Record 6 shows on single dvr????
Heard a rumor recently that this is now possible with directv. Anybody know if there is any truth to this?

They have a five tuner DVR, but I know nothing about a SINGLE box that can record 6 live channels.

From my understanding it's working on a SWM system.

to Satelliteguys bigmike!
Dish has a new dvr called the Hopper that can do 6 during prime time, but there are restrictions as to what channels can be recorded. Directv has the new HR34 which can record 5 at one time like msmith said. It is a swm only dvr.BTW, my name is Chip, Raoul5788 is just a screen name

To clarify, you can add other HR boxes to the whole home system thereby giving yourself more tuners in the home to choose from, but it is not a unified group of tuners like it would be with one single box.
As Raoul said, welcome to the forum.

Proud Staff Membersure you can record 6 different shows at once. Heck I did 7 at once
ADVERTISING BOX
Reason I say that is if you are recording back to back shows on the same channel it will record the overlap
