Just delete the post in the other thread. We just want to keep it clean without any discussion. Thanks.

I tried deleting it ... don't have that option ... perhaps because there are already replies? Sorry ... here is my post:

So last night I turned my 722 "off" around 9PM. Abound 20 minutes later it gets really loud for a minute and then gets quiet again. I thought that was odd ... never did that before ... did some sort of update get pushed? Off to SatelliteGuys and sure enough they report that L618 got pushed to more receivers.

So, I turn the receiver on, and sure enough L618.

I immediate go to my recordings of The Beast in 1080p that I have downloaded prior and play episode 107 that I had downloaded using L617 ... sadly 1080i

So I delete episode 106 that I still had and download it again ... hmmm ... it is different this time ... I am usually always prompted to the effect ... your TV might not work with 1080p, so you might be downloaded a version that will work for your TV ... again, no such prompt this time ...

My 722 is set to do its normal reboot at 5:30AM ... at 7AM I check to see if my download had completed ... surprise, surprise ... it was done!

I go to my download and hit play ...

... drum roll ...

IT WORKED!

Another interesting thing I noticed ... I went to play episode 107 that I had downloaded using L617 as noted above ... it even played in 1080p! I am not sure why it did not work last night however when I tried it. The only thing that I can think of is that my 722 did its morning reboot thing ...

There were rumors that L618 fixed some 1080p issues ... I can confirm this.

The download ID, bootstraps and buildconfigs changed from the one back in Nov, that's probably why the program picked up. It's probably the same update.

I just got L618 2 days ago for my 722 and it looks like it has fixed my recordings of sat locals. I watched a show recorded 2 weeks ago that has been having audio and video problems. 2 shows that normally have the problem did not have any problem at all. i hope this new software really has fixed this problem. I will find out soon.
