After you install the eSATA drive, if you want to access the recordings on the internal drive, you can unplug the receiver, unplug the eSATA cable for the external drive, plug in the receiver and let it reboot. You can then see your recordings on the internal drive. This is kind of a pain if...

Both of My HR20's just finished rebooting, it seems to have fixed the problem. The new software version is 0x3df

I am experiencing the same thing, I got 3 reboots during the night, the last at about 7:00 am EDT. How do you get back to the national release? I searched but found nothing to tell me how to do that. Is there a FAQ someplace that explains common procedures like this. I've never had to do it...

Looks very stable, everything I've tried is very responsive (HR20-100). I have my home phone forwarded to my cell so I don't know about caller ID.

I am running the national release and I just installed 4902 after an uninstall of the Beta on the cyberlink site and I got no video but could hear the audio. I then uninstalled 4902 and re-installed the released beta and the video was back. I'm running Vista and my HR-20-100 is on the network...

This is exactly what happened when I downloaded ... It got to 95% and rebooted, my version still says 02AF, so I assume that means that it didn't install the download. I was suspicious that it didn't install so I restarted and downloaded again and the same thing happened 95% ..reboot. Version...

OK, that worked. The problem was I was trying to set AV1 to RF and it wouldn't take. I switched the H20 from AV1/AV2 to DirecTV, then switched to RF, did the thing on the remote and it worked. But it doesn't work very well, it is very sluggish in RF in the DirecTV position, although it works...

If you read my original post you would see that my goal was to control the 2 DVR's with my slingbox, which I am now able to do with DVR #1 set to 00001 (controlled by the DirecTV position on the remote) and with DVR #2 set to 00002 (controlled by the AV1 position on the remote). Previous to...

I couldn't get RF to work. I think I have the right Remote -- RC64R is supposed to be RF, I went through the setup on the box and on the remote and the box didn't respond after I put in the code the way it told me. So I reverted to IR. So I guess I'm left with covering up the front of the...

Wouldn't that mean the DirecTV spot would control? I already have my 1st HR20 DVR on the DirecTV switch, my 2nd DVR HR20 on the AV1 switch with code 00002 and I want the H20 on the AV2 switch hopefully with code 00003 or at least something different than 00002. I couldn't find anywhere that I...

Thanks for this info, I successfully changed the code to 00002 and can now control my seconds HR20 on my slingbox. But now I have a problem, I have 2 HR20's and an H20 in the same room, I was able to control all 3 by setting the AV1 to 00003 for the 2nd HR20 and AV2 to 00002 for the H20. Now...

Mine is on the house, so I don't know.

Hi, I'm getting the 5 LNB dish installed today to replace my 3 LNB dish so I can get HD Locals (Boston). This is my first foray into the HD world! I was wondering how many coax lines need to be run from the dish into the house. I have a DirecTivo (need two lines), and a regular receiver (1...
