Updated to new app version and can't get past the logo screen. App store comments are awash with others experiencing similar issues. Hope it's fixed soon.
Without knowing much about the technical aspects, it sure looks like DirecTV cheats on the frame rate of the SD stuff. The viewing experience is noticeably choppier especially during scenes with high activity. The HD selection should not even be considered on demand as it's not available for...
No, they're just temporarily unavailable and have been for at least several hours. First time I recall it happening in 5 or so years. Timing stinks though.
Anyone (like myself) who uses the iPad app as a remote will tell you that the issue resides in the box interpreting and/or acting upon the commands coming from the DirecTV remote (or other external remotes). Commands coming from the iPad app are executed immediately without lag so it doesn't...
I've 2 HR24's that have also been bogging down of late. My HR21 is better than it used to be but still worse than the HR24's. My H24 is a champ and is always responsive and lightning quick. Wish the same were true for the others.
1) See the progress bar on a dvr playback without pausing or rewinding. It boggles my mind why it doesn't show up when I hit INFO.
2) Disable the interactive (red button) feature on the channels where it's present? It seems to get in the way when using Pandora since red button also toggles...
Speaking as an actuary who has priced warranties and various insurance products, they are generally not a good value to a customer unless the potential loss would create a financial hardship. I find it comical how many people will significantly overpay for protection on a low cost low risk item...
I also found it interesting that the first was shipped out of Stockbridge, GA and the second out of Carlisle, PA. Yeah right, you get whatever the equipment folks happen to pull...
It happened to work out as I'm looking at a brand new HR-24 that came in the mail today as a replacement. I think DirecTV saying they can't control which equipment you receive is only lip service;)
My account was eligible for another free HDDVR so I took advantage of it. To my dismay, I received an HR-21 refurb (and it didn’t even come with the necessary DECA adapter). I decided to send it back and have another one shipped to me in hopes of getting an HR-24 but I am not too...
No you shouldn't be charged for an MRV install. I've only heard of that for an upgrade to SWM. The hr34 installer will just toss a couple decca's on the pre-24 receivers. Not exactly heavy lifting...
Eventually but only when a new version is pushed out. Has nothing to do with being connected to the net. I would suggest manually forcing an update by pressing 0-2-4-6-8 upon power up after a reset.
Funny you say that, I just added another HDDVR today. To my surprise, aside from the $6/mo fee and contract extension it was absolutely free. This comes pretty close after my move in Aug when I got a new HDDVR and MRV included.
