    L6.14 reboots 722

    Ever since my 722 downloaded the new firmware, my DVR reboots when I try to manipulate any recording. I select skip/restore for example, it appears to hang for a couple minutes then reboots. What's the deal? It was fine before 6.14

    No 1080P Movie!

    OK, I have an odd problem. Dish lets me order the 1080p movie but then I get a flashing screen like a DVD "skipping". It downloads and thinks it's playing, it's just unwatchable with the screen flashing. You see 3-4 seconds, then a 4-5 second delay, then 3-4 more seconds, then 45- second delay...

    How Dish's 1080p is going to work...

    Curious, I see channels 501, there are about 8 of them but none of them lists "I am Legend" as a selection. My TV is 1080p and when I select another movie, I don't get the 1080p option, just the standard "Do you want to rent this movie?" kind of message.

    How would I turn that on? I've been on every menu I think.

    Local HD channels no show on VIP722

    Tried the soft reboot, compared settings against the working 211 and found a couple things. It all looks the same now and no local HD on the 722.

    Local HD channels no show on VIP722

    Standard Def. channels show up on the guide fine, OTA channels show up on the guide fine, the Dish HD locals don't show up on the guide. My VIP 211 shows the local HD channels along with the others and they work fine. Strange huh?

    Local HD channels no show on VIP722

    I just had a new VIP 722 installed last week. My local HD channels don't show up on the guide. My VIP 211 shows local HD channels just fine. I've done a check switch a couple times, downloaded the guide, etc. Any ideas, the phone rep. didn't have any ideas and they want to send a tech. to...

    211 Running Bug Thread

    I see something similar to this only on OTA channels. The sound is ok but the video will be very choppy, like 1 frame ever 2 seconds. I re-boot the receiver and it's fine. This has happened 3 times so far with no apparent pattern. First time I saw it I thought the Olympics feed was screwed up...

    Are 61.5 and 148 mirrors of each other?

    Thanks for the reply

    Are 61.5 and 148 mirrors of each other?

    I just got off the phone and signed up for the 811 to 211 upgrade. The CSR claimed I needed to re-adjust my 61.5 dish to the 129 position. From what I've read on here that isn't true. I don't care about local HD over sat since my OTA HD works great in this area. All the other HD channels, new...

    Quick Facts for 622 and 222

    am I missing something or is the Vip222 missing a HDMI/DVI connection?

    Poll for those that have 811 upgrade to 289

    I voted as better with 289 vs 284 (the last upgrade my receiver took). No noted problems and the guide seems to load licky split, WAY faster than before and I don't seem to get as many "downloading Guide" boxes.

    RUMOR - FOX HD on Dish for SuperBowl? No Way.

    Not true, the Austin Fox O&O station doesn't broadcast in HD yet. I talked to them this week and they're scheduled to go HD in late July 2005. Unless Dish ponies up on a sat. feed HD broadcast, no HD SuperBowl for us.

    Adding 3rd receiver

    I'm trying to add a 3rd 500 receiver to my house where I currently have a 500 & a 811. Any idea how this can be done without buying a ton of new stuff. The Dish rep. said no problem but I get all kinds of sat. errors when I hook them up. TIA.

    EchoStar's Spending Not Rubbing Off on Subscribers

    At least DishNetwork hasn't decided to start sueing 25,000 of it's subscriber's in an extortion scheme to generate revenue. No, everyone involved aren't satellite pirates or thieves. http://www.directvdefense.org/
