DireTV and Tivo

[tsbarker13]

I have a Tivo Premiere box that I bought for use with my local cable company. I am contemplating going to DirecTV. Wil the Tivo Box "work" with the DirecTV feed?

No. The tivo unit is not designed to work with Directv or Dish Network. It doesn't have the equipment to process their encryption. It will be best to get a dvr from Directv. You can use it for local ota.

Both DIrectv and Dish only activate their equipment

Does anyone know when Directv will be releasing there Tivo Box?
