    522 questions?

    Take a look at this document: http://www.dishnetwork.com/downloads/pdf/technology/remote/5_6_8_Remote_Control.pdf I believe that particular info starts on pg 6. I had to do it on my 522 a couple days ago and it worked fine.

    Timers off because of time change?

    Actually, a 522. It's funny, I don't recall this being a problem during previous time changes. I've had the machine for well over a year now. As a couple others have stated, my weekly/regular timers were also messed up. Thanks for the replies. I guess I'll try to get it to download the...

    Timers off because of time change?

    Just not my weekend with this machine. I see most or all of my timers are an hour late, presumably due to the time change. I just missed West Wing, argh! Is there an easy fix, or do I have to delete them all and reset them?

    522 tv2 remote problems - new twist?

    For what it's worth I finally figured out the problem. As many of you may know (but I did not), if you hold down the "sat" key on the remote for a few seconds the remote goes into a mode where you can program in an address that must be matched on the 522 system info screen for the tv2 remote to...

    522 tv2 remote problems - new twist?

    My problem is it simply will not work at all. I can be standing right in front of the 522 box and pointing the tv2 remote right at it and it still won't work.

    522 tv2 remote problems - new twist?

    I've read a couple different threads about problems with the tv2 remote but none that quite fit the issue I am having. I've had this machine for over a year now with no problems with the tv2 remote. It stopped working last night (or recently, in any case... it had been a few days since I...

    Espn-u

    A poster on a sports forum I frequent posted that a relative who is an insider told him that espnu should be available this weekend.

    Timer padding and record plus

    Yes, it did use to ignore the padding automatically and record both shows on the same tuner. I think maybe you had to be in dual mode for it to work that way. I find this mildly annoying also.

    NBR question?

    A crude solution might be to leave them all without the extra padding and set a timer to record the show after Cold Case on Sundays.

    Name Based Recording Discussion (L232 Software)

    You know, I think there are still very ocassional video glitches, but they aren't accompanied by that incredibly annoying popping/beeping sound when they happen so they are much less noticeable. That said, there does seem to be fewer audio and video glitches than ever with this update, and...

    Name Based Recording Discussion (L232 Software)

    I just added multi-sport to my account and as I was browsing the new channels noticed that the 522 apparently now downloads new guide data as soon as you move across a "no information available" space in the guide. If it does work like that all the time, that's another nice little feature...

    Name Based Recording Discussion (L232 Software)

    If a scheduled recording is categorized as a sport event in the description, it automatically sets the "end late" option to 60 minutes. I like this because there is always the danger that a game will run long, particularly if you're watching espn or something and they're showing a bunch of...

    Name Based Recording Discussion (L232 Software)

    I see it automatically pads the end of sporting events when you record them. Very nice. A feature that my old ultimate tv had that I have missed.

    Name Based Recording Discussion (L232 Software)

    Got mine this morning, version 232 here also. Here's a minor quibble that I don't see scanning the thread. When recording back to back programs in dual mode, it won't record them on the same tuner because of the 3 minute overlap (I presume). It's a minor thing, but I never had this problem...

    522 Version L2.08 Update

    This wasn't quite the problem I experienced. The Start Over button was active, but hitting it did nothing - it simply put you into the program in progress, and interestingly enough you couldn't rewind it either. I experienced this a couple times on the first day I had 2.08, but haven't since...

    522 Version L2.08 Update

    Is it just me, or does the "start over" button no longer work when trying to start watching a recording in progress (which is recording on tuner 1 when you're watching tv 1)? There seems to be no way to watch a recording in progress on the same tv/tuner you're on except to join it in progress...

    Thanks, Sparkman. I appreciate the info.

    Dish Network to Drop FSN Chicago effective 11/29

    Go Illini! I figure you're right about those games. By the way, I read on another forum that the word is that Dish is working as fast as they can to add multi sport to all of our accounts, but that it takes a little time to run through them all.

    Dish Network to Drop FSN Chicago effective 11/29

    Thanks for the reply. The games I'm interested in are part of a tourney out of Las Vegas so I guess there's a very good chance that they're picking it up from some other part of FSN or elsewhere. I guess I'll take another look at the FSN site and see if I can find some schedules.

    Dish Network to Drop FSN Chicago effective 11/29

    Yeah, that's the situation I'm in too (with actually only a couple Illini basketball Vegas tourney games that Fox Chicago has that won't be available to me otherwise). Do you know how often college sports games like that show up on other of the regional FSN networks? I'll sign on for multi...

    Thanks. Sounds like I might have a little while longer to wait to hear back from them.

    Dish Network to Drop FSN Chicago effective 11/29

    dmigut - who did you email? I submitted a message about it through the customer service form on the Dish site a couple days ago and haven't heard back yet.

    Dish Network to Drop FSN Chicago effective 11/29

    Yeah, I'm going to be missing two U of Illinois basketball games because of this. Very irritating.

    522 L2.07 Update

    Had a few sync problems last night so that's not quite fixed. Overall, 2.07/2.06 is still behaving better for me than previous 3 or 4 months worth of updates.

    522 L2.07 Update

    I've had 2.07 all day and so far it looks like another step forward towards getting rid of playback glitches. I just watched a recorded show while recording two others, and glitches were fairly minimal - an improvement over 2.06 (which was itself an improvement over 2.0x for me). No sync...
