The current schedule for deployment of the Software Patch is by the end of the year for most SA/Cisco markets, but Comcast has failed to make most of its schedules. |

Any idea what the schedule is for Danbury, CT? I've been getting periodic "Not authorized" messages on my RNG200 lately. I used to have an SA8000HD but traded it in to get true HDMI output. So far I like it except for the occasional errors. |

CT and MS were supposed to be first, but that was changed to Houston/Galveston. The deployment in Houston/Galveston should be complete by the end of October. According to Comcast's Ted Hodgins, Sr. Director, Video Product Development - Navigation, in Media & Entertainment, "New Guide for Scientific Atlanta Cable Boxes" blog: "We should have a deployment schedule for CT and MS (and other areas) soon and will add that information here as soon as it is confirmed." Here is a link to his blog: » blog.comcast.com/2010/05 ··· xes.html |

Note: The software patch starting downloading at 2:35 am Tuesday morning on my SA 8300 HD DVRs. The download and reboot process took 10-15 minutes. |

What are your software and firmware versions? (Comcast's last upgrade didn't go well on either of my SA8300HDs; I'm wondering if I have received the update yet.) |

If you are still having problems, try doing a hard reboot by holding down the power button and unplugging and plugging the DVR back in. Release the power button when you see the boot screen. If the software needs to reload this procedure should do it. |

So far, no problems; I did do some things while recording last night that should have invoked the recording truncation problem, but doesn't seem to have. |

I hope this gets to York Pa. soon. Thanks for posting this. December. Glad I didn't wait. I switched to DirecTV. I couldn't take the not authorized messages when trying to view certain channels or when watching DVR recording and the box rebooting literally every five minutes for a full day any longer. No one could ever fix the rebooting issue but it would somehow clear up on it's own after a day or so. Same thing happened multiple times with different boxes. |
