Hello all ...
Came across this great site recently while searching for info on DIRECTV, which I'm having installed on 12/8. Gonna try to learn as much as I can between now and then.

Hi! I have joined this forum to learn about methods for enhancing my VIP622DVR. I am seeing information about an external dirve capability and this is very interesting. I would be interested in having a drive that I could shuffle between the DVR and my PC with the capability to archive files to DVD-RW and build a library.
Please point me in the right direction, I think the answer is in this forum. Glad to be on board with fellow "envelope strechers".

Hi, everyone. Currently fed up with cable and investigating options. This looks like a great resource.

Hello. I am a recent convert to Comcast HD and have joined to keep up on news. I must admit to having been a devout fan of DIRECTV with Tivo, but events have conspired to wean me away. First, an unsolvable tree problem kept us from getting HD through DIRECTV. I can "see" the satellite at 101 degrees with the old 18" SD dish, but that's it. So I added Comcast HD and have been happy with the HD picture.

It was my plan to use the pricey Tivo Series 3 with Comcast, but numerous efforts to get the Motorola "M" cable cards to work all failed. I am sure that Comcast has little interest in getting Tivo to work in place of their HD DVR. Tivo swears that the M cards will work, but I got tired of being in the middle between the two companies.

Anyway, I'm adapting to the Motorola receiver and remote. Two of the hints on this board have been very helpful: how to program in the 30 second skip and how to "lock" the volume control on the remote to the audio system rather than the TV.
