Accessing other DVR's from currently viewed DVR

[CEV]

We have 4 DVR's in the house. While I am watching in the living room, is it at all possible somehow to view things such as the To Do list on the other DVR's? This would be very beneficial.

Only with mrv (multi room viewing) enabled. It costs $3/month.

Yes, I have that. I can view what HAS been recorded, but how can I view the To Do list on the other receivers? Like what is going to be recorded in the future. If I need to double check if a show is going to be recorded, I don't want to have to run to the other room to pull up the menu. Or like if I set a recording to record on the box in the other room through the directv app on my tablet, I want to be sure 2 other shows are not already set to be recorded at the same time. Hope that makes sense.

Gotcha. I don't have mrv so I can't answer your questions, but I'll bet someone will help you out pretty quickly.

Nope, can't view To Do Lists of other DVRs even with MRV. Has to be one of the most requested features.

What recvrs are you using ?
Are you saying that you can't pull up the To Do list on the other recvrs ?

I too don't use MRV, but was wondering just the same.

Interesting, didn't know that.

I have to shuffle between my two HR24s every time to make sure stuff is recording on at least one of them. I always forget which one is in charge of which shows. It's definitely annoying when I'm settled and just want to double check.

Exactly what I am talking about. With technology today, I don't see why this hasn't been implemented yet.

You would hope that would be a easy software fix, but with all the newer stuff coming out, it may be awhile before they get to it.
I hate the fact that they will bring new stuff out before making the existing stuff solid.

Nope, can't be done. All you can see is the "List" of available recordings from all DVRs that you have set up to share.
