Cogeco deploys Whole Home DVR service in Quebec, Ontario


MONTREAL – Cogeco Cable's digital customers in Quebec and in Ontario now have access to its Whole Home DVR service that was originally announced back in August. The Whole Home DVR allows subscribers to program and record shows from any connected TV in your home, to take advantage of and share recorded content between all connected TVs and to stop viewing a recorded show in one room, and pick it up where you left off in another.

With Whole Home DVR all recorded content is accessible via any compatible HD receiver in the home. Customers can watch, record and pause live TV or their recorded shows, from any connected TV in their home.

Cogeco says its HD television solution, which supports up to three television sets, is ideal for customers who have several television sets in their home and for those with varied viewing patterns.

The Whole Home DVR is capable of recording up to six HD shows simultaneously, while three other HD recordings can be played (for viewing only). The same recording can be viewed by all the televisions at once (up to a maximum of 3 TVs).
