Philips DSR6000R DIRECTV Receiver with TiVo Service
The perfect TiVo
I was fortunate to get one of the first of these boxes. Compared to the stand alone TiVo, setup is a breeze. It takes about 20 minutes. The stand-alone takes 3-5 hours. Picture quality is perfect since the integrated receiver records the bitstream directly off the satellite instead of it being decoded by a separate receiver and re-encoded by TiVo. The DSR6000R also is the first TiVo to ship with the 2.0 software, which has many new features, such as Season Pass manager, . This unit also features two DirecTV tuners, which will allow you to watch 1 channel while recording another, when the feature is enabled. This unit also allows you to choose from the DirecTV guide or the TiVo guide, whichever you prefer.<br />If you've been waiting, now is the time to jump in. This is the best TiVo unit yet.
