Anyone have any recommendations for hockey podcasts? Doesn't have to be an official team or league podcast, just one that updates regularly?

The Shadow Knows! This is the official issues/discussion thread for the initial release of nomad. We ask that you keep polite and focused within this thread, and post as much detail as possible.

Being part of the DBSTalk community means working together to help each other document issues and come up with solutions. While everyone gets upset from time to time, this is not the appropriate place for vents or rants. All off-topic posts and discussion will be deleted.

Those of DBSTalk.com, DIRECTV, DISH, The Signal Group, or any other company. It would be nice if the apps would have an "On Nomad" tab which lists the prepared shows. As it is now, you can click on a show that was already prepared for another device and download it from the Nomad but there is no way to see all of the previously prepared shows.

When you're in DVR playlist view, select "Filters", "Ready for Download". That should show you all files on the Nomad ready to copy that have not yet been downloaded to your client device. Running the 1.0 PC client under Windows XP (laptop).

Was working fine yesterday. Today, I get an "account activation" error screen when I try to start it up. Tried "re-try" and "restart", but neither worked.

EDITED TO ADD: Just fired up my Windows 7 client (desktop PC), and the started-up as expected. When you're in DVR playlist view, select "Filters", "Ready for Download". That should show you all files on the Nomad ready to copy not yet downloaded to your client device.

Do you mean it should immediately show such a list when you select the Ready option in the dialog rather than pressing Done to get to the list? If that isn't doable for some reason, and two button presses are needed, changing the Done button to "Select" would be more intuitive. "Laxguy" means a guy who loves lacrosse.

When you select a program to move onto the iPad, it correctly shows a message, "Preparing". But that page is usually dismissed quickly as one goes to look for others to d/l. So, I am suggesting that the dialog box at the bottom of the main page of both the DVR and iPad be changed from just "Downloading" to "Downloading/Preparing".

That should obviate a bunch of questions from newbies. "Laxguy" means a guy who loves lacrosse. Do you mean it should immediately show such a list when you select the Ready option in the dialog rather than pressing Done to get to the list?

If that isn't doable for some reason, and two button presses are needed, changing the Done button to "Select" would be more intuitive. On the iOS client, you have to press "Done" to activate the selected filter. On the PC client, just selecting the filter is enough.

Just ordered Nomad and I am pleading that a WP7 (Windows Phone 7) App is made. I love the WP7 Directv App for telling my receivers to record, now we need a WP7 app for Nomad. Just ordered Nomad and I am pleading that a WP7 (Windows Phone 7) App is made.

Likewise, clients for Android and OS X are needed. Clients for Android and MAC are listed as "coming soon" on the DirecTV website. I have not read anywhere anything about WebOS or Windows Phone 7 being supported.

Forgot to mention, I dropped an email to DirecTV, and they sent me the nomad FedEx tracking number. Not sure why they make it so hard. FedEx shows 2nd day service from Atlanta.

Those are being worked on, according to the Nomad page. I have 3 DVRs and a long playlist (over 100 titles). One DVR in particular has a very long list.

To make scrolling easier, I sometimes "hide" that DVR. When I do, it's playlist sometimes is hidden, sometimes not. When it is not, trying to select a program on the "hidden" DVR instantly updates the playlist correctly.

When I try to "enable" a hidden DVR, it's playlist is usually not added to the Nomad app unless I exit the app and restart it. This is after waiting for the "loading" to complete. To view links or images in signatures your post count must be 0 or greater.

You currently have 0 posts. Mine came via FedEx on Saturday. I'm running both the PC and iOS client on Windows 7 x64 and an iPod Touch 32GB respectively.

Both seem be working fine. Does anyone know if the clients need to be up and running the whole time for the "preparing" step? I'm hoping you can kick off a bunch of jobs to prepare/transcode, put your PC to sleep or exit out of the iOS app and then come back later to do the download.

Uninstalling and reinstalling the software fixed the issue for me. Mine came via FedEx on Saturday. I'm running both the PC and iOS client on Windows 7 x64 and an iPod Touch 32GB respectively.

Client does not need to be up for preparing stage, only downloading stage. I have spent the last 2 hours trying to activate a iOS device with Nomad. I have spent the last hour (maybe even 2) on the phone with DirecTV who can nto seem to figure it out either.

After pressing Activate iOS device, I wait about 10 minutes and then I am presented with an error message 'Activation Failed' and that I am missing one or more system requirements with an error code of AR/1001 in the bottom right hand corner. 6) I have re-installed the iOS app. To view links or images in signatures your post count must be 0 or greater.

You currently have 0 posts. Clients don't have to be up but you may have to restart downloading of the selected programs. Spending to stimulate the economy as fast as the credit cards will allow!

You currently have 0 posts. DLB, MRV, nomad, HDGUI are HERE! By any chance is there an apostrophe in your device's name?

If so, change the name slightly, omitting everything but characters and numbers. In the folder that holds apps for iDevices, what version number(s) are present? Look under both Nomad and DIRECTV nomad.

All these people getting their nomads. I ordered the first day. I just accepted the fact that I probably needed to wait until Monday.

My nomad has been sitting here for at least a day without my knowledge. I'd like to make a request for the iOS app. Allow multitasking so that the app can have shows downloaded to it while you're working in other apps.

I guess it will come, as it doesn't seem out of bounds as far as I understand Apple's rulz. (Which is cursory at best). Sounds like you're aware that you can set a bunch of "preps"- and then download the bunch later.

Downloading takes way less time than the encoding. "Laxguy" means a guy who loves lacrosse. All these people getting their nomads.

Packages, as in plural nomads? "Laxguy" means a guy who loves lacrosse. Just one nomad.

I just unboxed it. I also need to confess that I previously exclaimed that the "jailbroken devices being unsupported" is a dealbreaker. I guess it was just a deal-delayer as I ordered just before midnight on the first day.

The other boxes were deca units because my MRV setup needed to be a "supported" configuration with the nomad. The decas were free. As is the hddvr I'm expecting tomorrow to replace an r15.

(R15 does not work with a supported MRV setup so they HAD to replace the r15). A truck is coming tomorrow am with the dvr. They credited me the $50 tech visit.

Hopefully he just hands me a HR24 and can go on his way.
