RVU enables whole-home DVR for DIRECTV

DIRECTV is making it possible for subscribers to enjoy DVR or even HD DVR on all televisions in the home, using the RVU server/client approach to harness thin client IP set-top boxes or connected TVs. Here, Alan Smith, Senior Product Manager at DIRECTV, outlines the benefits of using RVU to deliver whole-home services that ensure not only consistent services in every room but a consistent and familiar user interface. The RVU Alliance is now working on version 2.0 of the standard, which could provide advanced graphics options.
