Supposedly, DTV says that they are broadcasting the Chiefs and Broncos in HD on channel 95. Yet, when I goto game time on channel 95 it says "Upcoming: Title Not Available" It shows this for the entire day on just that channel. All of my other channels show the correct titles, including the SD version on NFL Network. Apparently, the guide show correctly on the HR10. So I am going with another HR20 failure here. :(

That is probably because the unit rebooted today for the 0xFA software update... and the guide data hasn't processed yet for the special events channel (channel 95)

Would be nice if they could broadcast game on 95 for CBS and FOX games since my local FOX and CBS arent available in HD on the DTV

Why not just set it to record manually?

With the SF package, none of the HD broadcasts have been blacked out for me, while the SD ones that are broadcast on the locals have been blacked out on the ST channels.

This might work for you.

Nope I don't have the new software yet.
How did you avoid the automatic "push" that gave most of us the update overnight last night?

Beware the manual recording. My recurring have all gone away today with OxFA. I haven't tried a one-time yet.

Happy Thanksgiving,
Tom

Mine upgraded at 3:45 this morning and the Denver-KC game was dropped from my list, also the game just showed up on my guide for tomorrow night a little while ago.

The game has a 4.5 hour window on channel 95 (7:00 - 11:30 PM CST).

I just jumped ahead in the guide and found it, set it to record, we'll see how it goes.

You would have to manually extend it any way or you would in all likelyhood miss the end.

So you might as well not do anything and miss it all!

Sorry for trying to help.
I know I can manually do it, but DTV reads these posts and I am hoping to help make the HR20 better. If they see this problem maybe they can take all the info and fix things. :grin:

It's on 95 right now, my recording started on time.

There is a pretty bad audio lag on optical, and it ain't all that great with HDMI (only slightly better). Thank God we don't have to see lips with words during a football game!

(I'm not saying this has ANYTHING to do with the HR20 itself...this is a common problem on D* and not at all unusual (but less so) direct OTA on the HD channels on my Sammy.)

PQ is OK...not spectacular by any means...very much HD-Lite, compared to the OTA games I watched today.

You can tell Bryant Gumbel hasn't done live game commentary in a long time...he is stumbling all over the place.

I didn't check my R15 today, but on my HR10 is was setup so I could set it to record at least while the Dallas game was on.
