    External Drive for HR20-100

    The largest HDD is 2TB, the HRs will not support a larger HDD. I've got WD Green Caviar 2TB HDDs on/in ten HRs. They all work well, but the EVDS and EURS are both built specifically for DVR use. If you choose to believe WD. The WD Black Caviar drives will also work on the HRs, but are more...

    HELP - Recordings Come Out Black with 0:00 Time Recorded

    At first pass, from his opening post, I thought he might be using an Ethernet version of MRV. I had that before I switched to DECA and SWMs. Rich

    HELP - Recordings Come Out Black with 0:00 Time Recorded

    That was my thought too, sounded like those addresses were wrong. I'm used to the 192.168 IP addresses that come from the routers. What you get from a cable modem are numbers in the 200s. Rich

    Older TIVO units having to reset?

    Now I'm really confused. As far as I know none of D*'s HR series of DVRs uses a TiVo operating system. The HRs started off with the HR20-700 and the last model introduced is the HR24-100. Which model number are you talking about? Rich

    HELP - Recordings Come Out Black with 0:00 Time Recorded

    This never happens when you use the DVRs to record a program? You say your DVRs have a static IP address entered. You didn't use the same static IP address for both of them did you? Rich

    Force a guide update

    You have to reboot the HR twice within a half hour to flush the guide data and have new data downloaded. Works well for sluggish HRs of all models. Rich

    Recording playback freezes

    Sounds like it might be an internal drive going bad. You might want to try an external HDD on the 22. That will tell you quickly if the internal drive is shot. If you hook an external drive and don't see the problems you're seeing on the internal drive of the 22, your internal drive is shot...
