Sure did! I did this back when HBO cancelled Deadwood. Have NOT missed it at all. First off I rarely use the streaming, I usually get the disks, and so have perfect sound and picture. If we watch a show I mail it on Day1, Day2 they get it, and by day3 I have the next one. EVERYTHING you miss on...

I'm a hockey fan, and really want to see my game, but I'm with Dish on this. What, they have 14 million subscribers, Fox won't keep it off that long. It's like a year or two back when Comedy Central was pulled. They were gone a week or so, then back. These channels can't afford to lose 14...

Thanks everyone for the replies. They didn't ask me anything about the setup, I had just told her that I wanted to put in HD. I've been a customer for a VERY long time, I figured that's why the $15. I did tell her that I wanted to make sure the one I got could work with the external drive, and...

Hi, I think I will be pulling the pin, and moving to an HD TV in early October. I called Dish and they will upgrade my setup for a total of $15. But they would not tell me for sure which HD DVR I would get. Should I be holding out for on model over another? My main concern is recording space...

Thanks for the help. I did have a lot of "No Info" in the guide before this happened (though it seemed only on the 'local' channels. I had the first game of the stanley cup set to record, and it did record. But when I turned on the TV it was 'black'. Then I rebooted, got live programming back...

Hi - Looking to see if anyone has the same problem. The other day the timers did not update and were 'missing' from the list. I put the one I was concerned on then figured I'd do the rest the next day. The ones "missing" showed up overnight and all was back to normal. Tonight ALL of the...

I find this usually happens for me when the guide shows the air date prior to 2000. The Daily Show when in repeats will show an air date of 1997 and it picks it up as new.

I also have been using Netflix and dropped the HBO. For $18 a month you can get 3 movies at a time, plus stream others. Plus the main thing I liked about HBO was a couple of the series they canceled. The one or two I still like, I just wait until they come out on DVD then order them via Netflix...

Hi, Thought I'd look for advice here since everyone knows so much on the subject :) My current setup is dying, so I'm thinking I'd upgrade since I've got to replace things anyway. I've attached a picture of my current setup to hopefully make it clearer. I'd like to go with an HD setup...

Hi, I was saving it, as I was hoping to take advantage of it. The promo code was/is RET370. There were 2 offers, one for HD DVR, 12 monthly credits of $10, free hbo and showtime for 3 months, and Free HD channels for 3 months ($30 value). The other was 12 credits of $10, Free HBO and Showtime...

Hi, Man, I had a hell of a time finding out about getting the NHL Network (NOT Center Ice). Called Dish, and even they had a hard time finding out anything. Finally told me that the only way I can get it is as a part of the $5.99 a month multi-sports package. Really don't want to do...

Hi, Haven't been on here a while to post, but I figured this is the place to come. Currently have a 508 and a 510 PVR. Have been pretty happy with them overall. I'm thinking of getting a HD TV after the holidays and am wondering which HD PVR I should try and get along with it. How much is...

Hi, I have looked to see if I can find a post with how to work the name based recording on a 510. I have issues almost daily, so there could be something I'm missing. I set timers as a one time, and they go away. I cannot record a show in progress, like I used to. Works like it did, but no...

I've had nothing but trouble since they did the name based crap. Newest issue. I had a reboot last night while watching a show. It rebooted 5 or 6 times before it stopped and let me go back. Now all the 'record new' timers seem to be screwed up? I had the Daily Show set to record starting...

Sheesh - I don't like it I don't like the new features for the most part. I have a 510 and they upgraded me to the name based recording. It's a pain in the a**. I've skipped one showing (a repeat) at least 6 times this week, and it still pops up. I like the idea of 'record only new episodes'...

Evidently not long. I agree with an earlier post, get a DVR, then who cares? I haven't watched 'TV that sucked' since I got the first one 9 or so years ago (all of 9 hours record time).

Wow, I gotta say, this impressed me. I sent the email (all the way down, figure you want the answer first). Within 2-3 hours she left a VM on my home phone, I wasn't home yet. Here is the email she sent as a follow up. SatelliteGuy moderator I also posted this in my thread about problems with...

Answer from Dish on PVR 510/501 problems Wow, I gotta say, this impressed me. I sent the email (all the way down, figure you want the answer first). Within 2-3 hours she left a VM on my home phone, I wasn't home yet. Here is the email she sent as a follow up. Jim, Thank you for your...

Killing them and re-do didn't work for me. Once it turned on again all were off 1 hour again. I'd try a couple, but leave the rest until you can see if it worked or not.

Any idea what "very soon" translates to usually? Normally I just kind of brush off these things, but there has been SEVERAL issues over the last couple of months. Each time something new and just as one stops being a problem something new comes up. I'm more upset with them right now than I've...

This is what I can't understand either. If I go into the program guide it now shows the timer symbol in the 8PM show. But the timer menu shows 7 and it won't fire. I never thought of leaving the thing on like you mentioned, might be worth a try. I just got off the phone with a CSR. "This...

Okay, now I really am getting ticked. After seeing this, I went and checked mine, before I left for work. They are all off by 1 hour again. I went through yesterday and deleted all of them, and set them all up again. When I went to bed, the 11 PM timer had fired and recorded. So between midnight...

Hi, Sunday's change seemed to go okay. Everything worked fine yesterday, and up to 1:30 pm today (Last timer that fired normal). Now everything is off 1 hour. I did a couple of manual adjustments for an 8PM show and then did a reset of the box. Everything moved off by another hour. I did...

Thank you all, but particularly RandallA! The monoprice was a GREAT suguestion. I got the one you recommended but also they showed what I thought I wanted which is a converter to make the optical into a RCA type. It was $13 and I ordered Sunday, it came today (Tuesday) and 5 minutes later I was...

I may take another look to make sure, but as I remember I was limited to 'audio modes' when in CD. The other 'video' inputs allow me to customize for that. I spent a LOT on this receiver, and I'm very disappointed in it for a lot of things. I wish I'd returned it when I bought it. Just figured...
