    Motorola fixes rehit and guide problems.

    Mine took 15 mins to load channel info, about an hour for program titles to appear in the schedule and about 2-3 hours for descriptions of programs to appear.

    Canonical list of 920/922 Secret Screens

    There is a PDF document titled "4DTV Generics". It is the most authoritative guide to the hidden menus and terms that I've found. It has pictures as well. It's at www.themusicworkshopchicago.com/4dtv/generic.pdf

    Final Conversion Instructions for all models at 4DTV Online

    Yes, if DMX channels 936 (vert) and 937 (horiz), have DCII lock while pointed at W5, then you have the correct X4. The tile should be beside the W5 tile and you should be able to see the song title and artist on the screen and here music. If you haven't activated/rehit your receiver from webSams...

    Final Conversion Instructions for all models at 4DTV Online

    !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SUCCESS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! When I looked at the revised (Jan 10, 2011) alternate procedure on Skyvision, the steps for my situation (channels equal to 4782, correct X4), the steps were the same steps I've done several time before. So before doing it again I just went to...

    My S/N (0428126063004969) is earlier but I still can't receive hits. I hope it also fixes my problem.

    Final Conversion Instructions for all models at 4DTV Online

    I just got off the phone with the programming center, and that's what he said (although he didn't actually try to disable my old package). He said they have verified several other cases like mine where the receiver has the correct channel maps and still won't take rehits. They gave Motorola one...

    Final Conversion Instructions for all models at 4DTV Online

    I just got a callback from Skyvision (they are working Saturday). The tech confirmed that I have the correct X4 and channel maps. He thinks my receiver won't accept hits because my old subscription package is still active in the receiver and I need the programming center to deactivate it. So it...

    People have used the terms soft reboot, power on/off and unplug/plug somewhat loosely such that its not always clear what they mean. Could someone clarify which is a soft boot. Also in the latest alternate procedure on SKYVISION.COM they say "hold the console power button for 3 seconds, then...

    In my case, the first time I saw it suggested that you might go ahead and program in X4 before the conversion was a few (3-5) days before Jan 4. When I went to program it in, the tile was already there next to W5 on the right side. Probably because I was still visiting G1 and W5. When I...

    Did you do the 7 step procedure or one of the alternates? Did it work first time? Did you have to do a password reset?

    I couldn't agree more. SRL has been very responsive, but in the end they refer you to SKYVISION for tech support and they are doing callbacks only. Their recording says it's a two hour waiting time but I've been waiting far longer than that (I'm sure their swamped). In the mean time I'm trying...

    I'm that guy. BUT I DON'T THINK IT'S DOING WHAT PEOPLE THINK IT IS!!! Going way out on a limb, I think it's just allowing the keys that are still in your reciever memory to work for a short time. IT'S NOT RE-WRITING YOUR RECEIVER'S MEMORY WITH NEW KEYS. The real test is can you activate/rehit...

    On a DSR-922 diagnostics screens are invoked by pressing OPTIONS 6-0-5 on the remote (I think its the same on a DSR-410). It comes up on Screen A and then you use the left and right arrow keys to move through the screens. If you don't know which fields are which, search for a PDF document titled...
