I would hope that's not "by design", unless I'm misunderstanding part of it. If I get the update, I'll try it out.
Has anyone noticed the new 722k DVR menu?

I hope I get this update soon. I still have the old interface. I have been using Dish Online alot lately.
i wonder if the ones who got the Updates where handpicked by Dish to be there "Beta" testers for it to fully roll out on all receivers. i got a 625, so my menu is still the same.
Have not received update yet, but am hoping that they will allow BLOCKING of ONLINE via guide. Sorry, DN, you are not NETFLIX or any other on-demand service - their product is far superior in quality and we don't even subscribe to them.
We block all pay-per-view. Pet sitters already load up DVR with programs we must delete when we return from trips. Found 722 in living room maxed out after most recent trip and just highlighted all non-protected and deleted - then deleted all the new timers.
No reason whatsoever to allow them to run up bills in the thousands of dollars because they get bored with a show 10 minutes into it when all they are supposed to do is come in, feed the cats, and leave.
Would really be nice if we could block all new timers - and require password to create one, as well.
Well, if they did that, I would lock my whole system before I left and not let them watch anything.
na, they allways do controlled rollouts. i would be suprised if there is ever a change to the 625 at all.
Interesting, you don't have the update but you already know how bad it is.... I really don't suspect that Dish is targeting Netflix (yet).
Sounds like your issue is that people you hire as sitters, not Dish's equipment. As for requiring a password to set a timer, you really want to have to enter one each time ? Granted, most people likely don't create a new timer every day...
Anyone have any idea when the software update will come to the 722s? I'm looking forward to it!!
For everyone who is wondering when they will get the update, this is only a guess:
It installed on my 722 over a month ago. I believe my machine was targeted because I use the online Sling Guide to program the DVR once a week. DVR is constantly connected to my network via a wireless N Game Adapter.
If you do not program your DVR remotely, Dish may not identify you as a good tester.

Not only do I program remotely, I manage, as well as download Dish On Demand content. Looks like with dishonline.com rolling out this week, we will all have it.
I'm still on L629! Are the numbers different for a plain 722 vs. 722K?
OK. Well, in any case, I apparently still have the old software, as my screens don't look any different.
