Comcast Digital Video Recorder (DVR)

What is DVR?

DVR stands for Digital Video Recorder.  With a DVR system, you can control your TV to act like a VCR.  This technology allows you to rewind, pause and record TV shows without the presence of a VCR.  You can even rewind live broadcastings and later fast-forward them to being live once again.
