remote DVR programming

[GregE]

Did the remote DVR programming ever go live? I did some searching but never found anything so I am guessing no. Also I saw where DishOnline home page says "Coming soon".

I thought my screen saver was saying something about it the other day but out of habit, I pressed the button before reading it all. I'm currently just connected to a phone line but would be willing to move it to my network if I would gain the ability to program remotely.

Like evrything else - soon.

Use the left or right arrows to scroll through the messages.

I hate soon. Sounds like me talking to my kids when I mean never. lol

Thanks. I'll try the arrows tonight. Is there a way to get to the screensaver messages if you are watching a show already?

Press the power button on the remote.

I spotted that on the screen saver as well. Does anybody know how this is supposed to work? Does it use an embedded web server on a VIP receiver, or will it work on any Dish DVR via satellite data stream using Dish corporate web servers?
