In my case I was wondering if it's because it's been less than 12 hours since it was installed so maybe the guide is still filling up causing it to be slow. But if others are having issues maybe that's not it. Have one other receiver in a bedroom that has the new UI and it's very fast. I did make sure native was off and it was. Fiddled with things to no avail. Mayhaps it's just because it's new. Worth it in the long run getting it at the discounted price.
Another issue while I'm thinking about it. Set up several series recordings to only record "first run." And it's showing that it will record every episode on all of them whether new or not. I notice that shows aren't showing in the guide descriptions as "new" or "repeat." Is it always like that?
Also, I don't have locals yet. Anyone know if you don't have locals if you are able to access network On Demands like NBC On Demand, for example? Can't test for myself as the D* router won't detect my home network for some reason.
Shady,
Patience is a virtue !
Give it 24-48 hours and see if it picks up.
When you do a CE thats also a point to be made, as theres a lot of info being loaded.
As for the First Run recordings, in the guide info, it should have the date that the program is first aired ....
Also, you may want to go into your Menu/Recordings/Manage Recordings and set your Defaults to what you want them to be as well as the individual recording you set.
When I set up one of my New HR24's, I also had that issue, it would record both, even after I set it up, but it hasn't done it since.
