Re: [TWC] Record more than two shows?

I thought with whole home dvr one could record 4 shows at once. At least that's what the commercials are touting.

That must mean that it records four shows on two boxes.

I was thinking that in the case of this particular box, it uses a CableCard in the back. Shouldn't it be firmware upgradable to support more tuners?

Yes it can. But you have to sign up for the whole home service, even if you don't need it.
