In addition, if you've got a Slingbox connected to your Dish receiver or a when they come out , you can stream live TV or DVR'd content directly from the SlingGuide web interface. I'm going to get in line to review the box as soon as it's available. It's a no-brainer and should make for a really cool review.
Clint, I'm looking forward to your impressions of the VIP I'm not so sure I'm sold on the GUI. I hate touchpads on laptops and this what it reminds me of.
It's hard to imagine how well a Harmony remote will act with it. I am curious, does the Dish receive content as p or i? How can I tell…? I just my 65" Panny pz yesterday, and I would imagine the scaler in the panny is better then the Dish receiver and it automatically upconverts everything to p that isn't.
I'll be using the scaler in the Anthem D2v when I get it, but that info will also apply to get the best results down the road… Thanks. Subscribe to our newsletter. Everywhere Threads This forum This thread.

We would need to use a coax cable to connect them. Anyone tell me the procedure or where to find a thread that already talks about this.
What other pieces of equiptment do we need on top of what came standard in the box. I see people mentioning diplexers, etc. Just want to know what connects to what. Any help would be appreciated.

If you entered the address correctly, SAT will flash three times. Write down the number you entered:. Make sure the Remote Address you see on the System Information screen is the same as the one you entered in step 3. If it isn't, the remote cannot control the receiver.
The SAT mode button will flash the same number of times as the address number for example, three flashes means address 3. If you have two UHF Pro remote controls in your house, ensure one uses an odd-numbered remote address and the other an even-numbered address.
Be sure to set the remote control antenna back of the receiver straight up so you can use the remote control from as far away as possible. Don't let the antenna touch anything. If your UHF Pro Remote Control 2 isn't working well from far away, you may be experiencing interference from objects near your receiver.
To improve your remote control's range, try the following:. Do not place an over-the-air antenna on top of your receiver. This is applicable for TV2 in Dual User mode. Unwanted UHF signals may interfere with signals from the remote control to the receiver.
To prevent such interference, you can install a 10 dB attenuator available from many consumer electronics parts stores. Adding this attenuator will help keep out stray UHF signals, but it will also cut down how far away you can use the remote control. You can do this by any of the following procedures:.

A quick flash is for zero. For example, if the code is , the mode button flashes five times, pauses, flashes seven times, pauses, and flashes once quickly. A quick flash zero before the three-digit code is for a TV, one regular flash is for a VCR, and two flashes is for a tuner, or amplifier.
