    DISH Network’s ViP722k receiver only outputs 1080i with 1080p VoD

    As promised I’m reporting back to the forums with the resolution to this issue as far as I am concerned. Sadly, the technical issue is still unresolved. However, to DISH Network’s credit they did graciously allow for me to cancel my fledgling contract without penalty. DISH Network and I still...

    DISH Network’s ViP722k receiver only outputs 1080i with 1080p VoD

    Thank you and your post makes the most sense. On a side note, the more experienced of the two on-site techs who helped me in person just contacted me and said he is continuing to work the issue as well. So, that is pretty great to hear. Not as good as a resolution, but still pretty great. :)

    DISH Network’s ViP722k receiver only outputs 1080i with 1080p VoD

    Thanks,TonyT! Now that is a solid explanation that I can get my arms around. So, it isn’t an issue with the equipment, it isn’t a firmware issue with the 722k, but it is an issue with the roll-out of 1080p VOD for Dish Receivers other than the 922? “In time” the 1080p VOD offerings will...

    DISH Network’s ViP722k receiver only outputs 1080i with 1080p VoD

    TonyT...no sir, I beg your pardon, but the issue remains. After renting HD 1080p Skyline I downloaded it to my 722k’s hard drive. So, there are now two 1080p movies on my hard drive, no? Why does only one of them display in1080i? I should mention again that it is the VoD version that does not...

    DISH Network’s ViP722k receiver only outputs 1080i with 1080p VoD

    Thank you for your work TonyT, but I think the issue remains unsolved. As previously pointed out Hubble is not being rented as or is labeled as a “3D movie”. The movie was originally 3D while it was at the IMAX. Its official title is, IMAX: Hubble 3D (2010) - IMDb. So, as far as Dish and the...

    DISH Network’s ViP722k receiver only outputs 1080i with 1080p VoD

    Thanks, but if it was the TV then why can the TV properly display full 1080p/24 from the 722k via channel 501’s Tron 1080p offering? In hopes of clarifying the issue I posted some pictures of the TV at 1080p/24 for 1080p Tron and 1080i for 1080p VoD earlier in this thread.

    DISH Network’s ViP722k receiver only outputs 1080i with 1080p VoD

    n0qcu, as I posted earlier the issue was verified and the unit was replaced with another 722k to no avail. I re-read your post and see that you tested this successfully on a 722. I’ve seen on another forum that a member recently posted successful 1080p content for Hubble via his 922. So...

    DISH Network’s ViP722k receiver only outputs 1080i with 1080p VoD

    The initial 722k was replaced with a new *refurbished* 722k. Issue remains. Two different technicians verified the issue. One called and spoke with second level support (a.k.a. “Dr. Dish”) and was told the same as I, “DISH does not have 1080p VoD content at this time [even though the customer...

    DISH Network’s ViP722k receiver only outputs 1080i with 1080p VoD

    Thank you so much for this information. For the record, yes I am sure that all four times I tested VoD I rented 1080p. Due to your assistance I was able to finally convince DISH that there is an issue. If nothing else I appreciatethe confidence builder knowing that others with my equipment are...

    DISH Network’s ViP722k receiver only outputs 1080i with 1080p VoD

    I verified the following via the “display” button for my TV. I just rented Tron from channel 501 in 1080p and the DISH receiver displays it as 1080p/24. I then confirmed that when I rented IMAX Hubble 3D in 1080p the DISH receiver displays it as 1080i. Tron: Hubble:

    DISH Network’s ViP722k receiver only outputs 1080i with 1080p VoD

    Yes, my 722k is set for 1080i output. Yes, I know it will only do 1080p with 1080p content. Thatis the issue...the single 500 channels does 1080p, but none of the VoD 1080p moviesdo when rented as 1080p. They output 1080i. Also, I am not prompted with 1080pVoD to do the 1080p test like I am...

    DISH Network’s ViP722k receiver only outputs 1080i with 1080p VoD

    Thanks for the response! Sorry I don’t have the exact modelnumber for my TV, but it is a third generation SXRD Sony with “Full HD” via componentand HDMI. The 722k is on a HDMI port. My TV can do 1080p/24 and 1080p/60. I wentinto the DISH 722k’s diagnostics screen and confirmed that it is set to...

    DISH Network’s ViP722k receiver only outputs 1080i with 1080p VoD

    I’m a recent DISH Network subscriber who came over to themfrom DirecTV, Inc. I am very pleased with DISH in almost every imaginable wayand am truly thankful I can be rid of DriecTV, Inc. I did stump DISH Network’ssecond level technical support, though. Basically, DISH only has one “true”1080p...
