Been down that road before...then I had her visit some friends with U-Verse, and she decided she'd rather have DirecTV and no MRV. I actually got it, back in the early summer, then they pulled for a release candidate, and they just barely brought it back again and now it is gone, so we had MRV...

DHCP Issues AntDogg65, it sounds like a DHCP issue. If the address is completely different, it could be that your DHCP server does not recognize the request from the receiver to renew the IP, this could be caused the server (router) not recognizing requests from the receiver, or it could...

I heard several years back that Tivo was shifting its focus off of its own equipment, onto writing software that could be upgraded to major providers boxes, without a complete new box. Personally that is what I would like to see, I had a first generation Tivo, with a lifetime subscription, in...

Yes Please While they don't have it yet, I hope they ware working on getting it. IPTV currently supports multi room and 4 simultaneous recordings, if Directv puts this feature out, then two DVR's from directv will achieve the same result, but way better service and hardware, hd content...the...

NO MRV means NO CE in my house My wife is nice enough to tolerate my CE testing, however, she fell in love with MRV, and if it went away with a new CE I would be in big trouble, missed it last week, and it turned out to be a good thing, logged in to check out what the update was and read no...

Or Dish in some areas, I think it depends on region, as I looked into U-verse here, and it wasn't available but they offered Dish Network instead, which integrated into the DSL to get network features, then I learned we didn't qualify for DSL. So cable internet which I love, and after a year of...

Finally I figured out MRV, it was combining both playlists into one, ultimately I liked the way it worked. Have been using just fine since Sat, now today I watched show, and then went to watch another and got an error, unable to access AKE. Then the multi-room quit working, I have uploaded a...

Downloaded CE for the first time on both HR21-700 but I am unable to get MRV working, I have done keywords, and also verified in the Misc menu that MRV is turned on, but when I hit the list button, it only brings up the local list. I saw the download come down, and it took about 30 minutes for...

This is my first CE download, hopefully it works well, I really want MRV right now, so if this goes national, let focus on being able to network multiple receivers to make a "TV Farm" of another suggestion is develop a link to record to NAT, that would make great multi room and give me tons of...

Thanks for the info, so it generally is not a problem. I'm not afraid of reboots, if it gets excessive, I'll just switch back to NR, I just wanted to make sure that switching back NR wasn't going to mean a high chance of losing recordings, I talked it over with my wife (I don't dare mess with...

Has anyone lost recorded shows when switching from CE back to national? I have read a lot about the guide cache being lost, which I can deal with if I decide to switch back, however, I really don't want to lose any recorded programs. I am fine if guide cache gets lost, but not okay if...

hopefully the CE that comes out tommorrow won't be high risk, my wife put the brakes on anything listed as high risk, she does not want to lose any recorded shows, so I will start a new thread with additional questions.

It all depends on state laws, so I would advise checking with a local housing agency. In California, if they signed the paperwork for authorizing the installation of permenant equipment, their stuck with it. Taking the dish off the roof will leaves holes in the roof, and removing the cables...

Short sweet and to the point, combine the multi-room and network abilities of IPTV but bring the nationwide availability and age technology of satellite, and you have the best television period, not mention no unfair business practices with multi million dollar settlements, that both competitors...

Running CAT 5 is easier than you think A dedicated CAT 5 data line will give you the best possible performance, running the line isn't to bad either, if you have a basement/crawl space or attic access. I just ran a 130 foot line under the house in 35 minutes. You can buy little plastic punch...

Although not very often, we do record 3 or 4 HD shows at once. However, it probably happens 3 or 4 times per week that 3 shows we want to record are all on at the same time, I currently have to get up off my lazy behind and go to the other receiver and set the recording, still worth it when...

Does the receiver support gigabit, if the receiver does not supprot gigabit, I don't think you will gain much going to a gigabit switch, the receiver will still only handle up to 100mbps, after you factor in overhead, you'll get about 60-80 mbps. I tried hooking my office computer that were...

If I put CE on just one receiver, would that the national receiver be able to see the recordings on the other?

AT&T U-Verse offers some nice features, the ability to record 4 shows at once, and multi-room viewing. DirecTV should try to compete with this, I would love to see the ability to link multiiple receivers together to make 1 super receiver (something similar to bonding T-1s) ie you have one...

Thanks for the info, I guess I'll have to wait until Friday to get the CE, do I need the CE on both receivers, or will it work on just one? I have thought about putting the CE on my bedroom receiver which we dont' use very often to see how stable it is etc. and keeping the national on the...

I am new to this forum, I love DirecTV, but I really would like to see multi room viewing. I finally got around to networking my HR21-700s together. I did the edge cutter keyword search, and see in the misc options that multi room is an option. (I am still on national release, I just finished...
