    Software Release Notes: HR20 / HR21 / HR22 / R22 Verison 0x029B

    It's been noted elsewhere that the update notes are identical to the previous release. Hopefully it's to fix bugs like the tearing at the bottom of the screen when watching a 1080/24 movie.

    Fox News hd May 1st??

    With this administration you'd be in pig heaven if it was state run. Of course with this administration it would be off the air most of the time due to a lack of qualified technicians.

    Fox News hd May 1st??

    Yes, I agree. Lies and slander in Hi-Def is sooo much better! Is it too late to shoot down the satellite? Or start broadcasting PBS in Hi-Def.

    Now that The News Hour with Jim Lehrer is in HD when will we get the HD version on LA's KCET? Watched it last night and it is letter boxed but obviously not HD.

    So I just ordered the DirecTV HD DVR

    If by "TiVo DTV" you mean DirecTv TiVo then yes no problem. They won't want the old one back. If you had a HR-10 TiVo HD recorder and you were upgrading for free then they would say they want it. I had one and kept it without having to pay the $199 but I think that was because of a...

    Here's another website that lists launches: http://www.orbireport.com/Log.html No love here either. You need to follow the links to "schedule" and then 2007. That's what I thought I copied but when I clicked on the link after I posted it it took me to 2006 history.

    HR20 problems with 4:3 TV

    Well, I have the same TV but with an HR10-250. With this receiver you select what output resolutions you want with the options being 480i, 480p, 720p and 1080i. I select all but the 720p and then when you turn to a HD channel you hit the up arrow to select 1080i otherwise it stays in whatever...

    Two TVs on One Dish? Help!

    I agree. A splitter doesn't work. You need to run a line from each of the 2 receivers to the dish. Assuming you have the three lnb dish you can drive 4 receivers by running lines from each reveiver directly to the dish. If more than 4 receivers you need a matrix switch located in a central...

    D* Customer Morale This is a good topic. I spend time reading D* and Apple Computer forums and man is there a difference in the enthusiasm! While Apple often misses their deadlines the people know that at the end of the day they're going to get a killer product. Not so with D*. I think we need...

    HR10-250 Restarts

    Well, figuring out how to do it was easy but the execution wasn't what I expected. I pushed the button and it gave me a message that it was completely erasing and clearing all data and that the process would take an hour. An hour? How could it take that long? Two and a half hours later it...
