I have a Yamaha receiver and the code I use is 0176, which turns on the Yamaha receiver when I turn on my TV and Hopper W/Sling.

Yes I went through the teaching method with a Dish CSR as well as trying it myself. I also tried all the codes listed in the old 722 (about 15 of them) book including the one that worked with the 722. I think 0176 was one of them but I'll try it again.
IIRC, the 722 remote and Hopper remotes use completely different numbering systems for setup codes. UEI makes the Hopper remote, and here are the most common UEI Yamaha codes:
0176, 1176, 1276, 1376, 1476 and 0376. UEI also makes the RCA remote mentioned above and uses exactly the same codes as the Hopper.
The main issue with Yamaha is it has 3 power commands: Discrete On, Discrete Off and Power Toggle. Your old remote used toggle apparently, and worked fine. But your new remote is using discrete off only, making it impossible to turn on. One of the codes above may correctly assign the power toggle to the power button rather than discrete off. The RCA can be programmed with any and all Yamaha commands, as can the more expensive Harmony, should you decide to get a different remote. If you still have your old 722 remote or Yamaha remote, you can simply learn the power toggle. Just make sure it's the power toggle that you're learning.

Can you tell me how to do whats needed in your last two sentences? I do still have the 722 remote. Thanks
Except if you have lots of things to do, Change TV to a different input, switch audio am to FM, turn on Dish, select channel, turn on tv to dish input, set audio to correct input, then turn off dish and turn on Blue Ray and switch Audio amp to it's input. Logitech Harmony is for the sytems that are more than just a dish receiver and don't cost that much if you search.
I'm surprisingly able to do the majority of functions all with just my Hopper remote. I can change inputs on my TV, change the source on my stereo, start a blu-ray movie and use the fast forward and rewind functions.
I don't remember the learning procedure, but it's in the manual. And I don't know how you can guarantee you're getting the toggle without being able to analyze the signal somehow. All you can do really is learn it and hope it's correct.
I think Barry is talking about doing all of that with a single button press, like on a remote that can do macros.
Yes the Samsung sound bars generally auto turn off after a set period of time with no audio input. My HW-HM45C does so in 25 minute if I don't turn it off. BUT, I can turn mine on and off with my Dish Remote. I did this. Try and see if works for you.
Menu > Settings > Remote Manager > Aux Code > Audio Accessory > choose lookup code > Samsung (or your brand soundbar).
Should find correct one on first try. Test out with - + volume keys. If it works for you, then
Go back to remote manager & choose volume to set control volume for aux.
Your Dish remote should now work with your Samsung (or your brand) sound bar volume and On/Off.
Hello. I just got a brand new Sony STR-DG510 Audio Receiver to go along with my new Panasonic TH-58PX60U Plasma. Everything works great with the exception of the remotes. Obviously trying to reduce the number of remotes I have to have to lay around or to use so here's the problem (question). I want to re-program my DISH Network remote to simply turn on/off and control the volume on the audio receiver using the AUX button on the DISH remote and I can't get it done. I've tried all the codes in the DISH book and I've called Sony. Still no luck. Any ideas?
You didn't add which DISH receiver you are using. If it is a Hopper try 2475. That is the code for a Sony STR-DH510, it's close.
No, I think the last ones were made in 2013. The Panasonic TH-58PX60U is way older than that. It might be new to him, but it was made around 2007.
