Finally got the new Turbo software last night!

[tstolze]

Received the update on my 722, still waiting on the 622.

The following movies are listed on my 722 on channel 501,

The Bucket List
Rambo
Welcome Home Roscoe
Definitely, Maybe
Harold and Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay
Tyler Perry's Meet the Browns
Drillbit Taylor

All appear to be $6.99 and available for 24 hours.

I was hoping for I am Legend at the cheaper price so that I can compare with the Bluray on my 119" screen.

Are you sure it was 501? If I punch in 501 in with the remote it takes me to 502 since 501 isn't available to me yet.

You just haven't been updated yet. I didn't have 501 channel until this morning.

I am Legend is suppose to $2.99 for the month of August, once it becomes available of course.

About freakin' time. I wasn't going to drop the money for a homeplug adapter until they got this done. Hopefully they'll have at least half as much as cable.

There in no stream or data on ch501 - nada. It's exist as pure number.
Will be interesting to see at least one picture from your screen related to ch501 and EPG.

Here are two quick shots, one of the guide, and a free Olympic event downloading.

Thanks. Can you select/tune ch501 and get Info for it ? With pictures ?

No its a plasma. My HDMI port has always worked. when I had my 622(though the audio on it made a screeching noise) and my 722 I've had for about a year and the HDMI has worked perfectly.

What I would love to compare is the current "HD" VOD and the new 1080p. I'm curious how HD the current HD really is...

You have a 720p display panel that can accept a 1080i signal and rescale it. Hard to say if Dish will give you the 1080p file or not. I am waiting to see the same thing since my PJ is 720p but can accept a 1080p/24 signal and rescale it.

As soon as I select it ask if I want to purchase. Three options, yes, cancel, and no.
I am not sure if they have included a second screen to make sure you want to make the purchase or I would continue further..

Looks like he is too busy watching WFN in HD.

I was waiting on a comment on that, my only excuse is that it is the only channel with anything on it just below the 501's on my guide.

Are those movies from ch501 listed in DVR menu list ?

 

[hrxtreme]

What type of menu graphic changes?

The latest 211 SW had the menu graphics change. Notice it primarily at the top of the menus and guide. Dropped the background lighter color and border, if that's how to explain it.

 

[Islandguy43]

What software update?

I haven't received it on my 722 or my 211. My wife thinks I am crazy when I keep trying to force a software upgrade.

I see channel 501 but don't see anything in the DVR menu list. Checked the On Demand too and didn't see anything.

Have you tried turning off your receivers for 30 minutes? The receivers need to be turned off.

 

[ralfyguy]

Some of the SD channels seem to look better to me, but maybe it's just me.

She's right.
