What's the best way to use your DVR (or other home theater devices) from another room?
I'm looking to use my primary home theater's TiVo Premiere to play back video on a second TV set downstairs in the bedroom, and I've got hard ethernet, coax, and power as means of transit.
Originally I was just looking alternatives to the TiVo Preview (which, knowing TiVo, probably won't be available to consumers until sometime later in 2012 -- if we're really lucky) and TiVo MRV (I don't really want to pay for a second TiVo, plus service), but at the end of the day it's probably easier to just...

TiVo Premier switching issue?
When I switch from one of the TiVo menus to a recorded program, I get audio but no video. Powering off the receiver and turning it back on again solves the problem. Any ideas? Hardware issue, configuration, etc? This only happens with the TiVo and this receiver when connected over HDMI. If I connect directly to my TV via HDMI, problem doesn't happen. Further, it only seems to happen on recorded programs, not when watching live. Any suggestions? Thx Matt

Can Tivo Premiere Record two cable channels at once.
I see the Tivo Premier has one cable and one antenna coax connection. Tivo claims they can record two channels at once. On the DirecTV/Tivo's I've had that is achieved by two coax connections. So is this no longer an issue or can the premier record one channel from cable and one channel from the antenna at the same time?

Has anyone else had an issue with the TiVo iPad app being unable to find a TiVo Premiere box on the network? Things were working fine not too long ago, but I haven't used the app for a bit and after upgrading tonight (to version 1.0.4 build 1727) I keep getting an error: "This application is intended for use with TiVo Premiere boxes only.

This issue is being caused by the interaction between the MediaSmart Server ex495 and the Tivo. I can not determine how to remove the mediasmart expander tivo add in. it does not seem to be a traditional add-in. I am looking for help.

I have owned just about every Tivo product over the years. So I was excited when Tivo announced the new premiere unit. I purchased one right away.
The unit arrived and I make an appointment with the cable company to come out and install the required mutli-stream card. The cable company came to my house twice with only a single stream card. So after about a week and 3 or 4 phone calls I finally got the required card installed. The unit worked the first day. Then it stopped displaying a picture. After having the cable company out several more times and about 6 calls to Tivo support, I got the unit exchanged. Now the second unit is doing the...

Does anybody have any experience with the Premiere and downloading internet shows from Revision3?
How well does it work, this is pretty much going to be my final selling point if it works well. Thanks!
