Fabulous work, Scott. What patients you have to stop and document your procedure like you did.
You raise some interesting points in your review that affect the 622 future life-
What I read in your report about MP4 is what I have heard outside of the E* engineers and from those working on the fundamental MP4 technology. Your report confirms these suspicions and "outsider" reports. IT has me a bit concerned that the decoding technology may need updated and if so, MP4 may not really work "artifact free" in the 622. The good news is that if this turns out to be the case, as opposed to what you reported that IT is hoped the issues are with the encoder, not the decoder then at least those of us who lease the 622 can get it exchanged for little loss of $$$ if a newr model that really works with MP4 has to be released. Of course this is just negative speculation but considering all the reports about true MP4 picture quality, it needs to be considered. One thing is certain from your report that the mP2 and other DVR stuff is now nearly bug free on the 622 so it should be a very nice upgrade for first generation 921 users. I am now looking forward to it.
Dish ?'s I see you are using the exact configuration I have here and thank you again for showing the review with that so I can relate. However, do you now have plans to switch to a Dish 1000 and if so, what are your plans for the 61.5? My only concern is that if the WCBS is remaining only on the 61.5 as well as some other SD channel options, will it be easy to keep the Dish 1000 with the 61.5 for the install package we will be asked to switch to for the MP4 channels.
Didnt even need to reprogram the remote, just needed to change the remote address on the 622.
