Hmm... curious. MRV?

The purpose of the CE's is not necessarily for NEW ITEMS ....
Actually the New Items are nice but NOT the purpose, so if your only in this for the new items, I suggest you not do these beta tests.

I just dont get how they cant tell you by now whats in the release. About as bad as the HD ppv channel count.

 

[jessshaun]

No no no....

I actually enjoy the tests. I download every week. Just dreaming. It'll come one day. No worries.

Whats up with the signal strength meter, are they actually planning on letting us scan in our own ota channels instead of the channels they feed to us. Its going to be hectic on feb 17 with all these switches going on. Might as well let us scann them in.

What signal strength meters are you talking about and how have they changed ?
Letting us be able to scan our own channels would be GREAT !

Yea I heard that the senate agreement they made, makes them extend the date, but stations still can turn off analoge before if they want too.


Look the metar changes at 96 percent, there is a darker blue one as the software installs. Never noticed that.

Edit: at 97 it goes back to the lighter blue one.

Yeah, DBS now says under hood and release candidate.
