<title>[DISH] Duo Receiver 322 - Dish Network</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23394896</link>
<description><![CDATA[Hi,

One of the input signals is not working properly of my friends duo receiver 322. 

I have setup my DVR 722 at my house without any problem using Dish 1000+. Good signals for both inputs. Both tvs work great.

However i dont know what kind of Dish my friend has but Single Receiver 311 works great but the Duo 322 does not.

One of the input signals are very week. We spend hours to find out why. When i exchange the input signals tv1 to tv2 (input) and tv2 to tv1 from the separator then the other signal is week. First i thought it is the separator. No matter how one of the input is always weak. I bought high end gold separator which at least gives a signal. The original separator from dish network delivers only signal to TV1 for example and no signal to TV2.

Then i thought maybe its the receiver. If i hook the incoming satellite cable directly to tv1 i get a perfect signal. If i connect to tv2 i get also a perfect signal. Both do not work with a separator.

Does it have anything to do with the Signal strength, the dish or the lnbs on the dish???

Please help

please help.]]></description>

<title>[DISH] DISH 500 LNB</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23389407</link>
<description><![CDATA[I recently installed a DISH 500 at my cabin and took my DISH 1000 receiver to run it.  I think I must have the wrong LNB.  It has both Sat 110 & 119 outputs.  I installed an SW-21 on it.  But when I run diagnostics, it says there&#146;s a problem with the switch.  I get half the channels, and the other half says they are not authorized.  Is there a LNB that has a built in switch, or doesn&#146;t need a switch?]]></description>

<title>[DIRECTV] Sound level increases during commercials</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22908863</link>
<description><![CDATA[Do any of you know of anything that can be done about the sound level increasing dramatically each time a commercial comes on?

Some stations are worse than others but some nearly blow me out of my chair each time a commercial comes on.  It really gets old having to adjust the volume level with every commercial then adjusting it again when the commercial is over and the show I was watching returns.  It's often easier to simply mute the volume during commercials, but that gets old as well.

Thanks for any tips on ways to deal with this problem.

<title>Coax</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23340935</link>
<description><![CDATA[I'm a contractor who runs into cable issues all the time  in the homes I work on. I need to re-route existing lines or sometimes just install new ones. I 've decided to up the ante so I bought a compression kit which I like quite a bit over the crimp connectors.

Just a couple of questions. I can't always tell if existing coax is RG6Q or RG6. The Quad is thicker is it not?  My compression kit came with R-59G ends, and ends they claim do both RG6Q and RG6. I've since learned that some ends are designed for both, others are not. Is Quad worth using, it's not that expensive. What performance issues are there. If a house doesn't already have it, I see diminishing returns. If it does, I would think the right job would be to continue using it.

Anyway, sorry for all the questions but I want to do this type of work the best I can.]]></description>

<title>[Cable] which cable company serves walt disney world?</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23378852</link>
<description><![CDATA[I was wanting to get a copy of the channel lineup for disney world resorts and I can't figure out who provides the cable tv service there. I tried 32830 (the zip for lake buena vista) on time warner, comcast and bright house and all 3 told me that service isn't available there. I tried go2broadband.com and it told me that it couldn't figure out who serves lake buena vista.
So I figured I'd ask here and see if anyone can help me out.]]></description>

<title>[DISH] doesnt sharing a dvr between 2 rooms defeat the purpose</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23386338</link>
<description><![CDATA[doesnt sharing a dvr between 2 rooms defeat the purpose of having a dvr?  How does anything get recorded if 2 people are watching at the same time?  There website forces one dvr to two rooms. Even though dish network would work better,  the forced choices don't sit well.  If i have to go directv it has to go on the roof, which i dont want it up there.  Is there a work around?]]></description>

<title>[DISH] Final answer: Can the 722 record two HD programs at once?</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23313986</link>
<description><![CDATA[I'm frustrated because I am getting conflicting info about this.  :uhh:  The Dish sales rep is telling me that the 722 CANNOT record two HD programs at once.  He says it will record one in HD and the other in SD.  I asked him to confirm that this is true even with the box in single mode - not the duo (sharing with another tv) mode.  I wouldn't think they would be wrong about this, since it would be a plus in their favor if it can indeed do so...

One note: I don't care about OTA signals - I am just asking about signal from the dish...

Please help!

Thanks!]]></description>

<title>[DISH] inactivity timer issue</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23378171</link>
<description><![CDATA[I have dish network and a VIP211 receiver (single tuner) split between the tv and a computer with a HVR-1800 tv tuner (analog/digital) to my computer which works fine.... I can change channels via media center remote on the computer, watch tv, record, etc etc......

Problem is when i set the computer to record at night the VIP211 ends up being in the screen saver mode (have the inactivity timer disabled) and the tv tuner in the computer loses the signal until i take the vip211 out of standby...

Any other way to disable the inactivity timer/screensaver on the VIP211? short of hitting it with a hammer?

tv tuner = Hauppauge HVR-1800

<title>Do I have no options anymore?</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23338513</link>
<description><![CDATA[I currently subscribe to DirecTV, a few years ago I was a Cablevision customer but was fed up with their rising rates and really wanted the new (at the time) NFL Network. 

Since the switch, NFLN has been my favorite channel, and is all my watch about 90% of the time. Except in the month of July, when my attention switches to VS for the Tour De France. If you took all my channels away and just left me with NFLN and VS, I'd be able to get by just fine. 

As most of you know, VS was taken off DirecTV a couple months ago I believe. It hasn't really effected me much yet, since the tour isn't until the summer. But I have missed some other cycling events that I would've liked to have seen. 

Does anyone know if DTV and VS are close to an agreement? If not, I don't know what option I have. Fios is still not here and I have no idea when it will be, and there is no use switching back to Cablevision since 1. I can't stand them, and 2. they still don't offer NFLN.

<title>[Cable] Motorola DCH6416</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23377203</link>
<description><![CDATA[Hey All!  This being my first experience with a Moto box, I was hoping I could get some insight from others... 

I was just installed with Windjammer Cable yesterday morning (Formerly Time Warner, and formerly formerly Adelphia) and my internet is working decently, but the cable is leaving alot to be desired... I can get most of my programming, but all the Guide, Info, and Menu will show is "To Be Announced" or "One Moment Please" (Makes it kinda hard to set shows to record, and can't see what's coming on or even what channel i am watching)... Several phone calls in today, several hits and powercycles later, I have a tech scheduled for tomorrow... Now I know on the SA boxes in the Comcast system (in Notheast PA, where I just moved from and worked as a contractor for), if we experienced the same issue, we could get into the internal menu, page 2 would show the servers, the IPG server would usually be "Waiting" while all others were "Ready", then we could force it to connect to the IPG and download the guide information  using a specific key sequence on the remote... Is there a way to do this on the Moto boxes as well?

Thanks for reading and in advance for any help!
