Sounds like it's on it's way out. I am on my 3rd 722...they all start with same issue....sluggish responses, and then freezes up and reboots. My last one wouldn't let me make any changes to priorities without rebooting. Crappy HDDs I would guess.

What a ridiculous topic, but what the hell....Doesn't the RCA VCR, even if it automatically FF thru commericals, still take longer to do that than hitting 30 sec skip 4 times?

BLASPHEMY I SAY!!! ;)

Well, if they can add it for the Super Bowl, why can't we get it all the time??(Fox and NBC are O&O here in Wash DC)

If you want to just burn an entire program and not have to deal with editing, then just buy a set top box and hook it up using s-video. Considering how cheap DVD media has become, you may not need/want to remove commericals. I have a VAIO Media Center 2004 PC, P4, 2.8ghz, 2GB RAM, 500GM HDD...

I am confused....i have an 811 but with no HD Pak anymore (Cancelled it a few weeks back). Does this mean i would still get it as i get Wash DC locals??

I have never had that happen to me. The only time i lose a signal is a few minutes before a HUGE storm hits (2-3 times a year) and only then it's only for a few minutes. Sounds like an installer problem.

I have a 508 and it does not scroll fast by any means. My 811 scrolls 3 x as fast but it doesn't have the extended program guide that the 5XX receivers have.

Is there any site you can provide which shows the specs for the adelphia boxes? Their website doesn't seem to show them? Also, they provided you with an HD DVR?

I have the pop up too but it says "Coming Soon". when you go to the (lease) receivers page, it shows 811 and 510

I have my 508 hooked up via optical but the only time i hear DD 5.1 is when watching a ppv movie (i don't have any movie channels), so really it's a waste 99.9% of the time.

I would bet it only goes to 510 and higher models as they already pay the $4.99 DVR service fee, which up until now, was for NOTHING!! I can see them coming to us 508/501 owners saying you can have NBR for $4.99/month.

Every week, i get an Adelphia flyer touting their DVR and HD offerings. In researching some other posts, i didn't see anyone all that happy with the picture quality of adelphia. Although, beinig able to get hd locals right off the bat is a big selling point. I would be interested to get your...

No...E* will tell you which movies to watch. Resistance is futile....

I was thinking the exact same thing this morning!

Hey, we all know about VOD...aren't we paying $4.98 a month for it?!?! But wait, if it's not available yet, then what the hell is the current VOD fee used for? ;)

I think you mean the 811 is not IR (in SAT mode)...only RF...

An IR blaster is a way for one external device (like a tivo box) to control/change channels of another IR device (like a standard dish network receiver). In this case, the IR blaster would be plugged into the tivo box and on the other end is a IR emitter which you would have to tape over the IR...

If you are leasing it, as long as you are paying the $5/mo or whatever the fee is, then you should not have to return it (so long as you are not violating any yearly committment you made). I think a lot of times, these CSRs think that the 811 won't work without the HD pak (as there have been...

You shouldn't have to (or should i say can't) switch between RF & IR on your 811. It works with either of them simultaneously. I use the 811 RF remote when i am downstairs with my 811 and also my media center IR remote upstairs in my ofice (with IR blaster). I think the problem you will run...

Your tivo does not have HD inputs (Like component video or DVI) so you cannot record in HD. You would be able to feed the downrezzed HD channels from your 811 to your tivo but it will not record in HD. I have my 811 hooked up to my Media Center PC and i regularly record HDNet on it, but...

They also called my wife a few weeks back. I found a sticky note on my desk which my wife had written "$549 for 921 HD DVR". When i found the sticky note, I ran to her to make sure she wasn't thinking of "Surprising" me with it for Xmas. I kept telling her "I am serious...i don't want it". She...

I am working on it....

If i sell my E* receivers on ebay, is it ok to post the R00 & S00 #'s? I am assuming someone can't do anything malicious besides verifying if there is a balance on them..

My Wash DC locals look like washed out pixelated crap too. I know it was not this bad when i signed up with E* back almost 10 years ago. And the bigger TV you have, the worse it looks. Ironically, my "seemingly" best picture is on my lowly tv in our master BR, but it's 13" and i sit about 10...
