This is excellent news. The Directv HD DVR SUCKS!!!. Every so often the pixels go crazy and then you get some message about ’signal 271′ interference. And always when you record an HD program, it never works. Directv’s solution is to exchange it out for a refurbished one. All my other TIVO/Directv receivers are workhorses. I have no complaints regarding them.

I have 2 Tivos and 2 DTV dvr’s one HD. The one Tivo I have left I LOVE, but the other 2 DTV dvr and hd are sorry excuses for technology, and I hope that Directv does not make the mistake again to not include Tivo with their Dvr’s and Hd’s. WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

“remote booking” on your DirecTV TiVo (or your non-TiVo DirecTV DVR for that matter) can be done from directv.com even if your DVR is not networked. Just log in, navigate to the program listings, and click on the show you want to record. The listing expands and offers a Record to Receiver link. When you click there, you’ll get a choice of any DVR (TiVo or not) to record the show to.

This is news of the year for me (until Obama get elected, anyway.) My current directivos are aging badly, and I was on the cusp of converting to cable so I could continue to use Tivo. Now I can stick with Directv. I just hope they have some good upgrade deals when they roll out. Who am I kidding? They always screw existing customers with their deals, why would this be any different?

In readung the article, there is a note that TIVO upgraded the existing boxes to allow “remote booking.” I kow there was an upgrade to the “delete” and “undelete” features, but what remote booking are they talking about?? I can set my dvr’s to record over the internet, but not my tivos– can the DTIVOs somehow be networked now???? that would be something great. Can’t wait for the new HD Directivos! I have one HR10-250 left working– the others died and have been replaced with H21s
