I didn't see it on the list but Fox Soccer Channel is in "Xtra" and above now.

I don't know if D* is the same way as E* on this issue or not. With E* if you had an issue they'd willing sign you up for the protection plan in order for you to get reduced/waived shipping/repair costs. Of course, people would cancel the protection plan ASAP once they got their equipment issue...

After four days, everything seems OK.

When I logged on yesterday evening a bunch of stuff was getting cut off on the right side of the screen on my laptop. Mainly, it was the breakdown of the $$$ information.

I'm a new Genie and clients user too! Do you have the "web videos" disabled in the settings? I noticed that our HR34 had "web videos" disabled by default.

Last night I deleted the duplicate recordings. Then I reset the "menu" and the "rebooted" the HR34. Today I set up a new timer and so far, so good.

Answers above in bold red.

I agree the 722 and even my old 522s were pretty solid in that regard. I had some other issues but it wasn't related to recordings.

I'm way too new of a D* subscriber to even consider the CE releases. My duplicates are recording on "series" events, set to "first run". If I set up a recording in advanced for a show or event, it doesn't appear to be duplicating the recording.

Thanks everyone! I'm going to work on the nice letter today.

Yes, it's for first run only. The thing is that the duplicate recordings are for the same show at the same time. So if the "first run" show is scheduled to record Monday at 9:00-10:00, it is recording it twice! I double checked the series options. It is not set up twice according to what I'm...

On Friday I set up our new HR34 to do a bunch of Series Recordings. I noticed on a show recording tonight that it recorded twice. Then I checked the "To Do List" and pretty much all of the upcoming NEW episodes are scheduled to be recorded twice. The funny thing is when I checked the "To Do...

^ Yea, seems to be par for the course for being cut off at the knees. They only want to keep you once you are actually gone. I've gotten two more offers from Dish since cancelling last night. I guess in a way that it makes sense. I assume most people who call and threaten, etc. are bluffing...

I lost some sleep last night and my worries over the installer were for not. We ended up with a great installer from Mastec! The first thing he did was check the locations where the boxes were going inside. After that, he brought up the issues with having 4 C31's and only being able to use 3...

I've never had Comcast but I can see what you are saying now that I have the Genie and the clients. I would consider it a tad sluggish more than I'd like but not it's not a deal breaker for me either. My family thinks it's great! :) Our 722's had definitely gotten to the point where they were a...
