    vip722 will not record OTA

    I have had a vip722 for a few years now, and it has a nice OTA antenna attached. On all of the channels that I record OTA, the signal is always between 90 and 100%. I noticed a week or so ago that some of my shows were not recording. If I go into history, it says that the show was recorded...

    Major guide issues on one of two vip722 receivers

    I got home tonight and turned on my downstairs receiver. It had no guide information available. So I did the standard check switch and let it download my guide info (appeared to be successful). Now sometimes it is showing guide info and sometimes not. Also, though all of my dish passes still...

    Southeastern sky

    Hi, I live near Chicago. I have a Dish 1000 pointing toward the southwest. My signal for all my local channels and pretty much anything else HD hovers around 45. I've had Dish out a couple of times to try and get it adjusted, because any time we get any kind of clouds with height to the SW...

    Special requirements for vip722k OTA

    Hi, I've been running OTA with an indoor antenna on my 1 year old vip722 for about 8 months now with no problems. I decided to set up OTA on my new vip722k this afternoon. When I went to attach the antenna coax to the DVR, there was no connector where there is one on the older vip722. So I...

    Suddenly strange issues on 1 year old vip722

    Hi, Last night while watching TV, I started to get the message that my receiver lost the signal. But it was a perfectly clear night and my upstairs receiver was just fine. Every time I pressed the guide button or menu button, the picture would come back and then go out five or ten seconds...

    Dish 722k - Lots of problems

    Hi, I've had a new Dish 722k for about a week and a half now. It's been nothing but problems. Often it doesn't respond to the remote control. Sometimes it does. It's quite sporadic. Also, there have been a number of times where I haven't been able to rewind past a certain point in a show...

    vip722k remote issues

    Hi, I've only had this DVR for about a week. The remote was working fine for it. Now all of a sudden, once I turn off the DVR with the remote, I cannot turn it back on. I have to go to the DVR and press either the power button or the select button. Sometimes when I press the select button on...

    NFL Network Issues?

    Hi, I'm in the Chicago area. Last night, we were watching the game on NFL Network. At various times, the picture got a bit weird. It was like it was dropping frames. Sometimes it almost appeared like it was going in slow motion. It didn't happen through the entire game, it only happened...

    Two dishes?

    This seems to be my night for questions. I have one more. I have a Dish 1000, with HD. The problem is that I don't get a very good signal on 129, which is where most of my HD channels are. The highest I get is 50 on transponder 12. But on other transponders, I get 20 - 30. 20 - 30 is fine...

    vip722 didn't record as planned

    Hi, I have a vip722 that is set up in single mode. This means it should be able to record two shows at once. I've done this many many times, without any problems. Tonight, I had it set up to record Fringe on Fox, and Big Brother on CBS, both at 8:00. My wife and I were watching Family Guy...

    Could the vip722 really be this bad??

    Ok, this thing is either defective, or it's a steaming pile of crap. I've had a Dish vip722 for about a week and a half now. At first I really liked it, but that didn't last very long. When I'm fast forwarding or rewinding through shows I've recorded, it's not smooth. It FF or RW in...

    New HD install, signal strength

    Hi, I've been with Dish since September. Last weekend we bought a new HD tv and this weekend, Dish came out and installed a new vip722. In the process, they replaced the Dish 500 we got back in September with a Dish 1000. When they installed the 500, they connected some sort of signal meter...

    New account and upgrades?

    Hey all, I've only been with Dish for about two months now. I have standard def receivers right now, but I'm thinking of going out and buying a high def tv. High def was in our future once I got my basement finished, but that's two years out, and I don't want to wait. So I'm going to get a...

    Dish 322 receiver issues

    Hi, First post here. How you all doing? :) I have two Dish 322 dual tuner receivers, one upstairs and one downstairs. When a bird flies by, the dish goes out. I see the searching for satellites message and then five seconds later, I get an Error 002. The message says something to the effect...
