To start off, I have a DirecTV receiver with Tivo built in. It's not one of the newer dvr's, it's the old one that actually uses the phone line to get scheduling instead of the satellite, which is what the current dvr's do.
Here's my scenario and question: My dad and I are both college football nuts and our team is playing Thursday night. He is heading off on a weekend vacation to the beach and won't be able to watch the game. When he comes back home, can I take my receiver to his house and hook it up to his tv so he can watch the game on my tivo receiver. He does have directv, as well, if that matters. In my head, I'm thinking I should be able just to connect my receiver straight into his tv and watch the game, but the only problem would be my receiver is going to reset and reboot. Is this going to cause any problems with his current service?
