I had received an email from Dish Network today regarding the free Sling Adapter they wished to send me. Questions; Will the Sling Adapter work with the applications that I have already paid for and installed onto my phone & tablet (both Android)? Do they require that the original Sling...

Check out Martin Scorsese's "Hugo", or Michael Bay's "Transformers: Revenge if the Fallen" in 3D, and I think you'll see that James Cameron has increasing competition where directing 3D movies are concerned. :-)

I have just upgraded my 622's to a pair of 722's and was experiencing the very same thing. In my case, I am attempting to remove my old receivers from my SlingGuide account, so that I can add the new receivers. No matter which browser I use, I am sent back to the SlingGuide account login page...

Well that bites! I own one ViP622, and lease a second one. I can honestly say that I will not be purchasing or leasing a 922 until the IR is enabled. I can use the universal remote of my choice (Harmony 880) with it.

I was trying as late as 7:00 p.m. CST. with no success. Just tried again and it appears to be back up and running.

Yup - sitting on the "Connecting to receiver, please wait" message. Let's hope they are performing some sort of update.

I can confirm this - My 622's were activated and I have SlingGuide functionality and never needed to modify my firewall.

Thanks again. The 622 that I have in my home theater runs in single mode, so the tuners are not split, feeding other televisions, so tuner one should not be an issue. It is primarily viewed in the early morning while my wife is on the treadmill, so I shouldn't run into any major conflicts...

Thanks Zulu - it sounds as though the Solo will suit my needs. It is just my wife, my six year old daughter and myself, and the only time I would use the Sling is when we are either on vacation, or when I am taking my daughter to swimming lessons. I'll be able to stream live TV if I wish, from...

I am considering the purchase of a Slingbox, but see a number of models. What is the consensus on the Slingbox Solo?

Can someone confirm that having a ViP622 or 722 without an external Slingbox, will not allow streaming of content to computers or mobile devices. Perhaps I had incorrectly read the transcripts of the Tech Chat, in that they gave the impression that those models would have some sort of...

Charlie - stop re-naming the gorram packages and use the capitol that would be saved by not having to change your marketing materials (for the re-named packages) to off-set your rate increases!!! ....jeeze... ...and I'm not even a collage graduate! :rolleyes:

I have no feeling one way or the other (unless I had received the update and had problems with my local channels). However many variables there may be within the 622/722 platform, to have issues being reported from such relatively small sampling group (active members posting in this forum)...

On behalf of those of us who have not received L615, thank you for volunteering to be beta testers. :D Perhaps this is why Dish did a staged roll-out? ...it is unfortunate that they appear to skip over any thorough testing their firmware. Sorry to hear that it has messed up your locals...

it wasn't all that 'all'. Both of my 622s remain at L614.

It's a deal! ...but only after this season of 24 has finished airing. :D

Maybe so, however Vegas has legalized 'things' that we don't see all that much of in the frozen Midwest. :)

whoop-a-dee-doo!!! now we have two!!! :rolleyes: ...still waiting on CBS, ABC and CW in Madison, WI

I am in the 1 HD channel boat with ya pal! ...on the bright side, we can now record more than one local program in HD (providing you've got an OTA antenna)! I will try e-mailing engineers at WMTV and WISC to see if they can give me any idea as to the hold up and/or any eta. Stay Warm! Spence

WTH? Only one channel? I wonder how long before the others come on line. Also, am I the only one that finds it odd that the first and only channel (so far) is the local FOX affiliate? Considering that FOX is owned by NewsCorp, which is (I believe) still part owner in DirecTV. I would have...

Correct. I also understand that the Eastern Arch will be made available, once the new smart-cards have been distributed, so there is a chance that at some point in the future, Dish could swap out the community Dish, with one pointing to the sats on the Eastern Arch.

There is nothing stupid about that question at all. Are you talking about HD via terrestrial broadcast or HD locals from the satellite? I have a co-worker that swears that his father inlaw is getting HD locals via the satellite. I know that new installs could be set up with access to the...

Okay, I have confirmed that the HD LILs are still going to be on 61.5. I have also confirmed that the installation is 'no charge' (with 2 year contract). I am scheduled for installation on the 22nd. It should be fairly simple for the installer as I've got a Dish 500 on the roof, cabled and...

Excellent news. Do you know if the HD LILs are available via the Dish 1K or are they still on 61.5 (requiring a second dish)? Something new to look forward to when I get home! Cheers, Spence
