I have a vip722 with an external USB drive connected to the
rear USB port. I wanted to view some photos (jpg) located on
a USB stick. I put the stick in the front USB port. This
failed - system said only 1 device is support.
I removed the disk from the rear & rebooted the system
(without a reboot, the system would not recognize anything).
Now when I plug the photo stick into either the front or the
rear USB port, the system wants to reformat the USB stick &
erase the photos.
I called Dish. They claim that the vip722 no longer supports
photos on USB sticks. However, I cannot find anything on
forums or google to support this. In fact, the multimedia
menus on the vip722 appears to support photos on USB
devices. Did I get valid info from Dish?
Did activating the external disk deactivate photos?
Has anyone else had this problem???
