List of options for each software rev.

[DonDon]

Hi, I have been hacking my HDVR2's for the last year with The Zipper with no problems.

I recently purchased an HR10-250 for a little OTA HD for football season.

It is currently at 3.1.5f software.

Does anyone know of a listing of all of the various software revs out there, and what each one has in it, particularly with regards to MRV. I see occaisional references in various posts, but I have never seen a complete listing with the advantages and disadvantages of each version.

Thanks

Don

the current rev for the HR10-250 is 6.3d (6.3e is rolling out now I think). It does NOT support MRV, you have to use movie loader (? I don't know a lot more than that because I don't have one).

Does anyone have the list of added features with the new 3.5c update delivered to S1 DTivos? A search of this forum and the others haven't mentioned the features yet, only the 'repairs'.
