DISH must be paying people, like via Mechanical Turk or something to enter comment spam all over the place.<br /><br />Anyway, DISH sucks, as if we didn't already know that - and they don't have TiVo anyway, so it's off topic to this thread too.Mr Blog Toohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17100863329579893220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1535751681808570119.post-26345455596380558422011-10-19T20:27:52.038-07:002011-10-19T20:27:52.038-07:00Well Dish TV doesn't have Sunday Ticket (and n...Well Dish TV doesn't have Sunday Ticket (and never will). The choice of channels on Dish is very limited. But if Dish got Sunday Ticket I might consider changing (if the have TIVO).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1535751681808570119.post-71208903468360112452011-03-10T10:15:19.345-08:002011-03-10T10:15:19.345-08:00One is a HDVR2 SD TiVo and the other is a HR10-250...One is a HDVR2 SD TiVo and the other is a HR10-250 HD TiVo - maybe it does let me record to them. Last time I tried, the app didn't allow me to pick those devices. <br /><br />I listed this as a plus in favor of the non-TiVo HR-series boxes so if we can setup recordings on the TiVos via the iPhone app too, that's one less advantage of the non-TiVo boxes.Mr Blog Toohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17100863329579893220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1535751681808570119.post-68198655787288523592011-03-10T10:00:29.866-08:002011-03-10T10:00:29.866-08:00"I can setup a recording on my iPhone on the ..."I can setup a recording on my iPhone on the HR-series.

I have an SD DirecTiVo and I can setup recordings using the DirecTV iPhone App just fine. My DirecTV TiVo is from 2003, so it's really old. How old must yours be to not have this functionality?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1535751681808570119.post-3319502435816292862011-03-10T06:49:51.396-08:002011-03-10T06:49:51.396-08:00Mr Blog Too - Fantastic post.

Thank God I kept the ol' HR10-250 in the living room for as long as I did. I totally agree with every word you posted!!!!<br /><br />I too was frustrated and finally gave up on DirecTV when the new TiVo Premiere units came out. Here's my story, in case you are thinking about giving up on them soon: http://j.mp/BuhByeDTVChrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08093821252809842168noreply@blogger.com
