How do I get closed captioning on my 625 dish dvr....

The Dish 625 as with the other Dish DVR systems has a fan built into the back of the unit. The fan runs nearly all the time to keep the internal drive cool. Sometimes the fan sounds louder that normal. what I do from time to time is take my shop vac and or the small vac u you use to clean your computer. and clean the vents around the fan. I do this on my desk top computer also.. Hope this helps.

The 625 receiver does not support any internet functionality. You would need to upgrade to a newer receiver box.

Hi my name is Mike Houston a Social Media Representative at DISH. With our Duo SD 625 DVR, it cannot receive HD signal, there will need to be an upgrade to our HD duo DVR systems. If you have any further questions about our DISH equipment please e-mail me at; [email protected]

Christy Hartl,

I can definitely look this over with you. This sounds like it is on one receiver. It is possible it could be the equipment, but first I would like you to check something for me.

Go to Menu -> Preferences (8) -> Closed Captioning (6) -> Caption On/Off (1). Make sure it is selected for "CC is on." Once that's enabled, try it again. If CC's are still not showing, press 'Info' on the remote and see if CC is listed on the program. Let me know if you have any questions.

It is not possible due to incompatibility, All dish VIp seris recrvs can utilize an external hard drive but is still different format styles from a pc. it will erase all your porgrams whenh you move it from device to device. at this time the USB ports are disable on the 625 DVR.

You will need to run a set of audio cables from the TV1 output on the rear of the 625 directly to one of the three audio inputs on the surround system. Thanks for using Fix Ya.

Not with the 625. You need the Vip622/722

Scott Dish internal receiver schematics are proprietary information and is not available to the public this includes DVR's as well. If you need cabling assistance let me know and I can assist you. Thanks for using Fix Ya and let me know if I can further serve you.

Officially, no you would not be able to since you no longer pay the $5.98 DVR fee which Dish charges for the DVR. Wish I could have given you better news. Thanks for using Fix Ya and let me know if I can further assist you.

your screwed. jk idk
