Enabling DVR Service
Introduction
This chapter describes two different methods for enabling DVR
service: a global method and a package method. When enabled using a
global method, all DVRs are enabled for DVR service. When using the
package method, only the DVRs that have been authorized for DVR
service with a DVR package are enabled for DVR service.
To use DVR service, subscribers must have any of the following Cisco
set-top boxes: Explorer 8000, 8000HD, 8240, 8240HD, 8300, 8300HDC,
or 8300MR Home Entertainment Servers. In addition, current software
must be installed on these devices. Contact Cisco for information on
the latest software release.
