Seems like a bug from years ago has reappeared on the 722 running L812. Last night we downloaded a Blockbuster at home movie that allowed 30 days to view. When we went to watch it today, it was gone. Someone on the other forum is also reporting this problem.

I have the same problem for several months now. I would wait until the nightly download is complete and view the program the same day then delete. The downloaded programs would actually show under the dvr section on DishAnywhere until the expire date though, but were unviewable.
My experience during the last disappearing rental period was the same as Gary's. I haven't downloaded any movies with my 722 recently, but I did with my 612 and that download still sticks.
No, it can't be a bug in the awesome 722. I thought only the the Hopper has bugs. 
This morning things got even stranger. We were going to download the movie that had disappeared, but found that it now was back in the list of downloaded movies. Since the time left to view had decreased by about a day, it seems that it had not been deleted from the hard drive. But it was not in the list when we tried to view it yesterday.
I'd say the HWS release was the fix!
Why would anyone want to trade a bug that bites only very rarely for 10 bugs that bite every day?
Nuance? The usual expression is, "It's not a bug, it's a feature!"
