I have a VIP 722 and when we record programs the play back stops for several minutes and then when it resumes the sound and the video are no longer in sync. Aslo the video will continue with no sound

The cables connected are in the wrong spaces, either on the receiver or the television. Using component style cables, Green, Red, Blue for video, and White, Red for audio, one of the video cables is in the wrong spot. Using RCA type cables, Yellow for video, White, Red for audio, the Yellow is inserted into a green component somewhere. The ViP 722 is compatible with HDMI, which has a much higher resolution (1080p max with the ViP 722) and a better refresh rate (the ViP 722 max is 30Mhz), and as there is only one cable for both audio and video, is much easier to use, if your TV is compatible, you should look into using HDMI instead,

Hi there anil! My name is Kimberly and I form part of the Social Media Department with DISH, It is my pleasure to assist you. When watching an already recorded event and having a timer set up to record it should not interrupt your viewing of that DVR event. When this happened, did you get an error message on the screen? And has this happened again? Please reach me at: [email protected] with the details.

Hi jrodd1 my name is Mike Houston of DISH Network, if the 722 DVR isslow in play back and stops prior to recording there are some things you can doto get this working right. The first thing you want to do is unplug thereceiver for 10 seconds and plug it back in. This will allow for the receiverto require the signal and will stop the slow play back and stops prior torecording a program. I will send a link to help with these steps. http://www.dishnetwork.com/SupportSection/video

you can use the drive as a upgrade but you have to buy the 1 time option from dish. i think they charge about $20 to turn the option on

Sounds like a signal strength issue. You may have either a low signal or something like a tree limb is blowing into the signal path dropping the signal strength to a point low enough to causes issues.

You will have to connect the Vip722 via composite or s-video cable to the DVD recorder and record in real time.

Reset the DVR and it "found" the rest of the program recording. Not sure of the reason for the loss, but resetting works to correct it.

If you have a dish network system as listed in post a DVR 625 this is NOT possible, it will only work with VIP series Dish Network recivers. and they must be used on teh same model reciever such as Vip 722, tranfer to EXT HD then Watch on another 722!

Edy, I am not going to say that this is the definite issue but Dish only has receivers that are 1080i compatible at the time which will give you some blurring and possible pixellating. 1080p will resolve these issues in the future. Therefore if you still need help let me know.

you may want to check all of your coax conections and stray ground shield piece littl tiny silver mtal wire will cause that reaction or you may have a ad reciever if so if ou have the directv inurance they will replace it for no cost to you at all.

good luck
