    CE's for the Weekend of 8.15

    Yeah, but who's going to knowingly test something that breaks their dvr's sound without some marked improvement in another area or some awesome new feature? Not I.

    CE's for the Weekend of 8.15

    Looks like another release with broken audio (for genie). Is there any upside to these recent releases, or are we strictly beta testing these? I don't mind doing ce releases, but it kind of surprises me that d* would release something with such a glaring flaw...

    CE for 8/8 weekend !

    Bummer. I was hoping for some hr44 goodness, but it looks like I'll let it ride until next week. Football is too important B-)

    I see 06bd in the stream, I thought ce was 06d8?

    CE's for the Weekend of 5.16

    Ok that's cool...that I can deal with. I'm not new to the ce game (or Sat guys), just back after a few month hiatus. Thanks for the assurance.

    oxx62c,

    New NR, most likely.

    CE's for the Weekend of 11.16

    Totally. It looks to me like they're asking us edge-cutters to test 62c to be the next NR. I'm going to put it on my secondary hr24-500, and leave 64d on my hr24-200 and compare.

    CE's for the Weekend of 11.16

    62C is "lower" in hex than 64D, it's possible that this one is from a different development team or something, who knows. RedH is announcing 62C as new, so I'm thinking that's what it is this week. I'll roll the dice, that's what CE is about, yeah? The notes, upon further inspection, state that...

    Just added 2nd hr24 for free

    So, I had an online offer pop up to "upgrade to an hd-dvr for free." I already have an hr-24, so I was kinda confused so I called in, and the csr said "nope, we don't see that offer, but we can set you up with a genie for $299 or an hd-dvr for $199, or an hd receiver for $99 + $49 install."...

    CE's for the Weekend of 9.14

    Downloading it now, actually...HR24-200.

    CE's for the Weekend of 8.10

    This ce has been fine for me, very smooth. Based on the feedback in this thread, I straight-up skipped the ota channel setup entirely, because I don't have an am-21, and it looks like the commonality of problems may be related to that...just a thought. I have an hr24-200.

    Sunday Ticket cancellation adventure

    Not really. I think the etf for canceling with 12 months left is only $240 (someone correct me if I'm wrong). By "giving" me something that "costs" $199, they KNOW I will stay for at least the remainder of my contract. Even at the 37.99 I'm paying, it's twice the money they would have gotten if...

    Sunday Ticket cancellation adventure

    I used to work for primestar in their call center here, and some of the old tricks still work. A lot of it too is your tone when you talk to them. This might sound stupid, but act younger than you are. By and large, you're talking to 20-something kids, and it helps if you can relate in some way...

    Sunday Ticket cancellation adventure

    It's all who you talk to, I guess. CSR roulette works, and sOmetimes you get lucky on the first try.

    Sunday Ticket cancellation adventure

    Just got off the phone with D*, and it went a lil somethin like this: said "cancel" repeatedly until I got somebody. I just finished year 1 of my initial 2-year contract, got in last year with the free ST offer, etc. said I wanted to cancel ST due to cost, and also inquired as to why my bill...
