It will not be fixed except for ota channels delivered by DirecTV. Any off your antenna which are not carried by DirecTV will not have guide data as DirecTV no longer allows those channels to use their own data to fill the guide. This went away many many ce's ago. And has annoyed me ever since. For instance, in Buffalo we get many OTA's from Canada and the guide in the H20-100 used to load this data via the channels own data stream but DirecTV decided to ditch this and the Canadian channels no longer show program data.

DirecTV just started offering my local channels in HD on Tuesday, but I haven't ordered them. If I do so, will I be able to see the guide info for my OTA's. Or will I only see guide data for the local HD's from DirecTV?
Only guide data for the local HD's from DirecTV. All other OTA's will have NO guide data.

That's ridiculous on DirecTV's part. Why would they sell a receiver with OTA capability and then block those channels from the guide?
I don't know why they took the H20-100's ability to do this away. It still makes me pissed to this day. It used to be great having all the data now I just browse to see what is on those channels as complaining got nowhere.

Concur on lack of screen saver:nono2:

It was the first thing I checked when the reciever came back up after the download......just happened to be watching a 3:13 a.m today when it came down.

While the select button does now allow tuning to an entered channel number it still "dings" making the error sound....but it does tune to the channel.

Does no one check the work of the programmers?????

WTF

Sorry if this has been answered but finally got to my kids play room because they could not change the channels. First thought the kids did something but reset remote did a RBR and power unplug but the remote still does not work with channel up or down, it looks like it brings up the info screen. Even tried a different remote and had the same problem and also on current NR so not sure what to do.

Check your Channel list. When this happened to me, my list was blank. So channel up / down would not work, but a manual entry of a channel would.

Just received a refurbed H20-100 to replace a fried H20-600. The software updated itself to 0x4104 while I was in the setup process. Two questions--the volume control is really slow and requires repeated key presses to raise or lower the volume; in my H20-600 I could just hold the button down and it would raise or lower accordingly. And, the rf doesn't seem to work on the new remote though I kept the rf antenna from the old unit and tried programming it. Any ideas on how to get the remote to work in rf mode (it's an rc64)?
