Just bought a Vizio P55. So far, it's great. Need to get it calibrated, etc., but the hardware is just spectacular. 126 zones of local dimming and HDR (Dolby vision, with HDR10 coming), so it's very versatile. The tablet remote is pretty cool. Being able to mess with picture settings...

Sign me up for an upgrade, please!

Try this... Works for me almost every time. For some reason LP will default to an SD feed if you get there via channel up/down. Once you find the game, try keying in the channel number with the remote. For me that almost always makes the switch to the HD version of the game. Weird, but it...

CubsWin - check the coax line between the node and the Joey. Make sure there are no splitters, diplexers or other such devices between the two. I had the same problem and discovered that the installer had left diplexers from the previous install in the lines. When those came out, it worked...

A built in Joey maybe? D* is doing that with their Genie system.

Thought it would only be fair to let everyone know that the DIRT team came through for me. I am a satisfied customer again. That's the way customer service should be. Thanks, Jason!

So I posted about this in the Hopper forum, but I am increasingly frustrated and would like the opportunity to discuss this with someone on the DIRT team. It doesn't appear any of them are online right now or I would PM. Anyway, my Hopper install was about 30 days ago. The technician did...

Try EchoStar - Grantee code DKN

I had similar behavior and discovered that the installer had left a diplexer in the line. Bad signal=weird results.

So with storm season over, I went ahead and took the plunge for a 2H/2J system knowing the OTA tuner would be out at least by next spring (it will, won't it Scott?). So, of course today, trying to watch the OU/Texas game, a line of freak fall thunderstorms came through and here I was with no...

Yeah this guy told me that there would never be an OTA tuner for the Hopper because there was no slot for it. I educated him about the USB part coming.

So, I had my 2H2J setup installed day before yesterday. i had to leave, so I didn't fully test everything before the installer left. he said it was all working. Trouble is, I wasn't able to get one Joey to talk to the Hopper I wanted to link it to and its MOCA connection was intermittant at...

I understand all the ways I can get OTA to the TV tuner, but I'm not always home. While my Harmony is great, it still bumfuzzles my wife on occasion and I can't and won't rely on her (or my kids) ability (or willingness) to manually change to the correct input in a storm. I use the internet as...

I can't move to Hopper/Joey until the OTA unit is ready and it has nothing to do with sub-channels or sports. Living in Oklahoma, having access to TV in bad weather can literally be the difference between life and death. When the storms come rolling in and the satellite goes dead because of...

So last night me and the family are watching a program on the 922 that we recorded several nights ago. A thunderstorm came through and up pops the "Acquiring Satellite Signal" box. OK, I thought, it's nice to be notified of the loss of signal even though I am watching a recorded show, so I...

Anyone else think this is Dish bowing to Big Content (tm)? By forcing us to login through the website, it prevents us from letting relatives, friends, etc. use our sling to place shift - inconvenience=copyright protection. Larry

The 922 is working very well, but I'm losing caller ID for no apparent reason. It worked for a while then just quit. All the phones in the house get caller ID, but the 922 isn't seeing the calls. Anyone else with this problem? Larry

What does this mean? Does this mean we will (finally) have the promised EHD capability on our 211s? I hope so. Larry

I have an 880 I use with a 622, another 880 I use with my 612 and a 360 I use with a 211. Love em all and the WAF is very high. Larry

Back on topic. Isn't it true that if you have a Dish Pro switch, you can get 2 sat and one OTA down one coax? The Dish pro switch sends the two sats down one line with a dish pro splitter at the receiver and then you can diplex the OTA on that?

My 612 is being installed Saturday. DIU cost me $75 and a 24 month commitment. Early term fee is $240, prorated monthly, so even if I leave early, that's not bad. LGB

I was told by a Dish installer that he was told the 612 would only count as one tuner against the 4 tuner leased limit. If you can talk Dish into it, you could technically replace a 211 with a 612 without going over the limit. We'll have to wait and see if this is really the case. I think...

Not to mention the poorly designed HDMI connector. HDMI requires an absolutely solid, constant stable connection and the connector is so flakey that merely pushing your DVR back into a cabinet can push the cable askew and mess up the connection. Also, the connector is so long that it makes...

Lost audio on OTA channels as well. Had to watch the baseball game on Sat Local HD (Picture sucks). LGBall

Video Stutter Significant video stutter on both HD and SD channels. Does not happen on OTA channels. Seems to be most prevalent when there is a lot of motion on the screen, as if the CPU can't keep up with the action. Pause and restart does not seem to fix the problem.
