Since the upgrade, as others have reported, all my DVR'd HD shows have been locked. Of course you can unlock them with a few additional steps, which you have to repeat each time you access it; but wondered if there's a way to unlock them and keep them unlocked?
 
You can disable just the lock on the channel that the program was recorded on.. After I locked out all of my 9XXX channels so I didn't have to see them twice on my guide I found that many of my programs that had previously been recorded on those channels now showed locked.. Why.. Because I locked out those channels.. There is no way to make a program show if the channel it was recorded on is now locked.. I also had to go back in and change my timers to the mapdowned channel so my new shows weren't showing up locked..
 
I locked them out on my dvrs too. I don't need or want a bunch of duplicate channels in my guide. I use the mirrored map down low channel numbers instead. I do the same for my hd locals too.
