I have L.634 and I have captions; they were turned on before I got L.634. Does this mean that if I turn them off, I won't be able to turn them back on again? Somebody else can try this, maybe; I'm not going to touch 861 for now.
I got L634 on one of my 622's last night.

For some reason, it starts up as CC3 instead of CC1. When I changed menu->8->6->5 to "1", it worked.
Does the Channel Preference option (page 5 of the pdf) work like HD priority if you select 'HD only'?? (hides duplicate SD channels when there are both HD and SD)
Just now I pressed the DVR button and selected My Media to 'send' some programs from my DVR to my EHD. Instead of the Multimedia menu, I got this message:
This feature is only available if your receiver is connected to your broadband Internet connection.
Fortunately I can still 'send' programs to the EHD by clicking on Menu and selecting Multimedia.
I am wondering why they did this. Is there some exciting new feature that would be available if I ran an Ethernet cable from my DSL router to my 622 Ethernet port and selected My Media? If so, why didn't they just create a new menu option (call it 'Their Media, maybe, to distinguish it from My Media)?

Ah, I see:
With an Internet connection, you have access to 1000s of on-demand movies and TV shows including additional content that is included as part of your subscription.
I didn't know the 622 had that capability. That is exciting.
That is the whole dialogue box. The next line says
For information on connecting your receiver visit
And that's all, she wrote.
I gave the fix earlier in the thread.
Change CC3 to CC1.
In other words, change menu->8->6->5 to "1".
(For some reason, the default is 3 which is wrong, probably a typo.)
Yes!! Channel Preference when selecting "HD Only", will remove duplicate SD channels that have both HD & SD versions.
Where is the "HDMI Auto-Detect" feature? When I press Menu-->6-->8, I get the same thing I've always gotten. I do not see an auto-detect option. Under diagnostics, I can run an HDMI test, but that's been there for a long time.
The HDMI Auto Detect is what the receiver will do when connected via an HDMI. It will set the receiver to the maximum resolution allowed by the TV automatically. You can still change it manually using "Menu" 6-8 HD TV Set-up, and change the resolution for 1080, or 720. Nothing in the menu's changed with this but it removed a set for CSR's when activating receivers.
So far, I'm liking L634. The pause bar to upper-right icon is nice (with or without timer count). Guide settings are nice, and more VOD via broadband. HD/SD preference in the timer setting is okay, but I'll never change it to SD...I would do that, why?
Thus far, I haven't found any nasty issues... Good job, Dish!

Hey guys, could you post some pictures of the new features? That way, us 722 owners know what to expect when we get them. Thanks.
Yeah, same here, mine is broke too. My 622 that is not connected to the internet, I can"t access MY MEDIA after pushing the DVR button once when I want to send something from the DVR to the EHD. Says I need to connect the receiver to the internet to access this feature. What the heck is up with this?
If you haven't tried already, do a power-cord reboot. Many of us have made it a habit of following this procedure after a software update and have discovered it corrects weird problems such as the one you're describing.
