  1. DIRECTV HD DVR/Receiver Discussion
    My other half just picked up a 1300VA APC with LCD for our Plasma/DVR in the livingroom. Was like $129 at CircuitCity.

    Well to be even more fair some of those features aren't even available on Tivo's own S3 DVR. SOme try to blame CableLabs and others say it's Tivo dragging their feet. Who knows I guess the truth with the S3 and many of the DTV DVRs lies somewhere in between.

    I bought my stacker on ebay, was the cheapest place I found. I just bought a second one a few months back because one of the inputs on the old broke off in the middle of the threads. Stacker worked great with my R15, gave me both tuners available off one cable. I did have to buy a new splitter...

    Gotta love being able to predict that they will happen though :)

    I agree the new one is nicer and I don't care if the old one is there or not. No option for that one though ;)
  6. DIRECTV General Discussion
    This thread is done, enough arguing and name calling. If you all cannot play nice then we will have to close threads.

    Tivo currently doesn't have a DirecTV HD DVR in production. No clue if a new one will ever be made or not.

    To use both tuners on a single coax run you will need a Stacker/DeStacker (may also need a multi switch depending on how many feeds you have available outside). This will allow you to stack both signals to one cable and then DeStack them when you get to the receiver. I bought mine on eBay and...

    Ya I have had that happen a couple times. Try the workaround I laid out above. It has worked for me very well.

    Is it on everything you record? I have seen it happen on a couple of shows BUT what I did to get around it was push and hold the skip to end button then did a rewind til just before the problem spot in the recording was and everything was fine from that point on. If you're getting the issue on...

    I also have to ask what is the SA Tivo going to do about any HD shows you try to send to it?

    If you're talking about the HR20, well it is HD it has a bigger HD in it, in general to support the HD I think the hardware is higher end. As for software well the HR20 runs on a Linux backend and as of late has seen many updates to fix issues. I have both the HR20 and an R15 and I do see that...
  13. General Satellite Discussion
    Is there an issue with hooking it up to a computer? Some of the macros and things that I have my harmony do I can't imagine how hard it would have been without using the computer. Using it I just clicked some buttons told it what I wanted and told it to update the remote. Just plugs into the...

    Honestly seemed like a junk remote to me. I have bought x10 stuff in the past but this remote seems a FAR CRY from the harmony and many other remotes. I wasn't impressed with it at all.
  15. DIRECTV General Discussion
    They should call it the Insanium package. :)
  16. DIRECTV HD DVR/Receiver Discussion
    Well it really depends on how you term PUSHED :lol: I don't know it could be that. Could also be where you request what you want to watch and it's streamed to the machine and you can watch it as it's streamed. In that case I would think it would go to the main DVR storage area. I honestly am...

    Nahhh I walked into the bedroom that has my 80 Hour Tivo SA S2 in it the other day and I noticed the noise. For the longest time though this is the DVR that was in my bedroom and after a while I just sort of got used to it. I had a ReplayTV for about 48 hours at one point also. I took it back...

    I thought the 100GB was for Showcases? Wonder how big the VOD files will be and how much you could fit in the 100GB partition.
  19. DIRECTV HD DVR/Receiver Discussion
    You think the HR20 is loud? Man I wish my SA Tivos where as quite as my R15 and HR20 are. With time though all of them just blend into background noise and disappear. As for the remote ya I don't really think the layout is great either but I got a Harmony 880 for Christmas and after I got used...

    Very nice. I would MUCH rather have a black unit as almost everything else I have is black and soon even my Xbox360 will be black.
