[QUOTE="enricong, post: 1059939, member: 84747"] I briefly looked through the SHEF protocol and saw a section for DVR commands where you can get the playlist and play shows. However, it looks like the section is deprecated. If there were simple commands to play a show, it would reduce the complexity alot. Sure, it would be simpler to get more receivers but then you have to pay an additional monthly fee ($6/mo) for each receiver in perpetuity. In addition, for people like myself that are out of contract, I would be forced to renew to get additional receivers. It just seems like a waste to have an HD DVR that can record 2 shows at once and in order to get the same functionality (with mediaportal) I have to get another receiver (and capture device) and start paying an additional $6/mo.
