I've never bought a porn ppv but the increase blows. It's bad enough a guy might be sitting around lonely the way it is, then you charge him more! Isn't Directs porn only XX though? Not XXX.

If the units cost the same price why do you get the R15 & put it in the basement? Why not just get a Tivo & not have to worry about where it goes?

I just wrote an email to Direct telling them what a failure this R15 seems to be. It seems with Direct anymore it's all about the money. All the new receivers (D10 & R15) are a big step backwards in the ones they replace. Yet they make approx. $3 million per MONTH by increasing the DVR just one...

Direct told me the R15 was designed this way! How stupid!!!!! I found if you reboot it for a short while you can set up recordings on a freeview. After awhile it will not you delete them from the to do list either. I got 3 movies to record by rebooting it. The thing is the guide takes a long...

93/94/95% on both on Tivo & R15.

My friends Dish 625 is BETTER than my R15, but not my Directivo. The R15 is worse so far than a Dish DVR.

Just checked my signal. It comes in @ 94. That seems strong to me.

The caller id on the older RCA recievers was the best. It was quick, easy to read, had options for time it was displyed & the biggest thing it had a phone on the channel banner. If someone called while I was at work that phone would be lit up. It was nice because you didn't have to get in the...

My signal went out yesterday with only 1" of snow. It only has done this once the first 4 years I owned it. Now it's happened twice last year & yesterday. Wonder what changed. When I hooked up my R15 it showed signal strength of 92 or so. Yesterday it was from 38-78. The heavy slush snow is the...

This unit has more than just that bug. I feel like a Dish Network customer. This R15 needs some serious work yet. The lack of a 30 sec skip & dual buffer is terrible. It records EVERY show even if you input first run, it's slow to react on any change & it locks up & needs reset. This is a...

The R15 seems like a OK box once you get used to the bland D10 like interface & the tiny buttons on the remote that are hard to find in the dark. But the 30 sec skip is the best thing about my TiVo. I guess some of you are too busy watching Star Trek instead of football & never enjoy the 30 sec...

Thanks for the light ring tip. Yes the Icons look more like the ones from say the RACE recievers (what I had before the D10). Those were the best receivers & remotes. Directs stuff seems to be going backwards in terms of goodies.

It does not appear to have a 30 second skip! Even Dish Network has this. This to me was one of the best features of a DVR. If Direct doesn't correct this with the dual buffer issue I'll be sending this POS back. How in the world can Direct not include that?! FYI, The R15 has 4 RR or FF...

Yes I saw that too. I was just going to link it & then didn't. I thought I'll just write my own & give VE the props they deserve. His review has good pics. Me I'm too pissed at my local provider to take pics :mad:

Got my R15 up & going about 5:30 today. Thanks VE! It took about 2 hours. I unpacked everything & started to get it going. It gave me an error, no 2nd tuner. (I have to run the 2nd line this week-end). Then it shut off & rebooted & inmstalled new software already. Then I had to get it...

According to UPS I get my R15 Thursday! I only have one lead to the 2nd room run but I'll deal with that on the week-end I guess.

shipping from IN. I'm in OH, Hope to have mine by the week-end then.

Just wondering. Does the remote have an extra button compared to the D10 remote? On Directs website it doesn't, but on Best Buys it does. It's right under the TV Input button. Also, I'm a VOIP customer. Will this box need to dail out on a land based phone 1st? ala TiVo

Tressler, That's exactly how I use my Directivo. Direct better add that feature! It's so handy jumping back & forth those 30 minute shows fly by.

The R15 sounds good in those respects. The thought of more upgrades is intruiging, however can you advise on this subject.... The rumor is that the R15 cannot buffer both tuners at once like the TiVo does. I'm always jumping with the live Tv button channel to channel, esp. during football...

you state that you doubt anyone will want to return the R15. Have you personally had a chance to "play" with it? Just wondering...If so what is your honest opinion on R10 vs R15? After having a TiVo I'm wondering if perhaps I won't be disappointed with the R15.

20% restocking?! WTH? Usually that only occurs after 30 days.

2 questions #1 If I get another DVR. ( I currently have a Directivo) will I have to agree to a 2 yr commit? I worry because I may join the military before that in which case I wouldn't need Directv #2 If this new R15 blows can I return it for a refund & buy a R10?
