I got a Vip622 receiver. I was told from a friend who was told by a DISH installer that there is a way. From what it sounds like is that from the coaxial in the wall, it goes through a piece of equipment and then to the TV2. You will be able to still have all the HD channels and the DVR capability. He said it's a cheaper way of doing it instead of using a totally seperate HD receiver. The nice lady on the phone at Dish Network wasn't very helpful. She had no idea what I was referring to. Same time, I don't think she realize what she is doing anyways.

There are 100's of threads on this site. I am sure this may have be discussed. I apologize now. If it has been discussed, could someone point me in the right direction?

Here's a question or an idea.. for the TV2, could you run the connection from the 622 to 211 then to the TV? would that solve anything.. or is there something physically inside the 622 that doesn't allow HD to TV2 if you are dual mode...

I am just want to be able to watch two different shows in HD but the ability to watch the DVR on either TV (and w/o buying an OTA antenna since my locals come in through my dish).. Yes, a pipe dream from what it sounds like, but isn't the market out there for this?!!

There is no second HD output circuitry in all existing receivers/DVRs.

Again, with TV2 out you can watch only SD. To watch HD on TV2 you need to connect it with 622 using HDMI or component cables and you will have the same channel on both TV1, TV2.
RF connection has only SD resolution. You can only configure it to work with HD OTA using splitters as described in this thread (if your TV has OTA HD tuner).
If you connect TV2 with 211 with HDMI/component and with 622 with HDMI/component, then you can watch different HD channel with 211 and will be able to watch DVR too.
But you will need two receivers to watch two different HD channels on two HDTVs.

I do exactly that. I have my TV1 hooked up via DVI and my TV2 hooked up (with 75ft) Component Video Cables. Both TV's have excellent HD pictures. So, yes, it can be done!

If you will read OP posts ["HD to TV2 if you are dual mode"], you'll know you're incorrect when proposed your setup with SAME program on both TVs.

NO, It cannot be done !

Ifa set is hooked up withcomponent it is seeing TV 1 nit TV2. you can indeed hook up two TVS one HDMI and one component if you want them tos ee the same thing. If you want independent output that is another story.

I'm getting fabulous picture on Ch. 148 4k, but zero audio with H713. This is with a recorded show (Notre Dame game). Anyone else have this? Audio is fine on every other channel.

It's a known issue.
For a temporary fix, go into the menu, Audio, and turn Dolby Audio "OFF". You will have PCM stereo audio.

I was able to give the tech ops team some data logs so they could diagnose the problem, and they rolled me back to H708 temporarily. It fixed that issue.

They let me know that they understand what caused the issue, and it will be fixed within a few weeks in a new update.

I guess they will be busy when lots of people start asking for rollbacks to H708 now that you mention that downgrades of software does exist because it will likely fix the OTA Single Tuner and the IR Remote problems in H710-H713.

Sometimes a thread gets so many posts in it that is can cause issues for the server so that why today we introduce The Song Name Game Part 3!

So let the game continue!

The last song was added by Bobby who posted...

One Meat Ball - Andrews Sisters

CONTINUE ON AND HAVE FUN! WELCOME HOME TO SATELLITEGUYS.US!

Here are the original rules for the game as posted by WebbyDude back in 2006. http://www.satelliteguys.us/threads/68645-Song-Name-Game

Just name a song title and the band who performed it. The next person does the same thing, but needs to list a song title or band name which includes a word from the previous entry. Pick songs from any genre.

Example:

Long Live Rock and Roll -- Rainbow

Rainbow in the Dark -- Dio

Another example:

Ride the Lightning -- Metallica

Lightning Strikes -- Ozzy Osbourne


Get it?


An additional note: we all know that song titles, sometimes, use profane words. Because this is a family friendly website it is advised that you clean up that title up a bit. This is accomplished by using something like sh!t instead of the real word. Thanks....

Stargate SG-1 cancelled, Atlantis renewed

The future of Stargate is in question today, as SCI FI Channel has cancelled the long-running Stargate SG-1, Multichannel News reported today and a GateWorld source has confirmed. The news regrettably follows the airing of the show's milestone two-hundredth episode on Friday.

Stargate Atlantis, meanwhile, has been renewed for a fourth season, with the network hoping to see that the spin-off series can stand alone, according to a source.

I have gotten back into watching SG-1 and I have recorded most of the episodes to binge watch. What episodes are about the Antarctic or was this a movie? Also where could I watch the SG-1 movies?

Well, there are a couple involving the Antarctic. "Solitudes", S1 E17 (one of my favorites), Then, "Lost City', S7 E21 and E22. Then, in the SGA pilot, "Rising", S1 E1 and E2, it starts out in the Antarctic for about the first 20 minutes or so.

Which one has O'Neil being Ancients? I am at the end of Season 8 now.

If I understand your question, O'Neill had the Ancient's knowledge in the "Lost City" two-part episode. That was when Anubis attacked Earth and there was a big battle over Antarctica.

Really excited for this season with Kentucky having a new coach and some really exciting recruits. Probably won't last long, but here's hoping this season is great.
