Can you pause live TV with this DVR?

No. Program must be recorded first. However, the chasing playback function can be used to pause a program that is currently being recorded.

If you have exit hdmi for tv in DVR I'm pretty sure you can. Just buy it if doesn't work just send it back. In Amazone they are really good to refund you money back. Good luck.

If it's a DVD or Bluray and you've set the remote up for that device, then yes, you can *pause* the program. If you're referring to On-Demand or a streaming video service such as Netflix, then I can't say for sure.

Correct. There are two outlets on the end that are not controlled (always on) so they can be used for the DVR. Note that there is a delay (half minute or so) after the "master" item is turned off before the "controlled" items go off.

Yes, you can record from TV as long as the show you are trying to record is not protected.

I haven't investigated that yet, but you can "teach" your DVR remote to control volume, mute, on/off. That way, you can technically turn both on at the same time. I basically use the DVR remote to turn the rest of my system on, and then use the mute (or volume) button on the ZVox remote to turn the volume on. But, as noted above, you can use the DVR remote for both. Sounds more convoluted than it is. I barely think about it nowadays --- it all seems so intuitive and fuss free. The manual that comes with the ZVox is a model of clarity and thoroughness; whoever is making this is conscious of the fact that people need better manuals than the ones that come with most electronic goods these days. Hope this helps. I haven't investigated that yet, but you can "teach" your DVR remote to control volume, mute, on/off. That way, you can technically turn both on at the same time.

Yes; however, MOXI no longer supports this unit which renders the DVR useless. Essentially you'll have a fancy tuner.

Yes, in either of 2 ways:1) If you programmed a recording, you can begin watching before it ends2) While watching live TV, it remembers prior 30 minutes automatically. You can pause for up to 30 minutes and resume. You can also rewind if you missed something. Just don't get more than 30 minutes behind in "Live" mode.

You can, but the auto switching function only works when boththings are off and one gets turned on. Since I doubt you turn off your DVR you would have to manually press a button on the pigtsil to switch sources.You really need to plug in two things that get turned off most of the time like an Xbox and a blue ray player. Then it works perfect.

It can be controlled by dvr if your dvr supports RS-485. Otherwise pickup a cheap RS-485 controller and you are all set.

If you are playing a video of course you can pause it and resume it. If you are talking to do that while you are recording a video I did not see that option.

I have never used the pause on the Aquos remote. I have only ever used the DirectTV remote to pause a DVD. Sorry!

Absolutely. That is exactly how I use it. The Menu button replaces the Xfinity button. Note: When watching recorded TV use the Play button for both Play and Pause. Use the Exit button to Stop your recorded TV program as the Stop button will not do it. However, the Stop button works on DVD's, Blu-Ray Disks, and when using things like Netflix.

When the show is streaming, clicking on the screen brings up an menu sort of like it would on the actual DVR. There is a CC button that you click to toggle it on and off.

No, not live content... But it will record... And of course, you can pause and rewind your recorded content.

As others have said, it depends on the DVR. Usually if the DVR can be connected to a network, you can make the necessary adjustments on your router (e.g. port forwarding) make make the DVR "internet visible". There are dozens of free apps for viewing live video streams.

I don't believe you can record tv shows or have a pause and rewind of live TV with the Apple TV as it relies on you getting the shows from the Internet. So to answer your question you will need the TIVO for the DVR features.
