Yes, I'm sure that wasn't it, as this lasted at least five minutes into the new episode. I've never experienced this before, normally the sound is 5.1 once into the new episode. Sounds like it was just me though. I have the recording from Sunday, so I'll investigate further.

Did anyone have problems with the audio this past Sunday ("Battle of the Bastards")? For about the first five or ten minutes, I only had two channel audio, then it switched to 5.1 surround about five or ten minutes in. This was on HBO-E. Then again yesterday, we watched the replay on HBO-E...

Try switching the modulation to a lower channel number. For years I had an SDTV connected to the TV2 output on my 622 and the picture was grainy. I just figured the signal from the modulator was a little weak. Then one day I changed the modulator to a lower channel number (something in the...

Western arc 1000.2 has a triple Dish Pro Plus LNB. I've tried three different separators, with no luck.

I've had a 622 receiver for years and it has never worked with a single cable fed into the DPP separator from my 1000.2. I've always had to run two separate cables from the 1000.2 to the 622's inputs, and not used the separator. It acts as though the band stacking/unstacking doesn't work...

12+ year customer with one 622 and three 211 receivers. Interested in one hopper and one Joey to replace the 622 and one of the 211s. Have subscribed to minimum of AEP for entire time I have been a customer (currently AEP + sports). Please contact me regarding an upgrade. Not under contract...

This document says the 722 does support working in a QAM system (in conjunction with a Q-box to remodulate QAM to QPSK). https://rweb.dishnetwork.com/departmental_content/TechPortal/content/tech/equipment/qbox.shtml

Which of you posting in this thread have a degree in Electrical Engineering, and have some experience in designing high frequency circuits and transmission line analysis? I do. Some of you obviously don't, based on the idiotic statements being posted.

WRONG.

I think you will be fine. I've got a 200 foot run with 75 feet of 20 year old RG-59 in the walls of my house, and my 211 runs fine on it. A two-tuner receiver would be questionable with the stacked frequencies (DPP), but for a single tuner receiver I think you'll be fine.

I was losing just one tuner on my 622 and found this thread. I ran two cables to my 622 and all was fine (can't find a separator locally). I tried to get one from Dish Network (I pay for the service plan) and this is what happened: (04-21rf#) Danielle A.5HL: are you losing signal...

MPEG-2 most definitely has interframe compression, otherwise it would just be like motion JPEG. MPEG-4 adds things like being able to pick from multiple frames for interframe compression, rather than just the previous one, and more flexible and powerful motion prediction options. I'm not...

The number displayed by the receiver is a worst case estimate. I've seen an hour of HD range from 8GB (full bit-rate OTA) to as little as 2GB (SyFy HD). Even when you restrict the comparison to one codec there is still a wide range - 5GB for the local ABC affiliate via Dish locals and 2GB for...

You're not wrong. The correct term is decode, not decrypt. OTA is not encrypted. Also, most midrange and higher TVs now have Internet connectivity and USB connections for media storage, so they are capable of decoding MPEG-4.2 (DivX/Xvid) and MPEG-4.10 (H.264/AVC) and maybe even VC-1, but...

Nice butchering of the English language. The word you're looking for is "algorithm".

Is this only an issue when pulling pieces together from separate recordings? I wonder if the problem is due to confusion over time stamps. Have you tried taking your bad recording and generating all new PTS in TSPE (not sure VRD has this feature), or remuxing into an mkv?

The pre-release version is working great for me with files captured by my R5000. I used to use TSPE for H.264-encoded content, but can edit far more quickly with VRD TV Suite. If you have an mkv you need to remux your streams into an MPEG-2 TS in order to edit it with VRD TV Suite 4. It...

What about "Hustler" and "Hustler HD"? 497 is showing "More MILF Please" and 496 is showing "Mandingo Teen Domination". :D

I've seen it on a couple of my 211s. The frame rate goes to about 0.25 frames per second, but if you bring up the guide (and you have it set to show you small video), the small video is running at the normal speed. Go back to normal viewing and you're back to 0.25 fps.

You've completely overlooked (or more likely just didn't know) about the DCT-based compression that occurs within a frame, just like in JPEG still-picture compression.

If that happened to me, I'd unplug the drive from the receiver, let it cool down if needed, and then connect it to a Linux VM running on my Windows 7 box and fsck the two file systems there. The reformat is probably unnecessary, and fsck'ing the file systems yourself is safer than letting the...

You have to turn OFF all of the picture interpolation features (Auto-Motion Plus, MotionFlow, whatever the maker calls it) to experience film the "proper way". That is, you should not be seeing smooth motion, but the stutter of a 24fps source, like in a movie theater. I hate that. I don't...

If the "monitor" had a TV tuner it would be a TV, not a monitor.

I could not get free Platinum HD via chat. Here is a transcript of my chat with the CSR, from an older post: (23-12-3) Lori N.: I will be happy to remove the Platinum package from your account. You will lose Crime & Investigation, HDNet Movies, MGM, NBA TV, NHL Network, Universal, world...

I'm annoyed. A few weeks ago I removed Platinum HD and added Gold HD + free Platinum from my account. Now I want to make another change, and I get this: Why is that, does some CSR want to get on the line and talk me out of removing programming?
