    Why are they doing a force update? Are the lockup because of the last software and they needed to release a new once? Is this because of the Directv2PC release?

    Very odd, and a very pain in the butt,
    They are interrupting my programing for an update I already have. I already had this as a CE/
    My System:
    Diish Network- 2 Dish 500's (110, 119, 61.5), ViP 612 & Vip 222

    Switched to Dish Network from Directv on 9/25/09 & Best Move I have ever made!

    Another new feature (or updated) is now the hr21-100 receiver now matches the hr21-700 signal strength readings. I think there was a problem where the 100
    receiver showed a lower signal strength as compared to a higher reading from the
    700 receiver. Now both models match a show a higher number reading...rolou21.

    I've been on 0x0290 for a while now, and I never had a freezing problem today, just an odd reboot in the middle of me rewinding to watch the weather (which I missed) on WTHI. So whatever seems to be the problem, hopefully this "force-update" will fix it for everyone.

    When my recordings stopped at 11 the receiver rebooted itself and is download the new software. I think I am going to put the R22 on my network and try out the Directv2pc software. I guess I will just get a cheap N router and use it as a access point. I really like what Directv has got going on.

    I had to restart my unit about 12 times before it was useable today around 5pm. The resolution was screwed. (only on an old 1080i projection)

    I thought it was toast.
    It finally took and seems a bit more responsive..

    Whats with the 1080p? Has anyone tried this?

    "Guide cache will be flushed .. guide & todo list will rebuild over next 24-48 hours"

    Can this be done with the receiver off, or does it have to be on the whole time?

    The receiver is never off, when you press the power button to 'turn it off' all it's really doing is shutting off the outputs, everything else is still running.

    I have two problems. My Toshiba 65HM167 won't display the 1080p and my caller ID won't show on screen. I don't care about the 1080p (I get all that I need via Blue Ray) but I do want my caller ID to show.
