FIOS TV Multi Room DVR Video On Demand errors

I recently activated FIOS TV (already had FIOS Internet and Freedom phone) and received 5 STBs (1-QIP7216-1 DVR, two HD STBs a second HD DVR (QIP-6400 and a standard def STB) connected via COAX (MoCA) to an Actiontec Gen2 wireless router. Since the TV service install 1 month ago I have been on the phone with FIOS tech support at least a dozen times trying to resolve intermitent internet connectivity problems and most recently issues with FIOS TV features (i.e. Video on demand and multi-room DVR configurations). The Video on Demand issues would manifest as VOD_6 (request timeouts). Each time I worked with tech support to reset the router, power off the STB, etc and sometimes the VOD service would activate.
Last week VOD failed again and the FIOS tech I spoke to was havnig difficulties remotely connecting to my STBs (a common situation from previous tech support calls). He dispatched a technician to visit my home to check DB levels for each of my STBs. The field tech arrived two days ago and brought a new QIP7216-1 and a new router. It took over an hour for him to get them working even with help from remote support (they couldn't "see" the STBs). Once they were able to flush out the issues, he departed but unfortunately he left without enabling the multi-room DVR functionality. I called FIOS support yesterday and the remote technician had significant difficulties getting the "system" to recognize my configuration and he eventually broke off our call so he could escalate to Video support. He called me back hours later once he felt that they had resolved all the configuration issues and when I checked everything seemed to be working.
This morning I tried to program my DVD from my Verizon cellphone (this was working last week) and the DVR displayed a message that my account was not authorized. I called into FIOS support and the automated service attempted repair which included a "reload" of the STB firmware. Once the automated system felt I should be able to continue I noticed that the Video on Demand error VOD_5 happened when I tried to select it and now the option for Remote DVR programming is nolonger available on any menu!
I called back to tech support and the technician had me unplug and restart the STB but he was having issues remotely accessing the STB. He broke off the call explaining that he needed to escalate to Video Networking specialists and I'm awaiting his call back.
I am wondering if my experience is common and whether someone else has encountered (and resolved) these frustrating issues. I can't believe that Verizon expects users to have to re-boot routers and STBs anytime a feature is accessed. Hopefully one of the Verizon employees who monitor these forums can see some commonality and suggest a course of action that will bring relief. I have spent more hours troubleshooting my configuration than I've enjoyed the entertainment offerings, Please help!

Hi gr8scot,
Since my original post I can attest that I've made it through 2 weeks without any error messages or unavailable features (fingers and toes crossed) . I can identify with your frustration and hope that once they exorcise the demons from your configuration (if you hang on) it seems that eventually the solution stabilizes.
In my case I found some help by contacting the Verizon Customer Relations team at 800-483-7988. Once I got these folks engaged I can say that my blood pressure returned to lower levels as they were in daily communications with me until I was satisfied that my issues were resolved.
It's unfortunate that it had to get to that point for me (and for you too) but it was fairly apparent that something about my equipment configuration was confused within the Verizon FIOS provisioning applications (my issues seem to have developed around the time of any equipment or service changes). I spoke to some very dedicated and personable FIOS tech support agents (unfortunately I actually got to know them very well after spending hours on the phone). It was clear to me that they were doing the best that they could and the issues were way above their toolset and my big beef was the lack of communication that happened once the first level folks had to pass the problem off to either the "network group" or the developers.
Good luck and hope we both can eventually get to enjoy our entertainment systems.

New to FIOS TV Multi-room DVR - Should I be able to use DVR functions from the other HD STBs?

We just converted from Directv (three DVRs) to FIOS TV and am hoping I didn't make a huge mistake: The sales agent I spoke to said that the Multi-room DVR (Motorola QIP-7216-1) and non-DVR STB would enable me to get the same features I had with my Directv setup so each user could Stop/Start/Record programming from their own remote. Unless I'm doing something wrong, I can only perform DVR control functions from the real DVR. I can view recorded programming on the non-DVR STBs but pressing record for a live broadcast or trying to select a show to record from the guide doesn't work.
I have the ActiontecGen2 MOCA connected MI424WR router, three HD STBs (Motorola 7000), one standard definition STB and the DVR.

As you've found, you can only create recordings from the DVR. If you want each room to have the ability to schedule recordings, then you need a separate DVR in each room.
The FiOS Motorola DVRs cannot access recordings stored on other DVRs.

FIOS TV Multi Room DVR

Has anyone else been hung up on after - 10/24 my main tv screen goes blank and they send a replacement box - 10/29 upon return from business trip I learn that new box dropped all 27 hours of recorded programming and reflects no shows to record - this is contrary to the Represenation when I signed up in June - i was told multi room DVR would store this information if a box needed replacement - I plugged old box back in and informed technical support and billing that once i watched the 27 hours of recorded prorgammming I would leave if they would not give me two months free - Billing supervisor HUNG UP ON ME MID SENTENCE - I sat down for dinner after 60 minutes on the phone
when I turned TV back on screen is blank but I get sound - this was problem causing my wife to ask for new box - shipped 10/24
new technical support person said my blank screen meant my box was dead, duh that is why they sent new box in first place - new billing person offered me one day credit as it was first time I compained box was not working - she had no record of Oct 24 shipment of new box - Supervisor asked why I disconnected last call - Customer Retention Department in DC closes at 9pm - how ironic, I am offered direct line to call them in the AM between 8am and 9pm. - there is no way to get Customer Retention to actually speak with a customer directly about retaining them, the onus is on the customer to be retained.
Veriszon customer service is an oxymoron...

Multi-Room DVR Questions - switching to Fios

I am getting ready to make the switch to Verizon Fios and have lots of questions.
I am going to get a Multi-Room DVR and either 2 or 3 set-top boxes.
I have 4 tv's: A -Main (Living room) TV is STD-Def, B - Bedroom TV is Hi-Def 1080p, C - Bedroom TV is 720P, D - Other TV - STD Def .
1. Does it matter which TV I hook up the Multi-Room DVR to?
2. Can I record in STD-Def and then play back on the Hi-Def TV?
3. Can I record in Hi-Def and and then play back on the STD-Def TV?
4. Are the STB's the same for STD-Def and HD (in case I want to swich where I have the DVR)?
4a. If not, is ther a charge if I change the box from STD to HD?
5. Will I be able to watch any channels on a TV that has no STB or DVR?
6. What DVR functions are available on the STB's?
Play, Pause, FF, Rew? What about controlling the recording of shows?
9. Is there a "higher capacity" Multi-room DVR, and how do I get one?
7. What is the capacity of the multi-room DVR?
8. Can I add an external hard drive?
Thanks in advance for your help.

1. Does it matter which TV I hook up the Multi-Room DVR to? No it does not.
2. Can I record in STD-Def and then play back on the Hi-Def TV? Yes
3. Can I record in Hi-Def and and then play back on the STD-Def TV? Yes but will be in a smaller box in the middle of the screen
4. Are the STB's the same for STD-Def and HD (in case I want to swich where I have the DVR)? Verizon only uses HD boxes now and will work with SD televisions. Verizon used to have SD boxes and last time I checked still had the basic SD terminal adapters -- these adapters do not support the guide or other expanding STB features including remote DVR access or on-Demand.
4a. If not, is ther a charge if I change the box from STD to HD? N/A
5. Will I be able to watch any channels on a TV that has no STB or DVR? If your TV has a QAM digital tuner you can watch the local stations only (channels 2-49)
6. What DVR functions are available on the STB's? You can pause and rewind live TV. You can set up a schedule to record all your favorite shows in advance so you don't have to set it back up every week. You can extend recording at the begining or end of show. You can set priority of shows incase there is a scheduling conflict. You can set a show to be protected so its only erased if you manually erase it. You can set how many episodes to keep. You can set whether to record either new episodes, repeats, or both. Pause and rewind live TV feature is on the DVR box only, not on the other STB's. You can pause and rewind DVR playback on these other boxes, but not live TV. Note also that you need to be in an area which has the newer IMG 1.9 to be able to setup recordings from remote STB's and/or extend a recording as these are new features in IMG 1.9.
9. Is there a "higher capacity" Multi-room DVR, and how do I get one? If you are not provided one at installation (depends if they are in stock or not) it can be ordered from out htttp://verizon.com/fiostvcentral website
It costs an additional $40 to order a 500 GB DVR if one is not provided at time of installation. I would hold out for one at that time so you don't have to pay the $40. You may be able to forgo the $40 upcharge if you can take your 160 GB DVR to a Verizon store and exchange it there (it they have the 500 GB DVR to exchange). I would ask for the 500GB DVR at installation and make sure they can provide it before accepting it.
7. What is the capacity of the multi-room DVR? 160gb for existing DVR 500gb for expanded DVR
8. Can I add an external hard drive? The set top boxes running IMG 1.9 have this capability. 1.9 is still in its initial stages of deployment and not in most areas.
I hope this answers your questions you had.

Multi-Room DVR can't play recordings properly

Wondering if anyone else has this problem, or knows of a solution.
I have Multi-Room DVR. In the past, my biggest problem with it was that recordings would occasionally freeze when played on a remote box (i.e. not the main DVR box). I would have to reset the system and try to get past the moment in the recording that was causing the error. The key discovery was that the recording would play fine on the DVR itself, so the problem had something to do with the communication between the DVR and the remote box. It's as if there was an error in the recording that the DVR knew how to resolve during playback but the remote box didn't.
Now I'm having a new but similar problem. Recording plays fine on the DVR itself. On the remote box, when I hit a specific moment in the recording, it freezes for a second, then continues but th picture becomes pixelated. To imagine the picture, draw a horizontal line halfway up the picture. Everything above that line is fine. Below it, the right half of the image is now on the left and vice versa. Plus random pixelation. Also the sound becomes "pixelated" in the sense that it turns into a mess of beeps and stutters.
Once this happens during the recording, it continues until the end.
I know the recording itself is fine because the main DVR box can play it without error.
I talked to a tech. He reset the boxes and checked the connection levels. Everything seems fine. His advice was to monitor it, and if it happens again, they'll have to replace everything.
Anyone with a similar problem? Was it resolved by changing the boxes out?

Hello,
I would suggest the following:
From the non-DVR STB that has the pixelated recordings, try following troubleshooting steps:
Menu -- Customer Support -- In Home Agent -- Reboot STB
Menu -- Customer Support -- In Home Agent -- Set Top Box Auto-Correction
Also, if the problematic STB is a Motorola 6000 series, I'd recommend replacing it with a newer model.
Moreover, try the autocorrection technique for the MRDVR (if the above two are confirmed OK) via the remote.
Menu -- Customer Support -- In Home Agent -- Autofix MRDVR Issues
or DVR -- Autofix MRDVR Issues
If all else fails, contact Verizon's Technical Support at 1-888-553-1555.
By the way, if you have questions on your account or need to switch out equipment and there is a Verizon FiOS store in your area, then they can help you. You can give them a call; contacting the VZ FiOS store might be less time consuming than calling the 800 number for Customer Service. For technical-related matters, though, they'll connect you right through to Technical Support.
Here is a list of Verizon FiOS stores:
http://www22.verizon.com/Support/Residential/tv/fiostv/General+Support/Account+Issues/QuestionsOne/8...
Lastly, if the TV show is a fairly popular, the recorded episode might be available ON DEMAND via "Free & Premium" -- TV Shows --- By Network (find network name alphabetically) from the "On Demand" on the TV Remote.
Good luck!

Multi-room DVR and DVR

I recently added a multi-room dvr to my FIOS package along with the current DVR I have had since original installation. It doesn't seem they can share recordings between them. They are acting like DVRs, but tried a few combinatoins of recording and neither one sees recordings from the other. Is this a problem with my installation or configuration, or do I need a STB instead of a DVR to use multi-room DVR?
Thanks,

When you get the new IMG 1.9a update you will be able to share. Earlier versions do not support DVR to DVR streaming.

Why isn't there an option to record future shows using the HD box linked to a Multi room DVR setup?

I have a multi room DVR in my livingroom and HD boxes in my 2 bedrooms. Currently if you are viewing a program on one of the HD boxes you are able to record the live program you are viewing as the HD box will enable your DVR to record that show.
Why hasn't FIOS enabled the settop boxes that are part of a multi room DVR setup to be able to record future shows? Needless to say, if I am lying in bed at night and see something in the program guide airing at a future date I really don't want to get out of bed and walk to the living room, turn on the TV and DVR and then program that new recording.
If I have missed something and you can do this please let me know. Otherwise FIOS should add this to their customer's wish list and enable recording for future times on the HD boxes that are part of your multi room DVR system!

You can already do that. Highlight the show in the guide and press the record button. You should get a pop up with the option to Set Reminder or Record on your DVR. If it doesn't check your DVR to ensure that availability is extended to the STB you are using.

Why can't I get a straight answer re: Multi Room DVR and HD Boxes

A rep that I spoke w/ on the phone and the website tells me that the HD set top boxes are not compatiable w/ the Multi Room DVR. But they are working on it. A rep I chatted w/ today told me they definitely WILL work together. Why can't I get a straight answer?? And what IS the correct answer? I want to switch to FIOS and I really like the Multi Room DVR option, but I don't want my 1 of my 2 main TVs to be w/o HD. And since the Multi Room Box is HD why wouldn't it be compatiable w/ the HD boxes??
Does anyone know what's going on w/ this?? Thanks!

Joe01880,
And that info is out of date, whether it is on Verizon's website or not. If you have the latest level of the IMG (1.6), then, as confirmed one post above yours, that the HD STB is now supported, and works. This has been posted in multiple posts on multiple forums, so I believe that it is accurate. But I do not have the 1.6 level so I cannot confirm that personally, I can only repeat what other posters in this and other forums have said. For example:

2 dvrs or single multi room dvr???

i currently have one DVR set up for multi room $19.99 and one standardt STB $4.99. My wife tapes tons of standard programs and watches them all in the bedroom on the STB (non HD TV there). This of course limits what i can watch on the good HD DVR in the family room on the HDTV. I'm thinking of upgrading the HD DVR to the new 500gb (black one) to take advantage of the new IMG and getting a second DVR for my wife in the bedroom, unless there is something i'm not doing right or something in the new IMG to enable the multi room DVR to allow me to watch programs on the HD DVR while two others are recording? if I do the 2 DVR set up (one standard and one HD) whats this cost?

Verizon doesn't distribute SD boxes any more ... just HD DVR, HD STB, and a digital adapter (which is SD but doesn't have the guide or the ability to do on demand or multiroom DVR). You can use an HD box with an SD TV.
Anyhow to your question ... it's one of preference. The 7232 500GB DVR can be run in multiroom DVR allowing you to watch one channel and record another while someone else is watching a DVR program, or record two channels and watch one on the local TV (and I believe also one on a remote STB).
Difference with two DVR's is the ability to record 4 shows simultaneously (and still be watching two from the DVR's) vs the single setup which is record 2 shows and watch one on each TV.
So, for two DVR's, I believe it's 14.99 each.
For one DVR multi-room and your current SD box $19.99 and $4.99
For one DVR multi-room and an SD box $19.99 and $9.99 (although at one point verizon had a DVR bundle which dropped the latter to $7.99).
Another option ... and this is what I'm doing in my house with 4 STB's is 2 DVR's and 2 HD STB's with multi-hub enabled (multi-hub is basically multiroom with the new 1.9a IMG which makes all DVR's accessible from any box). Cost $19.99 for the first DVR, two HD STB's roughly $6 each (DVR bundled discount), and a regular DVR at $14.99. In your scenario with two DVR's -- $19.99 and $14.99 and you have the best of both worlds.
Recommendation -- one HD DVR multiroom and one HD STB bundled unless you need more the two tuners.

Multi Room DVR Problem

Recently had FIOS TV installed and all was working fine until last night. We have the multi-room DVR and have 3 other HD boxes that were able to access the DVR.
Last night, one of the three HD boxes gave me an error when I tried to access the DVR and said it could not access the DVR.
I unplugged both the DVR and the HD box. Now, not only cannot I not access the DVR, the TV guide also does not work (i.e. does not give me any listings, just that info is not available) and also no access on VOD.
Any ideas?

Is your internet connection working? The router is what provides guide information to the TVs over the coax cable using MOCA. It sounds like you might have lost your MOCA signal.

Multi-Room DVR and HD DVR?

Is it possible yet to have a multi-room DVR and an HD-DVR? I want to have my downstairs DVR be the multi-room DVR and be able to watch the shows that I record upstairs on that DVR in addition to the shows recorded downstairs. It seems I can never get a correct answer from Verizon sales until AFTER I attempt to do this and they send me the equipment! Twice now they told me it could be done, send me out a new box(no idea why when it is a software upgrade) and then when it does not work I call and tell them and they say it can not be done. I always tell them that I have 2 DVR's already and give my example. Today was the second time this happened and they sent me the older 6416 box when I had the 7 series. I hope this can be done soon or better yet they start putting bigger hard drives into the DVR's!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I have been asking the same question for some time (since 12/2009) and get a reply of "sorry for the inconvenience". What kind of an answer is that? I have three HD set top boxes ... One is standard (no DVR), one is HD DVR, and one is a HOME Media DVR (multi room DVR). I would like to strongly suggest to VZ sales/management for FIOS TV, that VZ consider the development of a feature to allow all set top boxes to view all programs recorded on all DVRs regardless of type of DVR. Presently, only the standard HD can view the programs on the Home Media DVR. Standard HD STB cannot see the recorded programs on the HD DVR. The DVRs cannot see each others recorded programs.

New HD Multi Room DVR Issues (AV Syncing & DVR Error Message)

I recently upgraded our Multi Room DVR to the new HD compatible box. To date, we have had no problems with our Samsung which is hooked up to the primary DVR in our Family Room, the issue is with our 20" LG in the bedroom, which is hooked up to the new box.
The issues are:
1. Audio/Video Syncing - After watching a live program for a while the AV syncing becomes an issue. I find this mainly on HD channels, but it will also happen on the non HD channels as well.
2. 'No DVR Signal' - When watching a recorded HD program on the new box, we have gotten the a communication error message toward the end of the show. The only choice that the message gives us is to select OK, which stops the recording and takes us back to the main playback menu. When we try and fast forward to the part of the show where we got the message, the picture freezes and we can not watch any longer.
I have talked with Verizon and, initially, I thought that it was an issue with the activation since it happened the first night that we got the box, however, it has now happened twice in the same week.
I will say that we did not have this issue with the standard STB Multi Room DVR, it worked fine.
Sorry, if this issue has been discussed already...

1) I have not seen or heard about this issue yet.
2) This is a knows issue and they have a fix that will be rolled out on image 1.7 on the STB. And that should be out in the next few weeks.
Hey Thanks Tim for the update. The "Unable to Locate Hub" nag is really getting me. If Verizon fixes that issue I would be able to live with the other issues. I love the service except for the nag. It's a real killer to try and watch a show and the nag comes up.

Multi Room DVR will not record...only has option to get "Reminder "

Hi,
I am new to the forum and we just got verizon fios installed. We have a multi room DVR along with 2 HD set top boxes. When you go to the menu and hit Record to record a show, it says "you can't set a reminder for a show in progress". I don't want a reminder, I want to record it.
Also, when you try to set up the DVR to routinely record a weekly show, it only lets you set a reminder. Again, I don't want a reminder, I want to record.
I have tried this with the MR DVR and also the 2 HD set top boxes just to make sure I was using the right one. They all say the same thing.
Why can't I record onto my DVR? Please help!
Thanks.

You can only setup recordings from the DVR (QIP6416 or QIP7216). At this time, it is not possible to create or delete recordings remotely from the other set-top boxes.
The reminder feature is only found on the non-DVR boxes. Only the QIP6416 and QIP7216 DVRs offer the option to record. The model number is written on the front of the box.

Multi room dvr not working in other rooms

My mr dvr is not working in any of my other rooms. It has never worked. I just don't have the time to sit on the phone with tech support.
I have 3 other sd stb in other rooms and I have programs recorded on the dvr that are not in H. So shouldn't i be able to watch these in the other rooms?
When I look at my Fios TV info online it states this "Your STB record cannot be found."
any help would be appreciated
Solved!
Go to Solution.

It is listed on my bill under TV additional services. " home media dvr- high definition" is this just for the actual DVR unit? Do I have to pay for the unit and then pay an additional amount for special programing? If so why wouldn't I have opted for the regular DVR instead of the Multi room dvr? I guess I will be spending most of my night on the phone with verizon!!!!
thanks for your help.

Recurring Multi-Room DVR problem

Hello.
My multi-room DVR (new - installed in April) is repeatedly having issues lately. Once about two weeks ago we turned it on and, though the FiOS live TV option was working fine, the DVR button brought us to a screen saying something about how the multiroom DVR is unavailable and to try unplugging it. There were no recordings. We did unplug it and leave it unplugged for about 5 minutes. When we plugged it back in it was working again but no programs or scheduled recordings were saved. It was like starting from scratch and we were frustrated, but we thought the problem was solved.
Since then the same thing has happened three more times. The third time I live chatted with a Verizon support tech and she ran some remote tests and reset the machine and it worked. The saved and scheduled recordings were back too, but one scheduled recording just hadn't been recorded (probably because the issue was happening with the DVR all afternoon without us knowing and so it wasn't able to record. Today it happened again (for the fourth time) and I went on FiOS support troubleshooting. A reset of the machine worked, and our couple of recordings that we have had since the last time this happened are still there.
So the problem seems to be getting better. But, I'm still frustrated because I don't understand what the underlying problem is and how to fix it. I don't want to be doing this troubleshooting every day. Especially because if it malfunctions while I'm at work or, even worse, away for a week it won't record my shows. What's the point of having a DVR if I can't be sure that my shows will be saved for me to watch at my convenience?
Does anyone know what might be wrong with the machine or its settings and how I can make sure this doesn't keep happening on a regular basis?
Thanks,
Emily
