Yesterday I installed a replacement 722k to replace an old one that lightening zapped 
Everthing seemed to work ok except I could not watch the recordings on the external hard drive by going through "dish on demand" and "my recordings" as I could on the old machine and also on my other 722. That route only shows the recordings on the dvr and does not show the my media folder. I discovered that I could access the ehd using the "manage my media" route and highlighting the recording and selecting the view option. Also everything else related to the ehd like transfering to and from seemed to work.
Thinking this was a wrong setting I set in on trying to find an option to fix it. After searching everywhere I gave up and decided to call Dish. After being transferred to three different CSR's I was told that this was a change that was made in the latest software version update which the new receiver had and the previous one did not have. I questioned such a backward step in the ehd functionality but the CSR insisted that this was the case. I expressed my displeasure but of course all I got in response was "have a good day".
My question is has anybody else run into this situation, and is this really an intended effect of the new software? It requires several more steps to get to the ehd recordings. I cannot imagine they would intentionally make such a change unless they are trying to make the ehd more complicated to use and thereby discouraging its use for some reason.
Sorry about rambling on so much, but does anybody have any info???

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....

It states the average amount they are under water is OVER $7,000. 
Personally, I tend to be the type that drives a vehicle for a lot of years....do my own oil changes and other fluid changes. Just replaced the spark plugs and a couple coils. Youtube is great for things like this.

This should hit a lot of folks with a dose of reality. I can only imagine how much more common this will get as AI progresses.
I read several stories on this and most are clear as mud. They say a lot of the stolen bitcoin has been "locked out" and that everyone will be made financially whole. I guess time will tell if either of these statements are actually true.

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?
