Happened approximately 2:30AM AZ time. Big download... Took awhile. System is much quicker.... Lag issues seem almost gone. Just caught it as i was heading to bed.... Quick look seems encouraging.
Everything is more smooth period. My pause and not starting up seems to be gone, yet that happens more random. Couldn't get that to happen though flipping around stations. Will see more later but things looking better for sure at this point.
I've had this for about a week, and I've noticed it's come up with a DVR buffer when powering it on for me every time. I don't have any C31s in my setup.
Well I am not sure if this is because of this update the the first episode of Hell's Kitchen tonight recorded black. And I found out why. It tried recording Channel 5 WNYW from New York city. Im in Columbus OH so it should have recorded 28. I have Hell's kitchen as a smart search. How would it even find that channel. Its frustrating to come home and find a worthless recording.
Lag, non responsive remote is definitely gone on my unit thus far. Pause, resume, play issues have ceased to act up also... yet will need to wait a few days for confirmation on that as that particular issue is random and increases as time goes on.
Thus far im really pleased though.... They finally got an update that makes me give Kudos.

When you setup the Series Link for Hell's Kitchen did you do it as a "Far In Advance" deal? If so it appears as though the HR34 chose the national FOX feed, found in the 300's, and not your actual local FOX feed. That was a bug that's been reported in the past.
I did a force download on the hr34 and got the new software up date.reboot the hr3r 34 and when it start up on your remote click on 02468and should find the software and download it.
This is expected and you will get the new release when DIRECTV sends it to you. I would recommend that you do not force download firmware as others will suggest, it's not worth the risk.
The new Version Ox067E needs to be in the stream in order for you to DL the newest national release. It is NOT currently in the stream, so doing a forced DL will result in the same version that you currenly have.

I am just not having luck with directv lately. I work up yesterday to the new software...and a completely reset HR34. Everything gone, all recordings, all series links, all preferences, everything. First time I turned the HR34 on yesterday it told me that whole home dvr had been activated...I wondered why I was getting that message and then discovered everything had been reset...any thoughts on why this happened? I have not done a menu reset in weeks and there is no way I managed to hit reset everything in the menu...
As discussed on the MRV thread, I continue to have nonstop problems with receivers dropping off the network and recordings pausing frequently.
My parents are visiting from out of town, and asking why in the world I put up with this terrible reliability. I didn't have a answer....

It may have been a bug in the past, which i didn't have.... until now. Wife and I sat down to watch the 2 Hour Hells Kitchen..No Dice. Black screen. Seems i was premature giving Kudos... Laag is back also. Hope the pause continue issue doesn't begin again or I am going to absolutely go postal. Why cant they fix something without trading it with other issues. Come on DTV, enough is enough..... Damn!!
I still do not have this update as of 7:43PM eastern time on March 14th. Has anyone else on the east coast received this?
