What do I need to do to receive my upgrade?
Nothing! Just make sure your DIRECTV DVR is continuously connected to your land-based phone line and you will
receive the upgrade automatically.
When will I receive my upgrade?
The 6.2 software upgrade will roll out over a period of several months beginning in February, 2005.
Customers with more than one DIRECTV DVR may receive their upgrades at different times for each receiver. We appreciate your patience while we deliver these new and improved features to eligible DIRECTV DVR customers nationwide.
Are all DIRECTV DVRs receiving this upgrade?
No. DIRECTV DVR models SONY SAT-T60, PHILIPS DSR6000R, HUGHES GXCEBOT and HR10-250 will not receive
the 6.2 software upgrade at this time.
I have a DIRECTV R10 DVR with 6.1 software. Will I receive this upgrade?
No. The 6.1 software on the DIRECTV R10 DVR already includes the 6.2 features such as folders and faster menu scrolling.
Will any of my DVR settings be changed as a result of the upgrade?
Yes, some of your settings or preferences will be changed back to the factory default settings as a result of the
upgrade. These include: "Favorite Channels," "Channels You Receive," "Spending Limits" and "Clear Channel Banner
Quickly."

2. Select "Settings"
3. Select "Channels"
To change Spending Limits:
1. Select "Messages and Setup"

Will I be charged for this upgrade?
No. We're upgrading your DIRECTV DVR as part of your normal DIRECTV® DVR with TiVo® service at no additional cost.
What happens if I don't have my phone line plugged into my DIRECTV DVR?
You will not be able to receive the upgrade if your DIRECTV DVR is not connected to your phone line. To install the
upgrade, your receiver must successfully make a call to our servers.
How will I know when I have received my upgrade?
You'll receive an on-screen message the first time you visit DIRECTV Central after your upgrade is complete. It will
also appear in your Messages section. You can also check your System Information screen to find out which software
version you currently have.
Will the download delete any of my currently saved programs?
