Check your HD DVR's ToDo list--Forced Software Upgrade to 02CB & 02B0

**outerub** · 02-11-2009 06:22 PM

My To-do list is intact however the EPG is good only until 2-23 at 7:00 at which point it switches to all TBA. Pretty close to two weeks I guess ....

There is no new notes / information for the updated software that is rolling out. It is a minor change that is targeting fixing the problems experienced overnight with receivers losing their ToDo list.

02CA was a recent release that is not out to all receivers yet. These receivers are being updated to 02CB.
The original notes are here: http://www.satelliteguys.us/directv-...-2-5-09-a.html

02AF was a release back in December that is on receivers that haven't been authorized for the new 02CA/B yet, and is being replaced with 02B0 immediately.
This release notes are here: http://www.satelliteguys.us/directv-...af-0x02b0.html (HR2x / R22 Software Release 0x02AF / 0x02B0)

Nothing was changed except for trying to fix the issue from last night.

Things some may see like the new Top Movies feature are simply verbage changes and a notification screen that were part of the 02CA / 02CB release previously.

When will it be forced. I did a reset and got my todo's back, but still on 02b3.

I reset and got nothing back. Thursday is a busy DVR day. I seem to have access only to 02AF.

Yeah I have 2CA that I forced back on a friday night on 1/30. Will mine get that new forced update also? When?

My todo list is fine, but my guide was erased and is slowly trying to rebuild.

One thing I've noticed is that all the movies in my Movies Now folder are gone. Probably because the all had an experation date and when D* screwed up the date last night the box did was it was supposed to and deleted them.

Both my hr22s rebooted and downloaded new software by themselves 30 minutes ago. The todo list seems to be repopulating starting with today's shows.

If you want PPV that bad, there are tons of channels in the 100's

No idea on specifically when you'll get the update. When things like this have happened in the past they worked from west coast to east coast, but also tried to avoid making receivers do downloads during primetime. It is possible some may not get it until overnight, we don't have too many details at this point.
