I switched to the Spectrum 200 box which does handle series recording correctly, only to learn that it does not support Caller ID on TV.
So back to the store and was assured the 8742 HDC could do both of these, Nope. It has the series recording defect. Was then told the DCX3510-M would solve my problems. Wrong again. It has the series recording defect and doesn't support Caller ID on TV.
Is there a DVR box that provides both?
Hi Steve,
Caller ID is being rolled out gradually to the World "No Clock" Boxes. It may not have hit your area or box yet. In all cases, users may have to wait up to 24 hours for Caller ID on TV to show on your box. It will not be instantaneous. Caller ID on TV requires a Spectrum CATV/ Spectrum Voice Landline subscription.) Caller ID will work with all clock boxes as long as you have CATV and Spectrum landline phone.
What do you mean be "Series defect?"
