Is there a way to view recorded shows (recorded on a DirecTV DVR) on a PC on the same home network?
It looks like you can accomplish something similar with the GenieGo (if/when it gets re-released later this year), but I'm trying to find a way to do this without first copying the shows to the GenieGo, which can take a while. The goal is closer to the Whole Home DVR where you can start watching a recorded show on a TV and go pick it up immediately on a PC.
I would guess you could do this by connecting a DirecTV box directly to your PC with the right video card, but that seems clunky and requires an extra box. Any other ways to achieve this? Thanks a lot for any ideas.
