    how to watch one channel while recording another with a DVR?

    Thanks guys. My problem is when I'm recording something on TV1 that comes on let's say at 10:00 pm. When I go upstairs to watch a different show on TV2 at 10:00pm all I can get is the show I'm recording on TV1. I'm recording so I can watch the recorded program at another time so I really don't...

    how to watch one channel while recording another with a DVR?

    How do I watch one channel while recording another at the same time? There has to be a way but I can't figure it out. I can do it on my VCR so I would think it can be done on a DVR. My DVR model is ViP722k. Please help if you can.

    Cannot get HD

    Hi everyone. I just found your forum and am a brand new satellite user. I have a couple of questions. When I had the dish installed the technician said I would not be able to get HD because of interference from a big maple tree in the neighbors yard. When I called customer support they said I...
