New TV menu is very SLOW

Used to be able to scroll down on the menu fast, can't now. Push the up /down button to many times it goes right by your channel. I love change, but this one was a bad mistake. Talked with Verizon store personnel and people are telling them the same thing, SLOW and takes up half the screen. Anyone else complaining and what can be done..

Macy, I had the same darn problem with mine. Please see my thread entitled, Motorola QIP 7100 and FiOS Menu Guide" or something to that effect.

Basically you need to go into the main menu and into customer support and to correct STB automatically and it will guide u through the rest. It worked for me but I'll prob ask for the newer Motorolla STBs myself.

It's important to know which receiver model you have. If its a first gen 6000 model, then they run slow the new guide. If that's what you have, then call your nearest fios store and ask to exchange it for a more recent 2nd or 3rd gen 7000 series model. It should be running fine on those models.

You can try setting menus to sd, but I personally would not want to use the new software on the first gen receivers.
