Using Multi-room DVR
This article gives you an overview of Multi-room DVR. Multi-room DVR is a service for Digital TV subscribers that lets you watch your recorded shows on multiple TVs in your home.
With Multi-room DVR:
- People in your household can watch up to three recordings at the same time on connected TVs in your home.
- You can start watching a show in one room, stop it, and then continue from where you left off in another room.
- You can control playback of your recordings on any connected TV.
Keep in mind that you can watch recordings on a connected TV but you can’t set, schedule, or manage recordings from it. Use your primary TV (the TV that's connected to your DVR) to set, schedule, and manage your recordings.
