Some improvements to MRV. Make note of this line:
All HD DVRs should have this weekend's CE version for MRV functionality

Plan to download on ALL your HR2x if you use MRV.

 

[NutFlush920]

T minus 55 minutes!

Remember folks...

If your in the CE and have issues, don't call DirecTV, instead call Doug Brott, he is standing by and waiting for your call. (Just kidding folks!)

DON'T CALL DIRECTV IF YOU ARE HAVING ISSUES WITH CE SOFTWARE. INSTEAD POST A MESSAGE HERE OR AT DBSTALK AND SOMEONE WILL HELP YOU!

 

[DTV_Guy]

Haven't downloaded a CE in a while. Can't wait to try out the Dual Live Buffers. That was one of my favorite features on my old DirecTivo.

I almost crapped my pants the other day thinking my kids ordered some RAP Movie.

Luckily it was just the CE screwup. Thats why its called a beta.
