Notes
This CE may remove your guide cache if you did not download a previous CE. Please allow up to 24 hrs to restore your full 14 day guide.
If you revert from CE back to National x3A8 you will lose the guide cache, recordings made after CE, recordings played back since CE, Series Manager entries and the To Do list.
Please do not report sluggish issues or missing search results within the first 12 hours after download.

Specifics as to Cinema enhancements:
On the channel 1096 homepage, you can select DIRECTV Cinema titles and manage a queue of selected titles to be automatically recorded by the DIRECTV Cinema feature. You can also select In Theaters (future) titles to be recorded as soon as they become available on DIRECTV. In order to help us test this feature, please use homepage 1096 instead of the regular 1100 homepage.

If your HR2x/R22 is Internet connected all other VOD homepages will behave as usual, except that VOD download requests (currently downloading or pending download) will appear in the Playlist and not in the Queue. You may also see an option of a fast load 720p download, but do not select this option since the fast load download is not available for this CE cycle.

Nice,
I went to 1096 to check it out and help out and found that Anything you select says " No matching programs found" or something like that.

So much for helping out ...

Quick question, is MRV gone now? It's no longer working on my systems and I've had messages saying that I had to order it now. I must have missed something...Could someone elaborate for me please?

Thanks. I'm assuming that it's a flat $3 instead of $3 per receiver like some other companies??

Is it just me and I need to reboot the system or did they turn off the images and ratings when you pull up the details on shows?

[mlbfans]

I lost my station logos, too...

 

[Jimbo]

The Cast and Crew are listed, but no pictures, maybe they will take time to come in with the new CE.

The movie titles cover the Directv logo in the upper left corner.

What channel are you referring to ?

I'm flipping thru channels and have not had this happen yet.

 

[mlbfans]

A couple of the Starz and Showtime listings...

 

[mlbfans]

Actually, a few other channels list a movie graphic...

 

[Jimbo]

I see it's a bit different.
The Logo is more or less missing, but it is fine under the channel number.

Wonder why that is ?
I t did the same thing on 307 (WGN) but not on 248 (FX )

R22 and HR23 MRV

Thanks. I'm assuming that it's a flat $3 instead of $3 per receiver like some other companies??

I spent over an hour on the phone with Directv this morning trying to ger MRV working. I was told that since I have an R22 (HD enabled) and an HR23 I didn't have the right equipment to do MRV. Even though it worked fine during the beta. The answer was to replace the R22 for $99.00 and buy the DECA for another $99. Very disappointed with the answer.

So. the programs show up in the guide, but no channel logos...even after a re-boot...
