I have had a DVR for serval
I have had a DVR for serval years and love it. Does anyone know how to load a recorded show onto a laptop or a PC?
Scheduling DVR Recording. I
Scheduling DVR Recording. I just viewed the DirectTV Schedule via my PC across the Web. Great! I want to select a show to record from my PC, but wasn't able to figure it out. I have manually recorded many times, but physically going thru the schedule on the Web seems better than going thru the schedule on-screen.
What did I miss? My PC wasn't connected to the DVR.
Second. Once I record a show, is there any way to view the show on my PC? Direct connect via S-video or USB, or an IP address on the DVR? Thanks
PS, I have a DirectTV Satellite Receiver, Model R15.

DIRECTV just released the DVR SCHEDULER which allows you to:
- Browse DIRECTV's 14-day guide from your computer or cell phone and then set up shows to be recorded, all remotely!
Now you don't need to be at home to schedule your favorite TV shows. This is a really cool function that I have been hoping to have for a long time.

There is a lot of talk on
There is a lot of talk on this website about HD and Local Channels. I am currently a customer of another Sattelite Provider and would like to know if DirectTV cffers their Local programming in HD through its reciever. Currently I am able to get locals at an additional charge but they are not broadcast in HD through the reciever. Their only solution is to add an off air antenna. I did this however I can only recieve 2 of the 7 or 8 locals that are out there. Connecting the same antenna directly to the TV I get all local HD broadcasts. The issue is I cant use the recievers guide nor the DVR function with that setup. Is Direct TV better?
Your initial comments are
Your initial comments are misleading:
The DIRECTV DVR dual tuner allows you to watch one tv show while you record another, record two shows at the same time or, better yet, watch a recorded show while recording two other live shows. The possibilities are endless!
You cannot watch a recorded show while recording two other live shows.
You most certainly can watch
You most certainly can watch a recorded show while recording two live shows. That's the purpose of the DUAL TUNER. The much older models do not have the dual tuner feature. If your receiver was installed properly by a technician, you should be able to go into your recorded programs and watch one while the dvr records two "live" shows. If you did a self-install, then you may not have installed the TWO lines that are necessary for this function. If it was professionally installed, and you still cannot use this feature, then you may have a defective receiver. You should call DIRECTV technical support to find out.
I have a Direct Tv DVR and I
I have a Direct Tv DVR and I was wondering how do I record one show, while just watching another channel at the same time.
Also how do I record two show at the same time and can two shows be recorded while I watch another channel.
Hello,You can do that by
Hello,
You can do that by setting one show to record (using the guide) and simply tuning into the channel you want to watch. You can watch/record any combination of 2 channels, for instance: you can record 1 channel, and watch another OR record 2 channels. You cannot record two shows and watch another all at the same time.
You can for a fact record 2
You can for a fact record 2 channels at the same time and watch either one or the other or go back and forth the each one while they are recording. Also you can record 2 programs at the same time and watch a previously recorded video
I have had DIRECTV DVR for
I have had DIRECTV DVR for almost 2 years, and it is the best move I have ever made. I also have two OTHER recievers at home, in each bedroom. It is FANTASTIC. I would recommend DIRECTV to anyone, and several people have ordered DIRECTV because I told them how great it was.
