Connecting the 922 to the HDTV depends on the connections on the tv and which ones you intend to use. If you plan to use the 922 for HD, then you will need an HDD200 decoder for decoding the HD from the Satellite, or the R5000 solution, in which case your tv will need to be connected to a computer, or the 16:9time solution, which I'm not sure just how it works. With either the R5000 or 16:9time solution, you will have to send the 922 off for an upgrade, around $500.
As far as connecting the 922 to the dish (much simpler), it depends on what equipment is being used at the dish. Using ribbon cable suggest you have lnb's and not lnbf's. There are 2 coax cables, use one for ku-band and one for C-band. There is a group of wires with 2 heavy wires that power (36v) the actuator and the other 4-6 wires are used for controlling the position of the actuator. Another group of wires control the polarotor (servo motor) that gives you horizontal or vertical polarity.
This probably should be asked in the C-band section of the FTA Discussion Forum? You might get a better response?

The receiver should be connected to the TV via the S-VHS output of the DSR922 and an S-VHS input to the TV. Audio is connected in much the same way using the RCA audio output connectors.
If you didn't already suspect this, you need to contact a professional installer or risk damaging some expensive equipment.
Because the DSR922 doesn't have component outputs, you must use either composite video (yellow RCA) or S-VHS to connect the receiver to the TV.
What is the easyiest way to setup the receiver to my tv i don't want to record i just want to watch.Thank you I just look at the package the cables came in here is what it says.Designed for HDTV RCA high performance Componet video&sterio audio cable.It says check to see if your components have these jacks One says pr is red pb is blue y is grn and then L is white and ris red Hope that helps for me

The 922 receiver will not get HD, unless you have an HDD200 decoder (or R5000 solution, or 16:9time solution). The HDD200 connects to the 922 and has component outputs for the HD hookup.

You will still need the 922, they work together. If it was purchased in 2002, it should be fine. You do know you will still need a subscription for the programming? I think Nebraska PBS HD is the only current one ITC? If you subscribe to any of the 4dtv movie services, the HD version is included. I think the count for 4dtv HD is at 8 channels?

Some cable systems use it and one of the Canadian Satellite Operators uses it, I think BEV, could be the other one? It would work with Motorola made boxes....

Starchoice uses the HDD200 but they are not going to work in a while for choice , so there should be some showing up on ebay soon.
