Since getting a DVR all my TV viewing habits changed.
I am no long subjected to broadcasting schedules and free to choose my own time. I can fast forward commercials, and the best thing is that there is always something to see 🙂

I figured out how to record a program, but guess what I can’t figure out how to watch the program I recorded. I notice your instructions show how to set up a program to be recorded, but it does not say how to play it back. Guess what the large booklet doesn’t say either. I’m sure it’s in there, but where? It should say how to play a recorded program back in the table of contents, but it does not. I am in tears over this, I have a headache searching the book, and I hate Dish satellite because of this.

It was great with DirectTV, I never even had an instruction booklet, it was that easy to use. Even setting up programs to record was much easier, there is two extra stupid steps just to record even. But this is unbelievable to not say how to watch it back, and now what you typed doesn’t either. Thanks for nothing.

How do you switch recording on DVR 2 to DVR 1? Some things I record go to 1 and some to 2. It doesn’t seem to mattter if anything else is scheduled, it is just random.
