I have a VIP622 DISH network HDTV DVR receiver, can I hook up Direct TV service to it?
Question: I quite like the functionality and the storage of the receiver, but I like Direct TV's programming outdo. I was wondering if it would be possible to have the best of both worlds.
Answer: No. Only DirecTV paraphernalia for DirecTV service. Dish Network and DirecTV use similar technology (Ku Ensemble) but that about covers it. Different satellites, different coding, varied security.
