  1. DISH™ High Definition Discussion
    I recently left dish and went with a local small telephone / fibre cable company. I really miss the Dish DVR and having less HD channels. However I have found out that what I thought was going on was ... a lot of twins games that supposedly were being broadcast in Hi Def were not being shown...
  2. DISH™ High Definition Discussion
    I also have been wondering about getting the Twins at times in HD. The announcers say it is being broadcast in HD but it is not necessarily showing up on Dish. I really enjoy the games in HD and can hardly stand watching anymore in SD and have been wondering if Dish is actually showing all the...

    Just checked out the offer for the first time on Dish site. I see it says Free for 3 Months and then in smaller print in parentheses it says (with commitment) whatever that means.

    I run into lip sync problems fairly often on various stations. But if I just toggle thru my TV inputs and back to my dish input the lip sync situation has always corrected itself.

    Thanks, but it is still not clear to me if any hard drive will work or if you need a special one or kind. Thought I read somewhere that not just any type of HD will work.

    Just exactly what is it you can do to increase your recording storage? Certain type of hard drive that connects to USB port or what. Then just call dish for authorization and pay a one time fee. If you have this increased storage on the connected hard drive does it still retain the Dolby 5.1...

    I should clarify that during the good rain shower I could not get much of anything. But I can accept that if it is raining pretty good. But not during light rain and or after the rain shower.

    I have always had the problem but just figured out tonite that it is the HD channel that shows no signal. The corresponding SD channel comes in but if I switch to the HD channel then no signal. Being as how I have things set up to go directly to the HD channel I was regularly getting a no...

    Our signal strength covers a pretty large range. From 18 to 55 depending on channel / transponder. Channels such as Fox Sports North, TBS, and several others generally come in on the low end. Locals at the high end and others generally run somewhere in the middle 30-38. On a clear day fine...

    I'm confused. Got a letter or whatever that seemed to say the price was going up but would get a 3 dollar credit for some period. The price did go up on my last bill. However, in an email from Dish they indicate that there would be no price increases for the 2009 year.

    I signed up for the 200 package with Silver HD. I notice in their brochure that dish says over 50HD channels in the Silver. Counting what they show in the brochure I only come up with 32 channels plus 6 dish on demand (which I don't think should really count as 6) channels for a total of 38...

    May not help but I see in my 722 receiver in setup where they ask if you want audio sync to HD or SD. Don't know if this would make any difference. I notice that my audio gets out of sync occasionally also. But I find that if I leave the dish input on my TV remote and then shuffle back to the...

    I pretty sure I was watching a poker show (High Stakes Poker) on the GSN the other day. However since, I have gone thru the whole channel guide a couple of times and I don't see it. What channel is the GSN on.

    In looking over my account I see a programming offer. Max HD ultimate programming package free for 3 months. Sign up today to receive a 10 a month credit for 3 months. Just what is this. If it is free for 3 months, what is the 10 credit for. Would that just come off your normal bill...

    Probably been asked before but... Currently have 722 serving two TV's. If I were to get another HDTV (to replace the currently analog 2nd TV) in order to have access to HD programming on this 2nd TV also... what would be the procedure. I assume I would have to get a separate HD receiver. If...

    I just want to add that all I have is a 2 1/2 year old Sony rear projection LCD 720P and I think the HD is great. I don't have anything to compare to but I am very satisfied. I hardly ever would watch shows like CSI Miami on SD as the picture never looked very good. Kind of dark etc. Same...

    I read a recent review where the person was comparing Dish HD MPEG 4 or whatever off the new eastern sats. The bottom line as I recall was he was very impressed with the HD quality. Thought it was better than from D and equal to over the air. Don't recall where I found the review. Just...

    I do get the golf / verses channel with the 200 pak but no HD. So it appears that one has to upgrade to the 250 pack in order to get the channel in HD. Golf looks a lot better that way.

    I live in North Central Mn. My local is out of the Minneapolis area. It is coming thru on cable. We kept basic cable just for insurance and high speed internet.
