Sadly, on my second hopper 3 within a year or so. Kind of seems like dish is using cheap hard drives or something, since second one has hard drive failure just like the first one.

Well, the 3 year thing is what mainly caught my attention, but I really like Directv's on demand, which is one big reason for the time being I'll stick with them. I was with Dish for like almost 12 years before and liked them, but just remember that their on demand wasn't really that great. So...

Was just wondering since I am a Directv customer and have been for a few years now, if Dish has improved their on demand? I know that since I've been with Directv their on demand seems to be really good. Now when I say on demand, I don't just mean the pay stuff, but the the stuff you would get...

I sent him a brief message as to what is going on. So, i'll see what happens.

So here is the deal, I left Dish a week ago and the rep I talked to said about me returning 3 leased receivers and I said no I have only 2 receivers a VIP722 and a VIP 211. I then explained to him that the VIP 622 that they are showing that I still have was replaced by the VIP 722 because the...

Just a quick question, when you have a external hard drive will it work on a friends or relatives Dish DVR receiver? Also, what happens if you would need to replace your current DVR with another one, can you still use the external hard drive on the new DVR receiver? Or does the external hard...

When you say making stuff up, if you are referring to whether or not I paid shipping for the receiver I purchased, that I do not know because of the time frame, all I know is that it was a good deal. Also, I did not start this thread to complain about whether there is a cost to ship your...

Dude, I did not pay for no install. I moved over 2 years ago to my current location in which dishmover paid for that. Secondly, I have been with dish for 13 or more years now, and when I first got them I don't know if they had lease back then because I owned my receiver(s) and installed the...

Very true! That is exactly what I thought when I saw the response from MattG. It is their property not mine, and I did not have to pay to receive it. So, why should I have to pay to give it back?

So, if you need to send a receiver back or you are leaving Dishnetwork, I take it you the subscriber are responsible for paying to ship the receiver(s) back. Am I right or am I wrong?

I have a Panasonic dvd recorder which would be my only option to get the shows that I have recorded in HD as close to HD picture quality. I'm probably not going to make the switch Comcast though, for 1 seems like too much of a hassle trying to record all my stuff. Secondly Comcast in my area...

Well that is not too bad.

I thought of that, but isn't their basic package like close to $30?

Yeah that is what i kinda figured, but I thought i would ask. Comcast sent me a really good offer for TV, phone, and internet service that would save me a decent amount of money a month, but I do not want to lose all of my recordings.

So, if you ever leave Dishnetwork, is there any way to save all your dvr recordings including external hard drive recordings also?

Platinum joke. Oh, okay i found it.

Ok so whats up with hd platinum showing Encore mystery and Starz cinema as part of the platinum package and in hd?Or are they being added to the hd lineup?

Ok thanks,i wasn't sure never ordered it before.

Was just wondering when you order Dish VOD does the movie start from the beginning,or is it already playing and you just have to wait for it to end and start over?

I've been having rain fade issue's with the 129 satellite,last time i checked i had a signal in the upper 50's to low to mid 60's.This is a 1000.2 dish i believe,i get 129,110 and 119 and used to get 118.7 orbital slot.

Got the problem fixed,it was a simple fix by resetting the receiver.

I have a VIP 211 and the remote suddenly stopped working the receiver,now of course the first thing i checked were the batteries which i have put new one's in it,but remote still fails to operate the receiver ,however it will operate the tv because when i push the tv button function or push...

External hard drive. So i take it i can watch recorded shows from the external on the 211 which is all i want to do,pretty much put shows on the external from the 722 and watch it in another room on the 211 or am i taking it the wrong way?

I was wondering if you can use a external hard drive on a Vip 211,now i use this external for my Vip 722 but was wondering if i can watch recorded shows from the external on the 211?

Premiums. Very true,i used to think having a huge variety of premiums would be great,but they all show the same old sh@t.:eek:
