    Did something chnage that makes the DSR 500 obsolete? If so, when did the change occur? I wonder how the hell I am going to get it shipped to the US? Any ideas? I bought the original from Kusat.

    Motorola DSR 500 Remote problem

    Tried that, left the batteries out for a week, still no go. You try and push the buttons as quickly as possible and half the time it is like you pressed a button twice. It applies to the numbers as well as the +channel- button....

    Motorola DSR 500 Remote problem

    The remote for my DSR 500 has never worked right. When I press the up and down channel buttons, it skips down as if I hit the button twice. Many of the other buttons act that way as well. I do have one of the older (black) UHF remotes and while it doesn't skip, it is really slow. I really...

    CBC HNIC picture quality - *C

    Uh oh..... Iceberg, I just checked 302, ECB/NO 8.6 (bounces between 8.5 and 8.7). Checked 281, ECBNO 10.8. Checked 465, ECBNO 8.8. I have a DSR500, went to 6-4-3 (I think, tune receiver) and on 281 there is constant tone, on 302 and 465, it beeps.... Think I need to re-align??? :(...

    video/audio out of sync

    I was watching TV tonight and found the video and audio to be WAY out of sync. I have a StarChoice DSR 500 and a Samsung DLP HLR5067W contacted with component cables. Any ideas? Also, my home theatre system is WAY off as well, it is like watching a dubbed movie. Any ideas? Thanks...

    subscription question

    They do not need a phone number, tell them you either don't have one or use cell only. You will need to limit yourself to 1 or 2 receivers at the very most however.

    Starchoice DSR505HD

    OK, so it has been less than a month since I bought my Starchoice DSR500HD and now they have replaced it with a DSR505HD, it appears the difference is DMI output and MPEG-4 capability along with a "better" guide.... Dang! Also, anyone have issues with the "+ channel -" key on the DSR500...

    Starchoice DSR500 remote UHF

    I thought.... I thought I cam across the remote config somewhere when setting everything up, but couldn't find it again. It makes me think there is some setting that can switch between IR and UHF...... ???

    Starchoice DSR500 remote UHF

    My DSR 500 remote doesn't work very well. Does anyone know if/how I turn on the UHF function? I would have guessed it was on by default, but it appears to be only using IR... Thanks in advance.

    Starchoice address verification

    Does Starchoice verify your Canadian address? I really would like to manage my own account and would like to avoid a broker, am I being to cheap? I know that they will bill my credit card directly, so do they even check the Canadian address?
