No doubt Hancox!!!! Ditto that.

I read this in another forum. Not sure if it will help you, but it helped me when my remote seemed INCREDIBLY slow. Apparently it has something to do with clearing memory (not sure). Press MUTE + SELECT at the same time (wait for double blink) Enter 9, 6, 3 and then press CHANNEL DOWN (another...

I had to do that. I individually went to each episode and tried to record them. Some got onto the TO DO LIST, and some didn't. Some have an "R" next to them in the GUIDE, but are not on the TO DO LIST. Very strange. However, this Thursday and beyond should be fine because it is beyond...

As a follow-up, is there any way to "clear" the HISTORY out of the R-16? That might resolve my issue, but I don't see any way of clearing it....

I cancelled several daily series that I had set the R-16 to record (long story - I was trying to fix another issue). Any way, I attempted to re-set the DVR to record them again by recording the whole series, and it only seems to be set to record those episodes AFTER the ones I had cancelled...

Thanks! This is an awesome forum!:)

I have a dual-core processor with 2GB of ram. The card uses 512mb, not sure it that's an issue. My computer started freezing up when playing video that I had from my own HD camcorder! In the end, I uninstalled it and the drivers and I'm returning it to Dell. Unless there's something else...

The tech came out and replaced the LNB and checked everything over. It's been working for about 48 hours now, and he thinks it will be fine. He also updated the software on the R-16... I hope this is the end of it!

Installed the new GEforce 8400GS card and now DirecTV2PC works. However, I can't watch any HD video from my DVR. The video is very choppy and the computer freezes. I assume it's because my monitor isn't HD? The SD video works fine. Also, I notice my computer is a little slower with the new...

R-16 temperature is 104 degrees. Does that seem normal?

Just got some information from a tech friend about BIOS. Apparently pressing the F2 key before startup will get me into BIOS where I can disable the existing graphics card before installing the new one.

The internal temperature of what part? How?

I have a tech visit set up for tomorrow. I will have him examine everything. Funny thing is, it has worked fine for the last 24 hours. Isn't it always that way?? Could it be temperature related?? The weather just got warmer into the 50s these last 24 hours. I'm searching for anything at...

BIOS? How do you do that?:confused:

I have a HR22-100 HD DVR, standard DVR-16-300, and Standard D-12 500 in my 3 rooms. I've had NO issues with the HR22 or D-12. However, my DVR-16-300 has had satellite issues for 4 days straight. I just had the system installed 10 days ago. I have a slimline dish-5S with SWM. I have been...
