  2. DIRECTV HD DVR/Receiver Discussion
    Gotchaa, So you were about to squeeze 124 hours of MPEG-4 HD content or MPEG-2 HD content? Does the buffer work when you get the HD full message? So, since we can easily replace the drive on owned boxes all D* needs to do it fix the space available calculation ;)

    If you choose "Estimate arrival time.", even if you pick Next Day Delivery, it gives you an Est. Arrival Date of 9/12-9/13/2006 :(

    So, if I bought a HR20 off of eBay and activated it, would D* consider it leased or owned?

    I sent another email via DirecTv's Contact Us page yesterday: "I have been a DirecTV subscriber for about 9 years and want to upgrade to HD with DVR service including HD locals without having to install an OTA antenna. I thought the DIRECTV Plus HD-DVR (HR20) was to be released already, but I...

I was wondering if my email, XXXX could be added to that list." And I received...

    Bob, Thanks again for your help, with the alignment values you gave me using a newer receiver for my zipcode I was able to coarse align the dish in about 5 minutes, and fine tune it in another 15 minutes with my Accutrac22 Pro digital meter. I was a piece of cake once I had the right direction...
