tmaslanka,
I don't understand your statements - are you saying you are trying to use that Pioneer DVR with FiOS? If so, why? Or what?
Now, if you are talking about using one of the Verizon-provided Motorola DVRs, then you are doing something wrong, or the DVR is broken. You absolutely can (or should be able to) watch one channel and record another, or record two channels and watch something previously recorded, I do it all the time with my DVR. And there is (should be) absolutely no reason to leave your TV on; I turn mine off every night, and all works just fine. I do leave the DVR powered on, there just really isn't much if any reason to turn it off, it uses almost the same power when it is off vs. on, because all of the electronics and hard drive need to be powered on to make recordings, which it will do even if you power it off.
{no personal comments, please} If you would factually provide more detail of what you have equipment-wise, and how you have it hooked up (HDMI, component, etc), and the specific problems you are experiencing, I suspect someone here can help. There are folks here who have had FiOS TV for quite a while, with lots of experience, give them a chance to help. And I would be happy to try to help also, but with the info you provided I have no idea where to even think about starting...

I discovered the same problem with my Tivo. I LOVED my Tivo - it is far superior to the Verizon DVR, but when hooked up to Verizon it goes from a dual tuner to a single tuner (when the adapter is added, it won't even work without that). Unfortunately the kids are already in love with having the multiroom DVR function so I'm stuck.
I wish Verizon would study the Tivo and give their DVR the same functionality. I really hate this one!
