Solution for my Direct TV receiver and TiVo

This is a question from Carl

Hello Dave,

I currently have a direct tv receiver connected with a TIVO receiver. To change the channels of the direct TV receiver, the TIVO unit employs an IR connection. This connection is unreliable at times. I was looking for a direct TV receiver that would allow me to hook up the TIVO unit via a serial input in order to change the channels. My direct TV receiver does not have a serial input.

thank you

Carl

My Reply:

Carl, why don’t you get a TiVo that has the Directv Receiver built in. This way you would not need the connection. I think the price is $99.00 for existing customers and to get it you can call Directv Customer Service at 1-888-777-2454

Let me know if this helps or if you have more questions.
