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

    No, sorry, wasn't clear. Not moving any physical hard drives. The process I was describing was where someone had documented copying all of their existing recordings from the internal to the external via a Linux OS connected to the two units, eliminating the need to reset back and forth between...

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

    The saga continues. Plugged the Xtreme back into my notebook, thinking I'd reformat it as NTFS and start the whole install process over. Downloaded Seagate's disk utility, and when it showed the Xtreme as being formatted in Linux native, changed plan. Next tested the Xtreme with my HR21-700 in...

    HR21 No HDMI Signal to TV

    In my case, it was the HDMI port. Took the suspect HR21 to the family room, no output via HDMI, while other HR21 at same software level works fine. D* phone support person was awesome and is sending me a replacement without having to arrange another service call.

    HR21 No HDMI Signal to TV

    Need to do a sanity check on a weird experience. Have had my HR21 for 4+ months connected to a Panny TH-42PX60U plasma via HDMI without issue. Last week, all of a sudden, no output. Switch to component cables, get output to TV. Also runnning HDMI from a PS3 to the Panny, no issue. Swapped...
