Watch what you want, when you want, where you want.

  • Beta Testing Phase

    The ultimate in convenience and flexibility.

    Watch what you want, when you want, in any room you want. With just one HD DVR, you can watch your recorded shows on any TV in your house that's connected to an HD receiver. But that's just the beginning. You can also:
    • Start watching a recorded show in one room and continue watching it where you left off in another room
    • Record and delete shows from any TV connected to an HD receiver, not just the one connected to the HD DVR
    • Record two shows at once, while watching two different shows in separate rooms
    • Set separate parental controls for each TV


    If you have more than one HD DVR, the DIRECTV Multi-Room HD DVR service keeps things simple by showing you a single, combined playlist of all your recorded programs on any connected TV.
  • Beta Testing Phase

    Please note the DIRECTV Multi-Room HD DVR service is currently in its beta testing phase. During this beta phase, the service will be offered at no charge. Once the service is out of beta and has launched nationally there will be a monthly service fee for the service.

    Please do not purchase any additional receivers to participate in this beta trial. If your existing receivers are not currently networked please do not network them to participate in the beta testing phase. Once the service launches nationally there will be a special offer available to take advantage of the service.
  • What do I need for Multi-Room HD DVR service to work?

    You need an HD DVR* (models HR20-23) and at least one compatible HD receiver (models H21-23) that are already networked, along with HD Access and DVR service.

    If you have any questions about the beta Multi-Room HD DVR service, check out forums.directv.com to get help from other DIRECTV customers. Note that DIRECTV Customer Care is not currently supporting this service, please do not call DIRECTV for assistance.
