DirecTV Launches DIRECTV2PC Beta With CyberLink

Posted on Wednesday, October 15, 2008 by MegaZone

DirecTV is launching a beta of DIRECTV2PC using software from CyberLink. This feature allows you to stream content from a DirecTV Plus HD DVR (HR20/21/22) to a Windows PC over a LAN. Unfortunately, while the page indicates the software is available now, the download page on CyberLink’s site is currently returning a 404.

Once the software is available, users will be able to stream content, in full HD resolution, from their DVRs to a Windows PC – either recordings or live TV. The PC software provides the same UI as available on the DVR. The software is, or will be, free, so keep an eye on the page if you’re interested. Hopefully they’ll fix the download link soon.
