    VIP722 - if TV1 is turned on, TV2 controls don't work

    Empiretc - thanks for this tip. I realized I could hide the antenna behind some equipment, so I went down to Wal-Mart and bought two of these at $10/each. They work like a charm. An easy (and cheap) solution - thanks again. No remote problems on either TV2 anymore.

    VIP722 - if TV1 is turned on, TV2 controls don't work

    Like the price, not sure about having another piece of equipment behind all my boxes - it's already such a mess back there, don't really want bunny ears sticking up. If I get desperate I will definitely keep it in mind though. Thanks.

    VIP722 - if TV1 is turned on, TV2 controls don't work

    Not sure where that even is in the menu, but it must be related to TV1 interference as the others eluded too, right? I CAN control TV2 with TV1 being on, but the remote has to be pointed in an exact spot.

    VIP722 - if TV1 is turned on, TV2 controls don't work

    I was going to try that but the antenna is 'male' and my coax is 'male' - so I couldn't easily test that. Plus one of my tv downstairs is in a cut out in the wall, so I can't really stretch the coax outside of that cut out. Might work on tv upstairs, but not downstairs in the cut out:(

    VIP722 - if TV1 is turned on, TV2 controls don't work

    Thanks for all the tips, I've done some additional testing. This is definitely a problem in our house, just can't believe it's really never come up until recently. Both tv's/boxes are doing it. TV1 on, can't control TV2. TV1 off, no control problems. I have discovered if I point the TV2...

    VIP722 - if TV1 is turned on, TV2 controls don't work

    Didn't work, will try splitters as pictured next. Any splitters/attenuators you can recommend that I can pick up at Radio Shack down the street?

    VIP722 - if TV1 is turned on, TV2 controls don't work

    Thanks for the pic, no, my set-up does not look like that. The antenna is connected directly to the 722. Tips?

    VIP722 - if TV1 is turned on, TV2 controls don't work

    Both of our TV2s are back-fed with coax cable directly from wall to tv. I'm assuming the in-laws is the same. If you think I need an attenuator, any tips on a cheap one to test out? See that fixes the problem.

    VIP722 - if TV1 is turned on, TV2 controls don't work

    Not sure if this is a known problem, but I couldn't find anything on it. I have two VIP722s (4 tvs), have had them for about 4 years now. No problems. While visiting my in-laws, who also have one 722, when someone was watching tv in the living room (TV1), you weren't able to control TV2 in...

    Pac-12 Network

    Anyone with 200 (or higher) package without a multi-sport package getting all the pac-12 channels or just 413?

    Pac-12 Network

    Had DISH America and only got 413, then jumped to 455 - upgraded to 120 PLUS and the multi-sport package, now get them all. Can't wait for HD!

    if I buy 3 joey's

    That sucks, thanks guys. I've been a DISH customer for a long time now, but might consider switching to Directv for a good new customer deal - maybe come back to dish in two years? Looking into their whole home dvr service, trying to figure out if it's worth switching.

    if I buy 3 joey's

    Currently have 2 722 HD DVR receivers - 4 tvs, 2 hd, 2 sd. I don't mind this set up. What I do mind is I have leased those for 4 years now, the first is free, but I have paid $17/mo for the 2nd for 4 years - that's over $800! My question is, if I buy 3 Joey's do I still have to pay that...

    SatelliteGuys FIRST LOOK - DISH's Hopper and Joey

    Thanks Dustoman, that stinks, but it's good to know. Maybe not worth upgrading quite yet for me?

    SatelliteGuys FIRST LOOK - DISH's Hopper and Joey

    Can anyone confirm if the new Blockbuster at Home app has access to everything that dishonline on a pc has access to? Right now, there is more available on a pc than through my 722 box.

    SatelliteGuys FIRST LOOK - DISH's Hopper and Joey

    Great write up Scott - have had two 722s for over 3 years now - certainly considering upgrading. It would be nice to record something and be able to watch it on any of the 4 connected tvs in the house. I don't need more than 3 tuners at a time. My biggest question is the Blockbuster at Home...

    DISH ONLINE

    It's listed as 'yes' in the spec sheet, which is what I referenced in my original post. But does that mean I will be able to watch ALL the stuff that is available online on the tv? Right now, you can't.

    DISH ONLINE

    Any word on the use of Dish Online with the Hopper? Right now, I have Blockbuster at Home and two 722s. The stuff I can watch on Dish Online is limited on the tv - meaning I can see more movies/shows by logging in online, than what I can actually get on my 722. The spec sheet just says 'yes'...
