I just got the 722. I have a TV that supports 720p, but when I set this up on the 722, I get no picture on my HD channels. IF I put it on 420P, the channels are fine. Any reason why?

Do I need to hook this up via HDMI wires?
 
Because no such resolution provided. :)

480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i.

By who? Dish and those particular channels? My TV? I checked my manual and it says he supports 720P and 1080i.

Anyway, my TV started receiving the 720P feed after I adjusted my color setups back to the original setting.
 
Check to make sure the particular component input on your TV accepts more than 480p. On some older sets, only one of the component inputs can accept HD resolutions, the rest are 480p max.

If there is any difference between component and HDMI, it is probably more a factor on the input settings on your TV. PQ should be about the same, component or HDMI.
 
Thanks for the replies. From my manual book for my TV, it doesn't say which inputs supports 720P, but for now, 720P is being seen and it looks fantastic. Can't wait until baseball starts.
