do mean EVERYTHING ;-) 1) Fox Channel - not the sports...

Here's what I got. A nice 42" HD Mits in the main room and a little 19" SD Magnavox in the bedroom. The Mag will be upgraded hopefully soon. This is what I want. DVR capability for both rooms, HD for both rooms without killing the bank. I thought the 942 seemed like the option that I needed...

What is Dish Network's number? I hate to ask this here, but I can't find it anywhere?

I have looked into DirectTV and they want a ridiculous amount of cash for the HD DVR system. Dish seems to offer all the channels I had ( minus all the HD channels) for about the same amount of monthly cash. I have a few questions though. The website offers the 942, which I hear is actually in...

I am watching Tomb Raider: Cradle of Life on SHOX atm. For some reason, the movie is in English as it's supposed to be. The scene in Japan where she speaks to the people on the boat, she spoke in Japanese, the subtitle was in Spanish. I know the first time I saw this movie, the sub was in...

I know this isn't Voom related but I can't seem to find the info that I want. Can anyone recommend a forum or site dedicated to DVR's or something close? Phaetos

Ok, maybe it's just me. I have had VaVaVoom(still sound stupid saying that) since I got V* last year. It shows the ad for the new channels, but I don't have any of them listed in my PG. Guess I should do a reboot before I ask a stupid question huh? Edit: I'm an idiot. Reboot fixed it. Now...

I coulda swore I just saw a banner ad up there that said something about a DVR with no rental fees, and it had a Voom remote sitting on top of it. But damned if I can't get that banner ad to make a re-appearance by refreshing. I keep getting the Voom HDTV, Dishstore, and ValueElectronics ads...

I just saw a comemrcial for Direct and they state specifically they will have 1500 HD channels, not programs, channels! That is a lot. Anyone know something about this? I don't dare ask in the Direct forum or at AVS, lest I be flamed beyond recognition for not having D* to begin with.

Ok. A, as in 1, Voom satellite was sold to Echostar. I believe I saw a post earlier that one was also sold to Dish. But aren't EchoStar and Dish the same company? Or are the two sales the same satellite? I am deeply depressed about this sale, but we all knew it was coming at some time. I guess...

Sorry fellas but I didn't want this question getting lost in the other thread about getting a refund for the OTA coax line. Am I reading those posts right that we should be dumping the diplexer on the back of the boxes, and have a seperate coax run to each box for OTA as this will improve OTA...

I saw a new ad for Voom on ESPN this morning. It said something about 6 months free or discounted and a 3 room installation for $1. That part I definatley remember. 3 rooms for $1! That should get more people looking into Voom that didn't like the huge installation fees they went to. Phaetos
