    Retention offers are worse.

    I got the same thing last fall, + NFL Sunday Ticket for free and they replaced my POS HR34 with a HR44. I have never asked before, have the Premium package, and was out of contract. I did have to agree to a one year contract.

    Season Record Issues

    My sports season recordings are intermittently stopping on my HR44 as well. Seems to be a common problem over on DBSTalk and the DirecTV forums. A reboot every two weeks keeps them going. Hopefully DirecTV fixes it soon.

    Slow HR34

    I had the same issues as the OP. I was on my second HR34 too. Called and got a service call (I have the PP). Tech came out Friday. I explained to him about the issues I was having with the 34. He didn't even check it. Said, "I brought you a new HR44." Then he proceeds to swap out my LNB, my...

    Pandora On HR44 - Songs End Abruptly?

    Mine does the same thing. If you hit pause and play it usually restarts. I finally gave up and use the Pandora on my Onkyo receiver or the TV.

    HR34 keep it?

    Thanks to all the responses. I decided to keep it and hooked it and two clients up yesterday. No issues with speed. The genie is smoking fast at scrolling through the guide, bringing up menus, etc. Even the clients change channels at normal speeds. Glad I kept it........

    HR34 keep it?

    Hi guys, it's been a while since I've posted on here, and I'm not as up to date on Directv equip. as I used to be. So....I thought I would ask you.

    Cable Coxial Conversion for AV to RCA, Component or HDMI?

    I have an am-21 for the exact reason you need one. Occasionally we get horrible weather. The am-21 allows me to watch and record local OTA channels when the satellite goes out. It integrates the channels into the guide so you can record them just like a normal satellite channel.

    Does the DECA network adapter require it's own power supply (H21/H22 boxes)?

    No, Deca modules do not require power. Only the internet connection kit and the SWim power supply.
