    Trick Play issue after leaving 3D channel

    I have a strange issue with trick play after I go back to a 2D channel from a 3D channel. Whenever I go back to a 2D channel, my TV turns off 3D mode like normal (there is a quick black screen flicker while it's doing so), and then I see another quick flicker of the screen (channel banner...

    Pause and switch channel

    If you pause the channel, you should be able to hit your down arrow twice (first time brings up the Double Play message, second time switches to the other tuner) and tune to any channel you want, and then hit the down arrow again to go back to your original paused channel. When you go back to...

    Directv dispute with Viacom IS OVER!

    Ahh yes, that makes sense. I misread the original statement at first as they had already paid for it as part of the new agreement and could add it at any time.

    Directv dispute with Viacom IS OVER!

    Ohh that Scott.. he's always cooking up something good ;) And.. does that mean that we should expect to see Epix popping up sometime in the near future as they are paying for it anyway? Dan

    Directv dispute with Viacom IS OVER!

    DirecTV has confirmed that Epix is the holdup in this whole situation. DIRECTV Viacom Updates "Viacom’s current statement on our negotiations is completely inaccurate. They made a proposal last night for our carriage of the 17 channels they pulled from DIRECTV and we accepted all material...

    DirecTV has turned Encore on for everyone it appears.

    I would hate to be a CSR right about now, I know that much.

    Directv dispute with Viacom IS OVER!

    I think Iceberg had them all. There definitely aren't 26 on DirecTV. The only one I think Iceberg missed was MTV t3es, so 16 total.

    Directv dispute with Viacom IS OVER!

    It certainly did seem to come out of the blue. TV Land has the Viacom crawl plus the DirecTV crawl running at the same time now. The DirecTV crawl stating "It's unlikely but Viacom could suspend this channel on July 11. Please see DIRECTVpromise.com. Viacom, who owns this channels, wants you to...

    Programming/Recording/Playback Issue (R22-100)

    I have a spare R22-100 and it does the same exact thing with trying to force a download. It will say Searching for New Software (04D1) and the numbers will increase for about 15 minutes and then it will reboot. If you try it again, it will do the same thing. Any other receiver model seems to...

    Special CE Wednesday Night Only

    This CE seems to have fixed the direct channel entry lag issue that re-appeared for me after last weekend's CE. Always a plus. I had forgotten how annoying that was. Dan

    PPV Commercials Cutting Into Programming

    I just got around to watching some of my TLC recordings from this week and it's definitely still happening. On the 6/7 - 9:30pm recording of "On the Fly" during the 2nd commercial break of the show, the last two commercials were a DirecTV Movers Connection commercial followed by a DirecTV Cinema...

    PPV Commercials Cutting Into Programming

    It's funny because the PPV commercials never bother me. I understand that DirecTV needs to advertise events to make money. It's the nature of the business. All providers run PPV commercials. Most of the stuff I watch is DVR'd anyway, so I never have a problem just skipping right past the...

    PPV Commercials Cutting Into Programming

    This is a strange issue that I have been noticing off and on for the better part of two years now on TLC. It usually happens on a show airing during the 2nd half of the hour (x:30-x:00) and when it happens, is seems to always be the next to the last commercial break in that half hour (the one at...

    CE's for the Weekend of 6/1/12

    "Press play to play all of the shows in this group in order" has been there for a long time. Here is a picture of the playlist on the blue GUI I found on the DirecTV forums from a post dated May 2011: http://forums.directv.com/pe/RepositoryFileDownloadServlet/10877178/Playlist.jpg Dan

    CE's for the Weekend of 6/1/12

    Yeah, very nice to see the box outputting 1080i again when I first turn my TV on. Box seems fairly snappy here as well. It did freeze on me for about a minute when I tried to change channels after first booting back up but I'm just going to blame that on me not having patience and trying too...

    H2x / HR2x CE Release 5/25

    Yes, it has been happening to me as well for the past few CE's on my R22-100 (HD enabled). I have a 40" Sony Bravia KDL-40EX500 so it's not just a Samsung thing. My receiver is straight HDMI to my TV. Then I have digital optical audio out to my home theater receiver. Every time I turn my TV on...

    CE's for the Weekend of 5.18

    I've noticed mine doing that too as of late. I just couldn't remember when it started. Last week's CE is the first one that I've had a chance to download in a while so I guess that's when it started for me. I've tried different configurations of Native On/Off, setting the receiver to only output...

    CE's for the Weekend of 2.10

    I wasn't necessarily trying to turn it off. I just didn't expect it to stay when I reverted back to NR. I thought it would kind of disable itself and then I would have to re-enter IAMANEDGECUTTER after I downloaded the next CE.

    CE's for the Weekend of 2.10

    I also had to revert to NR this week as the red guide issue was driving me absolutely crazy. Just wanted to ask if it was normal for the Misc. Options menu to stay when you revert back to national? I still have it in my Settings. Wasn't sure if there was a way to turn it off or not. Dan

    CE's for the Weekend of 2.10

    A lot of times I'll be watching something, and then I'll hit the guide button and enter a channel number right away as I'll want to check to see what time the hockey game is on or something of the like without changing the channel. So today, for example, the Penguins game is on at 2pm and I'm...

    CE's for the Weekend of 2.10

    On the initial screen that came up where you enter the name it said it was authorized, but after I entered the name and checked the Status menu in Whole-Home settings, it says Not Authorized.

    CE's for the Weekend of 2.10

    Okay, I found a way that I am able to reproduce the red guide every time. When I hit the guide button, and enter a channel number right away (either as the guide is coming up or right after it does), it turns red. If I open the guide, wait for a couple of seconds, and then enter a channel...

    CE's for the Weekend of 2.10

    I was just scrolling through the guide when it happened. I have been trying to reproduce it but can't. I'm also getting quite a bit of lag this morning. Last night right after 05B3 installed my box was as fast as ever. Guide was scrolling quickly, could direct enter channel numbers with no lag...

    CE's for the Weekend of 2.10

    Anyone else happen to see this yet? The red will flicker as you scroll, then show up solid again when you stop.
