Multi-Room viewing Units

[gbertler]

Any word on these units being deployed in the field? I've called my Time Warner office for the past year and all I get is that there still testing these. currently the HD digital boxes don't have the sfotware loaded in them to run this. is this going to change? Also, has anyone heard if you can have 2 servers (MRV units), or only one?
Thanks,
Greg

Last I heard was that the units were not working well in testing. I do not know if that is true.

My thought would be they are holding off on these to see the outcome of the Cablevision network DVR that they are testing. If that proves to work well, and they clear all the legal stuff the programmers are challenging, then TWC will just deploy network DVR instead. Just my thought anyway.

I hope the hell they don't switch to network DVR service.
