Thank you for your response, I unplugged it for a few hours and got 3 hours of programming back. So, I am optimistic that the rest will come back. Thanx again. :up

Hi, for the last 2 days my program guide has To Be Announced on all channels. I pulled the access card, and unplugged and still no programming info is being loaded. All channels tune in okay, just don't know what's on. Any hints on how to restore the guide? Please and thank you. I have an...

I also have a couple of 305's (I think that's what they are)

Thanks ShadowEKU, as a matter of fact this is a replacement refurb box and the card needs to be matched up again... thank you for giving me a duh moment. :)

I have had my DTV Tivo R10 in a box for a while, during renovations. It isn't hooked up to a phone line, but, when I try to record a program from DTV, it says I first have to plug in and make a phone call. Who is this calling? and why do I have to call when I have DTV guide on screen to pick...

Doesn't anyone have any idea about what this means?:( Is it the hard drive? any crumbs would be helpful....

Thanx everyone for all the help. will get the whole dish changed.

Hi all, I just re-connected my R10 after a reno that lasted about 12 weeks and it says powering up and then just a blank light gray screen. I can't access anything, not even an acquiring signal message. Any thoughts before I have to call DTV for their help? you guys always seem to know how to...

Thanx Joe, I will do that. Didn't know that I could take the LNB off. We have a few really good installers around and I will call one of them up to take care of it for me. (very high roof) thanx again. cheers

I have a very old round DTV dish and want to add another receiver. How do I turn one into 2? Thanx all in advance for all the great help here.

I have the 505 and a viewsonic 2750 with DVI connected. one of the things most people were doing was, unplug both receiver and TV and then plug in the receiver first then TV and turn on 505 first then tv and scroll through your sources to DVI. I haven't had a problem ever, but, this seemed to...

I have the DSR505 and no problems in that area. only problems I get are the occasional audio drop out on HD channels.

they do at that. no probs here with a refurb. :)

you are right, i just leave mine set at 720 and it changes the screen according to the transmission. HD is in full widescreen on my LCD and SD gives me the bars on the side, as I don't like the stretch mode. It does this automatically.

there is a rumour that the 505's will be getting an updated firmware starting on the 7th. of course, it is still just a rumour, but, you can check in your system status to see if it is scheduled for an update. it will say target version: and then a firmware version number if it is to be...
