does directv recognize this receiver?

It depends on if the receiver is leased out or not. If it is under a lease to another customer then no u can't use it. just call directv and give then the number on the back of receiver and they will tell u if its useable .

on the back of the unit, there is a serial number and an R number (I think). have the seller send you a pix of the back of the unit. You will need those 2 numbers to contact Directv and they can tell you if this is a unit that can be activated.

I use this with my DirecTV setup, so I assume you could do the same with Dish, although I can't speak authoritatively on this matter.

I have DirectTv and it worked perfectly fine for mine. It does a great job and was better than a more expensive solution.

I bought this equipment for my daughter's bedroom but it was not compatible with my DirecTV satellite. You mayhave to call and confirm that the box will work before you buy it. Sorry I cannot give a better answer...

what receiver model do you have? The newest one does not show RGB output, only VGA, HDMI and the modern modes. If your receiver has an RGB output, then it should work. Check your cable connections make sure they are tight, and color codes matching.

Yes, provided you have a wireless router in the house or access to a Wi-Fi network. When you connect this to your DirecTV receiver, it will look for available wireless networks and then you enter the security key. Really very simple to hook up and get working!

Yes. My DirecTV receivers are all five years-old but work flawlessly with the IR repeater.

Has anyone tried using a generic belkin or something (not Panasonic ) , to see if the tv will recognize it?

I am not totally familiar with the Directv remote but my guess is that it probably does not have codes to control Denon soundbars.Eric C.World Wide Stereo

Sorry, Josh. I can state for a fact that this unit will NOT work with Directv. I had them and dropped them due increasing price increases. Tivo units will work ONLY with cable systems (I.E. verizon, comcast). Good luck. Mo

The problem is probably signal detection by either your tv or cable box. In newer electronics they use DLNA which means that all your electronics recognize each other's circuitry. Since this device is intended to merely be an analog re-route, chances are that this feature is more than this device is actually able to do. I was hoping that it would be have been able to recognize my DVR also, but depending on the models that you're using some cable or satellite providers may be able to furnish you the component that it is compatible with your set up. But as anything it may cost you. I went to my local electronics store and that was the answer I received from the technician. If you have any more questions, please feel free to ask. Thanks.

Nope. This one only works with Digital Cable and Fios. I believe DirecTV has a box available with TiVo though.

This remote will work with any DirecTV box. You only have to go into the DirecTV "remote" settings under the MENU to change the frequency from "IR" to "RF".
