The DVR-810H is always the DVR-810H, my old DVL-909 was the DVL-909 everywhere in the world it was sold. I’ve never seen that done with Pioneer.

They may be positioning the 615H as lower cost model under the 810H. I have a lot of Pioneer gear and the numbering doesn’t always make a clear progression.

You'd think it would be like 915H or something. If it IS a new box, it’s weird that they’d come out with a lower model number. You’d think it would be like 915H or something.

This is the first mentioned I've seen - and the *only* one I can find - of the DVR-615H. Sounds like a new box is coming out soon.These are all standalone boxes - DirecTV handles those boxes, including the HDTV DTV box.
