DirecTV HD DVR Sucks
Like everybody else that has the DirecTV HD DVR I hate it. My DirecTivo is so much nicer. The DirecTV HD DVR menu system makes no sense, and it’s hard to find things you are looking for. The worst thing though it that is just misses things all the time, and you have to reboot it at least once a week or it will lock up and wont record anything either. As soon as DirecTV comes out with something better I am getting it. They made up with Tivo and they just recently bought Replay TV, so I am hoping they use one of them to improve their crappy DVR.
Over the weekend I downloaded an episode of Numb3rs that the crappy DVR missed. We watched it streaming to the XBox. The new upgrade to the XBox 360 is super cool. It played the the file no problem and looked really good. So then I installed Ted. Ted stands for torrent episode downloader. You can subscribe to shows and it will go out and look for new episodes and automatically downloads them. With Ted and the XBox 360, I might have a good work around for my crappy DVR. We will see how it works.
I agree the Directv HD HVR sucks.
Just got it, can’t stand it. it sucks monkey balls
I wonder , no make that pray Tivo releases a MPG4 receiver!
