Can I transfer my current DVR shows to my new DVR
No.
Settings and series only.
But if you are just upgrading, you can keep dvr for a couple of weeks and watch thre shows on it.
Just disconnect from coax and connect output to a second input of tv.
Just make sure it doesnt lose power or you wont be able to watch anymore.
Keep in mind that verizon views dvr as temp storage not long term storage.
