And BTW, between having to pay the $14.99 for ESPN Classics, the price increase for the Sunday Ticket and the elimination of Versus I have decided to go with AT&T Uverse. They may be the sports leader, but it comes at a very high price.

I don't have an issue with packages, but I think there should be some sort of combination. Example: I have the Choice Xtra Plus but want to watch ESPN Classic, that means I have to pay $14.99 for one channel since don't care about the other channels. Give me the option to purchase ESPN Classic...

Hi Guys, I just got D* installed today after being with E* for about four years. I got an HR21-100 and it seems to randomly blank out. What happens is the power light stays on, the record light blinks, and the circle spins. I does this for about 15 to 30 minutes and then comes back on. I...

Kelton, Did you try the factory defalts suggested by hdaddikt. So far it's worked for me. Not sure how long it will last but so far so good. Bert

My box was so new I hadn't set up any timers or favorites so I couldn't tell you. Sorry.

hdaddikt, For some reason that seemed to work, at least for now. Maybe they should hire you for Tech Support.

Nobody?
