I recently got one for my HR22-100. When watching anything in HD the screen flickers when going into and coming back from a commercial break. I checked the HD feed from the satellite and the screen flicker is not there. It happens on every channel (mainly during primetime) and was curious if anyone else has this issue. Should I try a re-scan or just call D* and have them replace the AM21?

I have the same issue. I believe it is having a hard time with fade outs. I never seems to interfere with the program itself so , to me, it's not a big deal.

I have the same issue, but I only notice it during prime time on 58-1. And it is only on shows where they fade to black. So I only notice it at the end of the show, so I'm ok with it for now.

I see that as well. Fortunately it's just coming in/out of commercials, so it's not too annoying.

Cool, I just wanted to see if I was the only one. I'm glad I'm not.

Same problem here, except I notice it on 18-1 when I watch Everybody Hates Chris... same issue with the flickering when going into commercials. I don't watch anything on 58 so I can't comment on that.

I'm with JohnRacine, I've never seen the issue on mine. HR21-700/AM-21.
