First of all, I wanted to thank everyone here for all the help they've given me. Being a lifelong cable subscriber, I'm VERY naive about the ins and outs of satellite systems and really appreciate the help. I've been disappointed with the installers so far in that both have been itchy about leaving. The first guy showed up at 4pm (noon-5 slot) and was at the house until 8:30 (left before showing me anything), and the 2nd guy left because his boss called and made him because he had another appt. (When he left my 625 was not working). I understand the workload/travel has to be unbearable but that's their job.
I now have a 322 in my bedroom controlling the bedroom and basement tvs. I also have a 625 in my utility room that controls my living room tv. I'm going to have a friend come over and try to feed the wires from the utility room to the living room so I can put the 625 on the living room tv.
A couple more questions:
1) I'm not sure the installer left me enough dual feed from the dish to make it all the way upstairs to the living room tv. Can I somehow extend this so I can make it upstairs or will they have to rewire that dual feed from the dish to the 625?
2) My goal is to have PIP and DVR working on the living room tv. Where I can record one show but watch another (pretty much like there were 2 tvs). I have only one coaxial input on this tv. I also have an S-video input or RCA inputs. Will this work the way I want it to?
3) Does the 322 support PIP? I'm just wondering if this is the best setup. I have 3 tvs with 2 dual receivers (1 dvr). Will the 625 hooked up to 1 tv have the same capabilities of a 625 hooked up to 2 tvs?
Again, thanks for all the help.
