Well finally got my install done yesterday, D* said between 8 & 12, guy got here at around 10. Think he finally finished around 2, he had only been working for D* for about a month. (incidentally his company called later looking for him, didnt know if he had finished my install, or what). Anyway there are several things I would have done differently, but he got it done and was an alright sort. Got the d'l and it was off to the races.
Anyway only problem I have noticed is that if something is recording and I try to use the stop & delete menu option, it locks out the remote and requires a hard reboot to get the use of the remote back. Only oddity I have found is that if you are ffing to on a recorded show when you catch up the screen seems to freeze so you have to back it up about 10sec like there is some buffering thing or something. Other than that was able to watch the Blues/Preds game in HD last night (f*n amazing), got the OTA channels listed but really the D* versions look just as good to me.
I set the output of the HR20 to 720p which is the res for my tv, and no problems great picture.
Next on my list is an upconverting dvd, new HT stereo and eSata for more space.
