L3.04 Update
Looks like they are skipping to L3.04. Does anyone have this update yet? What changes has it made?

Pardon my ignorance -- I'm still new to dish. How do we get the updates? Do they automatically download with our nightly programming update? |

Don't get frustrated, it's likely your just not in the target range yet. Updates are normally done in 3 phases, the first is typically a partial phase to see if it causes any issues in public before releasing it to all. |

Ok. Got the update last night. I noticed the change in the PIP. That's a nice feature. Do you know what other issues the 304 is suppose to address? |

Yea. Talking about the Picture beside picture feature. The color seems to be more vibrant to me with the HDMI connection. Haven't lost the signal or picture once. I also noticed they changed the signal strength numbers like they did a while back on the 322. So far, so good. Oh yea, the color is now stable on the SD output, which is what my original complaint was.
I don't have it hooked up to my network so I can't check the Ethernet connection.

I do, and no it isn't active yet... But if you saw the DLNA 222 demo/display at CES 2008, it's coming... how soon I don't know. |

been a little over a week since the update, and no loss of video/signal since then, even through some very stormy weather. still had an occasional glitch, but nothing that didn't resolve itself within a second or two, and definitely nothing that required rebooting the receiver.
not sure if it's related to the update, but things seem to be looking up!
