HR20 OTA and Intel ViiV now officially available

[rad]

According to http://www.dbstalk.com/showthread.php?t=73209, release 010B is now officially in the stream available for download and HR20 owners should have received it overnight, if not force a download.

Also, DirecTV has posted info at forums.directv.com on how to install the ViiV code on your PC and set up your HR20 to view pictures and play music from your PC. If you don't have a ViiV Wintel box check out www.twonkyvision.de for another software package that doesn't require a ViiV platform to work.

Enjoy, Happy Holidays.
