I don't think you'll have to pay the fee to get media streaming and Direct2PC on a new install. I got the Media Streaming automatically just by hooking the setup into my network. I haven't tried the Direct2PC, but I assume it works the same. I don't know about the security camera, but if...

Basically, all of your HD receivers (including the DVRs) are networked together so that you can watch any of the recorded programs on any of the receivers. It's $3/month, but you still have to pay the $5/month/receiver for each box after the first one. The savings would come from the up front...

To be honest, I've not noticed any sound at all. Guess that means it's pretty quiet.

I didn't sign up for MRV prior to install, so it wasn't fully set up. Plus, it was still a beta release at the time, so I'm not sure he knew about needing the adapter and couldn't test it since I hadn't decided to sign up for MRV. He did give me his cell phone number and was more than happy to...

No, the HR24 has the DECA built in. In my setup, I have two HR24s and only need one total adapter for the router into the splitter. No adapters on either HR24.

Correct. In fact, if you connect a live Ethernet connection to the Ethernet port on the HR24, DECA will not work and you can't do MRV via coax. To get MRV and the Internet connection, you need to use a DECA adapter to get the Ethernet connection live on the loop (hooked straight to the...

The guide seems fairly similar to me, but I'm not a guide aficionado. I don't use the category sorting or anything like that, just use it to scan through channels to see what's on. Both have the ability to jump forward, the HR24 uses a 12 hour jump while the 722 is a day. It's basically been...

I'm using 2 HR24 DVRs, so not sure how it works with the H24. On the HR24, the list shows all of the programs that are recorded on either box and each is controlled with it's own remote.

I switched from Dish to Direct on Monday and was given two HR24s for my setup. Previously, I had a VIP 722 that I used for over 2 years. I have to say that I was a little concerned about moving to a Direct DVR after hearing that Dish's boxes were so much better, but now I'm wondering if that...

When you are using the DECA on the HR24, the Ethernet port is disabled. I had a hard time getting MRV working because I had the Ethernet cable plugged into the port on the box. The DECA is built in, but you have to use a DECA adapter to get the internet connected to the loop.

I got it figured out. I'm running two HR24s, which have DECA built in, but it is not active if an Ethernet cable is plugged into the Ethernet port. I unplugged the Ethernet cable and restarted the box and it's working now. The downside to this is now I don't have a network connection. I...

That's the problem, it's not showing up. I have programs recorded on both DVRs and can't see the others in either DVR list.

Does anyone know what the DECA/SWM setup should look like? The installer tlold me he had this thing all set up and I'd just need to activate MRV, which I did this afternoon. I have two HR24s and I see in the menu that it is activated on both receivers, but neither can see the other box. In...

I wasn't sure I wanted MRV when they installed mine on Monday, but have decided to go ahead and sign up. Just activated it on my account online as the installer said it's all set up and just needs activation. Will I need to do anything special on the boxes to get this to work? Do I need to...

Really? I just switched from Dish to Direct and got one HD DVR free and the second for $99. I was even able to configure that on the website without talking to anyone.
