    MLB Extra Innings Coming to DISH!

    I agree it does seem if you really want HD, cable is very competetive, I heard scientific atlantic is realeasing a cable HD DVR. They have more locals the at least Dish, not sure about Directv. If you add in MSGHD, they have an advantage in some aspects. Yikes..

    MLB Extra Innings Coming to DISH!

    Someone mentioned about the mets in HD (msgHD). YES Network wil begin doing Yankee games in June or July in HD and then Nets game in the fall in HD as well. It remains to be seen who will actually carry this HD feed.

    MLB Extra Innings Coming to DISH!

    All the small market fans should also realize that through revenue sharing the Yankees give your teams money. Some may not use that money for the team but rather put it in their pocket. George cares about one thing, winning. The fans see this and come out in what could be record numbers this...

    MLB Extra Innings Coming to DISH!

    So 2 years no YES on Dish, the MLB package is almost there but sounds as if a NY/NJ resident won't get those games anyway. This is ridiculous, even if they could get it, kind of a steep price $150 if you are only interested in one game. I would have paid up to maybe $5 a month for YES. Either...

    Dish net ever getting YES??

Just want to be sure before I switch everything over. I...

    721 can't edit HBO timer??

    Thanks, glad I am not out of my mind. Others should try these as well. Not being able to extend a timer usually isn't a big deal on HBo, most shows end early, but Sunday nights Sex shows was an example of needing the extension..

    721 can't edit HBO timer??

    Actually I could be watching for like 5 minutes and hit skip back once and it just sits and waits. Other times it works fine. I just kicked and rebooted the thing last week because it was acting sluggish. I think I am going to directivo so that I can get YES network soon anyway.. Bill

    721 can't edit HBO timer??

    So last night I was trying to setup timers to cover all the Sex and the City shows and Curb your enthusiasm. I setup the first sex show and extended the timer 90 minutes, this should have bought me till 10pm, instead it got me only the first show. So I noticed that and went to HBO W, set it up...

    JVC 721? Does it matter?

    I do believe D0tivos are dual tuner, just like the 721. Is this what you were referring to, or a Stand alone Tivo I have a 721 and am very happy with it

    DVR Wish List

    I have been asking for folders on the 721 since it first came out. I would like to name my own folders and when I set up a timer tell it which folder to go into. Also would like to be able to lock folders, rather then lock ratings and have to enter a code everytime I try to tune to HBO. Also...

    Scott G.: 721 and Dish Home ???

    I really could care less about Dish Home, I wish they would tackle some other features, like maybe a folder system. Maybe we can get another poll and vote on upcoming features like we did a while back..

    721 slow response on on DD channels ?

    I have noticed of late, as well as a friend of mine that the 721 is slow to respond to pause, skip back, etc to a pvr'd show from HBO. Recent example curb your enthusiasm. There is like a 5 sec delay from when you hit skip back till it goes. He was thinking maybe the dolby digital is doing...

    EXCLUSIVE - DishPlayer DVR 522 Review!

    Whats wrong with reality TV :P When I first heard about the 522, I was jealous since it sounded like a less expensive 721 (which I have had since day one) Seems like Dish doesn't really have an interest in anything but getting products out there and work out the features later if ever. I...

    Rent a 921 or other Dish HD receiver

    I already checked I do qualify for the cbs hd feed I'm in the nY area. I noticed sears had the 811, was wondering when they would get the 921. The 921 is cool for the simple reason that I can pause the game if I want. Again just wondering about ideas and option. I also have a 61.5 dish...

    Rent a 921 or other Dish HD receiver

    Bichon, sears is hardly going to throw the receiver out. They will just repack it and sell it again. It's not like I would break it and return it.. My 721 is the 2nd one I had, the other was RA'd from Dish. So I kind of do have a 721 that was already used and broken. Would it be different...

    Rent a 921 or other Dish HD receiver

    I was just on sears.com, noticed that they sell dish 811. They also have a money back return policy. Maybe that is the way to go, when is sears getting the 921. Or atleast whatever JVC's equivalent is. thanks

    Rent a 921 or other Dish HD receiver

    Thanks for the CBS info, not sure if an off air antenna would work I'm about 50 miles from NYC. In either case is there anyway to rent a receiver or buy and return

    A note from Echostar on some of the 721 reported bugs.

    They can't even fix the bugs that don't have a workaround, imagine how long it would take to get to one that does. I agree, unless they are posting something on their website or in a message on the 721 to users, then unless you visit this site how would you know.. I have always hit play to...

    721 Timers after setting the clock back one hour

    I set the Giants timer Saturday afternoon, it came up in the guide as 2pm est, really a 1pm est game. Next day I went to see if if it kicked it back to 1pm, and of course not, so I deleted the first timer and created anither from the now correct guide..

    721 L1.15 Bug Reports

    Well the triple conflict screen and weather are pretty cool. The new recording option seems useless unless you watch the show from the very beginning of an event
