Tomorrow night is the first time I'm going to try this... basically I can only do it during the window, right? I really want MRV

You might want to wait then. See my post in the other thread about the major problem this CE has caused. Almost anyone attempting to opt in for MRV will have their box become totally unresponsive. In short, it is recommended that this download NOT be done until a fix comes out for it. That could be next weekend (iffy due to Christmas being next Friday) or the weekend after.
ALL of my DVRs, the HR20-700s, HR21-100s, and HR22-100s, have experienced this problem. Because of this, I was forced to deactivate MRV, which was rendered inoperable as a result of this CE anyway.

Not sure what Vader is talkiing about, but both my boxes have worked well with the CE software for the last few weeks. MRV still has a few problems, but all in all, I am very impressed with it.. No Unresponsive boxes on my end...

You are among the lucky few then, because this CE has, indeed, caused almost all users' boxes to become unresponsive once someone (a) has opted in MRV and (b) pressed the "list" button on their remote. We've had to RBR the units, then opt out of MRV to undo the damage.
Until this latest CE my boxes had always worked well after a CE download. This one, however, has caused major problems to many users.

Don't know about lucky.. I just know both my boxes are fine.. Have been using and watching MRV all morning with no issues at all.. I see there are some people experiencing issues, although I am not sure I am willing to call it as almost all are having problems.. Guess DirecTV is going to have to figure out what the problem is though. And what type or combination of equipment is having this problem

Yeah, I'd consider yourself lucky. My father and several buddies have all experienced this problem. It has happened to my HR700-100, HR21-100, & HR22-100s. I've got more than one model of each of these on my account, & every one of them froze as soon as I hit the "list" button.
