    HR2x / HR34 External Hard Drive FYI/Support (eSATA)

    Esata Connector on HR20 I bought a 500GB WD drive. When I went to plug it into the receiver it would not fit. I pushed a little bit and the entire esata connector fell off into the box! Do you need a special cable or will any Esata cable work?

    Mitsubishi HDTV

    Got it fixed Thanks for all your suggestions. Trying to help the installer is sometimes a bad thing. I had the component cables going into the two inputs which were for 480i and not the 1080. Things look much better now. Jeff

    Constant rebooting

    522 Guide Data Question

    I was trying to create some event timers for my local channels here in Sacramento. While browsing the guide it only shows what is on our locals one hour foward. This makes it nearly impossible to create event timers since I can't even tell what is on.. Any ideas??
