When transponders are deleted, do the channels associated with them get deleted as well? This is how it seems to work with most receivers, but not all...

Server Issues. We are very aware that there have been system issues the past few days. In troubleshooting the system, it has been determined that the issue is at our provider and is hardware related. As of 12:05 PM ET our provider has moved us to a new server.
Things seem to be running better on this new server. However in trying to diagnose the issue (before finding out it was a hardware issue) we made some system changes which we need to undo. So if you find any issues or errors please let us know in the Operations Center Forum.
Thank you for your patience! Sorry for the issue!

We were just notified by our factory that the delivery of the microHD will be delayed until the end of February. The production date has been moved until after the Chinese New Year's holiday.

Brian, do you know yet how "linear" the response of the microHD Quality meter will be to a varying range of signal strengths?
That is one of my favorite qualities of the Visionsat, I have never seen another STB with such a linear response.

There is some variation on the Signal Level, but refinement on the reading linearity will be in a future firmware release.
Our initial change to the metering was simply change the text to identify the meters with the names that we all recognize. Then technical changes to make sure the Signal Level reading indicated 0% if no LNB is connected and the Signal Quality reading indicated 0% if no valid transponder is detected. We have the default Quality reading set to Pre BER mode. This setting produces a jumpy reading, but far more responsive to reflect fine-tuning adjustments.
We will likely add a menu setting for the customer to select Pre or Post BER setting for the Signal Quality meter and add BER and C/N displays for advanced signal analysis. We also have an option to add a Spectrum Analyzer feature, but an initial review indicates that we would have many hours of development to produce anything more meaningful that a graph without reference.
For now we continue to refine a few features that will be unique to the microHD and explore the new options that 1GB of DDR memory allows.
One feature is not yet in public release yet by the chipset provider. We are unable to disclose this feature, but the microHD will be the only consumer MPEG 2/4 unit to offer. We certainly appreciate the high level of support provided to our team by the chipset provider!

I hear he is ticklish...
If not we can scare him with the sharks with the laser beams tied to their heads.

Excellent!!!

How will satellite names be displayed/listed? Personally, I prefer the numeric orbital position rather than names (old name, new name, etc) and usually manually edit my receivers when it allows it.
If it will not show the numbers out of the box, will name edits be functional?

The Geosat 200 has them in order but doesnt list the orbital slot
it should be able to be edited. I havent tried on mine but maybe later

Will we know before 4/22?
Not sure of the importance of April 22nd.... Is this another Harold Camping "end of the world" prediction that we should be aware of?
We will release details of the feature at time of product delivery. The feature development has required an extreme high level of interaction with component providers. The technology will, with no doubt be eventually incorporated into other brands of receivers if they have been built to specific minimum requirements.
We are choosing not to enable the competition at this time.....
By default the satellite list is divided by KU / C Bands.
Format Example:
97.0W K G19
101.0W K SES1
The satellite names can be edited in the STB or with a PC
4/22. Have we seen these three digits before? Maybe we'll figure your secret out before 4:22 today.

Rumor, rumor, rumor.
If it makes coffee I might sleep with it.
The first satellite receiver to offer the flexability of using K cups or T DISCs, a real breakthrough 
No more falling asleep waiting for the blindscan to finish, stay awake with a fresh hot coffee!

Now I'm really curious! The end of February can't come soon enough...
It's not 4:2:2... This would not be the only consumer MPEG 2/4 unit to offer 4:2:2, as the Azbox has this feature.
Might be something much better!
