OK, if I've got 20 views and nobody's even seen the same problem, I think it's safe to say that this is a problem with my Marantz simply "losing touch" with the HR20 when it changes formats, and I suspect another AVR would not have this problem.

I know there is a long list of audio problems, but I haven't seen this specific problem. My HD-DVR is connected to my TV via HDMi and to my Marantz receiver via optical. I've had this setup since last August and it worked fine, throughout the HD channel upgrades etc. About a month (maybe...

I'm assuming it monitors the XMPCR application and pulls the tags from the window header.

I just got myself an XMDirect in hopes of TimeTraxing (of course that's not happening) I've been able to record with Total Recorder but not label and split the tracks accurately - what's your secret!??

Dear god, don't take it so hard. I can tell this is a touchy issue for you so I won't address the obvious picture quality difference I observe between OTA feeds from Los Angeles broadcasts and what I saw immediately upon switchign to DTV. I'll pretend I never noticed that because I don't want...

Is it just me or has the HD quality been dropping a bit on the networks over the past few months? Are they compressing more or something? I think I need to put my antenna up and compare the DTV feed to the OTAs. It's possible that my CRT RPTV got bumped out of calibration so nothing looks...

Quick question - I've got an HR10-250 as well and receive great OTA HD... I'm considering cutting my DTV subscription for awhile but I don't want to miss a couple of shows I can catch OTA. Does the OTA tuner still work if you're not an active subscriber? Do DVR functions work (I assume not).

I bought one there. Returned it after the superbowl. Horrible, horrible piece of equipment.

If I hadn't received my HD DVR for free, I'd be really pissed about this issue. Fortunately once I get off my lazy arse and re-mount my OTA on the roof (and tell the HOA where they can stick their bylaws) the DVR will be able to record all my favorites at their glorious full resolution (which...

It WILL be an improvement, if only because SD channels are so horribly compressed. Watching an HD feed even at half-resolution with your TV should still look a lot better. And you'll get much better audio quality along with 5.1 surround on some programs if you're using digital output to a...

I've got the HD Tivo receiver and I've had terminal audio sync problems with about 60% of Fox HD programming. No trouble with other channels. My OTA antenna is down at the moment so I can't compare. But it bugs the crap out of me. American Idol was so bad I honestly had to look away from the...

I honestly couldn't justify the price. But I got one for free. So I didn't turn it down. And having come from a Dish 921... I'd say if $800 is in your budget, and you like HD, it's worth it. I've adapted to Tivo. It's a way of life and has been for 2 years now. If I got a HD receiver...

:eek: What's going on? The sound is cutting out CONSTANTLY. I'm pretty sure it's not my equipment, my receiver shows a constant 5.1 signal, but it's dropping like every 5-10 seconds. I'm assuming that this is happening before it ever gets to DTV's satellites, but I don't know. Anyone else?

I like the unit quite a lot, over the past week or so. I have only two problems - 1) I switched from DirecTivo to Dish DVR. Losing NBR and the Tivo interface SUCKS. 2) The remote won't control volume through my Marantz receiver, which means I have to two-fist remotes at all times...

Yeah, that's the way I had my 501's UHF remote set up as well. Infuriates me that they apparently killed the relevant Marantz codes. :mad:
