Scientific-Atlanta Shows Multi-Room DVR Server

Scientific-Atlanta previewed a Multi-Room DVR that enables consumers to access their recorded content on multiple television sets within the home through existing in-home coax wiring and using existing Scientific-Atlanta Explorer digital set-tops.



Scientific-Atlanta's Explorer 8300 MR-DVR serves as an in-home media server that can be simultaneously accessed by up to 3 other, non-DVR Explorer digital interactive set-tops in the home. In total, individuals in up to 4 different rooms of the home could be watching different recorded programs or in fact, they could be watching the same program, but time shifted at different points in the show.



Time Warner Cable is testing the Multi-Room DVR. http://www.scientificatlanta.com/
