    ViP 622 & 722 Running Bug Thread

    Ok, it's good (or maybe not) that my father and I aren't the only ones that have noticed audio problems lately. Not sure about my father, but I am not using HDMI and have had several times with no audio and had to reboot. My father was complaining of audio drop outs, not completely....I agree...

    HD Locals in San Antonio

    Ok, my question is, when SA locals are turned on, will the FOX station be available with the others, as my understanding is that KABB is asking Time Warner for extra $$ to re-broadcast over their cable system , hence no FOX-HD on TW? I will be moving to SA in a few months and am not sure...

    Additional 622 for $99 Upgrade Information....

    Take it for what it's worth, but just got off the phone with a Dish CSR and was discussing programming options, when I asked if he'd heard about the rumor of the promo to upgrade to a 622 and own it and he said he had, but that it wasn't going to start until May. That's all we got to discuss...
