Got 3.49 this morning and using HDMI to my Sammy....everything seems to be fine. For the last few weeks channel changes with 3.45 seemed to be slow. For the few minutes i checked this AM the channel changes seem faster also.
So far so good for me.

For the second time I got the snowy screen today. Rebooting the receiver brings it back but this is not good. I hope we don't get stuck with this software update even though it fixed my OTA problems.

it was working fine this am but tonight i got the snow screen am rebooting now to see what happens.....this is not good
It sure does. It's happened to me twice, last Saturday and today. My receiver never had a problem with HDMI before and I will not exchange it.
i have never had a problem with HDMI either. I just got 3.49 this AM.....its not the receiver its the software.
I know. I just don't know if I should call complaining so hopefully they will stop this software update. They already have another batch scheduled for tomorrow.

You can get there by menu 6- 2 and than Analysis
Later
Havent seen that screen. Boneman......have you had any problems with snow when you got L3.49 using HDMI ?
Did not check this morning to see if my snow was back. After I did a reboot last night the picture was fine. Thanks to this forum I was aware of what MIGHT happen with i got 3.49 and sure enough i did have snow until i rebooted.
I had seen that screen before. I've reset the HDMI port several times and the snow screen still happened yesterday.

I've received the update. I had the snow screen but just powered off on the front panel. I then waited a couple of minutes and it powered on and went through the usual guide update, etc. I have not had an issue with the hdmi as others are reporting. It looks like the signal strength indicators for ota are now showing lower levels than before, but the signal still comes in fine. I really don't see much change
Got it. At least, I have hope that we won't be stuck with 3.49 because I don't want to be rebooting the receiver everytime that snow screen shows up.
