Might be posted here, my R10 Directv with Tivo service died and of course DTV sent me their non tivo replacement r15 as they are no longer sending anyone a Tivo reciever as a replacement or for sale. I love my Tivo service and not hate what I have with DTV, I will find another reciever on Ebay or buy a real Tivo unit.
Yuk, I could not believe it their R15 unit was so basic (and slow) it could not handle setting up a same series recording on more then one channel. So you if you want to say record Mash or Scrubs or any series being aired on more then one channel, forget it.
They recommened using a manual recording to record it, daaaa, if its aired three times a day not contigous you'd need 3 seperate manual recodings for that one channel alone.
Software design 101...they missed it I guess. Back to TIVO for me.
Beware guys, Directv's own replacment for Tivo is NOT a step up from Tivo...it's a big big step backwards....
