Hmmm, now the tech jive channel 101 is saying dark image fix next week. So if that is P266, the Dish Home Channel garbage must be P267.

I called in to tonight's Tech Forum with question regarding fix for the 811 "dark video" issue.

After being bounced around and waiting, I was connected to a very well informed "Advanced Technical Support" person named Justin.

He said they agree there is an issue with dark video on ALL outputs (not just S Video as so many have said). He is the first person at Dish who has admitted to me that they were aware of a dark video problem. Every time I have called Technical Support it was left with the feeling that they were in denial.

This dark video issue is supposed to be fixed with a software release on May 20, 2004 - in time for their "Summit" (whatever that is) which was referred to many times tonight.

I hope this is true. Until the dark video issue is resolved, my 811 is considered "out of service" even though I am paying an extra $15/month for this unit.

best regards,
Bob

That is more hopeful than Dish telling me repeatedly that dark image is only an s-video SD problem. Next week for P266 - yippee!
