said by ffink20001:I have the Directtv HD TIVO Modle right before they ditched Tivo. Do I need this BBC converter also to get the new channels?
The HR10-250 is not an MPEG-4 box and will need to be replaced with the HR20 to receive the new HD channels in September. I am waiting to upgrade to the HR20 as I love the HD Tivo and I'm not a big fan of the HR20, although it is getting better with the software updates.
