Hello There

I'm interested in finding out if anyone has dealt with multiple DVR Dish network receivers being controlled with a pronto 7500. Its seems that the receivers can be addressed by changing the remote ID and the receiver it belongs to. In this kind of particular set up, 4 DVRs will be accessed by one pronto 7500. The concern is that i want to control one receiver at a time without disturbing the other 3 receivers. I believe this can be accomplished by changing the IDs. Has any one try-ed this before. By the way, the reason for all the DVRs is the all the HD recording that my client wants. Its seems that HD recording takes up more memory space. help is really appeciated.

If you can change the remote code used you can have 4 seperate devices for each receiver.

I'd probably have 4 identical pages 1 for each receiver with either a pseudo drop down menu (a copy of the page with a menu superimposed and page jumps to give the effect of a menu) or buttons with page jumps to apperar to change the receiver being used without appearing to change page. Maybe some sort of radio button graphic at the top with a selected graphic on the appropriate pages to display which box is selected

As far as actually controlling the boxs I've no experience cos I'm in the UK.

A lot of kit will allow multiple remote commands (my sony amp springs to mind) which allows controlling multiple components individually. If the PVR offers 2 different codes you may have to use an RF receiver to control 2 of them
