    Watch DVR without Satellite hooked up?

    Works on old DVRs I have an old Phillips SD DVR and wanted to use it in the bedroom where there wasn't a Directv connection. First the DVR tried to connect to a satellite, which of course it couldn't. On each step I told the DVR to skip what ever it was trying to do and move on. Eventually...

    3 HR20s in one room, remote???

    Thanks for your help - RF is the answer Just wanted to thank those who responded to this thread for your help. Using the remote's RF mode solves the problem. As far as I can tell you have to use a seperate remote for each HR20, but each remote will be unique to the HR20 it controls. As far...

    3 HR20s in one room, remote???

    Upgrading HR-10-250 for HR20

    I understand some folks feeling its not an upgrade as I really like the Tivo interface. On the other hand, the HR20 has gotten better. I've had one for about a year--paid $250 for it (but got about $150 in free programming). Also, on the positive side, I get to keep my 2 HR10-250's. I plan...

    I just got off the phone with Retention and recieved a great deal. I wanted to upgrade one of my two HR 10-250's (owned not leased) for a HR20. The woman at Retention checked my account, and current upgrade offers, and said I was entitled to two free upgrades for my HR 10-250's and that since...
