    Does the Dish Anywhere app work over Lightning to HDMI adapter?

    I have an iPad Air 2 and an iPhone XR and would like to connect to a TV using the lightning HDMI adapter to stream the Polish channels I have. However I read that some apps like Netflix or Hulu won't work. Before I buy the adapter is this also the case with the Anywhere app? I came across a...

    Getting commercials at the worst possible time

    Recording the MLB playoffs and haven't had any real issues (though 1 game was cut short at the start of the 9nth inning even though I set the timer to use the 90 minute extension). However the last 2 games I recorded between Astros/Yankees has been a disaster. Im getting commercial breaks at...

    Netflix constant logouts on wired Joey

    Hopper 3+wired joey and wireless joey. Netflix works flawlessly on the Hopper 3. However it is constantly logging out on the wired joey for some reason. I've reset the app but it doesn't help at all. I've had to move a Roku 3 to the room so that family members wouldn't be asking me to login all...

    Squished picture on my 722k. Why?

    For some reason my picture is narrow on my 722k. I am in single user mode, no settings were changed. As you can see in pip mode one is normal, and the tether is not. The picture remains in hd, but squished. If I press swap then it's all normal. Pressing the format button does nothing at all. If...

    Lost all recordings on my DVR

    I had only a few movies and TV shows on my 722k DVR, barely used any space. Anyway I noticed that all my recordings were gone. When I went to history I saw that "TV1 User deleted at 9:07pm). All items were deleted at 9:07pm. Is this symptomatic of an HD failure, and if so would it actually log...

    722k Complete signal loss, requires factory reset every day.

    I have a Vip 722k and 2 211ks. The whole system has been pretty much running without fault since we got it back in September 2011. However yesterday morning I came to find that when I turned on my 722k, it had the Acquiring Signal screen. After what seemed to take forever I got the dreaded...

    I have Anthony Bourdain: parts Unknown set to record, have since its premier. No problems until a few days ago when I noticed the timer had 25 friggin entries, given there havent been nearly as many episodes, and I always set timers for "new episodes" only. The generic show description doesnt...

    crazy glitching on 722k lately

    I'm watching Real Time with Bill Maher on HBO and there is this constant glitching as if there was a heavy thunderstorm going on, but all is clear here. I recorded some episodes of Workaholics this week and some suffered with terror glitching in the beginning then went away. But I can't watch...

    VH1 Classic needs to be in HD.

    I just wanna vent a little. I know Dish cant do much about it. Just wish Viacom or whoever runs VH1 Classic would get off their butts and do HD already. Ever since upgrading to HD, Im really like Palladia. The concerts are great when its something I wanna watch (Rush R30, Rush: Time, Iron Maiden...

    Turn 211 to DVR with EHD

    Just a quick question. I wanna turn the living room 211 into a DVR using an EHD. I got a spare EHD I dont use anymore (powered). I understand there is a one time $40 charge to activate it. Do I have to contact CSR and use a credit card, or is it charged on the bill?

    722k record dvr to TV2?

    We got 1 722k for our HDTV downstairs, set to single mode. Im confused about DVR recording on TV1/TV2. I want to record shows only on TV2, so I can continue to watch channels on TV1 uninterrupted. However whenever I create a timer it defaults to TV1. It only uses TV2 when it records 2 shows...

    Corrupted audio on recorded program?

    I recorded a show (Worlds most expensive Cars) on HD Theater today at 2pm CT on my 722k. Came back a few hours later to watch it and it was totally ruined. Video was fine, but the audio dropped out a few minutes in. I could see on my AVR that it kept switching from Dolby D to PLII Music mode...

    Caller ID issues.

    CID on our old DP311 receivers worked great. Nice big display and no problems. We upgrading to a 722k and 2x211s and I gotta say I dont like the way CID looks. Its too small for one thing imo, as the DP311 had a nice big display on the bottom of the screen instead of being on top. Also for...

    Can the 4 colored buttons in the middle be programmed for anything? The manual says they're reserved for future use, but afaik the 722k isnt exactly new, so when will these buttons be utilized? I noticed that yellow and blue buttons allow me to change ratios for SD and HD. Red and Green do...

    Alright so we finally got our Dish upgraded today to HD. 1 722k receiver, and 2 211's. First question is does the 722k support 1080p? My TV says its 1080i when the 722k is connected, and I notice some banding/interlace lines on some channels. This is over HDMI. When I go into the HDTV setup...
