Thanks, that's good to know! Totally agree about missing the 4x fast forward. Just another reason I miss the 722.

Thanks so much for the reply, and the good news! I was devastated when I lost all my recordings on the 722, but I do have at least 3 EHDs around here somewhere, so that's good to know! Glad I can pick up that Bluetooth adapter on Amazon. While I don't have prime, I do always make sure to...

I've had the Hopper Duo for a few months after my 722K bit the dust, and haven't really delved into all that much. The strangest thing is how the DVR can be 40% full, then all of a sudden be at 80% the next day, even with only one or two new recordings. Also, is the Bluetooth adaptor Dish has...

I've had this 722K since 2010, and have had no problems. I had it on one day last week, and walked back into the room to see the "starting up" message and nothing taking place. Reset didn't help. Unplugging didn't help. After unplugging it for several hours and plugging it back in, there is...

It's 2020, and I was trying to set up my other remote on my 722k for the first time in ages! I was getting nowhere until I read this post concerning the Modulator Setup. When I went there, the TV 1 Out mode was set to "off" for some reason. I switched it to "air" and voila! all of a sudden I...

There is no way we are going from where we are now to packing arenas/stadiums anytime soon. NHL & NBA might as well come to grips with that and move on.

Oh, I get that. I've got tons of stuff saved on my DVR and a couple of ext hard drives that I'd never want to lose. I'm just running low on space available at this point (I've got a 1TB ext hard drive coming soon), and I've been so relieved to have this Youtube TV subscription that was given...

Yes, indeed, the DVR familiarity is one of the main things that keeps me with Dish. A friend let me have one of his six Youtube TV subscriptions last summer, and it came in real handy when we lost the regional sports networks. The main thing I like about that is the limitless DVR storage, and...

I think you're right! A friend let me have one of his 6 Youtube TV subscriptions last summer, which enabled me to still watch Cardinal baseball. He was thrilled to hear about the extension today (as I was), but I told him I seemed to remember that extension for Dish lasting less than a week...

Thanks so much for all that great info! Things are still up in the air, but I've got to make a decision very soon. I'll be in touch.

So if I HAD to get a 3TB or larger, it wouldn't make any difference? I've just never done that with anything larger than a 2TB since Dish had said that's the limit.

Yeah, that's what I'm afraid of. I sure wouldn't want to lose all that stuff.

Okay, thanks. I just need to run the signal to one TV for now, but I need to look into those Joeys at some point. I was sometimes frustrated with not being able to run a second high def signal (with the second tuner) to my other TV from the 722.

Back to one question I had in the original post. Would they just send me the new Hopper? I assume there's not much involved for me to set it up on my own.

I do hope to get one of these on Amazon, as I have money from gift cards there. I've just never bought anything "refurbished." I'd like to see a price much less than this for a refurbished product.

I may look into the Hopper 3 if the cost is around the same. I don't really need to send the signal to another room, just 2 TVs in the same room. I'm a little confused about the storage limits on the 3, as I've also seen 2TB listed (without the use of those Joeys, whatever they are.)

I've wondered about that, since there was always a 2TB limit as far as what you could use with the Dish DVR. It appears the Duo is also 2TB, so I wouldn't want to clog it up with what I've got on the 722. I would just leave that on the external hard drive. That's a decent price for a 6TB for...

Thanks! I was afraid of that. I didn't have much luck last night doing a quick search for 2tb ext desktop hard drives. Would like to find something for less than $80 if possible.

A couple of questions from a video hoarder concerning a possible move from a 722 to a Hopper Duo. Apparently I can get this upgrade with little or no cost from what I hear. Would they just send me the hopper? I was told I can still keep the 722, which is nearly full of saved programs. I also...

Thanks for the reply! Looks like I will end up going the 24-month route and just the Top 120 (no +)

I have some discounts that are expiring, and need to decide what to do next. I've been getting the Top 120+ for the last several years in order to watch baseball on the Regional Sports Channel. With those possibly being gone for good, I've got to go down to the bare minimum I can afford for...

I actually have a couple of 1TB external hard drives full of stuff (that I'll likely never watch!)

Thanks for the replies! Yes, TV2 is composite out only. I believe what confused me is the fact that I had run it out to a DVD recorder, then I had run the component out of the recorder to the component in of my older TV. The 722 has been great over the years, just wish it had two HDs out...

I haven't messed with this in a while, and have apparently forgotten how to get this connection. I just got a new Samsung TV (2018 model), and ran the HDMI cord from the 722 to the TV and it works fine. This TV does not have a component video option, so I wanted to run TV2 to another TV that...
