Dish on Demand Freezes up with 622

[jcoppola]

I noticed this the other day, prior to that everything worked. When I go into Dish on Demand from either the PVR menu or channel 100 I get the "downloading interactive program" then I get to the dish on demand logo and it frezzes and will sit there. The only way to stop it is to power off the unit. Has anyone else notice this? A week ago it was working.

The only change I have made was to connect the ethernet cable anticipating it being active at some point, would this be a cause? Not that I think dish on demand is very compelling I'd like it to work. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Disconnect the ethernet cable and see if it still does it. That will give you your answer.

Noticed mine started to do that last night. I've made no changes to my system whatsoever. However, I found if I pressed Guide and Cancel a few times, I could get it to come back.

Mine started doing the same thing yesterday.

Thanks for quick reply, looks like I'm not the only one, must be a bug in a software update I guess.

622 Issues

Happened with me on Saturday night as well when I hit the dvr button twice. Did the cancel, menu guide a few times to bring it back. It just locks up. It was fine early last week and prior.

Locked up on me once... Never went back to see if it would happen again...

There hasn't been any new software updates for the 622, so what's causing the receiver to lock up? The only change is the new MPEG4 encoders.

It now works for me. although none of the choices ever seem to be available. But isn't the choice for TV enetertainment new?

I can't se how MPEG 4 encoders would affect the menu choices. am i missing something/

They shouldn't affect anything, just making an observation on the only change made last week.
