Apparently, this is erasing scheduled recordings for some people also. Might want to check that when you get a chance.

Also, one is reporting that his favorites channel list was erased.

According to one poster, D* is aware of the problem and looking into it. Who knows

i didn't lose these . wew ....... if they're looking in to it then they apparently weren't trying to do anything last night that might have caused this.

Seems like another symptom is it changes the resolution back to 480i

Edit:
I added the symptoms that have been reported to the original post, as I see more I will add them. (if I get back in the office later that is)

I found out from DirecTv that it is a problem over on there end! I don't know what cause it.

Directv is aware of the problems and it's on their end. A lot of people with HR boxes are having the same problem.

**msmith198025** · 10-06-2008 10:18 AM

So no one with the regular H series had any problems? Haven't seen any reported

I had the same problem this morning. Last night I did a reboot of the receiver to try and correct the time problem on recording. After it booted up, I noticed that I had lost all my favorites and had to go back and add them it and this morning it would not turn on. Unplugged it and it rebooted ok.

Bunch of DBSTalk folks also resporting that boxes locked up, many needed a power cycle to get them back up and then channels missing and/or favorite lists wiped out. Stuart says that sources at D* say no software update was attempted, don't know what happened yet.
