If you are saying play an HD program in the 722 and watch it on your laptop, it is possible with a Hauppauge PVR model 1212. It takes the component out from the 722 and stores it via USB 2.0 on your computert hard drive. hunk342 09-21-2009, 04:28 AM It is possible to watch ur HD prog on ur laptop, with the new dish remote access, just logon to ur online acc and u will be able to remotly access ur 722/622/211 with ehd jim5506 09-21-2009, 02:50 PM You can program and set the dvr through the internet, but you cannot view recorded or other content through the internet. You must view with your TV only.

Easiest solution for what Auk5150 desires is to get a TV with an HDMI input on it. Alternatively, most laptops have an S-Video output on them, if he can stomach watching the content in SD ! | |
