HR34 glitches...these happen to you too?

Just want to verify if someone seen these minor "glitches" show up on the HR34

1. You can't get into the VOD unless you use the guide. You cant hit 1337 and get VH1 classic VOD. You have to use the guide
2. If you go to 1000 you can't go off of that (using the red and green button)
3. If you remove a episode of a series recording it shows back up (from my other thread)
4. I had to do a reboot today (froze completely) and now all my series recordings show twice for this week only. So any series recording shows up twice but "one time" recordings dont
5. When you click on manage series the number of episodes to record is whacked. As example tonight I have Raw, 2 Broke Girls, and 2 episodes of Pawn Stars (as example...I have more) and they all show in the recording list. But when I go under series it shows as example
  • 1. 2 Broke Girls (0)
    2. WWE Monday Night Raw (0)
    3. Pawn Stars (0)

some shows say (1) later this week but there are 4 new episodes to record in the next 2 weeks. But some are right and show say (3) and there are 3 shows set to record the next 2 weeks.

I assume some minor glitches?

Well, DirecTV seem to have made one big mistake. Developing two firmware at almost the same time - the SD & HD. Instead of being the last receiver to go HD, it should have been the first.

Seeing this was the most recent recvr offering and it's type of set up was not even thought of at the time that the other recvrs were being made, that would be hard to do.

Granted the H<MC has been talked about for a long time now, bringing this one out before the others would have been a BAD thing.

Personally, I think the HR34 came out about 6 months too early, with all the bugs being worked on.

If it is up and working 6-12 months from now, I may consider one, but as of now, the HR24's are working GREAT for me.

It is. even though in the guide you can see the R symbol when a series is scheduled to record,it never did and the series was completely canceled. Nothing in the to do list either.

This is the bad thing about being an early adapter for any product. It can be frustrating being a beta tester of what is "supposed" to be a final product. But, I enjoy trying out new toys myself, especially satellite receivers. It has fewer warts than the Vip 922 did when it came out, I can say that much for it, of course, that is based on my experience when comparing the two.

They admitted it a few weeks ago, at least I was informed weeks ago about from Directv. It's not just 34's though. 25's have more issues then the 34 when it comes to MRV.

Song Name Game Part 3!

Sometimes a thread gets so many posts in it that is can cause issues for the server so that why today we introduce The Song Name Game Part 3!

So let the game continue!

The last song was added by Bobby who posted...

One Meat Ball - Andrews Sisters

CONTINUE ON AND HAVE FUN! WELCOME HOME TO SATELLITEGUYS.US!

Here are the original rules for the game as posted by WebbyDude back in 2006. http://www.satelliteguys.us/threads/68645-Song-Name-Game

Just name a song title and the band who performed it. The next person does the same thing, but needs to list a song title or band name which includes a word from the previous entry. Pick songs from any genre.

Example:

Long Live Rock and Roll -- Rainbow

Rainbow in the Dark -- Dio

Another example:

Ride the Lightning -- Metallica

Lightning Strikes -- Ozzy Osbourne


Get it?


An additional note: we all know that song titles, sometimes, use profane words. Because this is a family friendly website it is advised that you clean up that title up a bit. This is accomplished by using something like sh!t instead of the real word. Thanks....

Star Trek: Starfleet Academy - Paramount+

Season 2 order already in hand:

'Star Trek: Starfleet Academy' Renewed for Season 2, Tatiana Maslany to Guest Star in Season 1

I've not been optimistic about this show based on what I've read so far. Seems to be aimed at a younger audience. Interesting though that Tatiana Maslany will have some sort of role.

Yeah, the foot stuff was just nasty. I kept thinking of how dirty her feet would get traipsing around shoe-less. Funny, I love being shoe less at home and never wear shoes indoors in my home for long, but seeing her laying on all her furniture with her bare feet hanging out just kind of grossed me out.

There would still be dirt ,dust in the future I am sure. So walking around the station like she did she would get stuff on her feet. I am sure the robot vacuum is still going to miss stuff, with all those different alien species running around there.

Why do you think cleaning technology won't improve in the next few hundred years? HEPA filtration was invented as part of the Manhattan Project.

I don't know, but I still don't like her walking through the station or the academy with out her shoes. It looks unprofessional and very "hippy like" for someone of her status and I personally don't get off to feet, so there is that. ;)

Stargate SG-1 cancelled, Atlantis renewed
clear.gif

Monday - August 21, 2006 | by Darren Sumner
clear.gif

The future of Stargate is in question today, as SCI FI Channel has cancelled the long-running Stargate SG-1, Multichannel News reported today and a GateWorld source has confirmed. The news regrettably follows the airing of the show's milestone two-hundredth episode on Friday.

Stargate Atlantis, meanwhile, has been renewed for a fourth season, with the network hoping to see that the spin-off series can stand alone, according to a source.

I think they were more of a transitional receiver bridging the VIPs to the Hopper. They were a PITA to install and were buggy. Personally, I thought at the time that they were the best receiver out there. The versatility of the VIP's with the new Hopper GUI and, by far, the coolest-looking front plate and lighting.

I don't recall that they came out just before hopper, but rather that they came out even before 722. Or could be thinking of 921.

As to the title pf the post, "rare" does not necessarily mean valuable or desirable.
