I happened to notice yesterday that the guide description for channel 102 (the former preview channel) changes at 8AM Pacific on March 14. At that point it says "Migration Channel." Any idea what that might mean? Probably not video of migrating birds... Given the date, could it have something to...

Just another data point. I have an ancient (2001) Sony KV-XBR800 connected to my 722 with an HDMI to DVI adapter. The set supports HDCP. I do have HBO and I haven't seen any problems.

In the last few weeks, I've started seeing what sounds like the same problem on my 722 (not k). I really noticed it when I was watching a recording of an NBA game (Thunder@Blazers). Several times I got a few seconds of loud buzzing and a glitch in the video. Pretty annoying when it happens in...

Dish and their "virtual cable" idea is mentioned. http://www.nytimes.com/2011/12/16/business/media/for-pay-tv-clients-a-steady-diet-of-sports.htm The link may require free registration.

I'm surprised no one's mentioned this. I just got the update on my 722 and it's now possible to limit search lists in On Demand to show only free items. The UI's a bit weird (you toggle it with the "*" key that normally changes the zoom state.) Glad to see that useful feature restored though.

Nope, nothing except the 722. I checked the full headers on the email. It's Comcast all the way down. The Comcast site say I've used 14GB so far in September. Not unreasonable. The consensus seems to be that Comcast doesn't know what they're talking about. Why am I not surprised? OP

Thanks for the suggestions. I hadn't thought about the possibility that someone could be freeloading on the connection. I'll have to check that. However the monthly traffic shown on the Comcast site doesn't look out of line. I haven't had a computer on my home internet connection for over a...

I just got an email from Comcast warning me that my computer "may be infected by a bot". Since the only devices currently on my network connection are a 722 and a LinkSys router, it's hard to see how that could be true. Is it actually conceivable that a Dish DVR could be infected like that? I...

The techs at Dish and SES deserve the adult beverage of their choice(*) for the extra hours they must have put in fixing this. Also kudos to the programmers who seem to have foreseen something like this happening. I'm amazed that the receivers came back without any user intervention. * Why are...

MattG was successful in getting me moved back from North Dakota to Oregon (at dishonline.com). Thanks!

Apparently so! I have nothing against North Dakota, but it is quite a long way away.

Yes, interesting! Remote access works correctly. That may be why I thought the problem was erratic. I've sent you a PM.

I have a very strange problem with the guide at dishonline.com. My local HD channels are all replaced by channels in North Dakota. I'm actually in the Eugene, Oregon DMA. The SD versions of the channels do show up. This problem has occurred off and on for months Here's a screenshot for those...

I tried the new version and it doesn't work for me. Both Firefox 4.0.1 and Safari 5.0.5 fail. I sent feedback about the issue but that was before the new version. I suspect I won't get an answer now. I tried telling Safari to tell the web site it was IE8 and various other browsers. Nothing...

Another argument for it not being the TV is that it only started with the latest update. Glad that others are seeing the same thing. Since some people see it and some don't, my guess is that it's an interaction between something in the update and certain TVs. Mine is 1080i (won't do 1080p). Is...

After the update to my 722, I've seen some strange behavior with the new guide that I haven't seen mentioned. With the 6 (really 7) line setting, I only see a portion of the last line. When I page forward, the guide advances by 7, so I have to step back one if I want to see that last line. (Hope...

For some time the dish remote access site has had a problem editing the name of existing timers. If you try, you get an "Unknown error" message. I recently discovered how to get it to work. You just need to change something else at the same time. I changed the number of saved recordings, but I...

Is the version number for the ViP722 a misprint? I thought the 622 and 722 ran the same software.

According to a NASA press release, NASA HD goes live on Monday, July 19th. Of course this says nothing about when Dish might pick it up. NASA - NASA Television Debuts Full-Time High Definition Channel
