Digital video recorders, or DVRs, allow people to record television and watch it back at their convenience. They work similarly to VCRs, except they don’t require any external equipment: All recording and playing back is done from a hard drive installed inside the television utility box. Satellite television provider Dish Network is among the providers that offer DVR as part of service. There are several things to keep in mind when choosing a DVR and getting the most out of it.
