Direct not offering RZ as a standalone channel will almost certainly send me back to Dish next August when my contract is up.

I have every resolution checked. Native Off. The light stays at 1080i no matter what channel I'm on, SD or HD. I realize it's a 480i picture when I'm on an SD channel, but it does not change away from 1080i + Original format. Perhaps the OP is accidentally pressing the format button on the...

Sure, but it shouldn't stay at 480i when you switch back to an hd channel which is what I assumed is happening.

I don't think this is true at all. All of the resolutions are checked on my HR34 and it does not change to 480i by itself.

Thanks. Tonight's episode was not set to record, but the 10/21 episode is.

Apparently, mediashare will play mp2 video through windows media player or other types of files through an on-the-fly transcoder. For videos, there are a dozen ways to do it better and I wouldn't bother. It's ok for my music collection but very, very slow browsing the files.

My HR34's guide, menus, playlist, the entire GUI really, has gone from the dark grey/blue to a bright white with grey fonts. Some stuff is recording so I haven't done a reset yet, but just seeing if anyone else has experienced this glitch. Anyone?

After some further research, MediaShare can only play videos in an MPEG-2 container and probably some other requirements as well. I could not get it to work at all, but at least one person has a tutorial on how to get it playing videos through ushare though it requires some heavy editing to the...

HR34 - The splash screen for MediaShare says it's for Music, Photos and Video, but so far I can't find a compatible video file that will play. It tried to play a .mkv file, but the screen went black. It plays music from the computer just fine. Just wondering if there are future plans to allow...

Hook a computer to your tv and use torrents.

I connected it directly to the router and a connection was established. It said to wait 24 hours for On Demand content. One of the H25's gave a message that it was no longer connected to the HR34 and whole home dvr wouldn't work... but it seems to be working fine. Shows are still available in...

Directly or with the connection kit?

I have two H25's in the bedrooms. The router is right next to the HR34, but I read you shouldn't hook it up directly if you are using the whole home dvr. Upon further reading, another person stated it could be connected directly if you use a band stop filter. Pretty confused, here. He seemed...

He said it's causing problems and refused to do it. He told me to wait a couple of months (for updates) before getting the kit and hooking it up. Anyone know anything about this?

Mine is coming Thursday with two H25's or 24's, whichever they bring I guess
