The Energy star mention scares me. I hope they're not going to make the fans run less, and get the hard drives hotter.
 
I'll do it. Running the national release now so if it isn't stable, can just revert.

Hope no problems!

i wonder if its worth it since very high risk :confused::)


Why would you say that ?

If your a tester, you test ...
Use the software and if you have issues report it .... if it runs great, report it here as well.

Just because it's High Risk, doesn't mean it's bad, just means it's New, theres a High Risk warning everytime theres New software cycle coming out.

true :)
 
im debating on my hr 24 hd dvr and hd receiver i may just try it on my hr 24 hd receiver in my bedroom to see how it goes and if it works do it on the main room if it dont work then i wont do it in main room...lets all hope it works good :)
 
My HR22 was the "free" HD DVR I got when I first signed up to D*. Since I payed out of pocket for my other 'leased" receivers,it seems the easy choice is to "sacrifice" the HR22 on the "altar of CE technology."
 
I always try the R22 in the computer room....if it screws up no worries (I use it as a backup backup DVR) ;)
