Good luck to everyone on this weeks CE. I will have to miss this one. I wish, I wouldn't have listened to the wife and moved the slingbox off of the HR20.
 
Both fine on a 20-100 and 20-700 - taking cover for the night (natural fireworks aka thunderstorm :) )
 
I just ran my System Test and it hung up for awhile, never did complete, I tried to cancel and it was unresponsive, no buttons on the remote or rec. worked.

Once I rebooted, everything is working again.

Hmmm, do I dare try the test again ?

You can play media from the pc to the unit... some beta testers are doing it from unit to pc... only way to record is via SVHS or composite out's now...
 
OK....have an hr-100/v0235 , is it my understanding you can only download between the 11 and 2 time slots? Will the hr100 see an increase in channel change speed. Sorry for being ignorant , I'm a newbie :)
 
Not sure if the change speed is faster, but it could be. The entire OS is very stable in this release. You can only download it from 11pm-2am Saturday nights.

The -100 is a manufacture code, we also need to know the two numbers after the HR, is it a 20 or 21? I ask since I have both and my HR20's have never really had any speed issues, the HR21 is a tad slower and the CE release on Saturday night is supposed to address speed issues.
