    Onkyo receiver clicking noises and input change

    Ok, I can maybe see this happening when audio formats change but for 10 second rewinds after commercial skipping. My home made Windows Media Center DVR with my cablecard tuner did not have this problem and I really feel like the problem worsened with the HR44 update a couple of weeks ago.

    Onkyo receiver clicking noises and input change

    I tried that. It made no difference either way. I see my HR44 had a software update on May 7 which I believe is about when I began to notice the clicking. The input switch to TV when turned on has always happened.

    Onkyo receiver clicking noises and input change

    Two problems...1st I have had my HR44 a couple of months ago. I didn't notice this problem it first and it may have started with a recent update. When I use trick play or when commercials come on or the audio changes my Onkyo TX-NR809 'clicks'. The same noise you hear if you change inputs...

    install scheduled soon, what can I expect/ask for

    I ended up getting a Genie HR44-500 and mini Genie for a second TV. I also signed up for the protection plan when the installer was still on site. I have a problem maybe someone here can offer a suggestion for before I have to call the protection plan support back. After 36 hours I was...

    install scheduled soon, what can I expect/ask for

    Thanks for the help. What confused me was the HR44-700 'first look' on the other site that said it was the fastest DVR to date and it mentioned WIFI and newer remote where the HR44-500 first look I saw didn't.

    install scheduled soon, what can I expect/ask for

    From what I can tell the only difference between the HR44-500 AND 700 is the 700 has wireless and a newer style remote. Is this correct? thanks

    install scheduled soon, what can I expect/ask for

    I only have one TV. I made clear to the Best Buy DirecTv sales rep I intended to use the RVU in my TV (and one of the reasons I was choosing Samsung which I purchased on the same Best Buy trip). From what I get here I 'can not' simply cancel my second TV after it is installed and use RVU. The...

    install scheduled soon, what can I expect/ask for

    I just purchased a Samsung 75" 4k TV and it is scheduled for delivery Friday. I also ordered DirecTV from a DirecTV rep at my local best buy store on the same day. Installation is also scheduled for Friday. The TV has built in DirecTV RVU and will be my only TV. When I ordered I explained I...

    Is my hr24/h24 whole home DVR installedd properly?

    I don't feel like I have explained this setup very well because no one has agreed with me that the black power inserter is not needed. Here is a picture. Can my setup work without the black power adapter and only one of the two coax lines? The line coming through the wall is a double coax wire...

    Is my hr24/h24 whole home DVR installedd properly?

    A single cable from the main splitter to second splitter to feed the HR24 and DECA is how the installer who was here last week left it (along with the unterminated wire). I feel like replacing the 4 port splitter at the dish with a 2 port (thus eliminating the unterminated wire) would have...

    Is my hr24/h24 whole home DVR installedd properly?

    All, thanks for the help and great advice. I am less happy with DirecTV right now. What should I do? I had a 12 - 4 appointment today. Dispatch called and said the tech was running late. I asked if I could get a call when he was on his way so I could go back to work. I had also instructed my...

    Is my hr24/h24 whole home DVR installedd properly?

    I called DirecTV and told them about the reduced network performance error. I tried to explain why why I thought the wiring had been done wrong but I don't believe I was talking to anyone that understood. Without much hesitation they scheduled a service call for Tuesday.

    Is my hr24/h24 whole home DVR installedd properly?

    One of the wires coming from the 4 port splitter at the base of the dish that goes to the HR24 was cut off in the living room behind the HR24 and not used. Would this be an unterminated cable and the source of my signal loss?

    Is my hr24/h24 whole home DVR installedd properly?

    A four way splitter is at the base of my Dish on my roof. Should it be there exposed to the elements or should it be in the cable utility box on the back of my house. Are there any good diagrams or pictures I can look at? This is how I am thiking this should be now if it is done right. One...

    Is my hr24/h24 whole home DVR installedd properly?

    Inside behind the HR24 in my living room is a two way spliter, one wire goes to the HR24 the other to the DECA (with a green label as well. There is just the one spliter inside so no unused ports. Now let me describe what I see outside at the dish. The dish is not new. It was installed in Jan...

    Is my hr24/h24 whole home DVR installedd properly?

    First you are correct DirectTV on Demand is only on the HR24. My internet is Insight cable, it plugs into an older Belkin router 54G access point that has never given me any trouble. It is on the other side of my living room from the TV. My TV cabinet has a 10/100 switch that I plug my XBOX...

    How to increase your odds of getting HR24 or H24 receivers for your new install.

    My install was scheduled for last Saturday. When I ordered online I put in the installer commments, 'please send hr24/h24 receivers. The install was scheduled for 8am- noon. At 8:30am was called and told installer would be here between 10am and noon. At 11am was called and told installer running...

    AAA discount?

    That's great! I am disappointed I didn't figure all of that out. Did it all work? Did you also buy the HDTV online when you placed the order? What happened to your posts on the other site?
