Re: Get a TiVo

If they're using the same company that Verizon does, why would it be like U-Verse? I would imagine it would operate much like Verizon's multi-room DVR (FiOS also uses MoCA). In which case you wouldn't be able to feed DVR to DVR. You'd feed from DVR to STB.

That's what U-Verse does. The problem is that none of the DVR features are usable on the STB, even in the most basic way. I really can't get why some enterprising company doesn't throw 512MB of RAM in an STB so limited trick play or a bathroom break pause is possible.

Or even easier, the ability to schedule DVR recordings from the STBs. Lacking that functionality is completely inexcusable.

It's wierdo, not weirdo. Yes, I know that's not the 'proper' spelling of the similar english language word.
