First things first. Welcome to the forum! :welcome_sJSkip said:I had a new dish and an HR20 installed yesterday. My old receiver was a Tivo unit.
I have 2 lines feeding the DVR. With my old Tivo unit, I could toggle between the two signals using the down arrow button, therefore watching 2 shows.
How can I switch between the two signals with the HR20? The D* techs can't answer this question.
Thanks
The HR20 doesn't have dual buffers (yet) but there is a workaround available as shown below. If you haven't already, be sure to take a look at the excellent "Tips & Tricks" document as written by Milominderbinder2 HERE.
WATCH TWO SHOWS AT ONCE - The trick is to temporarily record both…
While in the first show, click the ® RECORD button
Press ll PAUSE before you leave a show so it will not play without you.
Press GUIDE twice to go to the second program
Click the ® RECORD button to begin recording the second show
Press LIST and then press SELECT to select the other show
Press ll PAUSE before you leave a show so it will not play without you.
Press LIST and then press SELECT to select the other show
Now that your shows are set up, Press ll PAUSE and then PREV to go back and forth between the programs.
Hope this helps.
