New User DVR625 Record/Watch ??

[deeve]

Hello, I am a new Dish Network user. I liketo lurk and search on a topic before I post, but there is a lot to sort through and I could not find an answer to this particular question.

Anyway here is my "problem" I do not have the install done yet, but I ordered the DishDVR Advantage with the 625 and the 322 receivers. I plan to have 4 TV's hooked up to the two receivers and want all TV's to work independently. I currently have a TIVO box with Comcast and love the TIVO function..hate the Comcast function One thing we do a lot is watch a recorded show while another is recording. I have been reading the users manual for the 625 and it looks like I will not be able to do that with the 625 hooked up to 2 TV's and still allow both TV's to work independently. Am I correct on that? If so, what are my other options?

Thanks!

Dave

Incorrect. With a 625 hooked up to 2 TVs (called Dual mode) the 625 can be "processing" up to 4 different video streams at the same time, as in recording 2 programs, and watching two other recorded programs at the same time.

Thanks, I will have to wait until it arrives and mess with it I guess. The manual does not explain that clearly to me. As long as it will do that I will be fine!
