Can I watch my DVR from my computer?

[SpareSimian]

My two HR24NC-500's are on my LAN and I'm wondering if there's any way to interact with them from my PC? (Vista 64.) Can I watch TV from the PC? Can I schedule programming?

With my TiVo I can connect to TiVo's site to schedule things I forgot to do from the TiVo on-screen. The TiVo will pick up the scheduling request the next time it connects to the service for programming info. Does DirecTV have anything comparable?

You can watch recorded programs by using Directv2PC software, DIRECTV: DIRECTV2PC.

Scheduling of recordings can be accomplished from the Directv website with a computer or mobile phone, http://www.directv.com/DTVAPP/content/directv/dvr_scheduler.
