Jarod,
    Thanks - I saw that in an earlier thread and double-checked it.  I
am selecting the PVR-X50 specific setting in the setup which has me
puzzled.  I'm thinking I missed a step somewhere along the way but
can't figure out where.  Could there be something somewhere that I set
incorrectly to cause it to override this?
