Thanks to Cutting Edger's
Your help and dedication is what has gotten the HR20 to this point, and what will help it get to the next level

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

Excellent. Thanks!

Do they have CE downloads for the 100 machines? I haven't gotten my new HR20's yet so I don't know which ones I will get.

 

[Brewer4]

Yes but not this week.

 

[Brewer4]

This is not a major change to folks that already have the new White GUI. Its only small improvements and fixes. It is a good time for those that missed prior week opportunities to download.

forced download here getting version 015C
seems like national to me not ce

National update

What version is the last 'National' version to be pushed through? My Info says OX15C from 5/16/07, is that correct?

Reason I ask is because when I run a system test, it says my phone is not active. But I ordered a PPV the other night. Just checking

Any other way to see if my phone line is working?

Thanks in advance

Too early. Look at the 1st message again.

The CE is scheduled for download from 11:00PM EST Friday night - 2:30AM EST Saturday morning.

Anytime you download outside the scheduled CE download window, you will get the national release.

 

[Brewer4]

Yes this is a one day only. Tonight starting at 11 PM EST or 8 PM PST. For us East Coasters that runs into very early Saturday morning. Keep in mind all downloads work like this. They all start at 11 PM EST and run for 3.5 hours. Its usually 2 days and the preferred days seem to be Friday and Saturday.

ramy, i just gor my new hr20....the installer said it was the hr20-100 (but not black). anyhow, when he was setting it up, it did get a new software upgrade...i wanna say 015? haven't checked my first hr20 yet.

 

[Ramy]

Nice, I get mine tomorrow. I watched the Reds last night on channel 94 with the Tivo. I guess they fixed my problem.

 

[iceturkee]

i do have the hr20-100 as i didn't have any new software downloads on the other.

going to watch the reds game soon.....watching cubbies/bravos right now.

Re-starting your reciever

First time I've seen that message, but I usually don't watch it while loading, so it may not be anything different than any other.
