I grabbed the new CE at 8:00 pm PST Friday night and had DD working by 8:30.

Is this in a HR21 reciever? The latest national software upgrade killed DD over coax or optical for a lot of people, especially those with Yamaha receivers. It is a known problem now. The workaround for the time being is to turn off Dolby Digital in the HR21. Whenever you change channels, pause...

My HR21 got this last night and now I have no audio at all going to my Yamaha receiver over digital coax connection. I changed to optical digital and no change. I turned off DD in the HR21 and again no change. Playing my DVD player through the same input with the same cable works fine so I can't...

OK, I solved my internet problem. I had the ethernet cable in the upper port and it didn't work. I had my wireless access point plugged into the lower port for a pass-through. When my laptop would not connect to my router I reversed the cables so that the wall/router connection is now in the...

It successfully connects to my network, just doesn't connect to the internet.

Any idea when the next national release should occur?

My house is already wired for ethernet which is much easier to configure and set up. It makes much more sense and is cheaper to just plug the HR21 into the wall with an ethernet cable than trying to get a bridge or adapter working.

Yes, it did get an IP when set to auto. The HR21 reports that it is connected to my home network. It just won't connect to D* over the internet. Maybe it's just that the current national software has it disabled? It has failed the internet connection test many times on several different days.

I have my HR21 connected to my home network with a wired connection directly to my router (Dlink DI-624). The router sees the HR21 and the HR21 connects to my network but continues to fail when connecting to the internet. I have assigned an IP address to the HR21 in the router but no change. Any...

I have had the same sync problems with Discovery HD since I got it one year ago. I've changed the my HR10-250 due to an HDMI failure and it is still a problem. It doesn't matter if I use my TV speakers using HDMI or component/analog audio or go through my receiver. Sometimes they are almost a...

I got mine 2 or 3 weeks ago. It was about 4 weeks after I mailed it. Chris

I believe my HR10-250 just lost the HDMI port. It's only 3 months old. I turned on the TV and the screen color was all wrong. The resolution seemed worse and the colors seemed inverted, mostly gray. I have switched to component which works fine. If I wiggle the HDMI cable, it will work for a...

I would like to use one of my old Sony receivers at my grandparent's vacation home as a second receiver which would be added to their account. Currently the house has a Hughes receiver and single LNB 18" dish. I upgraded my home system to HD and now have an extra dual LNB 18" dish from the sony...

I now have all four networks as well. ABC was activated this morning. Chris

I got the waiver today and already faxed it to D*. We'll see who gets activated first. Chris

I called Jeff at KRCR yesterday and faxed the information he wanted. He said he would give me a waiver. I should get it today (I hope). Chris

This whole waiver thing is crazy. I don't think anybody knows what is going on. I got a card from D* today saying that all my waivers had been denied. I currently have waivers in place for CBS, Fox, and NBC which I requested personally, received directly from the stations, and submitted. My HD...

How is it going with the ABC waiver? Chris

That would be great. The guy I talked to said they were declining waivers at that time. Lately I haven't been able to get KRCR HD reliably. More often than not I can't get anything yet I can get PBS 100% now. Chris

I think it would depend on whether your local stations will grant waivers for HD. I called my local stations directly and got 3 of 4 networks but in some areas D* can also submit the waiver requests. It doesn't hurt to call and I wouldn't necessarily take D*'s word for it either. Request waivers...

Wiggin78, That's great. I did have to fax the waivers at least twice. The CSR's say it takes 3 business days. I just refaxed my letter and waivers every 4th day. It took 7-10 days for each to get activated. You're right about the Kings, I'm not looking too far into the playoffs this year. We...

Fox HD was activated today after I sent the waiver. KRCR actually called me to decline the ABC waiver. If I get my antenna placed correctly I think I could get ABC-HD more reliably. He was very surprised I could get it at all. He said they are broadcasting at about 1000 watts (1 Kw). He was even...

My Fox waiver was in the mail yesterday. I've faxed it in to DirecTV. I've contaced KRCR (ABC) to see if they will give me a waiver. I'm glad this is working out. Chris

It worked!! CBS and NBC HD were activated today, west feeds only. I'm still waiting for Fox to give me a waiver. Chris

I just got off the phone with the HD department (thanks for the number). They do not have record of receiving my fax (I've done it twice). I confirmed the number with him and sent it again. He said it should take no more than 3 business days. I've heard that before. He did say that he was...
