I have Dish DVR 622 which allows me to control one HD and Standard
television
I have set up with HD going to my Projector in theater room and the
2nd cable going to my office.
I'm trying to hook this up to media center and I'm not able to get any
TV signal. On my receiver 2nd TV out put is set on Channel 73.
When I scan for TV signal media center only show 4 channels.
How do I switch it to 73
Wondering if Media Center does support this kind of set up

I have tested by connecting the cable line to TV and it works.

Any inputs greatly appreciated

Thanks,
<Ram/>


You need to know if the channel 73 output from Dish 622 is Cable or Air.
The frequencies are different.

You would then scan either cable signals or NTSC Antenna signals depending on the setting of TV2 output on the Dish 622.

Be sure that the Dish Receiver is receiving a channel and is actually outputing the TV2.

By The Way you can change the RF output to whatever channel you wish (within a range) on the Dish 622 receiver. Just make the change with the remote 2. (The Blue one)
