Sorry I didn't respond sooner, I was out of town. That's why I resisted getting the Genie before because I knew it would obligate me to stay with Directv for two years. I've been reading a lot about NFL Sunday Ticket and what it means to Directv. They say that Directv would lose 2 million subscribers if that was the case and they can't foresee that happening. I often see movies I want listed but like at 2am, so I've been wanting a DVR for quite sometime, and went with the flow. It's better than I've ever thought.

The poster that said they had problems with Directv reception and their DVR, do you have the Genie? When I go to search and find a movie listed 'Ondemand" and it has to be recorded, in most cases that only takes my unit about 30 seconds and then the movie begins. I've had no problems like the ones you mentioned. You need to do some troubleshooting before hanging up your service. Definitely call customer service, they are the best ever and have a tech come to the house. Are you paying the $5.99 per month for maintenance? It is well worth it.
