    new software up date for the hr34 this mornimg 0x5c2

    It's easy enough to turn Genie off if you don't want it, but since it doesn't take up user-addressable hard drive space, why bother/

    C31 now "public"

    First of all, on the wall mount: I have seen a prototype. It looks like the wall mount for H25s but smaller. As for picking a receiver, it gets its tuners from the HR34, it has no tuners of its own. It can also play recordings from HR34. It can't play recordings from HR2x DVRs yet but I know...

    C31 now "public"

    Actually a little smaller than Joey and you can use an HR34 and 3 C31s at the same time for live tv. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Diplexing like that can cause problems with whole-home (multi-room) viewing.

    Buying a TiVo HD DVR for Directv

    Goldenrhino, I would be interested in seeing what the tech has to say. Since shared recordings are the problem, I'd tend to think there is some bad wiring somewhere. You can go to your HR34 and tell it not to share programs (Menu/Settings&Help/Settings/Whole-Home) or you can put a band stop...

    New to DirectTV Questions - Installation and networking requirements

    I wrote the article... If you set your wireless network up as 5GHz 802.11N only you might have some success, but don't count on it. It's not the raw bandwidth, as you really only need about 12Mbit to do the job. It's the other issues with wireless. You need a really strong smooth signal with...

    HR 34 Installation Question

    I think I understand your issue, and yes, there was an installation problem. If I get you, you had a 4-port splitter run from the SWM2 line on your multiswitch. It was feeding 9 tuners (HR34=5, other DVRs=2 each) By moving the HR34 to the SWM1 line with nothing else attached, you have 5 tuners...

    Can I use a DVD recorder?

    If this is a DVR with the new HD Guide you'll have to press and hold {EXIT} to switch to 480 resolution or you'll get a huge nag screen instead of the menus. Or get one of these: Monoprice Component YpbPr to Composite Converter (7114) from Solid Signal

    HR34 Additional Equipment Needed for Self Installation

    I would simply say just be careful with buying from an individual. There are a lot of HR34s out there that are older than you would think. You might want to get one from a retailer in a sealed box.

    Sending back HR21 refurb

    There are plenty of cases where the DIRECTV CSRs will credit you if you get a receiver from a third party. It never hurts to ask.

    AM-21 question

    The HR34 will do a channel scan instead of relying on DIRECTV's table.

    Multi Room View through Eithernet instead of Coax

    I think an average user would be happier with two SWM-16s (or a SWM-16 and a SWM-8). The SWM-32 is essentially four cascaded SWM-8s and does not allow for MRV between the 4 banks. With lines from the dish split to different SWMs, you can run dual cinema connection kits (one from each SWM) into a...

    HR34 Existing Customer Discounts

    I had heard that if existing customers were getting the rebate, it was a mistake and it's not going to happen for long.
