I'd like to add the ability, in my son's room, to watch recorded shows using the Whole Home DVR service. However, I don't want to pay another $5/month to add another receiver to my account and go through the hassle of running more lines from my dish to house, since there would be no need to watch live TV.
If I purchased a compatible receiver and connected it to my network and TV, but did not activate it or connect it to the dish, would I be able to access recorded programs on my other DVRs?
