Fast-forward & Rewind Speeds are Wrong

[David Hellberg]

Ever notice that when you hit FF once on a 622 (or the older 942 which I also have one of), the display shows "4X" but it's really more like 15? Hitting it once again shows the "15X" but it's really more like 30? On the older 501's, it truly was "4 times" as fast, which I loved... made forwarding through free throws and time-outs during a basketball game easy, so you didn't miss any plays. But now, in high-def, even with only one FF click, the picture moves so fast you can't monitor the action. I've called DishNet twice in the past on this; they politely tell me they'll "file an engineering complaint." Two local experienced installers both were incredulous when I proved it was happening with a stopwatch, and said they knew of no solution. Anyone know what I'm talking about? Thanks a lot.....

Yep... 30 seconds forward then 15 seconds back if you need it... I can watch a football game in 30 minutes watching every play with the skips..
