Re: Bonding.

First I think the whole house DVR is fantastic. Currently we have to do the same thing with a multiplexer. Wonder how they send a HD signal to the remote TV?

But, 2HD+2SD+VOIP isn't enough for our family now. We very often are either recording or watching 4 HD feeds at one time. If they allow OTA HD recording like Sat then it might solve some issues.

They don't. They send a Video over IP stream from the remote DVR to the local STB (non-DVR). Then the local STB sends it to the TV it's attached to.

Yep. U-verse is not a premium, top-of-the-line, does-everything-you-want, most-HD-channels, best-quality service -- at all. I think DirecTV owns that space.

U-verse is more a competes-reasonably-well-for-most-cable-customers service.

Re: Bonding.

So I guess that's a no on the OTA recording?

Is that Video over IP stream from the remove DVR via Cat5 or your internal phone lines?

Right, the boxes do not have ATSC tuners.

It's over your home IP network. Depending on how this is wired, it can be Cat5/6 or HPNA over coax. Not phone wiring.

AT&T is using HPNA. Info on that and specs on the Moto set-tops for U-verse WHDVR here: »connectedhome2go.com/2008/08/29/···service/
