Just wondering… I’ve seen all of the Time Warner DVR commercials, and it actually looks decent, unlike the old adelphia one. Did any of you guys get switched over to the new DVR service? Or do all of yours still look like the old adelphia shit? Do i need to do something to make it switch over? I tried calling Time Warner about it, and i got switched over to “Time Warner pricing” which is now cheaper, however it still looks like old adelphia GUI.

anyone know about this?

Also call them up and take your box down to the Chicago St. location, or just stop down and tell them you want to switch it out. They will swap it out and you will be good with it.

I dig mine hasn’t had a flaw yet.

yea this changes the colors but the GUI in the TW commercials is totally different than the Adelphia one, I wasn’t really looking to just get different colors but more-so the better functioning DVR 😛

take a picture of your screen to see what gui you have compared to the 8300 i have.

I have a feeling they are the same and what you saw in the commerical was just random bs
