    622 did not live up to my expectations

    It was set to 1080i. Tried 720p as well. Still crappy picture. Not really crappy just noticeably soft. The only other settings I saw relating to PQ was aspect ratio and format. Even at 4:3 the SD graphics were bad! I even tried a few settings on the plasma to help, but nothing did. With...

    622 did not live up to my expectations

    First off, let me say I was one of those idiots who paid 1K for the 921, right here at satelliteguys.us. Although we have been quite pleased with the picture quality, it is not very reliable. It requires constant re-booting, frequently fails to record shows, and locks up quite often...

    921 not recording (last weekend)

    For the last two weeks I've had timers not fire. When it happens, no timers will fire at all. The only way to fix it is to Hard Power Off (unplug from wall for a couple minutes) the unit. I've tried deleting all timers, reseating the smart card, etc. but the only thing that works is a hard...

    Favorites Lists

    Dish DVR's only allows you to create a grand total of 3 favorite lists. Given the number of channels available, you would think they would allow more. The "ALL CHANNELS" list and the "ALL SUBSCRIBED CHANNELS" list is redundant in my opinion. The "ALL CHANNELS" list already shows "unsubscribed"...

    OTA channels in favorites lists

    After adding OTA channels on my 921, all of the OTA channels show up in every list. For example, we have a favorite list for LOCALS and one for MOVIES. After adding OTA stations, the list for MOVIES and the list for LOCALS now include the OTA channels. You cannot remove the channels from any of...

    So, what's the holdup? 811/921

    Going to wait I wholeheartedly wanted to give DISH my $999 for the 921, but after repeated delays, you know that it has some serious problems. With such pent-up demand and a lucrative holiday season coming up, why would they NOT release it? At first I was sure that DISH had the knowledge...

    Do you have questions on the 921?

    1. Will the program guide for the 921 include the current program video (i.e. the 501-508) or will it be full screen with no video? 2. Will the program guide be in 4:3 or 16:9 3. How will the OTA (HD and digital) channels appear on the guide? Will they be listed as a sub-menu or on the...
