Thanks to the 681 uniquely-registered voters who have taken the time to let DirecTV know how they value the various Wish List requests!
There are 2 new requests being added to the list this week, so be sure to let us know how you value these ideas here (http://www.sizethis.com/index.php?module=survey&survey=28). It only takes a minute to vote for new requests, which are highlighted in BLUE.
Please keep in mind when you vote that you are simply being asked if you would use a new feature if it was implemented (THUMBS UP), or if you wouldn't use a new feature but don't mind if it's there for others who might need it (NEUTRAL). E.g., the "Ability to remotely control more than two HR20/21's in the same room via IR" is an example of a request that should fall into the NEUTRAL category for the majority of voters. THUMBS DOWN votes should only be used for features that might adversely effect your use or enjoyment of the HR20/21.
___________
Based on the results of this (http://www.dbstalk.com/showthread.php?t=114573) poll,

Our second new Wish List addition is based on the results of this (http://www.dbstalk.com/showthread.php?t=113809) POLL.
"Up to FFX3, automatically switch to PLAY at the end of a commercial block."___________
Because it conflicts with this week's first new request, the following old request has been moved to the "back burner (http://www.sizethis.com/index.php?module=results&survey=28&bb=y)":
"Provide numeric hot links in setup menus for faster menu navigation."___________
WHAT'S HOT! Here are the top scoring requests:
Display only the channels that are in your current subscription package in SEARCH results.
Recording HISTORY should always display the correct reason a show was "Canceled", "Deleted", or "Not Recorded".
Dual Live Buffers - Toggle between two live shows with 30+ minute buffers on each.
OPTION to backup your HR20 settings and/or SERIES LINKS via network or USB drive.
Allow editing of the "CHANNELS I GET" list, similar to the way the OFF-AIR channel list is editable.
OPTION to display more GRID GUIDE information. More channels and hours.
At the Delete/Don't Delete pop-up at the end of recording, RW and REPLAY should still function.
Add more program description INFO, to allow better SEARCHES and to display more show details, like "Original Air Date".
"BLACKED-OUT" programs should be tagged, to prevent scheduling blank recordings.
Ignore irrelevant words or punctuation ("Manual:", A, An, The, 'Til) when alphabetically sorting MY PLAYLIST.
Show the highlighted program's description in the "To Do List" and "History", instead of a static message.
Automatically pad a recording's start and/or stop time by one minute, when it won't cause a conflict.
Undelete, or the ability to allow user acccess to a "recycle bin" to restore a recording.
Implement SEARCH and AUTORECORD as described below, or the key concepts contained within, including top-level CATEGORY search, TITLE AUTORECORD, multiple keywords, wildcards, BOOLEAN logic, CHANNEL filters and REMOTE keypad shortcuts. (Please visit the Wish List to see this request in its entirety.)
SERIES LINK recording options as follows: RECORD: [First Run/Repeat/Both/All with Duplicates]; KEEP AT MOST: [1/2/3/4/5/10/ALL]; WHEN LIMIT REACHED: [Delete Oldest/Stop Recording]; AUTODELETE WHEN DISK FULL?: [Y/N].
Multi-Room Viewing via the Ethernet Port.
OPTION for the PROGRESS BAR to clear immediately when hitting PLAY to exit from a CRUISE CONTROL function, or after the last ADVANCE. ___________
WHAT'S NOT! The lowest scoring items (lowest last):
Ability to "power off" or "shutdown" via a menu option.
Offer a "Keep At Most" option for manual recordings.
Increase the number of Custom channel lists to 5 or more.
OPTION to change color schemes or themes.
Light amber LED for 1 recording and red LED for 2 recordings.
OPTION to use the PLAY key for PLAY/PAUSE and the PAUSE key for SLOW MOTION.

Ability to remotely control more than two HR20/21's in the same room via IR.
"Digital Living Network Alliance" certification of features intended to interoperate with other DLNA-compliant products. ___________
