Popup for DVR Selection when recording

Status: Acknowledged
by FrankWyman on ‎09-19-2012 05:27 AM

I have Three DVR's. When I have two shows recording on a DVR I'm forced to pack up my popcorn and move to another room to watch TV. I'd like a popup so that I can select a DVR in a less used room when I schedule a recording. Multi-Room Playback of recorded items works great, but Multi-Room Recording needs some managment options.

When I'm searching for a program to record on a TV that is connected to a DVR.  I should be able to record the series on one of the other DVRs in my house.  If I'm on a regular set top box and set to record, it asks me which DVR to record it on.  But this option is not available if I'm already on a DVR.  Also the delay is terrible with the DVRs.  Its worse if you have an external HDD connected.

Eureka! - Thanks for tip. I've downgraded my primary STB DVR to a regular STB. Now all my recording requests prompt me to select the remote DVR to store the recording. I've lost the ability to pause/rewind live broadcasts, but most everything that I view are shows/movies that I've recorded anyway. THANKS!

I would very much like to be able to pick the DVR that I want to record a program on as an option from any DVR in the house including the ability to record a series on a different DVR than the one you are using.  i.e. I would like to record a series on the living room DVR while I am watching the Den DVR.
