I recently added a PVR to my home. (Personal Video Recorder) –essentially a computer that replaces your VCR by recording television to the hard drive. I use DirecTV satellite service and have 2 receivers. I have 2 televisions either ends of my home, of course. I'd very much like to have one receiver to run both TV's and have the PVR dedicated to it's own receiver. So, both receivers will then end up in the same room as the PVR. By putting all the audio and video in one area this opens up a multitude of options for the surveillance system and only needing one DVD player, etc.
The only problem that I have is controlling the channels of the dish, and the special functions that the remote provides. I could use a smart universal remote, but the learning curve for the lady isn't worth the earful I'd get, so using the receiver’s remote is a must. If the solution gets costly, my other option is just purchasing another receiver and leaving everything right where it is
