I had existing internet service that I bundled with TV. I have 3 TVs, 2 HD and 1 SD. I told the rep we wanted DVR functionality and she said no prob. We chatted and I came away thinking we'd be able to record from 2 TVs but watch recorded programs on any.
After the install I can record on either HD set, but the 3 stb are not sharing the recored content. Recording on HD TV1 can't be seen anywhere else. Recording on HD TV2 can also be seen by the SD TV.
Confused.
I'm fine with this setup, but I'd like to "pair" the SD stb with HD TV1 instead.

lets see... how about this.
dvr #1
dvr #2
sd box #3
Both dvr's #1 and #2 can pause/rw/ff live tv
sd box #3 cannot
If DVR #1 is the hub then #1 and #3 can share RECORDED shows #2 is out of the loop.
or
if DVR #2 is the hub, then #2 and #3 can share RECORDED shows and then #1 would be out of the loop.
#1 and #2 cannot share info at all.
THE ONLY THING THE SD BOX CAN PAUSE/FF/RW IS RECORDED PROGRAMS NOT LIVE

Thanks everyone for the info. I guess I was under the impression that we'd have a single dvr servicing 3 TVs. Two of which would be able to record/play/pause and the 3rd only able to playback recorded content.
If we have 2 DVRs, should the 2ndary SD TV be able to record/play/pause live TV?

Just to make that question a little clearer
If we have 2 DVRs, shouldn't the 2ndary SD TV be able to record/play/pause live TV on the multiroom (hub) dvr?
