Record more than 2 programs...

Is Verizon ever going to release a STB with the ability to record more than two programs at once?  I have two HD STBs sitting together and they handle my recordings.
However, the down side is that I don't have the ability to cross check shows across the two units.  And I really have to pick and choose carefully as I don't want to end up with a conflict.
If we could get a box that would do 4 recordings, then this would make life sooo much better!  Now, I have the power to schedule 4 shows at once on one unit and then I would only have to manage one receiver (STB).

As of right now Verizon does not plan on releasing DVR's with more than two turners in it.  The only new plan for a DVR upgrade is to increase the storage to 320 GB.  in the first quarter of 2010.

  • Record more than 2 programs at once

    Now that more and more providers offer the ability to record more than 2 programs at once, will Verizon be following suit?

    Wow.......how do you record more than 1 program?  I'd love to record 2 programs but don't see any directions on how to do this.
    Thanks for any help available.
    Just schedule one;  then schedule the second.  No special instructions needed. 
    Note:  When recording 2 programs at the same time, you will not be able to watch a third channel because the DVR only has two tuners.
    While not being able to watch a live TV show when recording 2 shows you can watch an already recorded show (third show).

  • I thought the NEW DVR's were supposed to be able to record more than 2 shows at 1 time

    I was told that the New DVR which is what i have, i guess its called a media center or something like that was supposed to record more than 2 shows simultaneously but found out last night that not to be true. I had 3 scheduled and 1 of them did not record.
    its next to impossible to make 1 show record at a later time, in the instance of a series because you would have to allow it to record 1st run and repeats. I don't want it to record older previous episodes. If I set it at only 1st run it would skip the later time becaue it is no longer 1st run it is now a repeat.
    there needs to be a better option available for series or truly allow to record more than 2 shows at a time.

    If the media server you have (Arris VMS1100) is only recording 2 shows at once then you aren't signed up for enhanced service which does cost more per month.
    All new customers are getting the VMS boxes however you have to add the correct service to be able to record 6 shows at once. If you don't have enhanced then Verizon limits the box to be able to only use 2 tuners.
    If you want the 6 tuner option you have to upgrade through your account online or call them for them to add the enhanced service.
    I don't know if thats what you wanted and did order it and Verizon didn't configure your account correctly or not, but thats how it works.
    If you want to have 6 tuners and want to add the enhanced service all you have to do is this unless you'd prefer to call.
    Sign into your account online and go to add/change service. Once you are on the add/upgrade my services pages, on the left click on tv equipment & outlets. You should then see an option to add the enhanced service on it. If it is not there then you will have to call.

  • How to keep the Recent Call Record more than a week?

    How to keep the Recent Call Record more than a week? I found the iPhone only can keep the Recent Call Record for only a week.

    I have to disagree with your response with respect. My i phone is limiting me to call going back only 7 days ie today is 29 July and my call log will only go back to 22 July. I have only 40 calls logged for that period. I cannot view up to the 100 you mention. I have included all calls for a single caller as well ie one caller shows 7 so ive counted that as 7 calls. There appears no way to set up to 100 in the settings
    Thanks

  • Whatapp can't record more than 10 seconds?

    Why my whatapp can't record more than 10seconds on my iPhone 5s 16gb?

    That would probably be a question best asked of Whatsapp support.

  • Cheap way to record more than 12 tracks?

    Hi all!
    I´m looking for a lo-cost solution to record more than 12 tracks simultaneously. While 12 tracks is enough for most of my projects, I do some occasional live gig recordings where I take the feed from FOH mixing desk direct outs to my M-Audio FW1814 interface. More often than not 12 tracks is not enough so I am forced to leave out some channels, which I hate to do.
    However I don´t want to pay the extra cash for Logic Pro, since outside the track number restriction, the features of LE are more than sufficent for my needs.
    So I am thinking of using some other multi-track software for live recordimg and then exporting the tracks to LE for editing and mixing.
    Audacity claims to support up to 16 simultaneous tracks, but I haven´t been able to achieve that. I could be doing something wrong, since the documentation doesn´t really shed any light on the subject. Does anyone here use Audacity for multi-track recording?
    Any other alternatives? Keep in mind that I don´t really need any fancy features outside the recording itself.

    what version of LE are you using?
    i think that version 7.2 up'd the simultaneous IO of
    LE.
    I don´t think so. I browsed through the "New features in LE 7.2" document ( http://manuals.info.apple.com/en/NewFeatures_in_Logic_Express7.2.pdf )and didn´t find any mention about i/o. I´m using 7.1.1 or whatever the last update for 7.1 was.
    As NoEQ has mentioned M-Powered Pro Tools is at your
    disposal. If you search the internet you can find
    the academic version (included the dv toolkit) for
    $150 dollars.
    The problem is that I live in Finland and I doubt there´s any academic versions for sale here. And 150$ is still a bit much for me. This gig recording thing is really just a hobby for me, so I don´t want to put too much money (which I dont have anyway...) in it.
    you could just as easily send some of the tracks off
    the board to a bus and then record a sum of the bus
    and some out of the direct outs.
    Yeah, I´ve done that couple of times and it usually works fine, to be honest. But it is still a bit frustrating to not have the whole capacity of my hardware in my disposal, just because of an artificial software restriction.
    But thanks to everyone that have participated in this thread. I´m still considering my problem unsolved, so feel free to chime in.

  • Record more than 2 shows

    Does Verizon Fios intend to compete with AT&T U-verse and upgrade the recording capability to include more than 2 shows at a time (and if so, when)?  I often have to watch tv on one of the smaller televisions because I'm recording 2 shows on the main multi-media dvr in the living room.

    I can't answer your question ... but how about moving the Home DVR to another TV instead that's not used as often?   Record the two shows there and watch a third on the main TV.   You can then watch the recorded shows via the IP home media connection later -- yes, I know you can't program/delete the shows in that manner from the main TV, but just looking for a way to solve your problem with the technology that's presently deployed.

  • How to RECORD more than ONE TRACK at a time ? ? ?

    I have looked, read and tried - but cannot enable more than one track at a time... How do you do it?
    I am using a Lexicon Omega USB interface. With two mics plugged in to it, I am able to assign MIC 1 to a track, and MIC 2 onto a different track. However, cannot get BOTH tracks to go "live" at the same time.
    Thanx: Stacey

    "basic track" is a short cut. whenever i explain something to someone recording an audio instrument i always tell them to create s New Basic Track. it's simple, to the point, has no effects on it (and you can add those later, anyway, the BEST way to do it)
    however, either would not cause the issues you're dealing with at the moment, both are valid. Basic just skips a step.

  • HOW TO SAVE RECORDS MORE THAN ONE AT A TIME

    i have two blocks lov_name and lov_values
    lov_name contains
    lov_id(pk)sequence generated

    lov_id(fk)
    lov_values_id(pk) sequence generated
    lov_values

    insert into lov_values values(v_lov_id,v_lov_val_id,:lov_values.lov_values);
    clear_record;
    commit;
    end;
    could you help me with the code to save more than one record at a time

  • Can't record more than 71:16 of audio in any session

    Thanks ahead of time for your help.
    When I open a new session, arm an audio track and start recording, Logic Pro inform me that I have 71:15 left of recording space. I have more than 80gig free on my recording drive. Once I run out those 71:15 of recording, I can't record any more audio in that track. Arming the track and pressing record makes the computer try to record, but then something happens (a window flashes faster than I can read it) and the session is simply put into play at the insertion point. I have turned of the maximum recording time, and I've also tried setting it to 500 minutes.
    Help please...

    hi
    the track end marker for future reference can be found in two places:
    1. scroll to the end of the arrange page (horizontally). at the top of the screen is the time ruler - you should see a small white box. on the left the numbers are in white and to the right the numbers are greyed out because that's where logic will stop recording. drag the marker to the right and the number of bars in the arrange page will increase.
    2. in the transport, below the tempo display is a number - this represents the bar where logic will play upto. Cick, hold and drag up or down to increase/decrease it.
    Hope that helps

  • Can't record more than 2 minutes

    Hi,
    I'm trying to record from a minidisc to garageband to then convert to mp3. For some reason, garageband won't record for more than 2 minutes when I need it to record for 2 hours! Please does anyone have any ideas? I'm in a rush to get this done but can't seem to solve the problem.
    Thank you in advance.

    I'm about to try again, but the last couple of times I tried, the red light in the record button was no longer read, there still seemed to be something scrolling (sorry for lack of technical terms), but no information recorded. Scrolling back, I could see that the red block (recorded data) had stopped at 2 mins.
    Any ideas? Thanks for your help.

  • Recording more than 2 tracks?

    I bought Logic Express 8 and an M-Audio Fast Track Ultra interface to record keyboard, vocal and guitar. The Fast Track Ultra is a 4 channel USB interface.
    I just tried to record the keyboard in stereo, and a vocal track at the same time. The problem is, I don't seem to be able to record into more than two input channels at one time, and the stereo keyboard is taking up both. Does Logic Express 8 have more than 2 inputs? The salesman at Sam Ash told me I could do this, but I can't find a way to create more than two input channels - which will totally negate the point of having a 4 channel interface.
    Help! I'm VERY frustrated.
    thanks

    Hi,
    I'm not an expert on audio interfaces, but you should check a couple of things:
    - go to ...Applications:Utilities:Audio/Midi Configuration and set you interface as the standard audio input and output
    - in Logic, go to Preferences > Audio, and choose your interface under Devices > Core Audio > Device (see the picture on page 99 of Help > Logic Express 8 User Manual)
    - Choose the appropriate inputs in your Audio Tracks by clicking-holding on the Input Select button of your Channel Strip (see the picture on page 216 of the manual; it's the button that says "Input 1-2"). You should have more choice than just 1-2 there...

  • Script logic record more than 300,000 record

    Hi Expert,
    When I run my logic I have error in my formula log:
    (More than 300,000 records. Details are not being logged)
    Ignoring Status
    Posting ok
    I check my script it pull out total 422076 records.
    Is it meaning I cannot More than 300,000 records??
    Is there any where I can set MAX records I can generate for my single script to run??
    Thanks..

    You should use
    *XDIM_MAXMEMBERS dimension = numberOfMembers to be processed at a time
    For example
    *XDIM_MAXMEMBERS Entity = 50
    Figure out wich dimension has the most members, and use it, this sections you script logic.
    I hope that helps

  • Recording more than 8 simultaneous tracks.

    Hello!
    Running GarageBand '08 and have two, linked Presonus Firepods. I can select which inputs i want on my Input list on the details tab. All 20 of my available inputs show up and are selectable.
    However, when I try to enable more than 8 tracks at a time (i'm gonna record drums)... After i reach 8 and try to click on 9, the first disables in order for the 9th to enable... 2/10... 3/11...
    I've told it to let me have 16 max. tracks in the preferences but that doesnt seem to work.
    any ideas??

  • Recording more than one audio region on the same track

    When I record my audio, i set up one track, with loads of plugins to record my main vocals on. If i want more than one vocal sample to play together with the same eq, ill put them both on the same track but Logic wont allow this and will play the latest entering region and suddenly cut off the other one. Can anyone provide me with a solution as to how to deal with this? Thanks

    copy your performance to a new audio track
    in the channel strip of the original, you can copy the channel strip settings from the pull down menu and paste them into the new tracks channel strip
