    Is this a hardware problem?

    Not a bad idea. I'll give 'em a call to document what's going on. If bad things happen down the road, it should make it easier to get a fix.

    Is this a hardware problem?

    Reasonable question, but nope, nothing in my setup has changed. It has plenty of ventillation, hasn't moved, and we NEVER let the dog sleep on it :D

    Is this a hardware problem?

    I had an HR-20 that worked fine for about 3 years. About a month ago, the hard drive started clicking or chattering. It did this continuously on and off. Not just when we were recording or watching, but even with the unit turned off. It had never done it before, but I initially assumed it...

    Mountain West Confrence Network Question

    No real knowledge, but the guy on the BYU board who posted about this on Thursday is pretty well connected. He is usually accurate, and does not post until he has solid stuff. My guess is that they are very close. He predicted something official in the next 2 weeks, but they would hold off...

    Please HELP with Issues I have

    Is it possible that it is a multiswitch issue? I don't know why it would have a connection to time of day, but a bad switch can definitely give you the symptoms you described. When they installed my HD stuff a few weeks ago, they failed to replace the old switch with a wideband switch. I got...

    SD-DVR40 and 95W

    RE: will they take my TiVO I recently upgraded from an SD to an HD system. I previously had a TiVO SD DVR80. I wanted to keep a 2nd unit, and told the Sales Rep that I wanted to use my TiVO as my 2nd unit for an SD tv. He had no problem with it, and in fact said that he was going to...

    ?? regarding HD DVR audio output

    I just had an HR-20 installed. I have an HDMI connection to my TV, and the installer recommended that I use it. The thing is, I used to connect via optical from my old SD-TiVO to a sound system. I don't really want to use the TV's built in speakers. The TV does not have a digital/optical...

    Need to vent -- installation bungle

    I called a few days ago and got a decent deal on an HD-DVR, HD receiver, new antenna, and installation. Install was scheduled for today. I took the day off work. Then, at 9am I get a call that there are no HD-DVRs in the warehouse, so they won't be able to come. Great. So I take a day off...

    Help with DVR80 (SD)

    I have recently started having problems with an RCA DVR80, and would appreciate any advice/suggestions. 1) Almost since the beginning (2+ yrs) it gets a little hiccup every day or so. The system kind of pauses for a second or so, then continues fine. I assume that this is a bad spot on the...

    DirecTivo HR10-250 Blowout!

    Repost -- DTV gave me the deal and then took it back -- beware! When I first replied, the reply got stuck in the wrong place, not at the end of the thread. Thanks to the good folks on this forum, I called last Friday, and got the "deal". I have been a sub for about 20 months, have the...

    DirecTivo HR10-250 Blowout!

    DTV gave me the deal, then took it back -- beware! Thanks to the good folks on this forum, I called last Friday, and got the "deal". I have been a sub for about 20 months, have the $45/mo package, HD pack, and sports pack (no movie channels or NFL ST). It took two calls, but the rep gave the...
