I use Svideo by default because it provides my set with the best picture, DVI picture (sd picture) gets much worse. Set is a Mitsubishi 65" projection, less than a year old. Picture was crisp and clear and now looks so fuzzy you can't even make out small forms. (ie soccer player running with...

My picture quality has become much more compressed looking. Watching soccer in SD is very fuzzy, compaired to 2.69 which had a pretty crisp picture. Sure hope its something they correct. Steve

The 811 is a terrible piece of equipment. I have my 510 connected where I can switch back and forth between the 811 and the 510. The picture quality on the 811 blows.. sorry best work I can find to describe it. I will be sending it back for another 510, (one I'm using now is from the bedroom)...

Just about to send it back and settle on a 510 and heck with the hd package. The picture quality on sd is so bad I cant stand it anymore. There is no grey scale, its either black or white. Watching movies, and just regular TV shows is frustrating. Spent top dollar on a nice big screen only to...

I agree that DVI is the best connection for receiving the 811 signal. But in DVI mode, (1080i), most tv's do not have any format or "stretch" capabilities. Which leaves you at the mercy of the 811, so unless you enjoy watching short fat people on your set DVI blows. So to get the best quality...

Brightness and picture quality in general improved greatly, all inputs. Nicely done Dish, now about that DVI sd stretch patch... :D

Keith, When they deliver your unit they will supply you with a cable to connect to the new tv. More than likely they will use a Component connection, which is a good connection. Once the bugs are worked out of the 811 it might be worth the effort to try a DVI connection, but by no means would...

Taken from "Technical Chat Summary 5-10-04" E-mail question from Bob: 811 has dark output in 480i. Answer: Software fix coming next week. E-mail question from Raymond: On the 811, what happened with the software fix that was supposed to fix the aspect ratio on wide-screen. Answer...

It’s hard to vote positively for a piece of equipment that fails to perform so many of the tasks that it is designed for. The picture quality on the 811 sucks, hands down all connections. My 510 side by side is better picture quality. My cable Motorola 5100 has a better picture and my cable...

I heard Charlie is going to announce " I just saved a ton on my auto insurance"..

In using the DVI for sd picture are you not having to use the 811's stretch? I find my Mitsubishi stretch provides a better image,(ie. not frumpy), and keep going back to (ack!) svideo.

Dish has some nice packages for "returning" customers. I left when an hd upgrade was going to cost me out of pocket after being a loyal customer for 2 years. Now that I have been gone for 4 months, the upgrade is free and there is no commitment required to re-connect. Would have been easier...

My dish will be reconnected Sunday after 4 months away with Comcast Cable. There price was too cheap to ignore, and the package was real nice with HBO/Showtime both with 1 HD, and all my locals in HD. After 4 months I cannot watch it anymore, the quality compared to dish is pathetic. I have...
