General Description of the DirecTV DVR R10:
DirecTV decided to stop having hardware branded by third parties, while still contracting with those same companies to manufacture the equipment. The second result of this change was the DirecTV-branded R10 standard definition DVR. While this unit is not significantly different from the second generation DirecTV DVRs made and branded by Hughes, Philips, Samsung, and RCA, it does have two changes: the power cord is grounded (the only TiVo DVR to date with a grounded power cord) and the unit has a red 'reset' button in the access card door area for clearing satellite tuner problems. The numbering scheme of this model led many to mistakenly believe that the next model, the R15, was another TiVo DVR, when, in fact, it has a totally different interface than the R10. This has caused a lot of confusion over the years. The R10 was the last new DirecTV + TiVo DVR to be produced as part of the partnership between the two companies.
