It will most assuradly "Initialize" (format) the HDD you hook up to it; after a prompt. The reason is the 622 won't know what to make of FAT32, NTFS, or even EFS but will know it has a HDD hooked up and want to start using it.Purogamer said:When they roll out true on-demand, would the hbo on-demand and othe premium channel stuff be the first stuff we get, or 3rd party stuff like howard stern? Plus when it rolls out, doesn't that leave Dish's VOD completely obsolete?
I hope the boxes don't auto-format any HDD you hook up to it, you may hook up something with progams and lose them because you forgot something was on it. If you have multiple 622's in the house, and don't have your drives marked, it could be a nightmare. It should show you what's on the drive, but not allow you to access the programs unless the correct unit is connected to it.

Seriously, I love the VOOM channels but I am SICK & TIRED AND FED UP with VOOM-Lite...and all the double-talk, finger-pointing, and rhetoric we've been hearing since...what?...last October or November? Dish Network and Rainbow Media have been deceiving their customers, and lying to SatelliteGuys members & staff for the past 7-8 months. It's time to stop our "wishful thinking" in that someone on Fantasy Island will magically correct this nonsensical fiber problem, and start "demanding" answers!
We can start by renaming the VOOM HD Programming Forum to the VOOM HD-Lite Programming Forum since both Dish Network and VOOM are both culpable and can share the blame. Let's not sugar coat our feelings nor appease any of these yutzes in the hope that one day, out of the goodness of their greedy little hearts, they will provide us with the HD services we're paying to receive. Last time I looked I was paying for DishHD...not DishHD-Lite!!!
Watch out you'll get called a Newb.jerryez said:I think that is a good idea. Name a thread Hd Lite thread and anyone making a HD Lite complaint in another thread, move it to that one thread. That way most of us would not have to listen to the bitching over nothing. Of course there would not be many other threads, since most of the threads get taken over by the HD Lite moaning and groaning.
I think the definition of Goodnights abs were perfect.BFG said:You know if no one ever knew the numbers of the resolution, I wonder how many would say the channels look softer than other. I think a majority of folks are stuck on the numbers game
James Bond on FilmFest has looked great to me...

Purogamer said:Well now that scott has said they'll work with any box on your account that has the ability to use them, the concern is moot. It'll just load up the program listing...
I have no reason to believe it would be NTFS or any windows-based file format since the boxes use linux...
rustamust said:RIGHT ON
My feelings exactly as I find most to be much better than SD although my SD has improved. Must be the closeness to Dish and Charile takes care of CO. NOT
