Want to share programs with friends to watch on their DVD player or listen on a MP3 or iPod? GEOSATpro is partnering with VideoReDo software to provide a solution for enjoying recorded satellite programming on a PC, burning DVDs, and ripping WAV audio files for playback on a MP3 or iPod player. Video ReDo offers software for editing recorded programming to eliminate commercials or even transferring home videos for playback with your DVR1100c. Several software packages are available for MAC to view, convert or rip DVDs. We have tested iSkySoft software for Macs and have found them to also work very well.  (Please contact the software providers or your computer equipment provider for product support.

No long wait times for the receiver to lock onto a signal. A convenient signal button on the remote control allows instant access to the signal meter at anytime. A signal beeper provides audible verification of satellite acquisition.

The DVR1100c has an exciting new feature that automatically updates the receiver with additional channels and adds new features as they become available via the satellite!
