Are 2 tvs included with the dvr? both HD?

[Digger100]

I was wondering if 2 tvs are included if you get a dvr? And are they both in HD?

 

[Digger100]

Or I guess I just realized I have a different question. Is the whole home hopper that I see a local distributor advertising, does that mean you can record on all 4 TVs if thats your setup?

The Hopper has 3 satellite tuners and an optional over the air tuner can be added for recording from an antenna. If recording from the satellite delivered locals the Hopper can record the Big 4 networks with a single tuner leaving the other tuners free for satellite/cable channel recordings.

Joeys are tunerless clients that use a tuner from the Main Hopper for viewing live tv or recoded content. However all tuners remain in the Hopper

If you get a Hopper/Joey setup, yes and yes. If you get a 722, then yes and no, you would only have one in HD.

If you want HD at 4 TVs you will probably need a Hopper, a Super Joey and 2 Joeys to give you 5 tuners and 4 receivers/clients.

if you get a hopper, it will only service one TV. You would need a Joeynfor each additional TV. It being whole home, the HD is available in any room with a Hopper or Joey. The VIP series will be two tuner, duo receivers meaning they will service two tvs but one will be in HD, and the other will be in SD.

the Hopper can record the Big 4 networks with a single tuner

iirc, this is only during prime time

It's not anymore. If you record on one, you can record on all.

This feature is available all the time. So you can record 4 shows outside of PTAT.

as long as they are the four major networks, they will record on one tuner.....

OK, I think the PTAT all the time should be clear by now.

 

[Bobby]

Are you sure?

 

[garys]

It was first implemented almost 2 1/2 years ago.
