Oh your talking about the new Weather Channel interactive that Dish Network has come out with. I wish Directv would have something like that instead of the crappy active weather they have now but I don't think that will ever happen.
There is no way to get the R15 to stop recording the Directv showcases. This stuff is the various programs the Directv makes and sends to all the R15s and it has its own portion of Hard Drive space separate from the space the all the programs you record.

D* has added another SV Local to Mecklenburg Co., Va. They have added WRIC 8 in Richmond. I check the list on D*'s Website and it is not listed for my zip (23968) just the other two that I get (WDBJ and WSET from Roanoke) are listed but I am now seeing it on all my receivers.
I just seen over at DBS Talk that Moderator Earl Bonovich has posted that software version 10B8 has started to spool to the R15-500. Here is what he says the fixes are:
"- 30 Second SLIP
Hitting the Clockwise Advance button (forward) the unit will FF exactly 30s of recorded material. It...
I still have it now but they have added a copy of 255 mapped to my local channel so it is showing in the guide as two channel 47's one the local one and the other on the mapped version of channel 255.
