Need help recording three shows at the same time

I have the FiOS DVR, and have a problem this TV season.  There are 3 shows that we watch that are on at the same time.  if we are home that night, we can record two on the DVR and watch the other in another room.  Not ideal, but we can handle it.  But if we are out, we are hosed.  I have an old series 1 Tivo that I would think I could factor in here....which I could timer record on a different TV.  Any way to do it on my regular TV?  Not sure how I could hook up the Tivo with the DVR and the rest of it.
Thanks!

I have a similar setup with a Replay.
You will need to get a Verizon Digital Adapter for $3.99 per Month and an IR Blaster for your Tivo.
Connect the Digital Adapter (DCT-700) to the FIOS Coax (May need to use a Splitter).  Connect the Composite Out cables from the DCT-700 to the Tivo.  Connect the IR Blaster from the Tivo to the front of the DCT-700.  Configure the Tivo and tell it you have FIOS Cable and Digital Adapter.  You may need to find the right codes to use to control the FIOS box from the Tivo.
Once you get it configured you will be able to tell the Tivo to record the 3rd program and it will switch the box to the channel and record it.  If the box is near your other Verizon STBs you will need to hide it or cover the IR Sensor so that the remote for the main STB does not control the Digital Adapter.
As an added bonus you can connect the Coax Out from the DCT-700 to your Main TV if it has PIP and now you have a 2nd input source to make PIP work.

  • I need help moving two objects at the same time

    I am try to create a code that will move a mini map to where the user wants in a game. As a test I created a square and converted it to a movie and named it sq. Then I created another square and converted it to a button and named it bt. I also made bt half the size of sq and placed bt at the center of sq. I then created a drag code which like this:
    sq.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, startDragging); // Start dragging square by user
    sq.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, stopDragging); // Stop dragging square by user
    function stopDragging(evt:MouseEvent):void
    sq.stopDrag();
    bt.x=sq.x;
    bt.y=sq.y;
    // this moved bt to sq(x,y) when mousebutton was released
    function startDragging(evt:MouseEvent):void
    sq.startDrag();
    bt.x=sq.x;
    bt.y=sq.y;
    // this moved bt to sq(x,y) when mouse button was pushed down
    I am trying to get sq and bt to move smootly together, but as it stands right now it just jumps from place to place.
    I have tried looking for some kind of linking code in abode help search, however, I am not sure want to look for exactlly

    The mouseDown and mouseUp events are single action events, so the button will only change positions on either the mouseDown or the mouseUp events. If you add a mouseMove event listener, then you can change the location of the button every time the square moves. Alternately, you could use an enterframe event to change the location of the button relative to the square. Try this code:
    sq.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, startDragging); // Start dragging square by user
    sq.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, stopDragging); // Stop dragging square by user
    sq.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE,dragButton);
    function stopDragging(evt:MouseEvent):void
    sq.stopDrag();
    function startDragging(evt:MouseEvent):void
    sq.startDrag();
    function dragButton(evt:MouseEvent):void {
              bt.x = sq.x;
              bt.y = sq.y;

  • Help with recording 2 tracks at the same time

    Basically I recently purchased an Audio Interface (BEHRINGER XENYX Q802 USB) and I'm having trouble recording multiple tracks at the same time while using it.
    When I set up 2 MONO tracks in my DAW (one using input 1, the other using input 2) all that happens is that I get a recording of one mic over both tracks in my DAW.
    This is probably a beginner post and I have looked it up on YouTube etc. but it just doesn't work for me... Maybe it has something to do with my Interface, but any help will be much appreciated.

    Hi Pancenter,
    Unfortunately I don't have the manual as I purchased it from a friend who failed to provide me with the Manual.
    But thank you for answering as this was what I needed to do.
    Many thanks
    Olie.

  • Can i have the orange firefox symbol AND the firefox menu bar showing at the same time?? and how??

    hi, i just downloaded firefox 16 and would like to know, can i have the orange firefox symbol thats at the top left corner of the page, AND the firefox menu bar showing at the same time??? i'm new to this, and old, and hope i can do this..thanks for your help...joan albert

    Here are two "Menu" add-ons which alter the Menu bar into one button.
    With this one you can move the new "Menu" button into the Customize Palette, and then when you hit the '''Alt''' key the "Menu will open down from the Titlebar on the left. Won't affect the action of the Firefox button when you de-select the Menu Bar.<br />

    This one I haven't used recently, but you can play with it to see what is possible. <br />

  • Can Express 9 play and record multiple instruments at the same time?

    I have logic express 9 and was told with my interface that I can play and record different instruments at the same time on Express 9. Is this true because I have spent a long time trying to figure out how.

    Hi,
    to record multiple Inputs at a time, open up the appropriate number of audio tracks. Now for each track, select the correct Input in the Channelstrip.
    Now, ARM all these tracks for recording by clicking the little red R in the track header or channelstrip. Now if you hit record, all these tracks should record simultaneously their respective inputs.
    All other existing tracks should playback while recording.

  • Recording 4 microphones at the same time to GarageBand?

    I'm wanting to record 4 microphones at the same time to Garageband on the iPad (4th Gen) for a 4-person podcast I'll be working on. I'm wondering if there's an inexpensive solution ($275 and under) to do that.
    I'd like to be able to record each mic to a different track so I can work on them in post. I'd also like to be able to attach a MIDI keyboard for stuff unrelated to the podcast itself.
    So far, I've been looking at these devices which all seem to have their own caveats:
    Alesis IO Hub (only two XLR inputs)
    Alesis IO Mix (no USB)
    Focusrite 18i8 (a little over the price I wanted to pay)
    Everything else I've looked at is either more expensive or has too few XLR inputs. If anyone out there can lend their expertise and advice to what my options are that would be great.
    Thanks much,
    Ray

    Well, you can, but it is pretty darn expensive and requires quite a bit of hardware.

  • How can i record 2 sources at the same time ?

    Hello. I am a piano tutorial guy on youtube and am always trying to improve on the quality of my vids and so i go tan HD cam to record the videos in HD (canon HV30) . I also have this little app called "midikeys" and all it does is show a piano layout on the screen and the keys i press on my keyboard , light up on the on-screen keyboard. I want to know how to record my camera and that "midikeys" onscreen piano at the same time . i have a make shift workaround to doing this but it makes things a whole lot more complicated . i basically record the cam by imp[orting the live feed, and at teh same time a have quicklime recording the "midikeys" on the screen . is there a way to do it together ? thanks

    Welcome Pianohero to the  iMovie boards..
    .. is there a way to do it together ?
    I dare to say: no way..
    the hurdle to go is that 'keys visualizer' ..
    as far as I understand, it does show 'live'.. and doesn't create quicktime movies, right?
    so, you would need a 'screengrabber' tool as SnapZ or - better, but $$ - Screenflow.
    such a screengrabber would create 'video files' of the action taking place on your monitor.
    in a second step, you have to convert these files into something usefull in iMovie.
    third step, you need an editing software which allows 'picture in picture' (=two video tracks). this an option in iMHD6 plus a plugin from geethree.com, or in iM09 or in FinalCutExpress ..
    if anyone has a less complicated workflow..

  • JFM recording and streaming at the same time

    Hello Everyone,
    I was hoping someone could help me with using a webcam device for sending and recording at the same time.
    At this moment I'm only able to record. I tried to make another processor, and put the input of the streaming processor
    to the one that is recording, but problem is the streaming processor outputs not a streaming format. If I could stream
    with RTP I could embed a player in a website and view from there, while recording at the same time.
    Could somebody explain to me what do to here, or provide me a snippet of code, I really need this to work.
    I created this code, but this only records.

    Take a look at the following example. It demonstrates how to do 2 things with the same input (namely view and record)

  • How do i record 2 tracks at the same time.

    i use a mixer to hook my mics into garageband, what i want to do is have 2 separate tracks and have them able to record at the same time. ive made separate tracks for each mic but i can only highlight one at a time to record so i need to figure out how i can have both tracks highlighted and giving me levels. if anyone can shed some light on this for me that would be great. i get the feel like theres a simple solution to this.

  • Need to dial 5 extensions at the same time in case of emergency

    Hi, our company uses Communications Manager 8.6.2 and has a requirement which I haven't been able to fill using normal methods.
    We need to call 5 mobile numbers at the same time when an emergency exists at our location.  Only one of the 5 called numbers has to respond to the call for help in our 3 km long, 2 kilometer wide company site.
    Thought 1 line number with remote destinations would work but this doesn't seem to handle multiple mobile numbers well. Strangely, it doesn't ring all lines at the same time. It will ring max 2 mobile phones at the same time in our test. There were enough free lines on the PMX to dial out to all phones during the test period.
    Doesn anyone have this situation and how did you handle it?
    Thanks,
    Randy

    Hi,  Thanks for the quick responce,  unfortunately we dont have contact center installed. Actually we would like one DN number for these 5 people, because these people are continually moving around their respective areas, there is no physical local endpoint.
    When the number is dialed it should ring out to the 5 mobile numbers, when one answers the others should stop ringing.
    We could in theory install the uccx solution but this will cost some time to get up and running and at present we do not have any additional need for uccx.

  • Recording and listening at the same time?

    So i'm recording using a usb micrphone, which works fine, i'd like to know how to hear all the instruments through my headphones and record at the same time, so i can actually hear when i need to come in to sing! any ideas?

    you're going to have to provide more details on your setup, because that is how GB works.
    you'd have to purposefully mute or solo tracks in order to not hear everything playing in your project

  • How do I record AND monitor at the same time?

    I'm having trouble while trying to record from my XLR connected microphone. I have the mic going through a USB preamp and my speakers are outputting directly through my Power Mac. I cannot seem to be able to record at the same time I monitor. I can't playback my recordings without first changing the audio setting to Built in Audio from Mobile Preamp. I swear I could do this with Logic 7. Can't I have the monitor be going through the computer and the input going through my preamp at the same time? Thanks!
    Appi

    Logic can see two or more audio interfaces at once, but it has to be set up in the Audio midi set up program on your mac, as an aggregate device using your built in audio and your USB device. Then you can choose the aggregate device in your Logic>preferences>audio>driver. After you choose it, you should be able to access all inputs and outputs at once

  • Need help renaming a file to the same name as folder.

    I am looking to loop through a directory full of folders each containing one file. I am wanting to change each file name in each folder to the same name as the folder. The code compiles fine, it just never actually does anything. Here is my code.
    import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
    import java.io.File;
    public class filing
         public static void main (String [ ] args)
              File dir = new File("C:\\testing");
              File file;
              File cf;
              String dirs[ ] = dir.list();
              String folderName = "";
              if (dirs == null)
                   JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Directory does not exist", "I can't find it", JOptionPane.WARNING_MESSAGE);
              else
                   for (int i=0; i<dirs.length; i++)
                        folderName = dirs[ i ];
                        file = new File("C:\\testing\\"+folderName);
                        String changeFile[ ] = file.list();
                        cf=new File(changeFile[0]);
                        cf.renameTo(new File("C:\\testing\\"+folderName+".txt"));
              System.exit(0);
    }

    Nevermind. I figured it out.
    Instead of cf=new File (changeFile[0]);
    I added cf = new File ("C:\\testing\\"+folderName+"\\"+changeFile[0]);
    thanks anyway!

  • Brand new to PS and need help already. Is catalog the same as album?

    I received Elements7 as a gift several months ago. I loaded it onto my computer, and an album was created, but I never learned to use the program. I now have the Classroom in a Book, and am at a standstill at the very beginning. It says to go to the organize section, then to click on file and to create a new catalog. I do not see a catalog section (or a menu bar with file on it for that matter). All of the pictures in the book do not look like what I have on my computer either. Is a catalog the same as an album? Is there a way to get a menu/task bar that I may be missing?

    To see the menu, please read this: http://www.johnrellis.com/psedbtool/photoshopelements-6-7-faq.htm#The_Organizers_Menu_Bar_ doesnt_show
    A catalog is a database pointing to all of your photos. Albums are a selection and arrangement of some of your photos. They are not the same.
