I hate this POS (R15)
I hate this POS (R15) <br /> <br />I Bought the R15 and was told it will be different from my HUGHES SD40 TIVO.  Boy they are right!! <br /> <br />The R15 is the worse POS I have ever bought.  The system freeze and I have to reboot 3 to 4 times a day.  One would think I have a defective unit, I sent this unit back to DIRECTV and they replaced it for another.  Does the same thing!!  I guess when the hard drive gets past 50% this is what happens.  <br /> <br />The unit doesn't record when you go back and forth on 2 channels like the TIVO did.  When you record series you can not record the same program on 2 channels. <br /> <br />I had to buy a refurbished Huges from e-bay I hated this so much.   <br /> <br />Bottom line, don't buy, lease or plug in the R15. <br />
