I guess it pays to stay up late and check these forums! Now the questions begin: Did you have audio dropouts before, and do you now?

I was setting up clean 3.1.5f build yesterday and the 6.3b slices arrived this last night.
Christmas comes early!

I'm waiting like a month before I upgrade this time. Two bad experiences is enough for me to wait.

I have a stock H10-250 - not baked or anything. I have 6.3a on it right now.
I don't have the phone connected. How do I know when to hook up the phone to install the new version 6.3b? I have to dial long distance so I only dial out when absolutely necessary.
Thanks.

Crap he said it was coming real soon now. It is not like he is the guy clicking the proverbial "upload to satellite" button or anything.

In particular, Earl does NOT work for DirecTV. He does seem to have good contacts inside DirecTV, though, and I for one very much appreciate his passing on what info he can on what is happening.
Usually the way this works is that everyone gets the new software "slices" over the satellite and stored on disk, but the authorization to actually install the update comes during a phone call and not everyone gets the auth at once. If you have network access to your TiVo and have TiVoWebPlus installed, you can see if the slices are there in the MFS tree swSystem. If not, then you can try connecting the phone line, making a call, and see what happens. If no "pending restart", wait a week and try again.

Anyone hear about any release notes or anything? I wonder if this fixes more than just the audio dropouts, like the recording issues that 6.3 and 6.3a had.

I disconnected my phone line until some feedback on 6.3b. Do not want to be a beta tester again. Will live with audio dropouts for a while as I can work around them as I still can get channel 88 for the fox network. Better the devil you know than the one you don't.

Nothing "spectacular" other then the Dolby Digital Audio Fixes, and some stability fixes

Earl have you moved past email correspondence with your Directv contact(s) to maybe phone, IRC, or maybe even walkie-talkie? :-)

I have a feeling it's not but that was almost more irritating than the dropouts for me before I went back to 3.1.5f...

I forced a daily call and no update. I wonder if they are gradually rolling this out also?

Got it too. Running the slicer now. Hopefully it's not messed up when I get home (but I've got a 3.1.5 image just in case).

Makes sense though, they need to make sure this one goes right.

Didn't intend for it to be fun (hence no )
