In infrastructure network (with an access point) ESSID is the same thing as SSID. They can't have different names. BSSID is simply MAC address of the WiFi interface of the access point.

The TIVO was actually compressing data while recording, since it had analog inputs only. This compression could be done with different quality settings (better quality = more space needed). DVRs record the original signal which is compressed at E* (D*) facility, therefore no quality settings.

It costs $325!!!!!:eek: :eek: :eek:

RGB input takes analog signal. DVI-I (which has DVI-D and DVI-A together) has the same analog signal over DVI-A pins so a simple adapter works. HDMI only has digital signal, therefore only HDMI to DVI-D adapters are available for a reasonable price. To convert HDMI to DVI-A a DAC is needed. This...

Channels? Does anyone know their channel lineup?

What is $9.99 fee for? Is this some sort of a lease fee?

When did they drop this requirement? When I leased 811, the lease agreement stated that I must maintain HD pack + AT60 or higher.

Let's assume you have leased a car. In the middle of the lease someone comes up with a new gas (MPEG-4) forcing you to get a new car. You, as a customer, don't see any benefit from the new gas. Would it be fair to have you pay for the upgrade. E* is going to raise HD programming prices to cover...

E* must have both Voom and Voom-less packages they move Voom from 61.5 to 110/119. Tons of customers can't even see 61.5 to begin with. 129 is not an option either (unless, of course, E* upgrades every HD customer to Dish1000, similar to D* deal with their 5LNB dish).

Unless $250 is a deposit which is refunded upon return, I'll wait to see how it works before jumping in. Also, does $250 deal include installation?

It works (likely via component video) because all parts of the signal (audio, luminance, and chrominance) are separate, thus hiding all difference between PAL and NTSC. Virtually any TV would sync on 60 and 50Hz and accomodate difference in scan lines (625 PAL/525 NTSC). You might run into...

It won't work via RF at all. It might work via s-video and separate audio. There are solutions, but new NTSC TV would be cheaper. :) PAL uses different frequency for audio component and somewhat different scheme to encode color. Even if you find channel which matches (PAL channel is wider...

At this time I won't buy any HD receiver, period. We might not get any new MPEG-2 HD channels. With switch to MPEG-4 looming, investing $750. :shocked :eek:

You see people hate, whine, complain here simply because if everything is fine, they enjoy watching TV, not writing to the forum. D* forums have 5 times less traffic because their h/w just works. Programming and install is discussed there. Now, D* is going to have HD locals, HMO DVR, so no...

There are 2 things which mainly keep me with Dish. Multiple DVRs per account and TNT-HD. Cox cable allows only 1 DVR per account and does not carry TNT-HD. Yes, Cox is more expensive (~10/mo, comparing to AT120, but with a few more channels worth watching), but it would be with HD-DVR, and...

Yes, I have checked it and barrel I had to use as well :) Well, after I disconnected all lines from the receivers and connected 522 first it worked! :shocked

For example here: DVE Avia

Tune your contrast WAAAAAAY down. Almost all new TVs (especially Sony) have picture settings with too much contrast and saturation to look "good" in the store. Try to compare what you see outside with what on TV. Better buy Digital Video Essentials or like and tune your set. This will not fix...

They are rated. I have also tried 2 different brands. Somehow 811 is fine with them, but 522 is not. Both of them use DP stacked freq.

Are all DP34 outputs equal? My setup is DP twin + 2nd dish pointed to 148 location. 3 feeds going to DP34. output 1 of DP34 going to 811 and outputs 2,3 to 522. I wanted to have an OTA antenna diplexed with one of the 522 feeds. When I do this, check switch on 522 shows one tuner seeing...

Is image worse (more artifacts) on dynamic scenes and better when the scene becomes more static?

522, 921, 721 receiver would let you do this. Technology cost money and second tuner adds cost to the box. Why do you think some TVs have PIP and some don't?

It might have been discussed here, but I can't find any reference. Is ot possible to have dish locals AND a few channels of analog OTA at the same time? Every time I add analog OTA channel to 811, it switches to OTA locals and dish locals are gone. If I go menu 6-1-5 and switch on dish locals...

Well, after a few e-mails to the executive offices, I have managed to have them fix my crappy install and ground the system. As far as I can tell, it's up to code, but I am going to ask my city inspector. I did lease the system from Dish directly, which helped me to some extend, but the...

I want to have something like this. OTA----\-----------/-OTA1 --------DP------???-----------/----OTA2 SAT----/-----------\---------DP ------------------------------\-----811 I.e. I need to have OTA signal split, instead of diplexed out. Of course I can diplex it out, split, and diplex...
