    Software Update for the H20-600

    I forced the upgrade yesterday at the direction of D* tech support. She told me it would speed up the guide (which, of course, it doesn't) Haven't really noticed any differences. On a side note, in a span of 2 weeks I now have had two H20-100s and one H20-600 (refurb) The first 100...

    HR10-250 6.3 Software Announcement

    Main benefit = faster guide. But I have my doubts about whether this update actually exists.

    New HD-DVR comes out (post what YOU were told)

    7/6/06 - Installer told me "November" (Also told "26 new HD channels by end of August") 7/15/06 - High Definition tech support told me "end of August" (Also told me there is no software update for the HR10-250's coming)

    26 New HD Channels?

    Well, that's what the local installer told me 2 days ago. He actually said "by the end of the summer" I know, I know, take it for what it's worth.... Also said the new HD DVR wont be out until December....

    New software for HR10-250?

    Just got my 250 yesterday, and it is certainly good to hear a software update is on the horizon. This is painfully slow compared to my other SD DirecTivos

    DirecTivo HR10-250 Blowout!

    If they actually come and swap out our HD-DVRs with the new one, I'll be suprised. Only time will tell, though...

    Help me understand what I just did!! *HR10/ST promo related*

    Got it, that makes more sense. And actually, I'd be fine with them installing a 5LNB, wouldn't I? I just wouldn't get locals on my HR10, but I could still get everything else, right?

    Help me understand what I just did!! *HR10/ST promo related*

    Sweet! So, if you can get your HD locals OTA, there really is no *need* for the 5 LNB at this time, right? Now the question is, when they start providing *other* channels MPEG-4, I'll need tu upgrade the dish.

    DirecTivo HR10-250 Blowout!

    Copied from other thread: *Note* - If you already have a 5LNB, you may be SOL... OK, So the HDTivo deal got me curious. Since D* is apparently trying to get rid of these HR10's, I figured I'd better jump on this now... But here's a little background: I recently moved from...

    WARNING: This is going to be confusing... :D OK, So the HDTivo deal got me curious. Since D* is apparently trying to get rid of these HR10's, I figured I'd better jump on this now... But here's a little background: I recently moved from Minneapolis to Houston. May 1st to be...

    DirecTivo HR10-250 Blowout!

    So I'm on the phone with retention right now. They are telingme, they do in fact have this deal... However, because I am in Houston (MPEG-4 locals), they cannot give me the HR10-250 because I wouldn't be able to get locals. In a perfect worl, they would just give me this now, I'd get my...

    HR10-250 for "FREE", sort of......

    Thanks for the tip! I'm gonna jump on this, but I've got a question... I am currently in temp housing as my home is being built, so my sub is on suspend until I re-activate it and they can come "move" me to my new house. If I call now, and sign-up, will they ship the HR10 to my temp...

    'Moving' to area with locals

    I'm not sure if I understand the difference between spot beams and transponders, so I'll just ask the question. I'm moving to Houston, TX in a few weeks, but would like to have the Detroit, MI locals. Looking at the maps this wonderful site has directed me too leads me to believe I'm SOL...
