I have had the same 622 and TV for three years. Always hooked up with RGB component cables because my Onkyo did not have HDMI inputs and outputs. Just upgraded my Onkyo and now have 5 hdmi inputs. The other 2 I am using (playstation 3, video camera) work perfectly so obviously the connection from the onkyo to the tv works fine, but I get no signal from the HDMI running from the 622 to the onkyo.
Just can't figure it out, I'm sure it is something simple. Is there a setting I needed to change before I pluged HDMI in to get the 622 to use the hdmi output?
Thanks for the help

Exact same thing happened to my 622 2 weeks ago. When I called in to tech support and mentioned that I knew there were issues with the HDMI on the 622, he said there is no on-going issue with the 622 and HDMI. yeah, right... Anyway, they sent a refurb 622 which cost me $14 to ship.

The new receiver should have come with a prepaid UPS sticker for returning the old one...

Yep, there was a UPS sticker to send the old one back. The new one cost me $14 to have shipped to me.

Thanks guys, have a new 622 on the way. These problems make "moving" somewhat of a pain, but the CSR seemed to know what was going on and will ship to my billing address without problems

good luck with that, I have a vip612, i am on my 4th one, cracking when the channel changes, its is coming from the Hdmi connection the tech gave me a $36 cable, before he left with out the tv on the box click, then we turned on the tv it seem ok but about into 5 mins it click again, louder because we had the tv on. Here it came he said maybe my Vizio was the problem i told him this my second vizio, and when i had a rental it did the same thing, i know its the Hdmi because when i hook the component cables and not the Hdmi no noise. but if i do that then i can't record any movies on dvd due to not enought audio ports on the Vip 612. He showe me a 722 but said there are a lot of issues with that box. I am going to call him today, but first call vizio and see if there is others having the same problem. I can live with the noise but the only thing i worry about is the Hdtv speakers can they be damage with these louc spikes. its on all the channel but more so with the locals. Su Meri i hope you have better luck than me. I am about ready to go back to Directv but i am scare that i pay dish the early discharge fee of $275 and go with directv i may have the same problem.

Over the past few weeks, I have had problems connecting to streaming services (Netflix, HBO et al). When I go to the TV's native Channels, I have no problem. The Dish internet troubleshooter shows I have a good internet connection. I'm wondering whether it's an issue with my internet provider or a problem with the Dish software on the Hopper Plus. Anyone else seeing this?

I have a DISH Hopper 3 (Software H713) with Hopper Plus (Software P15403). I have not tried streaming services but I primarily watch TVB Jadeworld international package which is only available by streaming and when I have an issue, I usually have to go to a non-streaming satellite channel first before the streaming channels will work again. What software versions do you have and what is the error message if any are showing on your screen? or is that Dish downloading logo just stuck and never finishes?

I'm on H713 on the Hopper and P15403 on the Hopper Plus. It shows internet connection issues and doesn't finish loading the various services. I see the "loading circle going around. Sometimes I get a message saying that the service is having trouble loading my content and to check the internet connection.

Did it ever work correctly before? Hard to say what the problem is. Usually for streaming, it will show the Dish logo with lines sweeping down to show downloading, never seen the circle issue. Did you try a manual reboot, red button reset, power cord unplug/replug to see if it makes a difference.

Might be worth just to ditch the hopper plus. No issues here on h713

Buy a roku and dump the hopper plus you'll be better off. If you have a smart tv you don't need either one. No hopper plus here and no issues!!!

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....

Monday 11/2 is a full slate for NBA League Pass as all 30 teams are playing and 14 out of 15 total games are on NBALP. Only one national TV game on Peacock/NBCSN (Thunder @ Cavs).

DirecTV is even having to use several MLB EI channels (from 745-748) and a NHL CI (770) channel to fit all of them in the guide close together. 5 games at 7:30 ET, 3 games at 8 ET, 2 games at 8:30 ET, 1 game at 9 ET, 3 games at 10 ET. Luckily NHL CI is light on Monday (3 games on CI).

DirecTV is providing both broadcast feeds for all League Pass games except Hornets, Magic, Bucks & Raptors that night. These are all teams that have local broadcasts via a OTA channel which is on spotbeams and have streaming deals (DTC) that are not exclusive DAZN teams which DirecTV just signed a deal with (à la Spurs, Grizzlies, Cavs, Pacers & T'Wolves). Its also very common that we don't get Raptors broadcast very often from TSN or Sportsnet Ontario on League Pass.

Only the Knicks, Nets, Wizards, Bulls, Celtics, Rockets, Lakers, Warriors, Avalanche, Sharks and Bruins feeds will be using remaps of 24/7 RSNs that night. The rest will be relying on the part time feeds, including the Nuggets, Blackhawks and Kings who will be on their alt/overflow channels, and MSG Western NY will be live on channel 635-1 to carry Buffalo area ads during the Knicks game.

The NHL Network alternate will be live on channel 215-1 with Red Wings @ Panthers for those blacked out of Golden Knights @ Bruins on the main feed.

The Thunder @ Cavaliers game will be on one of Peacock Game Pass channels that night for commercial customers, they'll also have the back to back U-Conn Women's and Men's Basketball. One of the part time feeds will also be in use for WWE Raw via Joe Hand promotions.
