DVR Movie Export

[matthewh]

I have Dishnetwork with DVR. I was just wandering if any of the integrated satallite DVR, PVR or Tivo units allow the content of the DVR to be downloaded to a PC? I heard there is a usb port on the Dishnetwork DVR and there is an ethernet port on there latest mpeg-4 capable unit. Just wandering.

While not integrated, Replay boxes will. The new receivers do indeed have ethernet ports for "future use"

Do any of the Replay boxes have some way to take control of the Dish such as automatically changing channels and recording shows? Perhaps even a whole program guide in the replay box instead?

IR Blasters or serial port for some D* receivers to change channels and yes they have a 9 day guide... I have 1 hooked to a E* 811 receiver and another hooked to a D* Samsung T360 with the third hooked to a D* H10 bowill not change channels on it) But Replay boxes are hard to get ahold of now.
