I'm assuming customer candidate means this will be the version that gets released to all users soon?

059E on my hr24/200 DVR HD Receiver and 057B on my HR 24/300 HD Receiver wonder why different on on my HR 24's when we been getting same for both receiver awhile

My HMC HR34 Repeatables have increase by one since last week!

Issue: Several Pinks Screens - Just a Few Seconds More was Pink, follow by a solid darker pink. These occur before the Receiver self-check screen.

Issue: 30Slip - Can't get beyond one Slip at a time. And that first one even goes backwards.

Issue: SkipBack - Doesn't work at all..

Issue: More Info Button - Clicking Info Button does not default to highlighting the Channel Banner More Info Button

Issue: Deleting Recording - Deleting Recording from the Program's More Info screen doesn't always take you back to the PlayList. Instead, you are often booted to Live TV or some other GUI screen that's not the PlayList. (A carry-over issue from the SDGUI)

Issue: Scrolling Effect/OFF - Guide Skip Page - While Scrolling Effect is in the OFF position, the Guide Skip Page with Page Down.

Issue: Scrolling Effect Switch - The ON/OFF Switch is not recognized.

Issue: Recording Tips - Recording Tips are showing up while Settings/Display/Preferences/Recording Tips setting is in the OFF Position.

Issue: My DIRECTV - What's on Now - Four of the four What's on Now are showing four correct posters, but time for all is 6:00a for one and 7:00p for another at 11:30 PM

Issue: Audio/Language - Setting in BLANK in More System Info screen

Issue: DirecTV2PC - Info - Well a couple of weeks ago CE got the HR34 Recorded programs to show in DirecTV2PC, but each Recorded Program Info is mark Unknown on all those I check.

Is there some trick to hitting the right time to enter 02468 on the HR34? Seems like it takes me 10 tries, when I used to hit the HR20 and HR24 on the first tries.

[Druzifer]

As soon as the very first blue screen is seen. It is there for a spit second as it quickly goes back to the solid border color you selected.

The HMC is not like the HR24 where you start when the Front Panel activates.

[Jason Whiddon]

Ah, thats what Im doing wrong I guess.

[Druzifer]

Ah, that's what I'm doing wrong I guess.

Yeah, the first couple of weeks I worked it like it was a HR24 instead of a HR21. And did like you, several tries. But once I waited for that flash of a blue screen, I been successful on my first attempt every time.
