Dual Dvr Issues

How do I set the dual DVR to record on the TV that I want? When I set something to record, I am given no option for what TV I want it to record to.  As a result, everything records on my daughter's TV rather than the one I want it to record to.

I'd be happy to help you with your question, shoppinmomma!  How you can set the receiver to record on the TV you want is by pressing Menu on the remote to pull up the Main Menu. selecting Preferences, selecting Record Plus, and then changing the designated TV in the right scroll column.

 

Hope that helps!
