    Increase recording capasity?

    Only problem I had was the 722k would not recognize the drive after it had been connected to the 622. When speaking with E* tech they realized that the 722k was new to my account and sent it a "hit" which resolved the issue. I have had no further problems with the drive which is a Cavalry CAUM...

    External Hard Drive Archive Bug Thread

    Activated EHD today and had no problems moving videos from 622 to the drive or playing them back, but when I connected the HD to the 722k and attempt to access it tells that the HD is formatted for another dish dvr and must be formatted for this device losing all media stored on device. Any tips.

    722K Screen Shots and Initial Setup Thoughts

    Scott, I'm scheduled for a 722k install on Monday. Would it be smart to wait or just go for it. I am going to move my current 622 to the bedroom and send back my 522.

    Compatible Remote?

    I use the Harmony One and love it. It controls my 622, Samsung Plasma, Onkyo 606, Samsung BD 5000 and a Toshiba HD-A3. The wife loves it also as one tap on the screen and everything to watch tv, blu-ray, etc is turned on and ready to go. It does have a small learning curve (plan on a hour to...

    Tnt HD Error??

    This spring after a nasty storm that destroyed my old dishes, Dish installed a new Dish 1000 and took out the 44 switch saying it was not longer necessary. Can you still run a check switch without a switch?

    Official 622 L4.01 Discussion Thread

    L4.01 Broke It Since receiving 4.01 on Friday the 622 loses audio (sounds like nails down a chalk board) fan sounds like a turbo charger and unit reboots. This is happening every couple of hours non stop. Spent most of the afternoon with Tech Support and they couldn't figure it out. So there...

    How has your 622 performed for you?

    Installed 4/10/06 so far so good. No problems to note. I never realized the difference between sd and hd until now. Now if dish puts the resolution back to 1080 it will be great.:)
